I do the same with these using video. I tape the program on long play and play back on short play.
That combined with occasional bursts of fast forwarding means I can watch an hour program in I've held plenty of conversations with people about the programs afterwards and never seem to have missed things they mention.
I actually discovered the process by accident when a neighbour loaned me one to watch and the old video used for playback wasn't capable of long play.
Ok they show you some code. Do they actually provide it in a form that can be built so you can be sure it isn't some kind of almost the same but we've removed some essential sneaky bits?
With GPL (and other licensed stuff) you can definitely build it and use only your own build of it.
I can totally agree with the lack of symmetry in the commitment expected of employee compared with the compassion, consideration or simple concern the employer offers.
It made me realise how big a hypocrites they are too. Every regular company meeting there was at least 5 minutes saying to us "you are the company", "without you we couldn't do what we do".
Well news for the men at the top we didn't f*ck up (habit with the spelling of profanities for passing through the e-mail filters) getting new business. We did your end of getting projects done as asked. But who gets goodbyed?
I'm actually much happier for it. Having had the summer off I'll start work again before the end of the year doing what ever comes along. Even making coffee. I work to live not live to work
If submittals need to be signed (in paper format and on the appropriate form possibly) it's more likely that people adding themselves this way just would have no legal weight.
There might be an element of them being mislead into believing they are part of the suit when they are not. I suppose that depends on what Lindows do with the submissions afterwards, such as creating a filled in form for them which is dispatched for them to sign?
Maybe I should go and read the MS statement/complaint.
You are right it is a turning point. To continue in the direction we are headed clearly indicates the end of humanity as the major labour force and consumer. We will all be replaced with the next evolution the Global Corp Plc Consumer 2!
Consumer 2 what'll it do. It does everything your old human consumer and labour unit did but now it comes with built in DRM and unpgradable firmware.
Welcome to the future with Global Corp Plc, making the world ideal for the super rich:-)
It would probably be better to operate it off unique body odours. Crack sampling for instance. It would allow for those post holiday returns where you have gained 4 kilos in weight and the sofa suddenly thinks you're the missus instead!
I see one tenuous reason for dotgnu or mono. They will provide VB to the nix platforms. Which as a consequence could be made a module that can be integrated into the likes of Open Office to make it capable of running those portions of spreadsheets and Word macros that are currently out of reach.
Well no they shouldn't be uspset as a lot of them send a big portion of their earnings home to family. So in many ways it is a case of foreign investment.Income with no overheads?
Along with that India is producing replacements from its billion populace faster than the US would ever be happy to have them over to work!
Actually having worked for a small company doing lots for Ford amongst other big names they are quite helpful. Because you are dealing with individuals rather than the 800lb entity.
The other element of it is once they have chosen you to be their provider they often end up footing the bill for you to have the tool set you need (if you get the right deal).
Related to that wasn't Ford Europre meant to be migrating away from Microsoft? I haven't read anything recently to suggest that they have but...
The example in the story of a senior director wanting to keep the 5 year business plan so only he can read it can surely more flexibly and easly be done by giving him an encrypted partition for his home directory.
This system will make the journey to see my mum about 30% longer. Meaning I will go less often (she lives 120 miles away. Moving closer isn't practical because we don't have a good spread of jobs (tech is mostly the south and south east) and she's getting older as you might expect.
The point? This measure could destroy the way of life in the UK as we know it. Maybe that will be good. Maybe this plan will just ensure the current government is never re-elected once people realise the full implications.
Over dramatic probably but it's a real risk. I don't think people appreciate just how massive a proportion of journeys involve speeding at some point.
And besides that the letter serves no purpose. It adds nothing new nor constructive. It just feels like he is babbling for attention and I am not one of "his people".
Mickey Mouse copyright act managed to side step the constitution. Lawyers and industry sponsored politicians are good at circumnavigating those sorts of trivial black and white things.
This is just a battle slowing the seemingly inevitable unless changes that are more fundamental are made. It is just part of the trend like DRM, software patents making it into Europe and the like...
What's the real solution to the continual move of power to corporations? Or is it best we all just roll over and take it like good domestic livestock?
I work as a real time embedded system (mainly software) person. Part of the trouble I see is that real specialists working in that field where the products do life critical functions (engine and brake system controllers in my case) are treated as interchangably as developers who hack out comparably sized systems in a fortnight but don't need to be rigorous.
Basically managers needing it cheaper trying to replace full engineers with coders.
Is the guy sort of claiming that he is just following orders?
Don't think that excuse gets accepted much anymore. Plus, with the exception of Homer, it's perilous to be a henchman for the bad guys even if you only do a routine job like perhaps cleaner!
But if you installed Windows XP and found that it hadn't got a driver at all what would you do?
The point is when you talk geekdom features of using Linux you are talking about things you just can't do with a standard Windows install
For example. You find a neat item of software that you want to install on your WIndows machine. It's only distributed as source, foruntately it's totally self contained and written to standard C/C++.
Most windows users will only be able to compile it using an unlicensed copy of Visual Studio that they sneaked out of work one night.
Free OSs are way a head in their standard set up in some ways.
It might not be noise but based off actual units shipped. Tracked through records. If that is the normal way of doing it there is no statistical noise.
Besides results of much finer accuracy than that are accepted in some fields these days like subatomic physics. No one bats an eye lid at the precision of measurements there!
They might have written their own inferior ones or they might have adopted a GPL one. Such wide spread GPL adoption of a key technology might have been the foundation of a very different climate now.
But the way of speculation is that we shall never know. Until my time machine is complete...
I suggest http://www.da-cheng-chuan.org/. It used to work for me and is suprisingly hard work. I do yoga and run now though.
Combine that "stand still be fit" with your running up and down the stairs (and perhaps skipping with a rope) a few times a week to give your heart a few minutes at a highly raised rate (which is supposed to protect it).
Sorted.
Engineer:
Someone doing technical stuff
Someone operating in a professional capacity
Someone who has training in specific skills

are there any anti war demonstrations going on in the free US? I ask because at the time of the massive ones a few weeks back I unserstood that such marches on the streets of New York at least were banned?
Please don't flame me it's just a question to learn the truth if anyone knows...
On the "last two times the US has used force were" issue is it accurate to observe that the willingness, solitude in the undertaking and frequency with which the US goes to war are all increasing?
Just a few thoughts to balance things.
Might doesn't mean right...
Legal to move abroad but not to employ foreigners

Sun Sued Over H1-B Workers

It all strikes me as silly
Is it legal for them to close down a division or department and move it overseas or just lay off people and contract the work overseas?
But it isn't legal to do something effectively equivalent that means some of the cash stays in the country.

Because until then it would mean that the rest of the world including Europe could continue to use Gnu and Linux but the USA couldn't.
