Oops, thanks for pointing out the serious bug thats been "bugging" us for a few weeks now. We were getting Google's scraps before, instead of the scrape. Thats why the search results were all miserably irrelevant. I'll fix the bug right away.
Thanks again,

Yeah but PostgreSQL is a GOOD open source product. Unlike MySQL (flame if you will, but its just barely coming into the 90's now)
Anyway, its obvious this is just bullshit cooked up by our wonderful DoJ, regardless of what database they are using copying it shouldn't be a problem.
What happens when you want to play some of your MP3's (or Vorbis or whatever) while you're playing a game? Well if you have your music on your linux filesystem, you're probably out of luck. You can have a shared FAT32 fs, but then you need to guess how much space you should assign to that and its a pain in the ass to get working at first anyway.
Of course you can work around that, but then maybe you want to check your email quick under Windows without booting Linux...now you have to setup your email client there, or live with webmail. Its just not worth the struggle when its easier to just stick with Linux or Windows, not both. I personally tried using just Linux, and then a dualboot, and as much as I like Linux and using open-source software in general, I had to go back to Windows because of annoyances like I listed above. Although I still use as much open-source stuff as possible (Firefox, openoffice, Cygwin, and so on)
Its _way_ more fun to build 70 mph accelerated roller coaster ramps to send your favorite guests flying to the stars (and of course crashing in a flaming wreck somewhere in your park;-)
At least until people stop going on your ride no matter how much it costs...
Yeah, the FX 5200 is inexcusable for Apple's best machine. I admit I'm tempted by one of these, but when I see that I'll need to buy more RAM, a new video card, and probably another hard drive the decent base price balloons into way more than I (a poor college student) can hope to afford.
They should probably offer a 9600xt (or NVIDIA equiv.) in the lowest G5 and the X800 or whatever the newest ati card is on the higher end.
I'd still love one though.
And anyone who has at least part of a working brain can wire their own CAT-5 in their house. Fiber takes more tools and experience to do properly (without breaking things at least)
Well...right now is when robots will replace people. For example, I work as a web developer at an investment casting company. We extensively use robotics throughout our process, and I would say we are probably the most automated investment caster in the world.
Where the robots excel are at the jobs that finding reliable people for is almost impossible. Its hard to find people who will take factory positions and do a good job at it. Keep in mind though, that the more robots there are, the more high-paying programming, troubleshooting, etc. jobs that are made to support them.
Oh, and its really cool to watch robots dip molds or pour molten steel;)
I drive a '94 Civic DX which when I purchased it had absolutely no features (power nothing, manual transmission, didn't even come with a radio). Still driving it today with over 208,000 miles and remarkably few repairs needed on it.
It's still a fine car, and with the exception of some minor rust where the paint got scratched, still runs very well.
it would have to be my pdp 11/23. I haven't actually used it recently, but it still worked after moving it last and I wouldn't doubt if I went into the garage and plugged it in that it would still work.
Or like the DEC/Compaq/hp AlphaServers. Nothing revolutionary about this technology, but with that said, I would appreciate being able to run Linux and Windows simeltaneously. I currently run only Linux, and although WineX has gotten much better it still does not compare to the native Windows XPerience for games.
Definitely had these in Wisconsin for a while. I live near Milwaukee and have been hearing radio ads for the damn things for quite a while now. Maybe if I wasn't stuck in a Charter area I would get one but its just too damn bad for me.
Hmm...I've shocked myself once or twice while wiring my house for telephone. But then again I took some older phone equipment home from work and wired it the fun way.
400 MHz is slow? Wow, I do a good amount of my home internet browsing on a pentium pro 200 mhz system (an old Dell Poweredge server) It runs linux, fluxbox and Firebird quite well actually (surprisingly)
Not only that, but one can go from a desert with very very little rain, to a tropical rainforest in a couple of hours. Hawaii is truly one of the most interesting places I've ever been to, and I will probably go back as soon as I can afford it;)
I'm happy that my employer doesn't mind at all paying me overtime for anything over 40 a week. I am paid hourly anyway. Amazingly enough, I have no problem putting in the extra hours for a project when I am getting properly compensated for my time.
I was at first leery of trying a Bayesian filter. I thought to myself, its so simple, it won't work good enough. So I installed PopFile (integrates as an SMTP proxy on Windows, extremely easy to use/setup) and was amazed. After a bit of training I now have about a 97% accuracy, sometimes even higher.
I also used SpamAssasin for a while, but it never seemed to do quite so well of a job. It let alot of junk get through until I set in lower, then I got some false-positives.
Wow, by that logic, lets release ALL of the criminals in the prisons today. Since their all criminals, it won't take them long to get arrested again, right?

Yeah whatever, get back to me when I can buy my own bending unit in the store.
I'll give you even a better reason...

Wow, good thing you got all of that "work" stuff done so you can hang around /. all day again.

Just imagine a beowulf cluster of vaxenPods

Anyway, your point is not lost on everyone. :)
Interesting that you bring up getting an MSCE at 15. I got my MCSE certification at 14.

I've always had luck looking in /dev/null
No, but with all those great programmers and engineers out of work, we can make a bigger better robot army to destroy ALL OF THE CEOS
