I'm a Christian. The earth is actually about 10,000 years old and dinosoars are not a hoax, they are described clearly in the Old Testament. It would be silly to think such a thing since there is tons of evidence that they existed.
Jesus and his disciples were walking down the path when all of the sudden a BIG BRONTOSAURUS with a splinter and his paw. The disciples ran screaming 'what a big fucking lizard' but jesus was unafraid. He removed the splinter and they remained friend.
From the man himself
i love keeping up with ximian gnome.
havings to jump through a gazillion hoops to keep up with evolution and nautilus as well has proven suckly.
looking forward to hoopless upgrade goodness.
seriously.
I don't understand people griping about 'who linux is meant for' and going off about how it's meant to be used by hackers and admins, etc... Like, what up? If you need a gui-centric environment then you deserve to use an OS that costs money? Whatever! A shell is only a click away for me if I need it, and I kind of dig 'applets' like mini-commander (and I'm sure kde and other wm's have equivelent tools) that allow me to issue a quickie command if I need it. But what I love about linux is that at the end of the day the kernel can be used underneath whatever purpose it need be.
Reminds me of that dvorak piece in the unix haters handbook regarding absurd zealotry and unix.
I was immediately concerned that the actual captain on the cereal box was going to change when reading the subject. Further reading revealed no such trauma.
I'm glad I did it just from an educational standpoint, and what the heck - a pervious job paid for it. Helped round out my knowledge for the real world (although, obviously, I only learned a tip of the Iceberg more than there is to learn, duh). Getting the rhce did at least help me catch the eye of another employer, although I think the interview meant more to them than being and rhce - employers just don't seem to be as hip to a linux cert as opposed to the ms thing.
It was pretty cool. The test was divided in three sections, a multiple choice (which for me was the hardest part), a troubleshooting section where they give you four floppies that install broken systems over nfs which you must diagnose the problem and then fix it, and a server installation set up where they describe a server with certain nfs, samba, apache, user/quota, etc. criteria. It was pretty fun, and the four days of crash course leading to the test when I guy from red hat came out were definitely worthwhile.
There were a bunch of people from sgi there that seemed to struggle from having to forget about how things went on irix. That was interesting - I'd only had limited solaris before I got into linux on my own (about a year and a half prior to the training), so I looked at that as an advantage.
The course prep materials were pretty cool, but I didn't get them six weeks ahead of time like the study guide is laid out - it was like work said "your getting redhat certification training next week - take this box of stuff and cram this weekend".
Other people were nervous about taking it, but I think that the thing to do is go out and get drunk and getting in a fight with your girlfriend (or s.o. or whatever) and show up hung over for testing. Take the edge off of the test environment. I'm serious!!!
One thing though, I did this under redhat 6.1, and 7 is so different that I wonder how long the cert will be 'good'.
y'know - i have a few domains that are about to be up for renewal, and have moved since i last had my nic handle address updated. been trying to get the address changes and it won't take. when i try to modify via the email form i get a response about 'consolidating multiple' handles for domains' when all i'm trying to alter is changes the address on one handle so the invoice doesn't fall through the cracks. it'd been a while since i dealt with network solutions - i'm surprised it's become more of a hassle than before now that there's competition.
bozos.
i'm down in texas. a friend of mine has been temping with them for like 3 years, and he always seem to have some 'interview to work for microsoft lined up. and it never comes through and yet he's still 'working for microsoft'. of course he's just doing tech support and he's bi-lingual so they bs him about interviewing for the i18n jobs, but - blu - i dunno, seems like he's kind of getting fucked.
big thank you to the asshole who moderated this down. if you had read the book before you spurted your mod point you may have gone the other direction. fuck you for your support.
looks very cool.. but . "large 7 inch display".. I see mention of an audio out but nothing about video - that would frustrate the hell out of me if it didn't.
btw, i have an apex 600a, and i've been basically happy with it, but it seems to lose sync slightly on longer titles......
so far so good. it imported all my 4.61 stuff seamlessly. The full install is about 43.6 mb though! Fonts don't seem exactly right, but not obnoxiously so.

How about 6 virtual terminals under linux as well as countless terminal emulators available.
Gawd - really!
You can get a linksys router and dsl for a year for the price of that thing!!
hate to say this... but... 45k ain't shit if you can: a) breathe in _any_ state in the U.S.... and b) demonstrate a sembelance of unix skills......

thanks for the killer link!
look like it's for osX based systems and nothing previous. guess that makes sense in a way - love to have a gimp that ran under os 9.
a port to the mac?!!! gimp is killer on win32 - give adobe something to _really_ worry about.....

dude, i've been checking your stuff out for a while, and you most certainly should have your own parrot section here. keep it up!!
big thank you to the asshole who moderated this down. if you had read the book before you spurted your mod point you may have gone the other direction. fuck you for your support.
wow, that's not a bad idea - but does the refresh keep up?
'scuze me - too early, upon a second glance it does say that it has standard video out - so - cool! anyone play with one yet?

what is with this 'cloud' business.
I was hoping, when I was reading that submission, that Desdinova77 was having trouble getting to the site due to wrist problems. Imagine my chagrin!
so far so good. it imported all my 4.61 stuff seamlessly. The full install is about 43.6 mb though! Fonts don't seem exactly right, but not obnoxiously so.
i'm buying 'can' on my phone! oh shit i just bought air supply!
God may sue over prior art.
Can someone explain how SDMI will counter mp3 'piracy' in the slightest?
Unless physical media goes away it doesn't seem possible.....
