You can almost bet not. This is getting close to the last straw for me. I've been here since Chips & Dips and if this kind of stuff continues to get posted, I'm never coming back.
Same here, pretty much all I knew how to do was ls, but eventually I figured out how to write a chat script and found Linux much more fun when connected to the Internet.:)
I don't use or plan to use IE. Flash has its place, but it isn't a web standard either. XMLHttpRequest is still supported out of the box in more places.
AJAX doesn't require the user to download a plugin as long as they are using a modern browser. Also, AJAX is not beholden to a single company who doesn't release their player in an open source format. I know I'm the weird exception, but I was running LinuxPPC and no flash client was available to me. If there would have been a full open source client, I could have compiled it myself. Firefox worked fine on that platform and hence, so did AJAX.
Oh come on thats just asinine. If someone was in that position, somewhere like the public library would be a great resource for job hunting on the Internet.
If they are concerned about the homeless, why not spend the money on shelters, food, or even the creation of jobs?

Spring Into PHP 5

The solution is to enable SELinux for Apache and only allow those PHP scripts access to their own files. Then even if there is an exploit for the poor written PHP code, the amount of damage it can do will be minimal.
I'd be just as angry if Microsoft did this. In fact, I'm probably more angry because I hold you to a higher standard. Even if this is a defensive patent, I want to hear you speaking out against the system, donating to the EFF or something. How about instead of "Do No Evil", you start doing good?
gag: make jokes or quips; "The students were gagging during dinner"
Wit is a form of intellectual humour, based on manipulation of concepts; a wit is someone who excels in witty remarks, typically in conversation and spontaneously, since wit carries the connotation of speed of thought. Dorothy Parker has the status of an archetypal twentieth century wit -- to the extent of having the remarks of others attributed to her. As in the wit of her set, the Algonquin Round Table, witty remarks may be cruel (as in many epigrams), and perhaps more ingenious than funny
Linux works phenomenally well if you use a well supported sound and video card. Try the Sound Blaster Live! series under Linux as an example. Granted, it takes some research and you can't just use whatever crap your mobo manufacterer put on it, but like I said, this is no different than Windows or OSX.

So is this free as in wine or free as in speech?
I think he was intending this to mean companies such as Red Hat or Novell. Both are places to go for support that don't involve bookmarks.

Who needs games when you could be spending that money on Guinness?
You must be new here.
Thats nice and all, but do you always refer to yourself in the 3rd person?

You need to get out more.
Quip
Just wait until you compile GCC with GCC.
Did you know that gullable isn't in the dictionary?
My understanding is that JPEG is intended for lossy compression of images and PNG is lossless. Definately a need for both.
Whoah you mean you were still walking your son to school at 7th grade AND carrying his backpack? Poor kid!
Now Google can store my e-mail, remember my searches, know who all my friends are, know where I'm driving, and know all my finances :-D
Good job!
pwned!
So much promise? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Has ANY movie based on a video game been close to good? The only one I can think of is MAYBE Mortal Kombat.

"We have a printer system that was developed for line printers and never matured."
Are you referring to Cups?
"We have a sound system that works most (but not all) of the time if you are lucky."
How is this different from OSX or Windows?
"We have power management issues on laptops which Microsoft fixed in 1995."
Agreed, plus suspend is a PITA!
