I tried Life of Brian, Holy Grail, some of the Flying Circus stuff.
Didn't like any of those. Watching one or two of the individual skits is OK, but going through the whole thing is unbearable.
I think Cleese's best work is Fawlty Towers. I have watched each episode of Fawlty Towers atleast 15 times - that has to be my all time favourite sitcom.
Did you try the extended release Metformin - for many people that has lesser side effects than the regular one. The most common side effect of Metformin is an upset stomach & lots of farting. But usually that subside after a month or so.
Metformin is really a wonder drug - if possible every diabetic should take it - It's the one of the few diabetic medication which doesn't make you put on weight. It usually results in a 3-4 pound weight loss.
- It never causes low blood sugar.
- It's cardioprotective. Diabetics on metformin reduce their chances of getting a heart attack.
It help starting with a very low dose of Metformin ER - say Metformin 500 Extended Release once a day for a couple of weeks to see how it works for you - if you haven't already tried the ER yet - then you can keep increasing dose - 750, 1000, 1500, 2000 till you find the maximum dose you can tolerate.

In my opinion, Agile is a great tool for managers, not developers. Every manager in the end wants to ask for status reports every day. But they can't do so, because people working for them will be upset. Agile is an excellent way for Managers to ask for status reports everyday.
In my opinion, TDD (test driven developement) is the only good thing about Agile.
Nice young lady(NYL) comes up to you. Obviously you want to create a good impression, you don't want to look a fool, do you? So she starts asking you some questions: NYL : Are you unhappy with slow speeds on your internet connection? You : Yes, of course.
NYL : Would you be acceptable to solutions to solving the congestion problems on the Internet? You : Yes, of course.
NYL : So you would support traffic shaping as long as customers are treated properly? You : Yes, of course.
Now, if you wanted the opposite results
NYL : Do you believe that consumers like you should be in control of the internet or your ISP You : The consumer, of course.
NYL : Do you think Broadband providers should be able to use their Market power to control
online activity? You: Of course, not.
NYL : So you oppose traffic shaping by ISP's? You : Yes, of course.
- The liver would be soldered to Steve's heart. - You would have to send Steve to God to get his liver replaced. - The new liver would cost around 50% of what it would cost to buy a new Steve.
No one ever said Microsoft had a monopoly on all PCs. In fact, Apple has quite a sizable share of the PC market. Rather, MS has a monopoly on all Windows PCs.
Yes. Sort of like how Toyota has a monopoly on all Camrys.
This article was amended on Friday 3 April 2009. Maurice Jarre died on 28 March 2009, not 29 March. We opened with a quotation which we are now advised had been invented as a hoax, and was never said by the composer: "My life has been one long soundtrack. Music was my life, music brought me to life." The article closed with: "Music is how I will be remembered," said Jarre. "When I die there will be a final waltz playing in my head and that only I can hear." These quotes appear to have originated as a deliberate insertion in the composer's Wikipedia entry in the wake of his death on 28 March, and from there were duplicated on various internet sites. These errors have been corrected.
I must say that using Linux (manpages and all) has taught me a stack of confidence, logical thinking, problem solving skills etc as well as a lot about computers in general and how they run. I even run a PC repair business now as well as setting up free Linux boxes for disadvantaged students.
I am not sure that's an argument for or against chosing Linux. For eg. I was looking for a brand of TV to buy & someone said - "Buy this cheap chinese brand - it has taught me logical thinking, problem solving as well as a lot about Televisions in general & how they work. I have even setup up a TV repair business after owning this brand of TV for 2 years" - I would run away from that brand of TV.
I tried to access the floppy drive. Eventually gave up, and re-installed Windows. That was 1998. I finally installed Debian Aug 2006 and it's been running on this machine ever since.
So basically you just waited for floppy drives to get obsolete?
Google paid around 30 Million Dollars for buying Urchin Software whose product it originally was. Maybe if you could buy that division from Google & open source it. That'd be sweet.

TLS 1.0 is based on SSL v3. TLS 1.0 is also called SSL 3.1 sometimes.
There isn't really a huge difference between TLS & SSL 3.0.
