Lets first get our stuff together on this rock before we go out and spread the blessings of humanity to other rocks. Who knows, we might even become worth saving.
If you're so fed up with the human race and think we're all not worth saving why don't you save nature the trouble and kill yourself? Sheesh
I can tell you that most teachers do not teach for the financial gain.
No, they do it because they like power and authority over people. The money is secondary.
Teachers will continue to make sacrifices for the good of others, even as new subjects are introduced at younger levels.
God, I almost puked after reading that. Firemen, police and soldiers make sacrifices, teachers just baby-sit.
I notice that many young and soon to be teachers think of themselves as modern day Christs. Do they have a class where they teach it or are people like that just attracted to the profession? Not trying to be an asshole, I'm really asking.
In my humble opinion it also helps to use different branded drives in your raid array, that way the chance of them failing at the same time for the same reason is less and you should have longer to do your rebuild.
I would just like to add that if he didn't like the color he should try the 6500k ones for plants, they're much more pleasant for humans too. At least I find them to be.
like extra personnel to stand right by the door all day,
But Walmart does pay people to stand by the door all day to check paying customer's receipts and treat them like theives. One of the reasons I avoid that place.
If you rent a movie that sucks, you are only out the amount of the rental, so it is not a big deal. If it is a movie you want to keep, then you can go down to the store and pick it up for around $20.
Thanks for the reply to you and the other responder above. I agree with you on the RAM, it's a pain to have 2 sticks of ram that you need to keep cause if you send the thing back for warranty they may say hey this ain't our ram... I don't know if apple is like that but I know other vendors that are. You also have a good point about the HDD. I wonder if there would be much performance increase going to a 7200 rpm drive and using the other in a usb enclosure. I don't think I could go for one of the white ones though, the black ones are just too damn nice.
It only prompts during system-level changes. After your system is configured, you generally don't see the prompts. If you're an advanced user that knows what you're doing, just disable the damn thing entirely.
So it's just like the commercial where PC says "I could turn it off, but then he wouldn't give me any warnings at all, which defeats the purpose"?
The 7.6 one isn't worth bothering with, but why don't you just bring a usb 2 button-with-a-scroll mouse and hook it up? I bet you'd notice a huge improvement. I hate working without a scroll wheel personally.
You see the same thing over and over, "toss the free software dogs a bone and buy some publicity" the suits think. The only company actually open sourcing anything worth while is Sun and maybe IBM to some extent.
I'm thinking of buying a black Macbook. I'm coming from a PC running FreeBSD (which I love, but sometimes flash and java have to just work). I guess my question is, what things should I be prepared for if I have never owned a Mac before? Oh and what would you consider the sweet spot as far as RAM goes? ie is it worth buying 2 GB or will I do just fine with 1? I do plan on playing with parallels, so I'm thinking I might need 2 but I'm curious to hear other people's opinions.
Yeah those truckers, they can steer, shift through 13+ gears, talk on the cb, hold the magazine all with one hand, and strangle a hooker they picked up at a truckstop with the other.
I disagree. Imagine the forensic pathologist that has to perform a rape exam on a 7 year old girl's corpse. You have to maintain your distance from it or it would drive you insane.
I used to live somewhere (flats in a "nice" town in Essex) where the neighbours made me park my car behind a Range Rover so that they didn't have to look at it.
I can't believe you stood for that. I'd have told my neighbours to go to hell if they told me where to park.

As a Canadian I couldn't agree more the RCMP has no business in California. While we're at it, would you mind keeping the DEA out of Canada?

Maybe there are users like you, but for every one of them there are ten that think they're like you.

I really don't see how a chumby compares to the olpc
You propose we listen to the economists and ethics professors who don't even know what genes are instead? No thanks.
Why not just copy the dvd you rented? ;)
I'd bring a few different strains, most likely jack herer, blueberry, & durban poison would be close to the top. Surprised no one else mentioned this.

Just because you disagree, doesn't mean it's trolling.

yeah, if your time is worth nothing it's free. Typed from my Athlon64 running FreeBSD.
I see that you have a macbook. Is it one of the new black ones by chance? I'm thinking of buying one and am looking for people's opinions.
PCMCIA hard drives? I haven't seen many of those. They are usually 2.5" ide or sata on the new laptops.
It was the one-armed man.

Cool, what hardware did actually take compared to what the Amiga had?
