Yesterday and had 3 people online with video and it worked fine, the problem with Skype Linux and windows is you sound like Mickey Mouse being hammered with a bat in the crotch when you don't have enough memory and horse power under the hood. When I upgraded to a 4 core all my linux/skype woes went bye bye also all the glitches you get on Linux side are all featured on the windows side as well.
Hey if they are stupid enough to force over time I'm mean enough to work it at 1.5 times my regular rate. My bosses did the same thing all after firing the most recent group of new hires to try to skew their data numbers to look better in the cash flow department. The consequence is with out the fired new guys we cant make our production numbers so now we're in mandatory over time. funny how that works out.
ya, it's always funny till you get your card jack'd for $2400.00, then it acrimony and histrionics time! But, of course, it'll never happen to you, right,,,,,,,,?
Unfortunately it will be for the follow on generation who will have a better handle on tech than the present who will have to correct a whole litany of laws written by the old business model operators to try to keep their model alive instead of using new technology to expand their positions, examples of what happens when you fail to innovate are apple Itunes versus SAM Goodies, Sam is out of business I believe.
How will SOPA affect the net??? I believe there will become two camps the innovation community and the stodgy old school camps with their own independent DNS hierarchy. It will be interesting to see the outcome, the stodgy campers will undoubtedly sue and the innovators will have to try to buy out the old guard where they can and absorb them into revised/new corporate incarnations that are friendly to innovation.
News Flash! Generalisimo Francisco Franco is still Dead! After 32 years dead the general and dictator of Spain is still dead!, Oh, by the way so is WEBOS, this pawn off of the operating system to open source is, I'm betting, a tax write off, as a way to recoup a pointless buy of a dead operating system that they cant sell to some one else because, its dead Jim!?!!
stick a fork in it!
Actually not true, whats missing is the nations vision to past low earth orbit, as for the private sector the reason Elon Musk started SPACEX was to make money selling freight hauls to orbit , the iss or any where some one will pay the freight to, all so he can develop the technology to get to Mars himself. To be fair he's already launched the Dragon which cost him $300,000,000.00 to design and fly (Dec 8th 2010) its an interesting story all by itself, read it yourself;
http://www.spacex.com/
Sadly this is true, even after Spacex flew the dragon in December 2010 after the NASA program it was competing with ARIES was cancelled. And their still trying to bring home bacon to morton thiokol. its sad.
The constellation & Aries may be gone but there are replacements for them, & yes they most definitely are out sourced designs, see http://www.spacex.com/F9-001.php Oh yeah & its in orbit right now! thats 15 years ahead of constellation / Aries.
This is bigger than you realize, yes nasa did it in 1964 in what is essentially a lewis & clark type exploration project, the mercury / gemini / apollo series of flights.
This is different than 1964 its akin to the opening up of the railway systems in the east that eventually lead to the transcontinental railway. Spacex is just the first company to get there under their own steam. Yes they have government contract, but they developed their own medium lift vehicle powerful enough to launch a man rated space craft into orbit. that is the Dragon space capsule. They did it all in house at a fraction of the cost of the defunct Aries & constellation projects. The dragon now needs to go through a full vetting process to get it man rated but even then it will take 3 years, that will still beat the first full up test flight of the Aries by 3 years[nasa's best guess]. The best part of this is it was done privately for a fraction of what the public sectors failed attempts cost.
The Republicans, well, they are just upset the Democrats killed Aries thats why they are kvetching on this, I say if Elon wants to win this hands down, press to get the dragon man rated in 18 months. As there are plans to get the Constellation project restarted already afoot
By the time Ares I/Orion program was cancelled earlier this year, the schedule had already slipped five years to 2017 & a full development would have cost another $50 billion. Further, the cost per flight, with estimated overhead, was figured to be at least $1.5 billion each this compared to the $1 billion each for a Shuttle flight, this while lifting only four people to Shuttle's seven & little or no cargo.
Cancellation was therefore a matter of time & thankfully the president had the political guts to do the right thing for once. The problem that you see in the media is the claim there is no immediate replacement. The reality is there is a civilian alternative being pushed & it is the same replacement the president looked at when he went to pad 41 at Cape Canaveral launch station & looked at the flight ready vehicle from Spacex, owned by Elon Musk.
According to the media the replacement is years away, the reality is the media missing this story. The replacement, is the first flight ready articles of 2 pieces of equipment the Spacex Falcon 9 medium Launch vehicle which on its maiden flight, is already mated to the Dragon Spacecraft. The two items are already at the Cape awaiting the final sign off by the Air Force range safety office & by NASA. That's all that is keeping it on the ground, not a pie in the sky development program that hasn't started yet, this one is 75% complete at this point, that means we have the hardware development mostly complete, all that is needed is permission to launch to prove its viability. Then obviously it will need a series of flights to work off the knee cards if you will & get it man rated, yes that will take years. But not that many years.
if you don't believe me, go here & research it yourself; http://www.spacex.com/updates.php
this needs to be refiled under thank you mister obvious:
the cause of this malady is the blood rushing out of the big head to the little head Duh, come on people!
This is like "FW Snort" except it is deployed to communicate to peers world wide where FW Snort only works on the LAN, but it is similar, maybe it would be a good place to start with this idea
You're correct, they aren't responsible, if, it's a proper credit card, the point is the credit card company's are on the hook for these charges and yes they will pass these expenses back to you and me some how.
Slashdot Mirror
their not funnies they're punnies
Riiiight,,,,?
Welcome Back from the DEAD Project PLUTO, except with out the nuclear powered ram jet, yeah google it I dare ya.

ahh how the mighty have started the long slip to no where
dude have a heart, publish a link to where you got it?

Excellent!! Now my Mutant Armys can be remote controlled !!
ya know I liked Kelly Johnsons work immensely but I just haven't trusted Lockheed in the last 30 years I really cringed when they got the contract.

they are no more productive than I am, but they get paid a fraction of what I get paid, hence their desirability
woo hoo Go Cav!
