This is total crap, read between the lines, he and other corps wants CHEAP labor. If there is such a demand, why are colleges churning out comp sci graduates with no jobs? What does corporate America have against Americans? Good freakin grief, when I was laid off back in 2001, I couldn't get a damn job, however all I heard was how corps were whining about not having enough "qualified" people, and how we need to import more damn Indians and such. What the hell was I? I needed a job too and corporate America let me an thousands of native born Americans down, for this I will NEVER forget, that's why I use free, reduced price, or Open Source software, and advise clients to do so too. So what, I'm a tiny flea, but it's still less money in their pockets...
Cops can say whatever they want to get you to confess to a crime. This is BS, as one poster already said, guess the FBI don't like the competition. A-holes!
Actually GM is the worlds largest corporation, so no, IBM does not have bigger market cap than GM. Just being nit-picky. Look at the companies the GM owns, some are: Rayethon, Hughes, Isuzu, Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, GMC, Pontiac, Saab, Delco, AM General, GMAC, and that's just a few I cam up with in a couple of minutes.
Yes, it is, her very character is corrupted, digging into the past to reveal possible bias is important. That establishes a pattern of bias, and in this case it seems valid. So since human being are creatures of habit, therefore this survey is a complete fabrication and a lie. FUD, FUD. FUD
Bullshit!
amazon.com, google.com
That's just two small to medium sized businesses?
Microshit white "lie" papers cannont be trusted, that has been proven time and time again.
I submit to you that microshit is for small businesses that don't require a true knowledgable staff to operate.
Microshit may do fine for users to store their excel spreadsheets on, but REAL server tasks require a REAL server OS.
This is backed by *nix domination of the web server market. I prefer a mixed enviroment, few microshit does better, most things *NIX does better. Right tool, right job.
Oh, you are joking, I get it...
I have a Linux server with 502 days uptime right now, I JUST checked it, yes it is currently updated on patches. Have you EVER had a winblows box maintain THAT kind of uptime?? I didn't think so.. This damn server has almost been up since w3k was released. These are billie boi's and hot head balmer's attempts at FUD.
Well, it's the only place we have to spread the truth, M$ owns the airwaves and advertising. So got to a pro-microshit site if you don't like it, nobody is keeping you here.
The ISS probably uses light weight tools. Going up for one repair mission is whole lot different than the ISS. The ISS in in constant orbit, the less the mass, the better for fuel consumption for orbit corrections. Also cargo constraints are a HUGE factor. Consider this, the Astronauts are excited to get a few grams of extra cargo for each resupply mission. With each Shuttle launch costing around 1 billion, a little less for other vehciles, nonetheless, cargo is expensive. So these assholes lose tools, if they need to be replaced it's considerably over $1000.00 per pound, that's one hell of a FedEx bill! Surgeons and O.R. Nurses count everything, down to the last suture needle, as it may cost the a few million in liability. Why the hell can't these over-educated, over-paid grease monkeys do the same? NASA is nothing but a bottomless money pit, a dollar grinding machine. Making light of losing tools isn't funny or fascinating, this costs money, lots of money. If I had "lost" a vehicle while I was in the military, do you think they would make light of it, costs are about the same, why not? Somebody should be held accountable for this misuse of taxpayer money!
As a tax payer, I am pissed that they are "misplacing" tools that cost way more than tools I have in my garage. Just think about how much it cost to supply them with those tools, testing, purchasing then launching them into orbit. NASA doesn't just go to Sears to get a wrench then load it onto a lauch vehicle and away it goes. The damn thing is spec'd out, high priced contractors offer up prototypes, testing, redesigned, retested, etc. costing thousands even millions of dollars for EACH tool. The press then makes light of it like it was a show on DIY network. I don't find it even remotely fascinating or funny.
"Can you imagine what kind of replies she'd get on forums asking for help?"
THAT has to be one of the more funny statements I've heard yet!! I see your point. Personally I like Linux right where it is, on the fringes of desktop acceptance, yet strong acceptance in the back room server arena. Linux has it's place. Just like micro$oft does, on the desktop used by moms, pops, and others that can't accept change or constant learning curve.
I would ride a bike, but it's like playing the game Frogger, remember that one? No try to imagine a suburban housewife carting kids around in a 3-4 ton SUV smoking, talking on a cell phone, trying to drink a soda, and yelling at her 2.5 children all at the same time. Now you know the reason I don't ride a bicycle anywhere there isn't a track. Walking isn't much safer either.

Fuck off asshat.. What about Robert Kennedy, Clinton, Pelosi, MCI Worldcom, TYCO, Those aren't Texas politicians/ companies, just as crooked as anything from Texas.
I disagree with your assessment of Thinkpads. Our dispatcher's truck got rolled 3 times in an accident and the Thinkpad came out virtually unscathed after bouncing around the cab, a similar Dell we have would have been destroyed. The Dell is EXTREMELY flimsy when compared to the IBM. The case makes cracking noises, like a little bitch complaining, when simply picked up to be moved. Of course the Panasonic CF-18 we have could be used as a hammer to smash either one into bits. As far as stability, the user is of limited experience and has no issues with the Thinkpad, I think that maybe your "experience" is more like trying to do more with a laptop than it's supposed to do. Every business I have talked to that uses Thinkpads have nothing but great things to say about them. I like either one, but for durability for the price, the Thinkpad wins hands down. Since my experience is with extreme duty transportation work in West Texas heat and dust, I think I am qualified to speak about durability. A Dell would crawl into the corner and wimper like a beat dog. Controlled climate ofiice enviroment, Dell rocks, IMHO. Right tool for the right job.
I didn't say they 200-300MB was huge, that is what sized most of my files are, separate databases, etc... JFS should handle VERY large files without problem.
So teaching Evolution as fact isn't "junk science?" Teaching a theory as fact, as many "secular" schools do is in fact closing kids minds to other possibilities of how life began. Libtards are just as guilty as Christian fundies in trying to represent their views only to our children. I don't see the harm in teaching evolution as a theory with many unexplained holes in it. Fact is, we do not know how we got here, we have ideas and limited written/ oral history, roughly 6K years worth, not much else. Everything else has been dug, observed, and or dreamed up and lumped into the ever evolving theory of evolution. It's simply one explaination, not the enlightened truth that we are sometimes led to believe.
Do Americans watch movies made in other nations? Not much.
No, because they suck, ever actually watch a movie from Bollywood??
Do you see minority male actors in romantic leads? Hardly ever.
Will Smith come to mind, probably one of my favorite actors, but I can't judge, I don't watch romantic movies..
Do you see a white male in almost every movie, regardless of location or story? Almost always.
Playing the dorky idoit, or socially inept moron. You got to have your stereotypical white nerd. So ~13% of the population MUST be represented in ~99% of all movies and make a majority of the cast, or we are guilty of racism, right?
Fact is, white Americans have a harder time putting themselves in the shoes of another race, or nation even.
OK, so what? Visit India where virtually everybody is the same race, so they discriminate based on which caste you born into. Humans WILL classify themselves somehow, race, religion, caste, sex, etc.
Everyone in Asia watches American movies, idolizes American stars and celebrities. Americans have not done the same.
That's also white man's fault too, right.... Again, most foreign films suck.
This post was sent as AC because any opinion against Americans gets modded -1. Sort of like groupthink and censorship.
Whatever...
Of course all Americans aren't like that, but to think that Americans are very welcoming of any culture is naive. They only try to fit other cultures within their own mindset.
Americans have EARNED the right to be arrogant. What's your excuse?
The so called illegal wiretaps were in fact legal. Liberals and their pet media have spun the wiretap issue into something it is not. The President and the NSA had bipartisan congressional oversight of any and ALL wiretaps performed. Now the cookie thing is illegal and should be investigated.
Blockbuster undercut many Mom & Pop, and small chain video stores back in the early ninties. After putting them out of business they jacked their rental fees right back up, sometimes more than previous said businesses. I will NOT do business with Cockbuster at all. I like to see them getting their asses handed to them, serves them right!

My day is now complete with reading of the "in Soviet Russia" comment.
I hope this 911 dispatch center IS NOT in my city... I wouldn't run a Where's Waldo child's program on winblows if it was mission critical..

Oops, I guess I did sat that 200-300MB was large, err, well I didn't mean it, and I didn't inhale....
I didn't say they 200-300MB was huge, that is what sized most of my files are, separate databases, etc... JFS should handle VERY large files without problem.
I use JFS on RAID 5, no errors, uptime of 200+ days currently. Handling large files 200-300MB each all day long. Excellent performance.
