Why is that critical? You have the same argument about women going into STEM. If women aren't interested in technical fields, why force them? If men aren't interested in going to college, why force them?
What you're not seeing are valid equivalent organizations towards advancing the male agenda. And that won't happen until the pendulum reaches the other side.
The Corsair CMPSU-750TX got really good reviews back when I was looking at building my own system. What would you suggest would be a better PSU for a system where I'm not using the higher end video cards for gaming?
Well, 2008 anyway. My AMD 4870's blue screen'd Windows XP and then Windows 7 on boot pretty regularly (and yes, I sent them back for testing but all appeared okay per DiamondMM). I finally replaced them with a pair of nVidia boards which just has the driver bail every once in a while and killed Firefox until I disabled the hardware acceleration option in Firefox.
Yep. I have a first gen iPad and it still works for what I use it for. Forum participation, checking amazon for reviews, recipes when I'm cooking, reading books, browsing gaming pdfs, email, listening to music, and some simpler games. The browser crashes if I hit a youtube heavy thread on a forum or news article but it restarts and works afterwards. I think I just need to back off my apps and stuff again and reinstall the last OS for a clean install.
At least from my girlfriend's perspective this is true. The Indian developers ignore anything she says until it's said by a guy on her team. Frustrates the hell out of her. And she's told her daughter not go to into programming.
Perhaps the problem is we men don't have legitimate male organizations that advocate for the boys and men. Women will naturally advocate for their benefit. Alternately the total nut-jobs have made having a male advocate so toxic that we can't have nice things.
Hah! I was working as a programmer at one place writing surveying software (to read data from a Surveying instrument and write it back out to an HP plotter) but I also went out on surveying jobs and one time had to chase cows back to the farm because the owners were also farmers raising cows, chickens, and corn. This was back in 84/85.
I am doing similar stuff at home. I'm taking a break right now from writing code for a work application I wrote and it's Christmas Eve. I spent hours yesterday gaming and today just want to be in solitude thinking over what I'm writing and working on my project.
I've always hated talking on the phone and will ignore my red light on the phone for several days or even weeks. Heck, 95% of the time the "voice" message is *beeeeep* (a hangup vs leaving a message). As to the phone, probably half of the callers are from outside the company ("can I send you a white paper from symantec?"). I always prefer an email or text message at home and just email at work. I leave my IM off at work typically just because of the number of "drive by" IMs. If I bring IM up for a problem where I'm working with others, I'll have 4 or 5 other popups asking me about this or that.
Tagging, Tag cloud, organizing by event, upload capable from portable devices as well as computers. Written on a LAMP system (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP). I have a special tag to identify pictures I want to rotate through the main page. It's still not quite where I want it to be but my stuff generally is a work in progress.
Write it yourself. You'll learn quite a lot and invest time into your photos:)
That you say all monitors completely suck when used in Portrait mode when you should have said the monitors you've used completely suck in Portrait mode. My Acer monitors work just fine in Portrait and rotated 180* with no distortion.
The bad part are the Linux drivers. With this setup, the monitors are in two domains. When I move the domains to overlap, I can move my mouse pointer into various monitors however I can't get back, I have to go counter clockwise to get the pointer back to the center monitor. So I can move from center to top but not top to center without going to the left monitor first.
I've spread my graphics programs across all four monitors when I have a large image. You get the bezels in the way but it seems to work well enough for my low-key usage.
But at work I have a laptop with an attached monitor and two Linux systems using Synergy to let me use the laptop mouse and keyboard on all three. It's a bit wonky though as the Mac version of Synergy isn't bug free yet.

I'd be happy with a text version of Word Perfect actually.

Sadly hitting 7 on my desk phone says "invalid option" and restarts the recording.

You wouldn't like it. Sometimes the guys don't shave. :D

Has Tinkerbell been fucking bunnies [b]again[/b]! Honestly you'd think she'd learn after last time. (Bunnies with wings :rolleyes: )

Don't know about ultra-wide but syslog entries can be pretty long same with the output of ps.
I do try to break up my code lines so they're readable but sometimes there's not a good place to use a line break.
And of course I'm not going full screen so it's good to have space on either side to overlap screens vs having to flip back and forth.

I have asked if I can though. Still waiting on whether they'll let me do so. We'll see :)
[John]
It's above the other one. See the pic in the link:

Upside down? Flipped? Rotated 180*? :)

Two video cards that support two monitors each.
But at work I have a laptop with an attached monitor and two Linux systems using Synergy to let me use the laptop mouse and keyboard on all three. It's a bit wonky though as the Mac version of Synergy isn't bug free yet.

And I custom built my own wooden stand using TV wall mounts for the monitors.
