Yes, it's all java. I should have been more clear - the JRE 1.1.18 that Oracle Applications will download is triggered by an ActiveX control.
As is the entire AIM (Application Implementation Methodology) suite.
The eCommerce suite (CRM, iStore, iSupplier Portal, et al) avoids this issue entirely, as would an alternate method to download the JRE.
But the "standard" implementation of Oracle Apps wil require opening the security settings wide like I said.
So if historically our presidents have broken the law and trampled on our rights, we should just let it slide in the name of tradition?
I view intelligence activity as an iceberg - most of it is hidden beneath the surface. That which pokes out normally indicates something much larger lurking beneath the surface.
Stop playing the fucking cheerleader, it's unbecoming.
"In case that's not enough to explain it to you, consider that the Moon is much smaller than Jupiter, but appears to be larger because it's much nearer."
Sounds an awful lot like witchcraft, if you ask me. I think we should burn you and the moon, just to be sure.
It's probably a pain the the ass to grow specific strains of algae. But as an aquarium owner, hell yes it's easy to grow algae. The trick is NOT growing algae.
Both the Tekken and Virtua Fighter series has aspects of this.
I agree w/the daughter poster who talks about the ease of use factor in DOA . . . it really is a basic game and simple to pick up.
Tekken and VF are both more "rewarding" to the hard core who want to take the time to learn nuance. DOA series is a great party-type series because the learning curve is shallow enough so that every match is relatively reasonable.
Powerstone, other than a few niggling balance issues, was simply a fantastic paradigm shift* in fighting games. Many a night was spent beating the hell out of my friends on this game. So very sweet.
* of course I shuddered saying something so business-whorey. But it's accurate, damnit.
I did it because I found it interesting that a common misspelling (genious) was actually correct in this case, which is counterintuitive.
I actually looked it up as I was interested. And rather than waste that 20 seconds of my life in dictionary.com, I decided to share it with all of you, compound the waste into weeks.
genes and the like are patentable, as well. (working on a new breast cancer treatment? Careful, you could be infringing on Pfizer's ownership of the cancer itself!)
Ironically, if you get colon cancer you could be illegally duplicating patented material.
Congress passed it because they were fearful of being painted soft on terrorists. None of them read the act prior to its passage.
Most of the more draconian parts of it, the parts that erode our rights, have been attempted legislation in the past. But without a national crisis such as 9/11 it wasn't going to pass. Why do you think that is?
WRT investigations - the concern is a military tribunal can seize you, try you, and execute you, without telling anyone they've even taken you. Keeping an ongoing investigation secret isn't the purpose of the act; that's already adequately covered.
And finally - the whole PATRIOT apologetic behavior is old as hell. The 9/11 commission conclusions were that we are woefully underprepared to defend against another attack, and the organizational issues still exist. PATRIOT has not made an appreciable difference in this, while at the same time it has severely curtailed our rights and laid the baseline for a police state of horrifying power.
Comedians write off EVERYTHING.
Seriously, EVERYTHING,
A feature comic (the middle act; you're anywhere from 2-10 years into comedy) makes around $15-23k a year gross. They write off a donut, their mileage, their shaving cream they bought on the road, everything. 1099 baby.
The expense report is them reporting it to the IRS. The same purpose we have expense reports. (well, that and someone pays us back what we spent. Hooray for companies!)
It could be one of the toughest and loneliest existences out there, the road comic. 50 weeks a year moving from town to town. Playing shitty gigs too, if you're a middle comic. No real "oomph" perhaps. Maybe a Premium Blend credit getting you into an A club or two.
Put it this way: when Columbus, OH is considered a great gig (the Funny Bone) in your chosen industry, perhaps you've picked the wrong industry. OK if beer pong were an industry that would probably be based in Columbus, too. And technically LA is pretty nifty as well, and New York is different from the road comics too.
take a deep breath, Bitter. Relax. Don't get carried away.
I'm going to go mix a white russian. Telecommuting rules.
Who is setting the hours required for the project?
Is this part of the negotiation process?
Seems to me this is a novel way of paying employees, and isn't inherently fair or unfair.
It does strike me as a higher risk-reward ratio. If you've got a crystal clear statement of work (SOW) it wouldn't be a horrible way to do business as the worker.
Having a crystal clear SOW, though. . . that's the rub.
I'll let you know when I see my first one without weasel words like "other duties" or worse.

In fact, Oracle Apps downloads are unsigned, untrusted. You have to open the browser (and it must be IE) pretty dern wide to use it.
easy shroedinger's cat joke . . . must not succumb to temptation

The gameplay, unfortunately, blew goats.

Unless I'm Leon. Then you'll just cry and cry.

Just another brilliant concept failing miserably in execution.
You'd be looking for the next PowerStone for that.
It's reasonably close to that description, anyway.
But if you have a need for an automated file transfer, why would you do it over an IM client?

And it's blatantly. No e.
Good post, though, and I agree.

The student encouraged others to refresh a web page. Not a felony, AFAIK.
Well, maybe it wasn't earlier. . . ;)
(paraphrased) - whatever you bought online this year you owe us taxes for. Please fill out the cash you spent in this little box and send it in.
Guess how many people actually volunteer that information? ;)

A game shipping seems to qualify under gaming news in my boat.
Technically he can run and be elected as he wasn't elected in 2000.
*grins*
*ducks out of way of flame war*
Thanks for the explanation, this is news to me. Will look into it this week when I have the time.
