One thing you didn't mention about framework packages, and it's something I think is cool, is that Apple's framework packages generally contain every version of the framework including minor revisions. It may make libraries bigger, but each app can continue to run without dependancy issues like "You're running libC 10, and this program is libC 9"... At least in theory. I've never had an app come up and tell me a library is missing or broken in OS X, but it has occurred several times in the windows world at work.
Wine or beer at lunch is not a big deal in Europe. They even have a NA version of beer for the kiddies, at least in Germany. I don't see what the big deal is. I think we Usonians are far to uptight about such things.
I think if a site operator uses full-post rss, it could work out nicely. It would be a ready-made article delivered right to your reader. Until I correct the bandwidth-hogging (grabbing 4x an hour, etc) I will implement fullposts. I also need to count my rss users. I wonder if anyone has worked on this problem already...
I've made $3 from adsense in the past week or so, and the ads are only on my archival pages. People click on them. Of course, WordPress knows to send an unchanged message if someone grabs at the file and it's unchanged. Some clients need to learn respect for the server though.
If you had someone hitting your rss feed once ever 15 minutes for any length of time, you'd realise rather quickly that a lot of people abuse rss, and perhaps deserve to see ads.
A daisy-chain of these! (note: not a beowulf cluster) It would be similar to a Navi brick system. I still want some sort of expandable bus standard. It sure would be great to add a video card by pluggin in an expansion brick. Unfortunately the RFI involved in external cables and the shielding required make this difficult.
I have built testing frameworks in both WinRunner and QuickTest Pro, and I have to say the QTP framework was easier to write. Using the XLS-as-database structure built in to everything COM, we were able to write tests in Excel files, and do it in about 1,500 lines of code.
Anything is simple if you break down each step into a window, object, action, input, output format. One thing we found that makes our lives somewhat easier is to forego the entirety of QTP except as an execution engine. We don't use actions in the QTP script except to call our test case, and we write the whole framework in a normal text editor, except when testing the engine itself. Our repository is stored in a database using descriptive object naming and a versioning scheme I came up with. It sits on the same SQL Server as TestDirector, too.
There are some things I'd like to do better, but the way I built the framework, it should be easy to add these features in. We have already added several functional extensions to the regular object classes, and will continue to do so in the future.
The same could be done in WinRunner, but the app doesn't support ActiveX and COM directly in code, choosing instead to use intermediary layers. For this reason we didn't go that route with WinRunner tests (We use both in-house) instead opting for direct coding of the engine. Then again, WinRunner is far from OO which makes life hell especially when talking to a VB/.Net appliacation under test.
That was the worst thing I've probably ever read. Even worse is that knowing Hollywood, it's entirely possible as well.
I just read Starship Troopers, and I am quite angry at them for blowing that book-to-movie transition in retrospect. The folks in the movie industry need to either stick to the stories or not produce them. Do or not do, there is no try.
Doubt it would matter. Most spams I've seen are not from AOL but one of the big spooler services (supernews, uncensorednews, etc.) It's getting old, even in the Nospam groups.
It just takes a little practice. I type qwerty at work, and dvorak at home. I switch rather easily. There is that brief period where I yfl. nct. ydco,d.b c i.y drm.v (Type like this when I get home)
You write you "don't judge people by their political affiliation," right after writing you think the mods are "politically biased leftist extremists?" Nicely trolled.
I get quiet comfort out of a pair of Etymotic ER-6i headphones, at twice the quality, at half the price. I have Bose speakers in my living room. I'm still kicking myself for buying them when I could have gotten... well, anything else, period.
I recall the launches of UO and Lineage 2 (US launch, in that case) and both were plagued by downtime and reboots ever three hours or so. L2's mobs were constantly disappearing. Or you'd be fighting something your level +2 and it would de-select itself so you have to re-acquire it as a target. Every system has its bugs.
My iMac has a GeForce2MX, which is pretty much crap. My PC has a Radeon 9200, which has significantly better output. The only issue is my PC has 4x the dedicated RAM for graphics, so I could imagine the mini looking 1/4 as well, or just as well, but slower, or both the same speed and just as well due to some other factor I'm not considering. I get about 30-60 fps depending on the situation in WoW on my 9200; I don't know how much of that is graphics card, memory, or hard disk. I'm fairly certain CPU isn't really an issue on rendering 3d these days.
My 800MHz iMac G4 seems to run the game fine, despite being below minreq on CPU speed. But I do have 768MB RAM in it. I also play WoW on my PC, so I guess this post is beside the point.
my second stick is third party, and it works fine. Hell, the RAM Apple puts in there is third party, too. There is no first-party RAM. They all go through a major manufacturer.

May Bob have a word?
He named Vader right after the battle with Mace Windu, which was in Palpatine's office.

Madonna called. She says "What the FUCK do you think you're doing?"

Isn't there already a 'mobiles off' rule?

Actually, the term is 'nano bit-bucket'
Yes, you can enter binary with one button. You just have to do it to a clock.

I would suggest "Tales From Topographic Oceans" by Yes. Every song is 15-20 minutes. I also enjoy longer Tangerine Dream songs.
The problem is easily solved though. [Time] [is less than] [4:00] in a playlist, then shuffle-sync from that.
And the longer the song, the better. That's why I have the 20 gig iPod :)

I didn't have a C=64, you insensitive clod! (I had an Atari 800XL)
*sigh*, I miss that computer
