but which cab you get is up to the dispatcher, making the information available to you potentially useless.
true if you call, but most of the time when I get a cab I flag it down as it passes (NYC btw). What would make this useful is if a) there was a cell phone client (at a reasonable prive) and b) if it differentiated between a cab with a faire and one without.

arrrg, my post got cut off by accident, diddnt mean to hit submit. I was going to mention at an old job I once had a guy I knew changed his ID to a picture of a ham sandwich and the name to "Lunch" and walked around for a week before anyone even noticed.
it was noticed by a visitor who did an amazing double take while looking at his ID, amusing as all hell.
uhhh, yeah, we do (I'm one).
its a very big uni with very big comp sci and engineering programs, they get plenty of qualified people. Also, as I can personally attest to not having it, its open to more than just work study kids and thus reasonably competitive for the jobs. Pays well too:-P.
heh, nice. wouldnt work here though, they take the pic on campus, check against drivers license (and to make sure it matches you of course), all that good stuff...
true. You can reset your passwd at my college with SSN and DOB too, the extra securfity being that you have to go to a lab (like the one where I work) and use a specific comp that is always at the admin desk and cannot be used without supervision. When you log in with said info to change your password a big picture of you comes on the screen, if the you on the screen doesnt match the you changing the passwd we boot your sorry ass out of the center.
I agree actually. My g/f's father has the "comps are for WORK ONLY mentality". So much so that he gets pissed if she while home uses her laptop to watch a dvd on or play a game (after all he says, you can play games on the gamecube, watch movies on the dvd player, and save your expensive computer for work). I've never understood it, doesnt it make more sense that you can use the hardware for movies, games, AND work, thus getting more for your money out of 'em?
ah well, at least he can't bother her about it when she's at school:-P.

hmmm.... interesting but I don't buy it in this case.
If you're hosting a node for freenet, even if child porn is being passed through your node, you're not watching it so the argument you make doesnt work. There are other arguments that do, but yours doesnt.
this is also the guy who made dvd-playback possible on linux, which while it sounds unimportant, removed a major impediment to linux on peoples deskops.....
besides, he is doing good, if you want to bitch about the stuf he hasnt done yet, go work on the prob yourself, its not like you're paying him for his work....
ok, repeat after me, apple is a HARDWARE company. They make their money off their boxes, not the OS. Sure, they could reinvent themselves (like sun appears to be doing) and become a software company, but they don't have any vested interest to do that at this point, particulary not considering that the powerpc arch. seems to actually be gaining ground rather rapidly.
Also, that measly 3-4 % they have now is still a helluva lot of boxes, and they seem to be multiplying (anecdotal: the number of powerbooks I have seen in NYC recently have exploded, fact: see article).
While I'd love to see osx for x86 (might even tempt me to switch from debian on my desktop) I don't think its going to happen anytime soon, or at all.
AFAIK you can upgrade FC versions by changing the sources for yum and updating. While I dont personally run fedora (played with it with fedora 2 but I run a mix of debian and suse) I know plenty that do and thats the impression I got. SuSE does the same thing with yast and you can do a dist-upgrade on debian. If I'm wrong, you're welcome to correct me, but I dont think you need to do a complete re-install every 6 months with fedora.
you can run gaim on mac osx under X11, it runs perfectly fine. While I usually use adium on my powerbook because its Aqua native, I do have gaim installed and use it from time to time.
not sure about dvd player.app or itunes, but if your desktop is a linux machine you could do something like enable ESD and then use xmms or other open source programs to play your music with the destination as you desktop. Alternately you could use something like mpd to do a simillar thing.
a)I have no idea why this is insightful or even relevant. b)we have a minimum share limit on the DC++ hub in my school with an admin who's rather zealous about making sure people dont fake share. Seems to work pretty well.
hmmm.... my (debian) machine shows all the dependencies just fine, and apt-get install plone installs fine, along with all the zope dependents. I would suggest changing your apt sources file to use debians repositories, but I don't know enough about mepis to advise well. You should try the mepis' mailing lists (something which I'm sure, based on your reply, you're all ready doing). The fact that debian's sources install fine though does make good your comment about installation in mepis. GL with the problem.
have you tried running it as root? is it an privilege problem or dependancy. If you're going to make a statement like above, please provide more information. You might receive some help then.

come to think of it, prolly. Funny thing is, my father was in the back temple with the computer at that point :-P.
well, define new. When I got my powerbook I had just gotten my motorola v600, synced fine.....
10.3 is getting old now, I assume 10.4 will support more phones.

heh, true as that might be, if nothing else itll get posted to some bittorrent site, even if not intentially. We'll get to see it eventually.
good to know, as I said, I have little experiance with fedora. Thanks for the correction

in this case I probably would. The security features are really there for aim's marketability to corporate markets, so its probably reliable.
nah, apples to apples would be powerpc, this is clearly oranges to oranges....
here's to hoping somebody on /. publishes a torrent of this soon, I can't d/l from sun's link at all
