Just picking on you cause you were last... WHAT IS IT WITH AC's? I mean... if you''re gonna flame something, do it logged in. If you're afraid for your karma, maybe there's a good reason people will mod you down. Like not supporting your facts... or just being a troll in general. Sorry for this OT, but I had 4 AC's flame me... and only one person logged in.
And for the record IIRC they opened their code shortly after being bought by cisco, and cisco runs +/-90% of the major backbones. I would think they would've been replaced if they were unreliable.
Linksys make great routers, they run linux, you can flash them and use them for a variety of things. Likewise I also love Cisco products, very reliable, always great performance. To hear that they put out a book on home networking makes me want to go buy a copy to stick on my shelf, just to show a little support for their book, and to lend out to people who need a little help setting it up.
Tell me then, what could he have done about this? He could have issued an executive order... which people would have just loved and would have only lasted until Congress could've voted on it, or maybe he could have denounced it publicly, which he would have been painted as a partisan trying to interrupt the rulings of a court. He had no way to prevent this. I don't see how this particular problem is his fault. I voted for him too, but this isn't about him. He has done some things that I don't agree with... but, Hell, I've done things I don't agree with. If you were going to blast anyone, please blast the supporters of this. Write letters to your Congressman asking for legislation, then Bush so he can sign it. If it falls apart at Bush's desk, then you can blast him, and I'll agree. But for me, I choose to blame the SCOTUS Justices who botched this. I'm off to the DoJ Website to find contact information to complain, and let them know I'm not happy, and my Representative to try to change it. I'd appreciate the help, if you're obliged to actually DO something as an American citizen, and hence part of the Gov't. Otherwise... quit misdirecting people's agner and let us try to fix it. But I would really appreciate the help.
This wasn't Bush, it was the supreme court. And it ws the liberal/progressive justices who voted for the city. The three most conservative justices declared against it, with Sandra Day O'Connor denouncing the decision, stating this was a "sad day" for Americans. Please RTFA before blasting the Republicans
He said that he HAS used it. Thus it wasn't a Troll, it was an Opinion. Just because it isn't yours doesn't make it wrong. I personally agree with the GP.
CAN, or COULD... very important difference. How difficult would it be to find a copy of NT, and how much would it cost? I know, I know, google links, etc. will ensue, but really: is it worth the trouble, will it be secure, and is it easy to manage?
I recognize my mistake... you can run one... /s/do that/do that well/
Ahh... but here's the thing. Under it all is the command line. That is universal, my friend... or at least more universal than most things I've found working at a repair shop...
If you want great uniformity, even more so than windows, go to OSX. Same menu is for everything. No need to customize... no need for grandpa to do the tech support either. Granted, that doesn't help linux, but I'm sure that eventually one or two of the distro's will become the defacto standard, as will one or two WM... but the cool thing is that you get to choose which one you want, or if you want you can go with neither. Go straight CLI. A friend has a server up on a Pentium 75MHz... try that on ANY windows.
How about just a single standard format?
Or what about a standard desktop?
It's diversity that makes linux great. Not that it's free, but that if you don't like something you can change it. You can even publish the change so others who didn't like the difference can use your work and not reinvent the wheel. By giving people choices: KDE/Gnome, Vi/EMacs, Koffice/OOo; you are in fact ensuring that a larger base leaves Microsoft, because you have something that more people like. Not everyone likes everything about one thing, but people change things so people can change it.
Texas income tax is even easier... We don't have one. Thus, no returns to file. It's all done with sales tax (6.25% and cities are maxed at 2% additional) and property tax.;-) less paperwork for me!
width and height tags for IMG... SRC isn't the only thing allowed. THe Pic could be 1600x1200, but look only like a dot on your screen with width and height set.

Why don't ISP's filter OUTGOING mail too?
But ten you don't get a free chain gun early on...
Would it be Gnoogle or Goome? I'm partial to Gnoogle myself... it sounds cuddly.
And a store to sell them would be K-Wiki-Mart!!!

ahh... just put em on iTunes for $.99 and make an emulation handheld. Reverse engineer the old tech.
That way people will buy them.

Man, I miss that show. What was it called again?

I'm pretty sure that's NOT the best name for marketing... unless it's on IRC and bash.org

I'm surprised daily at the number of people who think they don't need a router/firewall, because windows has one "built-in" with XP...
You forgot you parenthises... here they are: ()... Maybe that'll help in you quest for karma ;-)
that's MSN not MSNBC.

Nah... they'd just stop locating them so close to high schools...

SHHH!!! I'm just in it for the mod points... not like it affects my Karma any mor one way than the other :::wink:::
