I was soliciting input from people who know what they are talking about, not from today's lets-bash-x crowd.
Looks like that ideal went out the window:
The Windows admins I've encountered are hopeless when it comes to DNS (blaming every strange issue they encounter on DNS, for example). Best current practice over here is to never have Active Directory and public DNS interact. The Windows types can break Active Directory all they want, and the real DNS service is managed by people with a clue.
The same thing happened to me. I had two tabs open and I wasn't even using it when I felt the system slowing down and heard the hard disk grinding. 1.1 GB of RAM in the VM.
Employees at their home holodeck would feel exactly as though they were at the office. Those who physically commute to the office would feel the same way. The residual self images of all the employees logged in to all the holodecks at any given moment would be mapped onto the big office holodeck as well as onto all the smaller holodecks at all the employees' homes.
This idea will break down as soon as an employee decides it's more comfortable to work in the nude and there's a system failure in the clothing module.
Even assuming you mean 30 MHz instead of Hz, 64 MB of RAM is out of line for such a machine. A 33 MHz server (say a really old 486 Proliant) usually had 16-32 MB of RAM. A 33 MHz desktop was lucky to have 8-16. We're talking $50/MB here.
Logical conclusion from 1) and 2) is that we're pretty much screwed and back to some kind of feudalism.
Use hyperbole much? The point of capitalism is that the market DOES decide. I'm sure you'd prefer an oligarchy of smart people such as yourself, right? And you have made the assumption that the the public believes that high CO2 emissions are affecting the environment-- and that this is more important than other factors-- just because you do. Tell me: exactly what companies should a consumer invest in if he wishes to use fewer fossil fuels? Many people can only buy power made in a coal-burning plant because environmentalists opposed nuclear plants (and sometimes wind farms), not because of a lack of competition.
Actually, I think the problem with western societies is that people should be taking full responsibility for themselves by 18, but they aren't allowed to (or aren't forced to, however you prefer to see it. Sure, you're an "adult" at 18 in the USA, unless you want to drink (21), rent a car (businesses are allowed to refuse those under 25), view pornography (inconsistent; some places seem to require 21, some 18), or own a handgun (21 in some states). If progressives are interested in civil rights, how about attacking ageism?
I picked up a copy of Open Season distributed by Sony. It wouldn't rip with Acid Rip on Linux. I called them to complain. They provided a replacement for no charge without the additional copy protection. They asked what player I was having trouble with. I flat told them. I hope it is properly added to their market research. I told them flat out that it didn't work on my Linux machine, and wouldn't rip with Acid Rip to my media server so I couldn't play it on my TV or play on an iPod or Zen.
That Sony was willing and able to resolve this issue is mind blowing. It still raises the question why they don't just put non-DRM stuff on the shelves in the first place.
A public question gets a public answer. Yes, because a lie is a lie. And unlike the liars above, the liar who modded me down and the liars at MSNBC, the truth is that SHE WAS NO LONGER AN OPERATIVE.
I know there were people using them in 2002. The company I was contracting with at the time had a PDP-11 in their disaster recovery facility for a client.
All this over a CIA "operative" whose was not a covert agent. Per federal regulations, she was no longer considered covert because she had not received a covert assignment in over five years.
I think it's funny that you mention this, because the true analogy here would be Truman taking credit for winning WWII, since he stepped in after FDR's death and dropped the nukes on Japan. While the ending of the OPEC crisis certainly was a great help, like it or not Reagan's economic policies turned a mess into a huge upswing through the 1980s. Unfortunately, left-wing resistance to the building of refineries and nuclear power plants have put us in a bad position once again.
We don't need to defend our economic policies because they're not disastrous. Compare Clinton to both Bushes and even Reagan, whose economic mismanagement had the good fortune to occur just after the country stopped being boycotted by OPEC.
I only wish we could always be "mismanaged" the way Reagan's administration mismanaged; we went from double-digit unemployment and inflation to single digits and gas prices dropped to records lows. Carter told us to keep our chins up and put on a sweater if we couldn't afford heat.
That's a red herring. Your data shows no connection between the faulty "Iraq-9/11" meme and conservatism; it only shows that ignorant people often believe things that are incorrect.
The quote you listed is completely out of context [snopes.com].
The quote reflects exectly what she meant, in or out of context. She addressed a group of wealthy people, telling them that she was going to take something away from them for the common good. If you specifically take more from those who have more, that's socialism.

What the heck is an EISA drive? Do you have some black-ops Hardcard from 1991?

+5 insightful? Hi mods, I think you meant to select "offtopic." The politicization of every issue makes me ill.
Dueling is outlawed in the D.C. and all or nearly all states. If anyone knows a state where it isn't, I'd be interested in finding out.
She gives them beegasms?
Well, at least we know two slashdotters don't know jack about electricity.

Buying carbon credits would be more effective.

But what do you do about your stinky attic? Good place for a Stick-Up, eh?
