and this is old also im not sure if it shows off some of the best features like being able to 'shrink' all windows down so they all fit on the screen at once so you can easily see/pick between them, or you can select between windows of only a certain type
also the alt-tab shows a preview of what that window looks like before you switch to it which is great
the 3D 'cube' for desktops is much cooler than anything the other two have going (desktop switch wise i mean)
only one guy mentions it on the whole thread (and called it Xgl, which isnt even needed anymore)
i coulda sworn when i was a kid there was occasionally a cool day, even in the summer
now its so damn hot all the time;) its the end of september and 100 degrees outside in the shade, yesterday i came home and a neighbor cat was passed out panting in my driveway! (had to park my hummer in the street!, which took up half the road..)
just when i think humanity cant get any dumber someone goes and comes up with an idea like this

i used curl i made the php submitting code like im supposed to, submitted resume and source and the other info, but it complains about a bad hash.. i used the hash from their form and it didnt work, i tried hashing all kinds of thigns, tried hashing my resume,, tried hashing my source
tried hashing their hash..
no matter what it says bad hash.. have you gotten it to work?
according to his explaination any differences between what he said would happen, and reality could be because we are now on a different worldline;) like another dimension
the things i think are stupid about his story is he claimed that every jump had a 50% chance of destroying you;) so why would you make 2 extra jumps for fun? thats like.. retarded
also even if he was successful theres no way to know if he would be jumping back to a worldline that even needed the computer, theres no way to get back to the worldline you left from.. therefore.. its retarded;)
its interesting how when they make a patch that corrupts your data you dont hear anything from them.. but when someone makes a program to allow fair use by opening DRM on their movies they come up with a CRITICAL patch within ours to prevent it. i think that speaks to their priorities, protecting their drm IMPORTANT protecting your data hmm.. not so important
your all missing the point online gambling isnt illegal! (except in washington)
another interesting thing is american companies do illegal things in america EVERY DAY and their CEOs are almost NEVER arrested, instead the companies are fined/penalized or get away with it.. yet this guy is held personally responsible for something that MAY be illegal in the FUTURE... WTF??
whos racketeering here? the government is arresting these guys cause they dont pay protection (american taxes, cause they arent american companies!)
well if we ever get a president in office who cares about the public's opinion it will be EASY for him to get a high approval rating--just undo everything bush has done
it might be hard to get another president into office that actually cares about public opinion now though.. especially since the elections are rigged and actually getting popular votes isnt nessisary anymore
geez damn it this sucks.. i was having a good day then i saw this articles title and it felt like a friend had just died;(
they just put on their 200th episode and all this talk about how the show was still going strong and yadda yadda.. now they are cancelled? wtf..
stargate atlantis SUCKS i dont even watch that crap.. wtf how can stargate atlantis go on without SG-1..? is earth gonna get blown up in the series? then atlantis is on their own?
or will they have cameos from the SG-1 group every once in a while?
ive heard the expression "the lord works in mysterious ways" TONS of times from religious types
its something you tell yourself when you dont understand why bad things happen.. so.. they dont understand those mysterious things but its assumed that we know EXACTLY how other mysterious things happened? how presumptuous of man to think they he understands the lord mysterious ways
whos to say evolution isnt the way lord created man?
even the vatican admits that the bible isnt a scientific document
youve got the right attitude microsoft did sell you a defective product, grossly defective and now they are trying to 'change strokes in mid stream' which even the president has said you shouldnt do
hell YEA! you have a point i never really thought of it that way but now thats going to be my defense when my wife hounds me over playing too much wow;)
ya it definately is suspicious for.. years? now they have been trying to find more and more ways to spy on americans, and now they are tell us to apply a patch that supposedly closes a hole they could use to spy on us? did they not need it anymore? they found a better hole to exploit? or is the patch creating a more secure backdoor for them?
the subway is apparently part of the internet, cause its just a tube, in the series... i think

your damn right authoring in.net is shortsighted;) lately ive been developing with Qt, which is crossplatform. it works great on windows and linux and whatever else you might want to try it on (we release 32 and 64 bit versions of our product on windows, linux, solaris and irix, all from one codebase)
also if your going to do.net type of stuff why not use java? java is very similar to c# and is also cross platform
if your in love with flash you should at least be aware that if you are using higher than version 7 your cutting out potential visitors/customers
i used to program directly in win32 api, and in MFC, and have done COM/OLE/ActiveX, all of these old technologies dont really have much of a place in todays IT world, (winAPI is too low level, MFC is old, and.NET is all the rage now) but just like all of those techs.net is sure to fade into obscurity and non-use as soon as MS comes out with the 'next big thing' and hypes it at the expense of everything else, then developers are expected to run out and learn this new shit, get recertified, pay more money for all of this crap..
instead of getting into.net i got into Qt, GTK+, OpenGL and SDL, which are all crossplatform opensource(or at least openly documented) platforms that have been around for some time, and will likely continue to be around for quite a while longer
meanwhile on the webdev front there is alot going on with ajax and vector based stuff which im not really an expert on, but im guessing if flash doesnt take up the slack, other alternatives will

the other OSes are gaining in popularity, and quickly
you cant ignore a growing segment of the userbase for an entire industry just because your too lazy to support other platforms
especially when you consider your application its own platform! thats just bad business
thats them making YOUR decision for you, they decided you would have to use windows, they decided your website visitors would have to use windows
i dont want anyone deciding for me what me and my customers have to run, which is THE REASON im using linux in the first place
i dont want to upgrade my computer according to someone elses corporate agenda (which is why i dont use windows) i dont want to have to develop on a specific platform according to someone elses agenda, or because of someone elses laziness (which is why i wont develop in flash anymore, and have never touched VB, and have mostly avoided.net) i dont want to run a virus scanner, an adware scanner, a spyware scanner and a software firewall either to use my computer either..
windows sucks, it is losing popularity at a growing rate and will continue you to do so, the only thing keeping windows in the lime light is the fact that so many lazy 3rd party vendors just dont want to be bothered to support more than 1 platform and the companies strategies.

well since its been 2 days and i havent heard from them, and i guess i probably wont.. i was missing the cookie
i finally solved it!
i was forgetting something else besides the hash..
i used curl
i made the php submitting code like im supposed to, submitted resume and source and the other info, but it complains about a bad hash..
i used the hash from their form and it didnt work, i tried hashing all kinds of thigns, tried hashing my resume,, tried hashing my source
tried hashing their hash..

have you gotten it to work?
has anyone else solved it yet?
what the hell am i supposed to be hashing
keeps telling me bad hash

firefox already can do this with just a couple settings
who wrote this crap
in a decade i wouldnt be surprised if windows and apple were both biting at linux's heels
on my website www.soulfire.cc
firefox has 62%
MS IE has 30.1%
also on my website linux has 18%
windows has 77%
mac only has 0.2%
