Stating what is obvious to 99% of the community here. OSX is based on a BSD. The OS is a customized UNIX with the GUI and Mac stuff built on top of it.**
The new UNIX subsystem in Win10 is just that, a subsystem. Still being fleshed out, btw.
**side note: look at what Apple did on top of that BSD. I think that's an example of what a LINUX could be with enough attention and development time.
Oh yeah.... I really love it when I go to a site and try to create a password with punctuation, and it gets kicked because the site doesn't support it.
Really????
I'm talking about some major sites... financial institutions too. Scary and unacceptable.
Reason # 1 to not use stock apple earbuds : They make it look like you have an Ipod in your pocket. Reason # 2 to not use stock apple earbuds : They sound like complete crap.
Yeah yeah I know we're talking about mp3's and that the iPod audio out isn't the highest quality sound wise. But I swear by old school, black, Walkman style headphones, they look non iPod like, and sound great. A decent pair of Sony's set you back $45, and last forever.
(FWIW, the headphones that came with the first couple of original Walkmans sounded like crap too..... )
Which is one reason why Spaceballs was so darned funny. Rik Moranis as Darth Helmet... almost the exact opposite of a James Earl Jones voice and style wise.
I really would. Last night's episode. I just checked iTunes. It's not there.
Hello!!!! ?? HBO???? I'm willing to give you a couple of bucks... even to 'rent' a stream for a day. I'd very much like to watch your show, without subscribing to your channel.
Get it? I have money. I want to spend it, by giving it to you to watch your show. But you don't give me the option to do so. You lose. And because I can't do it now, and be able to talk to other viewers about the premere this week, I'm resentful and will be less likely to buy your DVD when it does come out next year. Why should i buy it then? Season 3 will be old news at that time....
I've observed that my Garmin GPS is never more than 2 or 3 MPH different than what my cars speedometer is measuring. Even when I'm jamming it at 85MPH.
Perfectly acceptable difference IMHO, given that the GPS is coallating the satelite signals on the fly.

Indeed - a fantastic episode. If you're a TOS fan, this one is well worth checking out. A few 'holy shit' plot moments too.
Who cares? They are just a hair metal band who are well past their prime.

I'm not as smart as I thought. Forgot about the sligs.
Growing meat in their Axlotl tanks......
The Gholas... They're made of meat!
If I had points I'd mod you through the roof. Great page!!
>>He made plenty of money." He should have stayed in school for the betterment of humanity.
With all that money he made, he is indeed working towards the betterment of humanity.
Indian sweatshops. Cheap ass commodity labor.
Wipro too. I'm not surprised. We know that Wipro is a shit company, in my shop. That's why they're on the prohibited vendor list. Fuck em.
JMS,
If you had the chance, would you go back and do stories about the last great war, Valen, and the role that B4 actually played in the series history?
B4. I think i get it now. :)
Also, the future that was touched on in the last episodes, would you ever want to flesh that out?
And what DID happen to JS when he died and went beyond The Rim?
PS: Thank you for the finest show in Sci Fi history.
What they aren't showing us are the huge half mechanical demons with rocket launchers grafted onto their arms........
I can use some peace and quiet. Get away from the phones ringing, users nagging, and CAR DEALERS TALKING IN MY FACE ABOUT $399 A MONTH on the radio.
You'd be surprised how desperate drug users can be when they need a fix.
>>Why would people intentionally let their dog piss on your grass?
Because some people are selfish, just want to get their dog walk over with, and frankly don't give a shit.
Flies man, flies. And it smells like shit.
I keep the dogs of my lawn with a few liberally spread mothballs. Works like a charm, and they are dirt cheap.
And when I feel like being a prick about it, I'll put down chili powder just before dog walking time.
It's amazing what marinading for 24 hours will do to a meat.

I for one would like to know when i can 3d print a buggy whip.
I really would. Last night's episode. I just checked iTunes. It's not there.

Guy from the NYC area here.
There is no such hill on the NJ turnpike. You'd need something of a small mountain road/steep hill to accelerate a car an extra 30MPH.
The NJ turnpike is well designed with gradual inclines. No steep downhills. FWIW.
/. - everything has changed here. Even the MS bashers have no teeth any more.
I was hoping that someone would have hit my meatball out of the park, when I asked what was lacking in VB.
Sigh. Remember when you used to be able to have a good tech talk here?
Perl uses sub .
Using their new GUI of course.
