I think this is moreof things that effected other inventions... that were inspiration... that influenced technology... that is, minus the hand dryer. Do you know how many people watch television? I mean... i don't... but its a lot =P. Television is a very good source for information, and straightforward to. I mean, you can't really compare it with the newspaper... as in quality news... or as a entertainment medium altogether... but, television is almost instantaneous, and is influential on technology...
Ok, i agree with you guys... hand dryers!?!... it may be percieved as a joke... i mean.. there are much greater inventions... it didn't revolutionize everything... people use paper towels...
Anyway... getting to my point... if you look at the hand dryer... you can see "Handdryer.com"... i may seem a little skeptical... but is it possible that this is a little bit of andvertising... seeing that this website is "Allied Hand Dryers"... the "Nationwide Distributor of World Hand Dryers".

Windows 95. Windows 98. Windows Millenium. Windows 2000.
See a pattern? My theory? Microsoft is trying to get away from version numbers (windows 3.1 and windows nt 4.. etc), and moving to years as a way of advertising. Really, when people back to 95, people will remember windows 95. Even though people haven't used it yet, windows millennium (really windows 98 millennium edition) will probably be reffered to as windows millennium, and be remembered when people mention the millennium. A marketing ploy. Who will remember windows 4? Windows 5? Haha, no.
Fsck you, Microsoft and your army of workers. Redmond, reply to this flaimbait if you dare =P.
(Not to mention the lawsuits for mentioning your company's name)
Sorry, my fault... your right... its spelled millennium but, its windows millennium and windows 2000. So, windows millennium is 2001, windows 2000 is 2000.
Therefore, there is a way to differentiate... just watch your spelling. =P
Don't believe me that 2001 is the millennium? Go here
Well, FYI.... In the windows nt series, next is windows 2000, so windows 2000 is basically NT 5.
As for the windows 3.1, 95, 98 series, next will be windows millenium. Although, it will be called windows 98 millenium edition. So it will be first release, second release, the millenium, of windows 98.
Originally, windows 2000, was supposed to be windows nt and the other series (95,98) integrated, but that didn't work out... i'll find an article in a min and probably reply to my own for it...
This is all great, except for the fact that windows kinda sucks... oh well.
Ok, that was a little messed up, my post, but here's an rticle at the chicago tribune about it...
The night was not completely uneventful for Commonwealth Edison Co. An explosion in northwest suburban Niles knocked out a support for a transmission tower for 130,000-volt lines, briefly knocking out power to 4,000 customers, a company spokesman said. The explosion occurred five minutes before midnight and did not appear to be Y2K-related.
There was a bomb in Niles, Il. Reports are sketchy so far (i sound like a reporter), but there was a bomb at a transmiting tower.. i'm not sure what exactly that is... but they mentioned it was over 150 ft... i mean.. they mentioned it served power
Regaurdless, the bomb was 5 minutes before midnight, and the power only temporarly flickered. Hell, i was doing something and i swore i saw the power flicker just about then, though not m any other people did. I wasn't near my APC, but my friend was near his and he said that it went on in the same timeframe.
But, if you were to blow something up, do it right. I mean, if your gonna do something that could put you in jail, put some real effort into it.
I was so angry at microsoft for fscking up my computer (i lost all my files) one time, and in anger i kicked a hole in the wall... it was a dry-wall wall but still, microsoft is dangerous.
Millennium n: a thousand years; the name given to the era mentioned in Rev. 20:1-7. Some maintain that Christ will personally appear on earth for the purpose of establishing his kingdom at the beginning of this millennium. Those holding this view are usually called "millenarians." On the other hand, it is maintained, more in accordance with the teaching of Scripture, we think, that Christ's second advent will not be premillennial, and that the right conception of the prospects and destiny of his kingdom is that which is taught, e.g., in the parables of the leaven and the mustard-seed. The triumph of the gospel, it is held, must be looked for by the wider and more efficient operation of the very forces that are now at work in extending the gospel; and that Christ will only come again at the close of this dispensation to judge the world at the "last day." The millennium will thus precede his coming.
By the way, we are on EST here on slash right? I mean, the postings are EST, but... i don't know if there are other systems.. If we have y2k problems here... i could really use my karma being reset, need to get out of the red. =P
If there are going to be soo much major problems, does it really matter what time it is going to happen? If I'm going to die at 6:00 PM local time... in retrospect will it really matter?
These Y2K "prophets"... if the world is really going to end, why are they telling people? Why not just live your life, to its fullest... oh well.
This wasn't something this person could have just said... if you read the actual document, instead of the top,you would notice that this was taken from the following sources... mainly the NY Times:
[1] Michael Pollan, "Playing God in the Garden," NEW YORK TIMES October 25, 1998, pgs. 44-51, 62-63, 82, 92-93.
[2] David Pimentel and others, "Ecology of Increasing Disease," BIOSCIENCE Vol. 48, No. 10 (October 1998), pgs. 817-826.

Finally, Forrester predicts that by 2004, Linux and proprietary Unix will have so much in common that many binaries will run on either platform.
I can also remember when people would tell me that macs and windows computers would soon be able to run programs interchangeably... And (thank god) that hasn't happened....
If anything, i'd think they'd be more different...
Someone should get a hold of the ACLU. These people want to tear apart the constitution in order to protect their precious DVD encryption. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free excercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of, the people to peaceably assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of greviances" This is, essentially, people excersising their freedom of speech, their first ammendment right.

Well, they didn't mention you have to sell your soul to buy Windows NT

Wait, this is odd?
Maybe I should get out soon...
How are people keeping up with the latest and greatest filming techniques?
Going back to blair witch.... the movie without the best techniques...
I waited a while to see that movie, and there was soo much hype, and everyone was saying how good that movie was.
I'm sorry, but it was a really bad movie.
I walked out of the movie, confused, feeling like i missed half the movie... was i the only one?

Are we that much behind? Negative versions?
Meet me in F1AM3BA73 AN0NYM0U5 Now, right below... in replies

FYI, i'm running 5.00.2128
Sorry, my fault... your right... its spelled millennium but, its windows millennium and windows 2000. So,
windows millennium is 2001,
windows 2000 is 2000.
Therefore, there is a way to differentiate... just watch your spelling. =P
Don't believe me that 2001 is the millennium?
Go here
Yeah, there would be major confusion, but i think thats why they called it windows 98 millenium edition.
Oh well... the millenium is really in 2001, as oppoesed to windows 2000... =P
Also, windows 2000 isn't that bad, i mean, its much better than nt4... but still is microsoft (its in beta now, will be released on feb 17).
I'm not sure if this is y2k related... but PCWorld's search isn't showing anything... you try
Well, FYI....
