Has anyone tried universe and multiverse repsoitories? I got non-GNOME apps there like Fluxbox and KDE. Those respositories really open up the breadth of apps.
With Linux, BSDs, OpenSolaris, and Darwin, who would care about another Unix clone? Epecially when Hurd is a microkernel which may not work as planned and have bugs left and right.
Oh yeah. I just hope that it can work with mini-PCI wireless cards for Dell notebooks (sure....) but it should be a great release. I used Ubuntu a couple weeks after it's release and it's great. I came from Red Hat/Fedora so not having weird lockups is an improvement.
They use ads paid for by businesses. That is why TV sucks. Same with radio. Local stations need to get out of the late 90's. Anyways, mney is there but we don't pay it.
Why not make a knock-off of iTunes but for films. CHarge $3 for a download, sell an expensiv, portable movie player that only works with the download service and dive into that pile of cash with corporate whores? Copyrights maintained, people can get the films cheap and on the go. Minus the whores.
What's up with all the bitterness about how companies which exists to earn money earn money? Nothing. Making money is what a business does. EA makes games that sell True on low cost (low cost labour is available, aren't they morally obliged to their shareholders to use it?) Low cost labor may mean low quality or just cheap as in India. Shareholders like it but why should a corporation be anti-American and pro-terroist by undermining American economy? market them well Drones buy the new editions just for the year change This is capitalism 101 right? Yes but includes the cool, anti-American libertarian view of it as well.
I know people like to think they deserve to keep a job once they get it for however long they are meeting the job description, but thinking that way is best left to the communists.
Why doesn't that apply to CxOs? Oh yeah they want communism for themselves. Airlines went into bankrupcy and acked the Senate to pay their debt a couple times. If that isn't communism, I need to reread Marx' book. We get mad when CxOs want communism for themselves and feudalism for us.
you sound like some jaded rock band saying "All my favorite bands sell out" because one of his bands got radio play
I thought bands wanted radio play so they could sell CDs. Weird, I thought America was captialist and not a communist, baby-killing, immoral, sequal-buying, society with too many libertarians.
I do agree that games are nothing but updates of the previous game. No true innovation. Mario was da pimp back in da day but he is old and tired now. GTA still innovates but for how long? KOTOR 2 was an upgrade to KOTOR 2 and even the story lines were similiar. Gaming companies lack balls and won't take risks with games anymore. I blame the consumer since they keep buying this stuff.
stop and think about the amount of time it takes to train someone new
Never stopped Dell. They train new people every month then lay off a bunch of temps once they hit the floor. If training is so expensive, why is Dell saving money doing that? Oh captialism.
Same here. Except used. Fuck EA. Captialism is the best system but not all corporations use it properly. Hell, if these corporations were really captialist, why aren't prices changing to market changes rather than a set price like communists do?
Should have prepared for the future. If you work in an industry with a high turnover rate, where contract labor is the norm, you are a fucking idiot if you don't have a fallback plan. This goes for everyone in that situation.
Fields change over time. When I studied psych, I could have gotten a job at a lab. Now clinical is so common that I can't get anything due to a research background. I studied computers and when I was about to finish my associate's degree, I left the school. Why? Outsourcing, offhsoring, etc. The way it seems, only cooks and gas station clerks have a steady job. Appearing as wise is foolish. There are more factors to this than you know.
Ignorance. Henry Ford is a classic captialist. He paid $5/day to his workers when he started. That was a crap load of cash in those days. He did it so employees would feel appreciated (they were), be loyal (most were), and could afford to buy Ford cars (still do). Captialism vs socialism is old and stupid. Treating people like people isn't socialism, it's basic respect.
Investors give a company money by buying parts of it so the company can make products which require workers. Without workers, nothing gets done. Without investors, no money to get things done. Both are needed. Dumping one for another is silly.
Profits are up, employees are denied overtime, and they layoff workers for more profit. Sounds sleazy to me. If a corporation really wants to save money, limit CxO's income to $300,000/year. If they can't live on that, they shouldn't run a business.

The numbers are based on the year and month of the relase. Hence 4.10 was released October 2004.
No one forced you to recommend them. You could have tried it at home first though.

You keep responding.

Only corporations get that person status, not all businesses.

Maybe he works at Microsoft.
ONly at frat parties, football games, NASCAR races, and at strip clubs. Rest of the time, we're denying our animal nature.
Interesting. If we're part god, how come I can't fly, live forever, or use KA-ME-HA-ME-HA?
Flowers for Algeron anyone?
