omfg, rustine is actually used as "patch". Just a couple of days ago I was trying to translate patch to a french listener (walloon actually, me being flemish/dutch).
I just trew in rustine since that's used as a patch on a bike tire, never thought it was actually correct
that's just lovely - put 2 links to ostg partners in blurb - get submission accepted because of free adspace for patners - end up slashdotting the site, so far for the free ads then, and i have no clue what other distro's you meant (suse, novell or redhat id guess)
I don't normally point out spelling or language errors as I am not a native english speaker myself, but it does tickle me when someone tries to be fancy talking french but doesn't get it right.
"on holiday to Bhutan and can't find a bureau de change " it's a "bureau d'échange".
fyi, I'm not a french speaker either, I live in the dutch-speaking part of belgium and we have those chique french people with their poodles here too:)
if they are so much focused on speed, couldn't this be the mysql killer for web applications that don't need funky features but where concurrency and speed are important
I've been a dev on a project that had been outsourced to india and went terribly wrong. You can stop paying as soon as possible, but i doubt you'll get any money you already transfered back.
Instead of listening to that "my guys are working on it" tell them that you won't pay them any more and other guys will fix it. If your project is any like ours you will end up trying to fix it first, rewrite it later. Maybe you'd better rewrite it in house from the beginning.
In short: - Get it over to your country as soon as possible - you are pretty much fucked for what you've paid already - think twice before outsourcing again.
Disclaimer: - I'm not usually a anti-outsource troll, just felt compelled by the post. I live in europe where i suppose it's not as much of a problem. - I am sure there are decent indian software company's, I am confident that our customer just ran afoul of the wrong one.
The trick to this is "or flaws" and "or hole" and the like.
You get loads of results, and hope noone notices the results are generic when you click to the later SERPS (search engine result pages)
It's sold in modules (if you need crm you buy it, otherwise you don't, same for the web portal or business intelligence tools etc).
It's extremely customizable because of it's system with X++ (the language) and the AOT/morphX environment. You get easy (object oriented) access to the code of almost everything that's in standard axapta except the kernel (base features, X++ implementation...), but every form or report you see has the X++ code right there for you to look at or modify.
I've seen it compared to great plains here, but I've worked with that and there isn't much similarity. GP is more aimed at financial stuff and is loads more crappy than axapta.
Having said that I can't think what microsoft's plans could be. They are buying a whole lot of Business Solutions (and selling them through their MBS channel) but there is so much overlap and I don't see how they could merge it all into a single good ERP platform.
MBS products:
Axapta
MS CRM
Great Plains
Navision
Solomon
All do more or less the same, but are from different acquisitions so are probably hard to merge because of a fundamental design difference
"Those who can use iptables Those who can't use Windows ICS, and a router" That sorta proves you don't know what you are talking about. a router would do the NAT so there's no need for ICS, maybe you meant ICS and a hub.
I wasn't implying that you shouldn't use old equipment for a NAT server and that iptables/freeswan/etc surpass most cheap routers.
But if you allready have your nat box, why would you collect stuff to build another one, and then another and another.
I suppose you are talking about a home setup, and I don't suppose you are working with a gazillion DMZ's.
If I had a penny for every time someone told me that......
How many nat servers are you building then? how much are you actually using? And above all why would you want noisy, power hungry old boxes when a router can be had for almost nothing
Do you mean spamvrij.nl? the ones who never answered my mail when I got spam originating from holland (from an obviously shady company which changed domains every few months etc)
Maybe they only respond to ppl living in the netherlands (as I am belgian)
both have a server version too, which is quite different than what you describe. they're called virtual server and gsx server iirc (too lazy to look them up)
I'm not disputing that, but it's just a little easy to post a "while(true) do crap" comment to criticize windows, you can just as easy crash a linux box with code like that
I don't know if the whole thing can be taken seriously, but a nice possible side effect could be that there would be no more expensive lawyers helping the rich out, but the poor guy could have an equal robot for free. No matter how much money you have, it's lawbot 1.2 vs lawbot 1.2 in court. Reminds me of pokemon but with robolawyers;)

it has to be VB, look at all the caps :)
don't you have enough alternatives?

Is it ok if I use elinks?
I like it because my scrollwheel works and i can click links inside my term window.
Or am I a lesser geek then?

Thats a rather cheap shot. If you google for microsoft security OR privacy flaw OR flaws OR hole OR holes you get 4 million results.
If you google for linux security OR privacy flaw OR flaws OR hole OR holes you get a little over 3 million.

Windows forms is still experimental in the current stable mono.

I don't see a reason to download several gigs of things I don't use, such as emacs. blasphemy I tell you :p
both have a server version too, which is quite different than what you describe.
they're called virtual server and gsx server iirc (too lazy to look them up)
thankx, that was sorta the summary i was looking for. :)
And whoever modded this offtopic probably confused this UML with the other UML
I'm using UML right now, is this comparable/interchangable, and what would be the benefits?
unless you're not at home, and when you return all your food is wasted because your frige and freezer were off for 8 hours
you should've used ERD commander to try and fix an XP install imo, there's a free emergency download edition
