Well I adopted using google docs recently.Reason is I dont want to send documents back and forth between my home and office machine. So I keep there stuff I update regularly from both places (like my gym log, various notes etc) . I know about that privacy is nil but honestly I dont really care for the stuff I keep there.
Their spreadsheet is matured quite a bit and is usable, while I wont make anything too complex in there, but for logging multi row- multi column data it is ideal (especially that if ever the need arise to make pretty graphs out of it I can always export it to offline format).
Lol it is this 'year of linux" bs again. I gave linux a try. A LOOOONG try (U/Kbunty,Debia,Mepis and a bunch of others) . And being IT professional I decided no. XP is good enough. and Linux does not give me anything more (well except more of pain the ass). I am not migrating to Vista anytime soon , but sure as hell I am not moving to Linux .
Vista maybe same thing as WindowsME. -Horribly broken piece of crap everybody complained about, but no one will move one -everyone will stay W2k3, WinXP till Vista era is over in worst case scenario. Mass migration to Linux will not happen.
To heck neg me to hell and back - Breaking news THERE ARE differences between groups of people (including racial and gender based ones) and some groups are inferior to the others in some aspects.
I know now wikipedia is not authoritative source -but there is plent fo links there if you want to dig deeper.And it looks helluva better than "everybody is equal" BS. Nope. Some people are junk,some are ok and some are brilliant.
I always thought that opera is a very slick browser. Though main reason I dont use is same as with Firefox -compatibility. Neither of them works with MSDN as good as IE does. And being windows IT professional that just too much of annoyance for me ( I know about IE render plugin for ff but it is not very stable and tends to lead to memory leaks).
Just recently(relatively) there was no such thing as 360. Sometimes I think M$ are really much wiser than most people here can appreciate. They did break into console market and now they can leverage their dominance even more.
If not for 360 it could be golden moment for opengl, but studios are more multi-platform oriented now and M$ is right there with their push for unified game platform (e.g easier porting between THEIR consoles and THEIR OS). You think dominance and monopoly? -You havent seen anything YET . With Vista DRM I bet their aim is up there - a total digital platform dominance (including music,movies and whatsoever digital).
I cant believe people are complaining about IIS "lack" of searchable and scriptable config files. All options from gui (and some more) in IIS are fulle scriptable and viewable as text. RTFM.
That this yet, another one outragesous thing Bush and his administration will get away with. Geez and Clinton was almost impeached for a blow job.
Like a true mafiaa clique Bush administration follows criminal "respect" laws and doesnt give away his fellow co-criminals.
Geez and I emmigrated from Russia because of blatant corruption - I kept saying it is not THAT bad in US yet. Well I guess it is THAT bad (or worse) now.
You understand that republicans are not the majority anymore, but the minority, right? Do you understand that both the House and the Senate both have a Democrat majority? Majority was not enough to pass it. Dems do not have 60 seats in senate. - Bill was killed by 53 to 46 votes . -It was republicans who killed it. When Dem get over 60 seats and senate and similar split in house then I think things will at least start moving.
BTW I am no fan of dems . But I think republicans are far worse- they are absolutely unfit to govern - things started going down hill with Reps getting majority in the house, senate and then their own president. I hope with those november elections reversal process started .
By having provisions about strengthening the border? There was a lot of enforcement in this bill, including this nation id thing. Reason nobody enforces current laws is because they are essentially unenforceable (you need a system to check for whether worker is legal or not and ancient cardboard SSN a kid can draw in 3 hours do not cut it) .
And all the vitriol about "get of jail free" is just ignoring the reality absoulte majority of thses people are just hard working , poor , desperate people.There is no more criminals among them than among general American population.
"We didn't let them" means status quo will stay for at least next 2 years - till citizens vote out republicans who seem to be unable to pass any single piece of legislation which is not pork for their corporate handlers.
Seriously 3 points of difference in IQ is not much. - You can raise your IQ by 5 to 15 points trough study and hard work. Although since I am first born its nice that I have to work less than my sister:)
As a user I personally wouldnt mind supporting the artists (mind you the artists, not RIAA), but service has to be on par with what p2p provides - e.g.
1)huge catalog 2)ease and convenince of use 3)DRM free format.
So far all the services fail in all three . For the exception of allofmp3.com,which RIAA cant wait to kill (killed already?) .
From the screenshots it looks like Ps3 version includes LOD/distant land mod (original oblivion lods/text are just awful and could be improved without much of performance impact).And they call it approaching PC? -With user made texture mods (Qarl for start) and in 8MsAA and 16xAF Oblivion on PC looks a lot better than on their screenshots.
I also should note that better texture mods need about 512 Mb of vid memory,which is impossible for Xbox360/PS3.
How much, and, more importantly, where there is decent honest, upfront retail shop for them? -I checked cheap whore models, but they are too expensive even for 6 figure salaried professional if purchased for 24/7 365 days.-Decent as a rental solution, but not for longterm.
With "wife" it seems so complicated - first they never publish a price list upfront, and get offended every time I am trying to figure this important part out . So far I was stuck at this step, as I cannot bring myself for long term investment without knowing the price. Finding a decent shop for "wife" products, with published prices, good RMA policy and customer service (like newegg) would be a boon, I tell ya!
got illegal virginia ids and used them to board planes in boston
Bzzttt.They got perfectly legal IDs and most of them would get a legal RealID as well (since majority of hijackers were in the country perfectly legally).
I think having an awful marketing also hurts. I heard about psychonauts many times but never really had any urge to buy/play it as it looked like some fancy name stupid arcade platformer. It turned out it was an arcade platformer, though very good and innovative at that,and in no way stupid . - But thats only after I picked it up for some $4.99 in sales bin,not before.
That game was barely marketed at all, let alone marketed well.
No,moron, as I stated above what stopped me using their sales team was their utter incompetence. NOT the southern accent, I brought southern accent in just to show that this part of their staff was not outsourced , and ironically it was not very good.
I care not for southern accent -I have no prejudice (being immigrant myself I never judge people based on the accents).What I do care is competence though,and I would take more competent Indian/Canadian/whatever guy over "in-sourced" "made in USA" moron.
No. I had positive experience with dell tech support most of the time for "gold" accounts (servers/storage). I also think their website is the best for buying stuff.
I actually think the worst part is dell sales team,half of them had southern accents, and most of them were absolutely brain dead and useless. So bad that I switched to buying server stuff from hp .
Their hardware is also not very good (I had more failures with dells than with comparable HP) . But tech support was excellent,I only called tech support for fairly complex and difficult issues - and to my surprise they were very competent.
I suggest get a volume license version of XP and/or MSDN subscr. VLK versions do not require activation and can use the same key, MSDN has all kinds of sfotware in all kinds of edition.Legally you are fine either one as long as you have real license (with VLK you can use your volume key and version even if you license came with OEM machine).
I doubt they will succeed by 2008 as well. But you gotta try. As you already mentioned no car even completed first DARPA challenge , yet in just it was done. Also 2008 is 2 years away plenty of improvements will happen by then. I think by 2010 it will be completed.
