That my friend is a sign that a dog is presidents Bush best friend. That must be a high quality leash.
However it has been been reported today (sunday times) that America does not trust the english with war plane documents there flying in 'conflict' zones and also not giving out terrorist intelligence.
Perhaps the english should bark to gain americas trust the way George loves his poodle Tony.
Ok yahoo seem to think mac os, and windows xp are the only platforms that exist for there 'webmail beta', any/. doter who thinks that covers all web browsers is deluded
For the record I stated this in/. ages ago.
Load of codswallop, a - a load of rubbish A slang expression for beer much used in the 19th century and still current today is wallop. In 1872, a certain Victorian businessman called Codd went into the manufacture of lemonade. It was sold in green glass bottles sealed with glass marble stoppers and was jokingly referred to as Codd's wallop. Its poor quality, when compared to beer, although not perhaps with other lemonades, gave rise to the derogatory implications of the phrase. As above, a load of old codswallop is an extension of the saying.
I agree. What I do is burn a cd with firefox/openoffice on it and give it away. Then let them decide what to do, hopefully on the next office upgrade or ie 'world of the world bug' they see reported.
That cd will be loaded in the coffee cup holder and start them on the path to the good side of the force.
and refuse to trade with them too - consider the enron three http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/5204030.stm - these three bankers are soley responisble for enron's demise.
Praise be no american caused enron to fail.
Domains like.org and.biz suffer from a lack of control and governance. Raising the price will mean more money coming in and a continuing misuse of the namespace..biz is a sewer,.org has many which are not organisations. I doubt the raising of the price will not stop that 'misuse' - look at the w3c - massive sums to be a member and some lame brained standards supported by our friends at microsoft.
As to.info it never took off imho - i cant remember ever visiting an.info
I mean all that money microsoft invested it would be nice if Darls thank you letter to Steve 'chair throwing' Balmer was written in word rather than vi.
Well looking at there site now, it appears you have to order the microsoft tax in the england site of theres.
It seems that microsoft will get money anyhow for doing absolutey nothing. While it might be early days. Im sure a performance like Dells 'no windows os' pc will expected from our friends the chinese.
Sharing video sucks - even Borland featured on/. this week - hosted theres off there web site.
Year ago I wanted to host a video (copyrights ok, politics content, not porn either) it was 10mb, most sites thought this was too big unless i paid to host it, What he got 'right' was that while restrictions might exist many of the competitors to youtube are lame and are unusable.
I did not want to pay to host it,or use my hosting, but i understand where the muppet is coming from on this.
I too agree that flash sucks but the premise is mpeg hosting is not that good so until something better comes along its the best option for now.
Where is leaves videobloging and intel (- its promoters) well thats not my problem.
I've a copy of professional jbuilder 4 somewhere, some smart marketing executive thought i'd cough up $2000 usd for version five, i declined, along with version 6, they gave up postal marketing me after that.
Borland was always famous for its employee cockups
in a prior crisis they employeed too people called 'smith' the bright mbas in the hr dept sacked the smith that worked on products, but kept the mail room employee called smith on. Pink slip smith was invited to work at microsoft, he was not due to be fired but was.
It made the it press then it was humourous - it flagged them for me as a screwed up it firm back then.
> Don't you get kind of tired played the same game over and over and over... for YEARS?
No i have a life - say Doom 3 is so different from Doom2 - kill monster, collect key, shoot mutant, dont get shot.
> Or, are you saying that you don't play games? Then I don't think you're exactly the target audience here.
Like literature has 8 base stories in total, do you read ?
> Or is there some missing factor that would make you start? What the hell is your point,
Most games wont run (linux), if i want to play soccer i could buy a ball.
> other than to express that you're old and grumpy, and afraid to change?
Face it, Doom2 is a cool game, I'd buy games if they were not clones of stuff. cyber tennis 2010 will be so radically different to tenis 2006 by ea sport.
Tell you a story: one christmas recently at the atomic family christmas get together kid got a new pc, and a car game with an aluring picture on (something tangible) to play rather do homework etc. - so kid loads up car game - and sans instructions discovers that the racing car game is really a car painting program.
Kid gave up,
Another story: we bought a x-box (old) as a promo giveaway and an f1 game, the car was uncontrollable, ok im a crap games player, would i buy xbox/mclaren control with 'feedback' and the game no
Now it might be how the cars handle, but its not driving (my manual car has five gears) i do every day
So while authentic handling might appeal to you, such games appeal not to child or me.
I got scared off red hat - too much buy this and that when i looked (never used it) and then Fedora happened. I still have an impression that rh is better than your distro. I used Suse really from day 1 and i think the split to a community version was handled much better by Novell.
Would i run suse and open suse yes, would i run fedora um no dont think so - question: Why should I even consider Fedora.
1. grow beard. 2. Wear caridigan 3. Punch cards = how romantic 4. Complain about stuff you have no idea about because your not bothered about doing it properly to start with
As a consumer, who would rather talk to another taxpayer/citizen of europe, rather than somebody in India, this means that i cannot buy certain things from companies that have outsourced.
Would i consider prudential, or norwich union for produts no
So if I am insuring my car, i use small insurance companies, I like to know that they can understand me, and i them and they understand the car culture of europe/us and i like to know they are based in the UK.
It is my duty as a tax payer to promote our economy not that of India.
As to added value, it is not my my job to give out how much our firm spends on telecoms to an indian while i know the figures i have privacy issues. Karan Bahree a found out delhi crook im sure would love to know our bank account details.
Not all indians are crooked, but since we have all scripted chat with an indian whom not all of us understand either because the telephone line quality is crap (british telecom), it was badly spoken (british telecom), or was totally useless in quality (british telecom) problem resolution then
What does this mean (since have to use british telecom) well data services are no longer used, new product innovations announcements down a bad phone line from India did not leave me with a great desire to find out more.

example of use: as seen in George Orwells 1984. I bet that will cause problems for americans with the 'teens'

Maybe he can do the lawyer thing in a year and then become an astronaut, and train driver after that.
Well they looked genuine but had nothing on them. The chinese ebayers yahoo email account was dead too Ebay will be getting some bad press soon.
Simple answer hacking microsoft windows is more productive, and validates the issue so it gets reported here.

Jeb Bush for President is what i say.

I'm waiting for the next release.
