"no servers can be used, exiting" last time I tried to set up NTP, I think the answer I found was that the message means "There are many perfectly good servers available, NTP just doesnt want to talk to them because it's too picky and favors accuracy over precision"
why would anyone want accurate time based on many differing servers accross the world? On a network, the key is to have precise time. That is, the exact same not-neccessarily-correct time on every single computer on the network. I have never managed to get this suitably set up using NTP. Anyone have success with this and willing to explain?
I tend not to consider bloat as a factor when choosing something I want to work with. If MSWord was somehow suitable for editing the types of things VIM is suitable for, I'd use it. (visa-versa, too)
not considering bloat a factor, I use vim (gvim, usually), as opposed to vi or emacs. considering the topic (editor macros) it might be worth pointing out that something is only "bloat" if you dont use it.
the W3C already ignores common sense and evolution in general. While I agree with the principles in general, their disregaurd for basic ideas of layout and page design make it clear that they dont really care what a page looks like, only how it is structured. So why care about IE at all? They're trying to create standards, and if Microsoft doesnt want to release any software which contains the latest technologies, it will be their own demise. When Compact-Discs were developed, everyone knew it would be years before most people had access to them, but the technology was developed anyway for the sake of progress and producing a superior format.
would you drive a car that had ONE horse power? The energy crisis is that we need more energy than we used to. Not nearly as much as we're actually using, of course, but just because you dont need enough towing capacity to reposition the moon in order to drive to work, doesnt in any way mean that a HORSE would come close to getting the job done.
structured data will be ignored unless you can present it in a way you want to. This is because information is, for the most part, not for the benifit of people searching for that information but rather for the people who are making that information available. In short: dominos wouldnt have an informative website listing locations and phone numbers if they couldnt put a picture of a pizza next to it. The semantic web will fail until there is something much better than CSS for laying things out presentationally. CSS3 is not it. Perhaps if there is a CSS5 or CSS8, but there is certainly no reason to expect it.
This will set precedent which will allow me to sue the makers of the movie "Se7en". Even though they spelled it differently, they still use a word I came up with to describe a number!
- Get a fucking firewall. - Don't install every spyware you see just because a web page tells you to. You'll notice a remarkable improvement in the longevity of your registry. - Also note the large number of users who, though their systems originally came with windows, use a "pirated" copy anyway because of the utterly useless system discs which come with most new computers today.

Let me be more specific: Who the fuck buys a cd more than once a week and would consider boycotting? I mean, at this point, if you're not only still buying from the RIAA (sure, I do too occassionally), but are doing so Multiple Times in a single week, I have no reason to expect your support in any anti-riaa anything anyway. [yes that's three anys]
Slashdot Mirror
why does GAIM not display AOL's adverts? That is, not even have an option to? It uses AOLs servers, doesnt it?
And then, you know, get compromised a week later since you couldnt go to windows update.
Cat shit kicks ass! Dog shit SUCKS!
"Opera"? Maybe you havent ever upgraded your Opera, but from what I see, Opera completely changes its look every single release.

I challenged me too, but I got lazy and didnt want to dig through yet-another-poorly-indexed-news-site
yeah, unless you're not a completely pathetic wussy weakling!
:/
I hurt
"if so, how??" maybe you dont understand the original illogic of being able to limit copies of the original.
but then, Sun says linux isn't open source, so...
(sorry, couldnt find the specific article, but the one I linked to does mention it)

why use vi when vim exists? just wondering.
with bombs like these, you have to hit them juuuuuuuust right.
"Be careful! it might be explosive!"
"You're right.. we'd better shoot some low-powered weaponry at it"
if only it didnt cost so much :/
is great fun, but everything involved is expensive.

That said, XHTML is fucking stupid.
