Well as you're 'Speaker of the truth,' I guess nobody likes the always on connection, modem latency isn't a problem, and people don't need the phone line free to talk to people.
You used to be able to download the 'Network Admin' version of SP2. It was ~300MB, but it gave you the whole thing in one file. It was easy for off-line installs.
I haven't had to deal with WSUS for a year so my memory is a bit flaky. There was an article that showed you how to get the names out of the SQL server tables that WSUS uses. Google should find it.
I have an easy one to start with. I forget where I got this idea. Put a #2 Phillips driver on the table and ask them what it is and what it's used for.
Absolutely, that and working conditions are a large part of the problem. When a good teacher can get a better job elsewhere, you're left with the people who can't.
Yeah, but making teachers isn't as hard as keeping them. We have huge problems with retention. Having a teacher survive the first five years is hard. This proposal may keep them for four.
The way I hear it, the new Star Wars was the prototype for a lot of what's being done to D&D 4. A lot of the other games designers were worried about rumors that WotC would not be providing 4 under the OGL. Now they can sell all new D&D 4 versions of all the books.
Every time a new version comes out, there are groups that stay on the old rules. I even know of people who will now start buying 3.5 because it's 'complete.'
One of the odd things I've noticed about gamers is that the longer they've been playing, the less rules they want or need.
This one seems to be about people being able to move data around on removable storage. Why does a college have a problem with this?
We had a situation at work where we had to lock down the floppy drives on machines because people might steal stuff. The fact that they also had email and web access didn't make any difference to the people making the policy.
Were you using the word fucking as an adjective or a verb? If it's a verb, and given that you are Adult Film Producer, have you produced any evidence of this? There are several South Pacific markets that want to know.
Might as well block them as well because they won't see the ads. And better get the text browsers, phones and anyone who uses an ad-blocker for IE.
Sounds like one of the pinheads who thinks he has a god-given right to ad revenue. That, or it's someone who has a reason to beat up firefox. I wonder who that could be.
Actually it was computer games and CCGs, like Magic: the Marketing. These took a lot of money out of the market and caused several companies to close down.
Elves, dwarfs and halflings in D&D were run as classes because the system only had classes and no rules for races. Old D&D (not advanced) was a much simpler set of rules wasn't as heavy as the modern versions. If you're poking around for used versions get the Rules 'Cyclopedia because it pretty much covers the whole game in one book.
Did you know that SJG has put out 4th edition GURPS? This pissed a lot of people off, especially the guys who had spent a lot of time in 3rd ed and got all the bugs worked out. I've got 4th ed now and it's actually a nice update. The sort of thing WotC was supposed to do with D&D 3, 3.5 and 4.
I've seen this before. It's also called streaming in some places. The major reason for it is to make timetabling easier. Think optimization problems with a much smaller set of choices.
I'm not saying that's the reason in this case, but any time a bureaucracy makes changes, look for the people whose jobs just got easier.

Well, if $50 is the CAL price for Server 2003 then they already have it. Look at WSUS.

I've always hated their desktops. I had a lot of trouble, but then most of the low-end consumer PCs aren't a lot of fun.
They do make reasonably good and damn cheap notebooks. My notebook, when I actually use it, is an Acer.
Yep, "No representation without compensation," is the new rule for politicians.
What happens next? President Cheney appoints his own VP?
Do it from work.

I thought it would be "First Post." I'm getting a disturbing image of a child raised by trolls.

My first thought was doing your own homework and not downloading existing papers. Copy and paste makes plagiarism really easy.
You're right, but it's better if they get a double dose than none at all. And this way all of the idiots they hang out with get it too.

OSRIC is trying to replicate 1st ed with OGL material. I've not given it a good look because AD&D isn't my thing.
