You know, I'm getting sick of people screaming about equality, and how so-and-so minority doesn't meet this spec, and so and so minority isn't on the same level as this other group of people..
Yes, we're all equal, then, we aren't. I can't rap for the life of me, i'm just an average white boy, I can't jump either. I can't cook well, I certainly do not have the social ties or the culture that I see in a lot of minority groups all I have is what I've worked to aquire myself, Knowledge. Pretty much what I'm saying is that no matter what the color, we all have the -capacity- to be 'equal' but you know, I think some of us just don't want to be, maybe there are black americans that just don't WANT to screw around with computers, they're happy with their lifestyle and their education, and what they do, and they're good at what they do, when I probably suck at it.
As for this article, I look around at my coworkers and have to say that it's total BS. I work in a company that prides itself on the fact that it has tapped the great resources in the masses of america, all of america, the red, yellow, black, white, orange and plaid.
Maybe if people will STOP looking at America as being comprised of a lot of groups of people of different colors we'll be able to get somewhere and stop worrying about discrimination damnit, I think the only reason the children even have an inkling of discrimination is because they hear about it so much, and they see it from their parents, it WILL go away if we just stop making it such a big deal, it seems now to just be something to bitch and whine about. heh.
Why would you use -j2 unless you have a very small amount of memory... if you have say, 128 megs, try -j 9, if you have 64, try -j5, if you have more than 128 (yes, including swap) try just plain ole -j and watch it fly =) (no, this cannot damage your system, dont worry)
Hehe, you should try driving through Seagoville on 175 into Dallas, there's this sign: "Seagoville, the city of oppertunity" and directly behind it is a state prison, a rather large one at that, with the razor wire and miles worth of fence =)
Heh! I got 3 convictions, but now I got two speeding tickets in New York, good thing I'm moving here and Texas doesn't have a points system, NY just said that I'd get a conviction stub (?) for when i get tickets... also, both of those tickets got downgraded to ignoring a traffic control device (yay!)
Actually, I'm viewing it from work (Windows NT 4.0) in MSIE, and it still looks like crap with the question marks.. Come on guys, at least reformat these articles before posting them.
The problem, is that the 'whois' program connects, internic spews their agreement, then whois sends the query without waiting for the user to accept/cancel the agreement, I'm sorry to say it but I see no problem with the way internic has done this.
Slashdot Mirror
the net has enough of this =P

Wow, I just moved to Rochester and didn't know we had anything worthwhile up here =P
I kind of miss living in Texas with id software basicly down the road from where I worked, Dallas is a really nice place =)

Anyone notice, that while talking about frame relay, they have a Centronics (SCSI/Printer) cable
picture on the article?
So car companies should make it so you can't put
a radio or air conditioner in their car if you buy the model that comes without them...
hmm, ok. =)
I want more info though...
