    Second that. I have not visited them since after iphone hysteria - one anti-apple comment, and I was banned. Fuck them.

    Oh! How can that be allowed! We have to have only hipsters in silhouettes with no face on the ads. MS needs a good bashing on trying to differ from the crowd here.

    WTF? So basically, you are implying that I move out from where I live? High speed internet is absolute necessity for me for the work I do.

    Or better summaries. From the blog link:

    Dear Fellow ‘Netizens, I’m writing to urge Comcast subscribers to opt-out of the proposed P2P Congestion Settlement between Comcast Corporation and its customers (http://p2pcongestionsettlement.com/). There are huge problems with the deal, but it only takes you a minute to reject it.

    Monopoly is bad only if it's anti-competitive. I don't give fuck about monopoly as much as I do about anti-competitive behavior. Now go and fuck yourself.

    >> But even if it IS a ripoff, whether it's illegal is another question entirely.

    With Apple, in most cases, its not about the legality as much as it is about morality/ethics. Even Microsoft has better track-record when it comes to that.

    Right on. That's exactly what I did.

    I have a projector at home (Epson 8100), and at times, wanted to connect it with my thinkpad. Plugging the laptop was a PITA as you mentioned.
    Got myself a second hand dell desktop (nothing great in hardware, just regular desktop), put Ubuntu on it, hooked it up with the projector and the Onkyo receiver permanently, got logitech BT keyboard/mouse, and just got done with it.

  20. Re:Nicely put on Why "Running IT As a Business" Is a Bad Idea · · Score: 1

    I have been to both sides. Projects where we were supposed to follow all the stages of a development cycle to projects where you start coding things on day 1.

    The problem is not with either of the approaches - the problem is not knowing which approach works in what situation. Follow any of them blindly, and you will be in trouble.

    Now, I am in position where I talk to 'business', I generate requirements (yes, they need to be 'generated' as most people have no clue what they are looking for), I design my system and I code it too. If required (depending on complexity), I ask somebody to do design/code review. Never been happier. Yeah, and fuck UML.

  21. Re:He is correct on Why "Running IT As a Business" Is a Bad Idea · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Roger that! After working at few very large organizations, I finally called quit, waited for a good opportunity to come by (sat home, did one or two certification while waiting), and could not have been happier with a smaller company I work with now. Not only can I wear jeans and t-shirts, have flexible timing, I can also use Ubuntu or any other Linux distro as my desktop at work without worrying about standards, policies and all such fuck-ups.

    And I get paid a little more.

  23. Re:RAW conversion for GIMP? on Raw Therapee 3 Is Now Free Software · · Score: 1

    Thank you. It's unbelievable that so called professional and serious amateur photographers who also are familiar with linux can not know one single application capable of handling raw format, when they have been available in one form or the other for quite some time.

  24. Re:dcraw on Raw Therapee 3 Is Now Free Software · · Score: 1

    Any professional or serious amateur would know that Gimp is not for managing your pictures. It's an editor. There are other photo managers available in Linux world (with limited editing capabilities). Even Picasa - though via wine - can do a pretty good job of managing pictures. Parent was probably pointing out the fact that this is not really the first FOSS program to offer raw support.
