You might run into some trouble if you decide to start a company based on ninja product support. After all, the purpose of the ninja is to flip out and kill people.
OTOH, Redhat was shipping meaningful manuals with their distributions pretty much from the beginning.
Unfortunately RedHat is no longer shipping a distro (ok, RHEL maybe, I dunno, but Fedora doesn't come in boxed sets and the nonexistant boxes do not contain printed manuals).
You can lead a horse (or in this case a penguin) to water, but you can't make it drink. If those penguins refuse to mate, I say let them die. They clearly are not interested in the survival of their own species, why should we be interested in keeping them alive?
I see no reason that a chip like this couldn't be carried. Embed the chip into a card or an ID bracelet.
Better yet, since the chip is just an ID number and doesn't carry any actual data, you could just get a bracelet with a barcode and written numbers on it. This would be cheaper to implement since you wouldn't need special equipment just to read the number (anybody with eyes could read the number, and also a barcode scanner would make it easier to read but wouldn't be necessary for reading).
Well, the only place that I wouldn't want it is my bedroom. It'd be perfectly acceptable, eg, in my kitchen or my office. The idea of having some light in a power outage is pretty cool, as long as these lingering lights don't interfere with my sleeping.
Oh, heh. I was going to say that I was hallucinating, but I see the source of the confusion now. You said:
(which will probably be on the same day as the release of GNOME.)
But the article states that GNOME will be released Sept 7th. So even though you don't mention a date, you are implying that Ubuntu will be released in September, given the context of the article.
There you have it.
(and I believe that the new ubuntu will have the new gnome).
It's a tricky game with words and definitions. Telus did implement certain "lockout" policies including such things as: you're not allowed to trade shifts, not allowed to get furlough, not allowed to pick up shifts, etc. They don't stop you from entering the building and working, but they make the job more annoying to actually do. So the union is relying on that to call it a "lockout" and not a strike.
I think it's a bunch of BS though, all of us who were "locked out" chose to be "locked out" and were picketing around the buildings. That sounds like a strike to me.
Well, the problem is that the sales people are usually minimum wage cash-register operators, they don't have the ability to haggle prices, they just scan the barcode and the price comes up, that's it that's all. You can't argue with a computer, unfortunately.
Dear Lord, nooooooo! I've seen the christmas special, and it's really truly awful. Lots of wookie talk that isn't subtitled or translated or anything, and a bunch of other nonsense... it's just... bad. There is nothing else that can be said about it.

The CAN-SPAM act is pretty simple to understand. CAN-SPAM means that they CAN SPAM.

I agree that more cashiers would be beneficial, but your requirement that they be sexually active is quite odd.
Ever heard of nuclear power? Or hydro? Solar or geothermal? Wind? Dead dinosaurs don't have a monopoly on electricity.
I kinda liked "pharming"

You're no better than the terrorists.
Don't forget to cancel your phone service and get Shaw Digital Phone, or even Vonage or some other VoIP provider.

the market will have already corrected this problem?
Telus is the telco monopoly for the two western provinces (British Columbia and Alberta). It will not be toppled by a little spat over a blocked IP.
I doubt many of those people still exist 10 years later,
;)
The phrasing here made me laugh. Did these people just grudgingly upgrade to a GUI, or were they all killed? It's not clear which you meant
The ironic thing is, in this case they'd be right.
Preach it, brother!

Am I the only person who is saddened by the fact that corporations seem to be modeled after total sociopaths?

Oh, eliminating wrongdoing is easy, if a bit tedious. You simply kill every last human on the planet!
What's the difference between a Republicrat and a Demolican? Not much. Same shit, different bull.
Actually, Ubuntu's next release will be in October. They follow a 6-month release cycle that has them releasing a new distro every April and October.
Will GNOME 2.12 make it into Ubuntu Breezy?
