vagina is listed 61 times, breast 113 times, and penis 198 times (i think i may have lost count around 160 though) thus proving more men use the internet, although mind pixel returns FALSE to "more men use the internet" thus proving i just wasted 15 minutes of my time on something stupid, thanks/.
We have 3 or 4 lacie devices in my office, free gifts from CDW I believe for screwing up an order in the past or for us being such a valuable customer or whatever, regardless they're all broken. All of them. The drives inside still work, and I've ripped them all out of the enclosure and have placed them in computers, but all the enclosures are broken.
"It takes five passwords to boot up my laptop and check my e-mail.
One of those passwords is over 50 characters long."
a few things jump out at me... first since he's using windows i don't care how long the stupid pasword is most windows vulnerabilities just skip that step entirely
Second, 3 firewalls? for a home network? are you kidding me? unless you bring your work home with you, and you work for the CIA on something 10 people are allowed to know the existance of (in which case you wouldn't be bringing it home) this just screams obsessive compulsive
Third, I feel sorry for his kids, I'm all about encouraging smart surfing at a young age... but 14 character passwords? If you told me to remember a 14 character password in my teenage years i'd probably do one of two things, A. roll eyes... "ok dad..." and turn around and write it down on a little piece of paper, or B. stop using the computer. Kinda sounds like the users where I work now actually... including the eye rolling
they provide DNS, although IMHO it is a bit lacking. I own two domains through GoDaddy and they are just simple MX records, an A record and a few CNAMES. if you are fairly simple with your DNS needs you're ok, get too complex and they might not be the best choice for you... although if you get too complex chances are it means you can afford better than $8 a year.
they do however allow you to do the DNS yourself if thats your thing, which i've considered doing but with the number of Bind vulnerabilities out there it just seems easier to let them do it (and yes I know what djbdns is... i hate it)
Don't even get me started on AIM advertising, how about one day I walk over to my computer and the Java VM is running... odd there isn't a browser open... all thats open is AIM?? last thing I need is aim using up (in addition to the already bloated software that it is) an additional 20MB of ram to run Java...
then of course there is the "mouse over to hear" advertising that comes blaring out of my speakers when I minimize a window and mouse over by accident...
my girlfriend can kick my ass in most fighting games, I don't know how or why, but she just can. We played soul caliber on my dreamcast the other day and I was just like whoa... wtf just hit me
thats what i did, sick of the crappy service offered by my university, hate pop email provided by google, so i built my own imap server... works for me
every week or so I upload all my email to my gmail account for safe keeping, best of both worlds, i know my data is safe, but I can access it anywhere it's needed
thats like saying that the government shouldn't provide roads to taxpayers because it puts private road makers at an unfair disadvantage.
or that the government shouldn't provide a police/military to taxpayers because it puts private bodyguards/mercenaries at an unfair disadvantage.
what a load of BS... where does it stop? very few slashdot articles actually have enough stupid people in them to piss me off, this one has a senator...
I'm sick of all the FUD floating around... i'm officially not reading anymore/. articles i'm just going to go see the thing for myself... hope it doesn't suck
We use zetafax at my work, and to be honest although I don't believe its very adaptable (no API's or anything to develop in) it is just about flexible enough where you don't even need it to be, we very rarely have any problems with it, I'm fairly impressed.
I've also seen the static effect when a cellphone was left near a speaker of any kind, I think what you were experiencing was caused more by the fact that your cellphone was near your radio system. I doubt it would have a smimlar effect if the cell phone was farther away.
del.icio.us does the date created and keyword part of what you mentioned, i just started using it and aside from the PITA of adding all my bookmarks from all my different computers at initial startup, it isn't bad at all...
Taking a few courses there helped me a lot... of course they were taken for the sole purpose of picking up deaf chicks, who seem to be the only hot girls on that stupid campus
but certainly, try your local community college, see if they offer an ASL 101 course
I'm not saying there are no good games, I'm hoping (probably in vain) for 100% support. The matrix online and eq2 (two games I currently play) both have no support under linux (and yes I know about transgaming)
xpdf has always functioned MUCH faster and with MUCH greater stability than any version of acrobat I've ever seen.
That said, Any large commercial vendor releasing their software on Linux is a very good thing. Maybe next some more video game vendors will jump on the bandwagon.
And of course competition is always good. This forces both xpdf and adobe to make themselves better.

its pictures like that of a dude in a skirt that makes me afraid to admit i go to that school...
step 1: sell everything
step 2: take all that money and buy 1 killer machine
step 3: Go here

everyone elses browser must be choking to death on the 80,000 lines of text like mine is...
Here's an idea, instead of fixing their crappy software M$ buys and patents all the pop-up/adware software and sues the crap out of anyone who uses it
The only good that will ever come from software patents...

YMMV, but thats my expirience
Anyone have the google cache to their site? it seems slow...
mine is slightly recessed to avoid accidental presses, didn't work so well till I duct taped it off...

well... there is an unofficial windows app that lets you mount your gmail box as a drive... but using it for mysql would be fairly crappy throughput

because granny and grandpa don't know the difference between BrandX ram ($45) and Crucial ($55)
