I heartily concur. I took a year or so off from I.T. to build my own house. I learnt heaps working with the tradies and had a great time, through the ups and downs. At the time, I seriously considered a career change - given most of the contractors I hired were earning much more than me, working outside with a different job each few weeks. Then when the downturn hit the local builders hard, I was glad I went back to I.T!

Au contraire, Mr Freak. It is so easy to generalise. I'm sure there are plenty of folks who, as you describe, lament the abandonment of "freedom" for a life of drudgery and commitment. My suggestion to them is to turn off the playstation.
For years I had dreaded the possibility of a partner falling pregnant. Then it happened - not much changed until 9 months later. The moment I looked into my newborn daughters eyes whilst sitting alone in the quiet maternity ward, I had a profound experience. I realised that this wasn't about me, a hedonistic rock musician, it was about US, a family.
Everything I've done since then has been for US, including forging an enjoyable and successful career in IT and building a house with my bare hands. I love spending as much time as possible with my three children, and hope that I influence them in a positive manner.
Linux grant me the serenity to accept the windows users I cannot change, courage to convert the windows users I can, and l33t 5k1llZ to know the difference.
That's odd - I had exactly the opposite experience. Granma's ubuntu 6.04 linux box was great. She could browse the web, do email, photos and letters (four icons on the desktop). Great that is, until the nice young bloke at the computer store convinced her to buy a vista PC. Now she's whining "why doesn't this work? It did before!" Meh my ass.
Word is a very handy way of assembling a collection of screenshots in much the same way that a front end loader is a very handy way of transporting butter...
What's with these bear arms you yanks are always going on about?? Bears have more right to their birth given arms than we do, you know. Especially cute cuddly koalas. How else can they grab those yummy eucalyptus leaves?
So fucking what? It's great entertainment. I, for one, would love the opportunity to convert a real police car into a remote control unit. Or blow up a fully laden concrete truck. What a blast!
Slashdot Mirror
don't appreciate smarmy asshats with half our IQ acting all offended
(accent mine)
Given the collective groupthink on Slashdot, that would mean he has an IQ of around 22 - 23, right?
I feel no need to disprove something that I know DOES NOT EXIST.
Or "Fucken ay"
Why did Tiger hit both the tree and the hydrant....?
.....Because he couldn't decide between the wood and the iron.....
Maybe he's from Barcelona? Just a thought.

It is the bicycle riders that I have a problem with. Now there's someone to hate.
Fuck you, cagehead.
And hope to hell you've got some sort of LOM for when your server doesn't come back up.
Ha! Stinging rebuke or what? Better hope that guy doesn't key your car!

Well, it depends on the woman of course.

Tony: Hi Mike, how ya doin'? How was Joilet?
Mike: Oh, it was bad. Thursday night they'd serve a wicked pepper steak.
Tony: Can't be as bad as the cabbage roll at the Terra-Phelavo penn.
Steve: Or that oatmeal at the Cook County slammer.
Tony: Well, they're all pretty bad.
Spiders? Hah! If you're ever by ol' Sydney town, you'd best watch out for the drop bears. Big, mean drop bears. Just waiting to... drop.

Hmmm, interesting priorities. I, for one, would rather get stoned and laid than shot and killed...

Huh? Both of my arms are fine. Surely even the most dictatorial of governments would allow people to keep their birth given arms?
I'm sorry, but you are a paranoid, misguided fool.
Woah! Infinite visibility! Where can I get me some of that?
