When this happens, mac hardware will go up in price or be pulled out of the market completely for lack of necessity.
Everyone will be using Linux or Mac Os on their $100 pc's from china then.
And it should not matter whether he 'knows' mac hardware or not, I mean, what is the difference between knowing an intel based pc video card, or a mac one? Negligible I would think in this case.
Not all have become 'big & bloated'. That's the beauty of OSS, there are millions of distros this chap can play with until he finds something that is right for him.
And I still can't believe your suggesting he dump X (gui) altogether!
I mean come on, there are times when command line is king, and times when it is not.
Why would he go through all the trouble of learning and settting up a VM when he wants to get rid of windoze?
He would still need to set up linux, only then he would have the added work/worry of setting up Vm, while still maintaining an OS (win) that he wants to put in the trash where it belongs.
I think you have many options while waiting for the fat cats to get to you.
- *IF* your satellite companys has the feature, use only their downlink-- but uplink with a land phone (little to no latency).
- Get a T1.. there not as expensive as the past and I believe the phone company will put them anywhere there are paved roads.
- You probably have enough pots wiring to have at least 4 phone lines at once. Find out if any isp in the area (or any with reasonable 800's which are not in the area) handle: 'Load Balancing', which is a feature that combines your several regular phone lines into one, which can be as fast or faster than isdn.
- There are probably alot of other people frustrated 'out there' as well. Get together with them and start your own little wireless isp..maybe even charge new people a few bux.
And don't forget to include working for yourself, pt at least.
The Linux field is wide open and ready to explode.
Dont' let any one tell you otherwise, when we all know everyone is fed up with m$.
There is a shortage of good linux guys out there now!
You'd be suprised at how many business will accept a freelance person like yourself when you show up at their door.
Most business can not outsource work like you can do-- to some 'hobby-ka-bobby' over in India.
School is what YOU make of it, no matter where you go..or even if you dont' and just learn on your own, or some tec school.
That will all depend, or should depend on what your short term goal is.
But since 'goals' change, I would just have the attitude that I am going to go to school for the rest of my life-- at differnt periods & frequencies, in order to 'brush' up or whatever.
When i started college..many mooons ago, i was told that if i was interested in writing software i should take CS with the 'Business' option..and if i wanted to get into creating hardware that i should take the 'science' option.
I don't know if they still split CS majors today... but something to think about.
Remember, the U.S. army is nothing more than a spinless bunch of opportunists, who only can handle third world countries civilians....
And even that they are incapable of (see Iraq).
Yea, they might be able to do what you say to a few unarmed and poooor old ladies in the bayous..
But the good newz is.. while these so called 'men' with their penis extentions (guns) are doing this.. the rest of the citizenry is gathering up steam to put these murders outa-their-missery.
However chances are, these scum bags that are 'trying' to force people from their homes, are only going to visit the neighborhoods where they believe they will get least resistance...
But that's ok tooo, because records are being kept on these pieces-o-crap-murders.:)
Fortunately when it 'all-comes-down'.. we won't have to "DEAL WITH" people like you, because the first type of people the U.S. government will kill, are the spineless, parroting, arse-kissers 'like you'.
Unless they were broadcasting "let's rise up and kill all of teh bureaucrats, and burn down any remaining structures with their owners locked inside" i doubt FEMA would care much.
Actually this is the one & ONLY thing that would get the 'officials' attention.
And not only their attention, but with a couple of small bands of vigilante groups to 'back-up' what they preach,.. you better believe service would improve just by the fact that there was a removal of these handful of 'scum authorities'.
Then not only would everyone get their little radios, but more information would start to flow in the form of pictures and InterNet blogs, which 'The People' would have now from 'confiscating' from the afformentioned previous 'scum-authorities' computers, cameras, etc.;)
Everyone would assume someone with your credentials would speak more for the individual(s) affected by this tragedy, rather than for the 'few-individuals' who excert authority over these poor people.
Hopefully the FCC will take note and come down hard on the so called 'authorities' who are constricting this 'legal' station from transmitting near the Dome, and penalize people 'like you' who have contributed to this debacle.
Why do you think by going on-and-on-and-on-and-on, will convince people of anything.
I stopped reading your novel when you claimed that people should not be able to listen to radios because it was an emergancy.
There are Soooo many things that can be done to accomodate the people who are displaced, as opposed to 'accomodating' the government or agencies that are there to 'help' them.
You sir, are the one who has things backwards here.
People can be required to listen outside, wear headsets, listen only during day time hours etc.
So your attempt at being 'slick' with all your pysco-babel really is just a waste-- but does probably play well with all of the 'anti-Christian' Bush supporters.
"look at the difference between 9/11 and NOLA...rich white financial district, and help was there within 5 minutes", etc. Um, hello? Who responded to 9/11 in NYC itself? Local authorities.
Yea that's right, because the 'feds' (including the armies, etc) were tooo afraid to respond to 911, for fear that they might have a 'real fight' on their hands!
So they went into third world countries.. AHHHHND they STILL can't handle it!!
Now in NOLA, the locals thought that maybe.. just MAYBE.. that the feds could handle sending ships, airplanes, airboats, whatever, in advance, in order to help 'preserve' The Union..
People 'like you'-- need to be brought to justice, just like the whole republican party needs to be brought to justice-- by WHATEVER means is necessary, including anarchy on you mf's.:)
Well you sure weren't kidding when you called your post "Nonsense", because that is exactly what it is.
Or maybe you just didn't read tfa.
They are NOT ALOUD to broadcast NEAR the dome, period.
So trying to broacast from outside of it, is out of the question, especially now that fema, prick chaney, etc. will be monitoring these malcontents every move (for the good of the nation of course).
And as far as getting the 'clear channel' types in the area to provide the 'needed info', well in case you didn't notice-- that practice only applies to supporting the Industrial-Military-Complex called The Beast, The Machine, Amerika... take your choice.:)
From my understanding a firewall is ANY procedure that directs (ie allows/disallows) and detects traffic on a network.
Do you mean a 'hardware' (cisco's) as opposed to 'software' ONLY?
If so, cisco's (is all FIRMWARE), as in SOFT-WARE, ie. embeded in hardware permanently (unless flashed by user).
Or am I missing something here.
I don't meen to start a pissing contest or anything.. it is just that there is sooo much to learn and confusion out there.. that when I see a term I am not familiar with, I investigate:)
Just because you 'believe' that you won't be here to suffer with everyone else (like Jesus did), then why would you be a conspirator to this evil chip system by way of walking away from any responsability in 'fighting' it with all-of-your-might.
I already know the answers.. I am just doing to this to shine the light on people 'like you'-- for those that my actaully consider what you say to be the truth.
For those who 'claim' to be concerned about not taking the mark of the beast by means of a chip or tatoo, let me remind you of what the Bible says about prophecy.
And that is, NOONE knows about whether a prophet or prophecy is true, until it either comes to pass (or not).
Now this may seem simplistic, but by listening to the majority (of hypocrites) who claim they are 'affraid' to have chips for any reason, I say that God's instruction in the book of Revelation on this matter is vague for a reason. Which is, to make people like the Anti-Christian Church (aka as the 'Christian' churches of today) look like the liers that they are in such matters.
Anyone (as low as 3rd graders) can read the Bible for themselves and see that the people during the time of this 'Mark Of The Beast' will be 'deceived', which is not only NOT a sin, but clearly shows that anyone who claims to know exactly what the Mark acually is, is a deciever and false prophet themself.
As far as the chip implant being hoisted on everyone in the future by the owd (one world government types), there must be other motives lurking here since everyone knows that the cat & mouse game that the cops and so called 'bad guy' play is not going to be any different once the chips are perfected (and or implemented in mass).
To claim or think the chips will be a panacea to protect 'corporations' or consumers from fraud, or parents to protect their children by being able to have them 'tracked' continuelly 24/7, is a fraud in itself which needs to be prosecuted immediately under any applicable conspiracy laws as well.
These chips will still be subject to alteration by the people who 'get them', by the simple means of having new ones implemented and/or re-programming the firmware.
The government is trying to pull the wool over our eyes-- just like they did (and still do) concerning 'irrefutable' DNA evidence.
Most people STILL to this day believe that DNA evidence is a 100% accurate-- sure-fire-way to prove someones innocence or guilt.
Well anyone with enough fortitude to stop and think about how dna is collected will know that this is simply NOT the truth.
For instance, in the 'old daze' cops needed to find a strand of hair, blood or other items to try and 'connect' someone to a crime.
This was hard since these items are 'usually' not left at the scene.
It would be almost imposible for a 'bad' cop or anyone else for that matter to 'set-one-up' this 'old' way of using evidence, because it was so hard to find this things (blood, hair, etc) just laying around.
However with dna.. if a bad-cop wanted to 'frame' you...all he needed to do, is follow you around.. and wait for you to throw a cup away that you drank from, or a tissue you wiped your nose with, or even dirt from your nails (and i think finger print oil).
Sooo what we have INSTEAD of a 'fool proof' way to catch criminals-- we have just the oppposite-- a way for the cops (government) to set up 'malcontents' or any other citizen who a 'over zeolouse' cop may want to 'frame'.
Likewise these chips will therefore be used by governments to 'mess up' malcontents credit at will.
These chips will be used by this same evil government (as we have today) to monitor our children all-right.. but for the same reasons they currently monitor citizens en mass who have not nor will not commit any crimes.
Sadly we will ALL be guilty-- if we let these liers, homosexuals and vicioius killers who currently run our government, to so easily 'keep track' of our children by this so called 'legal' stalking.
..America used up its sympathy card a long time ago, now nobody really gives a..
I agree alot with what you say..
But you have to admit, it is really not 'americans' fault.
I mean unless we go after these scumbags in power-- and I don't mean by voting or writing letters, nothing is going to change.
And even tho I probably have one of the biggest mouths around, even I'll admit that it is asking alot of people to take those first steps that will be required to remove them from power (not without much, much tragedy)..
What we neeeed to do, is take your thoughtful advice!
Why without your valuable input, we would never have realized, that it is nothing but OUR fault, that the system is failing,.. but for a very good reason!!
Which is, kind Sir, that the money that we pay for service, is going to line the pockets of a handful of Ceo's and investors, so they can continue on with their nighlty joints with 'Crack-Whores'.
Slashdot Mirror
Speaking of 'kidding'..
What I would add do this, is that you should hire the kid down the block who is probably hacking into the military or the next enron..
He would in fact probably be your best/cheapest, 'overall' best bet to come up to speed with linux's abilities and nuances. :)
Ah, an idea I finally agree with!
The FreeB&D at first gave me pause, but it will help him cut his teeth very well on Unix.
He will then find it a wonderful joy when he finally gets around to Linux proper!
Mac is going intel. When it is finally a reality (any day now, see the other article on the code to intel currently discussed on
And the details are here http://www.thinksecret.com/news/0509builds.html)
Everyone will be using Linux or Mac Os on their $100 pc's from china then.
And it should not matter whether he 'knows' mac hardware or not, I mean, what is the difference between knowing an intel based pc video card, or a mac one? Negligible I would think in this case.
Not all have become 'big & bloated'. That's the beauty of OSS, there are millions of distros this chap can play with until he finds something that is right for him.
And I still can't believe your suggesting he dump X (gui) altogether!

No, 'The People' are the final arbiters..
And 'WE', The Voters, SAY!!..
Trace your InterNet Providers #..
Hunt you down..like the animal you are..
And bring you to justice..
To set an example of what happens to 'Government-mouth- pieces-of-crap', like you...
When they encourge crimes by the U.S. government, against it's people. :)
Fortunately when it 'all-comes-down'.. we won't have to "DEAL WITH" people like you, because the first type of people the U.S. government will kill, are the spineless, parroting, arse-kissers 'like you'.
