I just loved that. I think the kids were using and Apple GS. I mean can I say that here? This is interesting in that is predates the major wave of open source that we can freely copy.
I am pretty sure it is time for me to seriously consider putting the IT scum sector behind me for good. I'm sure there is more career satisfaction in being a garbage man. At least people appreciate your efforts;-)
I have been hearing this fusion is just around the corner crap for at least the last 20 years. Even my own school (University of Rochester) had a massive laser lab for doing fusion research. I had more than a passing interest in this since I was a Navy Nuclear Operator.
I suspect that the old supplies are using simple linear components. The typical design calls for voltage regulation to be done by an active element. This causes some(a bunch) waste as heat disipation.
Newer technique: switching power supplies. The output is actually across a capacitor. It's voltage is sampled and if it diverges from the desired, the pulse width of the square wave it is fed by is modulated. Essentially, you give the capacitor more charge if the voltage drops. Capacitors tend to resist a change in voltage across them. There is less heat lost using this scheme since the pulse is either on or off.
I agree. I find the show a nice distraction from my totally crappy life;) I mean what are all of the complaniers really bitching about? Do they think this series is going to change their lives; make them rich or popular with the ladies? It ain't gonna happen. I take the show for what it is. Simple entertainment. They make argue that, it is, in fact, not entertaining. To them I say "...So don't watch."
Probably the best way is to get tenure at an academic institution. Other than that your choices are to be a successful self employed go getter, or work for the government.
You are confusing radiation with contamination retard. Think of contamination as the shit, and radiation as the stink smell off of the shit. Nuff Said.
Those awful Canadian Accents...
on
Taken?

I really don't mind if these sci-fi production companies chooose to film in Canada because it is cheaper. However, I really get freakin irritated when their Canadian actor's hideous accents wreck the mood. I mean these are supposed to be Texans, and people from Las Vegas. It sounded like I was watching CNBC.
I have yet to get involved with any of these projects. I hear a ton of press about how great JBoss is. Does using struts mean I don't need to wory about using something like JBoss?
OMG, I just came from the Alumni Weekend up there. What a small world. We used to have problem with security when I was living in Phase. We lived in Slater (top floor) and would torment the frat (Phi tau) with a water baloon sling shot whenever we got bored. They would send up their pledges to try and screw with us, but those door have great locks on them. We also build a home made 500 watt per channel amp, with big assed speaker (tm) that we would blast till late into the night. The cops would come by becuase people across the river would complain.
Ahh... those were the days. Have a pint at the OLD TOAD for me dude.
With all of the assaults on music and such.... it seems like now is the time to scoop up some nice used analog gear. You have your reel to reel tape, audio cassette, etc. Ultimately, the sound still has to become analog before you can hear it. (This may change in the future I'm sure) IT may not be ideal but at least I will have my music without some company breathing down my neck.
Calm down stress boy. I love the new world of polital correctness and no humor. It makes it even easier to spot the tight asses. They are always most annoyed by sarcasm;)
Give me a break. I mean what is 1!(Factorial)? 1. One usually has special properties afforded to it so that all of those goofy power series formula work out.
I would also add that SAP-DB's replication amounts to bulk data loadign and unloading with it's Replication Manager. Umm... I prefer the Replication model that Microsoft SQL server uses where there are publishers and subscribers, and it proceeds aomewhat automatically once set up. I mean calling bulk data load/unload replication boggles my mind. It must be a German thing;)

Thank you.

I agree. People who comlain about "bloat" make me nuts. I wish they would just shut the hell up.

Wake me when they get it working.
I never liked Poul's name.
Well since you asked....

I'm of the opinion that a clusterfuck is not a bad thing. Think of how effieiently it provides pleasure to so many at once ;)
Shut your pie hole moron. The US is NOT a Democracy. It is a Representative Republic. Big difference. I weep for the future.

Well stated! I even learned a little about how the various languages handle this task. I wish more posts on Slashdot were this informative.
I am shocked to see Scheme doing so well. At 1% it is ahead of Python. I mean that can't be right .. hehe

Thank you for yor time.

Is this sale to be the friday after thanksgiving? And is this in any Walmart or just online at walart.com?

I was so excited about getting it, that my first wife actually bought it for me. I never did buy all the games for it though. Ahh nice memories.
