    Biatch. You couldn't handle my nuts if I shipped them to your mutha and you ended up the progeny of that basement experiment. Oops. Cats out the bag.
    You support freaks are the one funny thing that occurred every day on that job. :)

    Fanatical is an inside joke with the people who actually do the work, the Data center techs. I'll tell you one thing. Support doesn't do sh!t but talk to the customer and deal with OS issues that can't be resolved in fifteen minutes...If they can, which is always a dubious proposition. The FBI interventions are always handled with the utmost fear and turmoil by DCOPS and any issues are laid on them. Have some sympathy and have some respect for guys building ,installing,maintaining and managing a huge heterogeneous network with half ass tools and a CYA attitude from the top on down.

    I would ask no-one and make up my mind based on the same extrapolations you use to justify consulting 'experts'.

    Perl is a pointless departure by an early gen visionary with glistenings of false deity upon his bald head in the un-air>conditioned env of the dataplex. Perl is without a doubt structured so a$$holes can find something to love and adopt, because that's all I've seen parading it's abilities in public.

  5. Re:Delphi from VBasic?? on The History of Programming Languages · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    You know for some data oriented reason I still
    think of C++ as a 'stupidset' of C.
    After reviewing the apis and interfaces using
    C++ that are readily available to inquiring
    minds I believe it more than ever.
    You know shit like this was going on long
    before Stroustrop got jock itch over
    it.

    typedef struct greatidea {
    int anal_type;
    char *stupidmsg;
    void *(*consolidate_my_ass)(void *);
    } CLEVEROBJECT;

    All that C++ did, does, and makes is
    a data congested framework full of
    indigestible types influenced by the
    mode of the day.
    Java and C# suffer from the impenetrability
    of multiple archetype syndrome.

    As far as IDES go. Man what a sucker play for money. What jerkoff worth his weight can't
    write his owen after a year and a half?

    They seem like Freuds children guessing at
    how much better the next generation will
    be at ignoring their mom in the tub.

    Logical progression of 'fail for profit'
    software engineering. Practiced by the
    most reviled bunch of corporate a$$hats on the
    planet.

    You've got to admire success, but really
    scrutinize people capitalizing on failure.
  7. Re:weapons in space on Weapons in Space · · Score: 1
    Okay, I'll speculate and draw some bad conclusions too. Maybe I'll get a +5.
    1.Try shooting lasers through nice fluffy clouds of water vapor and other less identifiable elements.
    2.We have nukes..why not put them in orbit? Hell , that fits right in with your laser theory. X-ray suitcase sized lasers powered by low yield nuclear detonations. Sound familiar? Star wars anyone?
    3. The USA has enough technology and money to put together a replacement for the SR-71, but guess what..'they' haven't. 'They' don't need to be stealthy at all anymore except when it comes to justifying huge war debts.
    4.Why do we have submarines that can deliver nuclear missiles when we have ICBM's and myriad other delivery platforms for our nukes?
  8. Re:The bad side of course... on Weapons in Space · · Score: 1
    I suggest in turn that you read a good account of the Korean war. MacArthur was a fire eater and was consistently wrong in his political forecasts. The russians had involved themselves quite actively in the war(Who were flying the nice Mig15s that gave the US such a shock?), and were determined that China should not be punished for it's intervention in Korea. There is an excellent chance that what you suggest would have led to a nuclear exchange that would have killed millions of people and led to yet another bloody world war.

    Erm..wrong.

    Primal warmongering mindset? Hostile and primitive societies?

    This is not so surprising in historical perspective. Look at WWII's pacific campaign and the ability of fanatical individuals to prepare themselves against overwhelming odds. Too bad for the politicians that OBL isn't quite as drunk on rice wine or as suicidal as the nips.

    And the cameras and radar guns on the stoplights in your community? These aren't intrusive enough already without monitoring devices in your owned vehicle? Perhaps they should just license the vehicle design to us and allow us physical use as long as we are responsible little drivers?
    Is it just me or has the world gone completely parental, overweening and impossibly retentive of information that is 'nobody's business' in the last four/eight or so years?

    Try SUS in house and configuring your vulnerable machines to use a testbed in-house addressing scheme that limits where they can go and what they can do. Sure it's not panacea but it is a way to be a responsible windows admin.
