Despite the bad natured postscript, I fully agree. T-Mobile has excellent customer service, decidedly better than verizon or cingular. It is possible that the gp's customer service complaints are related to his disability.
Also, in the two areas I frequent (Chicago Metropolitan area and Downstate IL), I've never had ANY service problems or interference in normal conditions. So maybe we're talking about two different T-Mobiles.
Well, the related links generally are not anything extra, it's just a list of the links included in the post. If the post had included an link to outlook, it would have been in the "related links" section. But this story is abiut alternatives to outlook, so why even bother? Obviously if you want a corporate groupware client, the first thing you think of is Outlook. That's not the point of this post however.
my wireless FUCKING BROADCOM (search engine snare) card isn't supported under anything but Windows (Dell 1400)
Use the ndisWrapper linux kernel module to get wireless support for your card in linux. It works extremely well, and generally will function perfectly as long as there are windows drivers.
Alternately, a company called LinuxANT makes a commercial version of the same tool, but ndiswrapper is so easy to use that it doesn't matter.
i'm happy that you have a status bar. however, the posted link did not claim to be google, it's a link to a screenshot of someone getting those results. likely it is being tested, or only rolled out on some regional varieties of google.
whose rights would paying autonomous robots violate? I don't think that NOT paying someone because a robot took his place is a violation of that person's rights. just ask the millions of workers worldwide whose jobs have been made obsolete by assembly automation. Or were you referring to the fact that robots are not human enough to possess money? That might be an issue, but it certainly wouldn't be a violation of rights, quit the opposite; if anything it would be akin to granting rights to the washing machine.
So would you call Kazaa centralized? It's not, because there is no one server that you could shut down to destroy the network. In that loose sense, Bittorrent is already decentralized, because it requires a tracker for each package, which is easy to set up, and not by any means a central point of failure. No **AA crony can use a court order to stop all bittorrent activity, they can only shut down a single file at a time. The IP addresses a decentralized P2P client connects to obviously are not hard-coded into the program, and can be arbitrary and manifold. In a centralized model, like napster or soulseek, the user has no choice of where his client connects to.
Oh, and last on my distant-future wishlist: A financial-incentive packet bartering priority boost. I.e., anyone can download, but if you contribute money to the authors of the content you're downloading (this would require a centralized server, no way around it), you get a faster download rate. The more you contribute, the faster your downloads go; your donation distribution could be handled automatically.
This is done by Soulseek and is the reason why I believe them to be doomed in the long run. Soulseek, while not perfect, is an extremely nice music p2p app that allows for the downloading of complete albums (as long as people organize their albums into seperate folders, which most soulseek users do), mostly at high bitrates. Literally most any music you might want can be found on slsk, but lines to download are often 30-1000 users long. Nothing leaving the program on overnight won't fix, but for a non-recurring donation of $5, you will be added to a list of "privelaged users" who jump ahead of any non-donators in line. this makes it possible to download an absolutely obscene amount of good (i.e. not commercial) music in short order. But it also means that soulseek is profiting in a very real sense off of copyright infringement. I don't know where they are located, and doubt that it's the USA, but no matter where they are I'm sure that as soon as they hit a critical mass, they'll be doomed to litigation hell. Maybe I shouldn't post this. oh well.
(disclaimer: even though it might seem so, I have no affiliation with soulseek or its developers. I just like the software.)
Actually, here, well is an adverb. It modifies the verb "to be," or I am.
An adverb describes a verb, adjective, or another adverb- Good at faking.
In this case, good is actually an adjective, it modifies the noun "faking." Faking is a gerund, that is to say a verb that has been converted into a noun with -ing.
In other words, way to go, you got it entirely wrong. Grandparent is correct.
Could be wrong, but AFAIK, each type of assembly usually has only one calling convention. If it were otherwise, it wouldn't be much of a convention. Obviously, though, it can't be said that there is only one assembly calling convention, because every ISA is different enough architecturally for this to be impossible. I defy you to show me multiple calling conventions that are widely adhered within a single ISA
Witness the failures of moderation! Come on, ths is not a troll. It's OFFTOPIC. looks like a decent recipe, too. We have enough problems with too many moderation options, if an appropriate option exists, choose it.
It could be a reference to the Dew point. The dew point is the temperature at which the current atmosphere would need to be cooled to for it to be saturated with water (e.g. 100% humidity).
Although, it's probably just someone being dumb. Just not NECESSARILY.

Type ahead fine works better in the suite. I prefer a links only search if i just start typing, with / for the fulltext. Firefox always does fulltext.
Firefox used to behave this way, and I agree, it was nicer. As of 1.0PR it stopped distuingishing between links and text. Now there is only an option for "begin finding when you begin typing." how annoying.
Type ahead find doesn't work in the View Source window of FireFox.
Not true. Works fine for me. sure you have the latest version?
from the picture it looks like the first floor is raised significantly off the ground. I say this because the camera is raised, and at least 50 feet back, yet it catches the first floor. Also, in a town like Curtiba, with a population of almost 2 million, "held as a paragon of urban planning excellence... [with] a notably efficient transportation system...," 300k is cheap. Look at condos in any US City.

odd. doesn't seem like a mirror to me. check out some of these pictures there(NSFW!)
Adblock doesn't have default filters, you have to find or create your own.

that is all.
I mod any clockwork orange reference up. A shame I have no points. Oh well, I'll just command someone else to do it.
