Apple put the E in unix and castrated a perfectly good OS.

I use the Columbus Method of typing. I find a key and land on it

Prototype? Proof of Concept? Yea right, boss' and customers don't want to hear that crap. They will not want to pay for the second draft. If you have to rewrite your code, you better do it before they see it.

With that said, SaFE (agile) helps with this, you purposely start small and get customer (could be boss, upper management, customer) buy in on the outcome as well as what the next steps will be. You can bury a lot of rewriting in those subsequent steps.

to an Espon eco-tank. It was not cheap, 3 or 4 hundred dollars, but we rarely ever by ink and when we do, it cost a little more than maple syrup.

It would be kind of funny in a deja vu way!

EcoTanks a soooo nice. Cost a lot upfront, but you get that back in the cost of ink. The ink is reasonably priced and the printer only sips it!

Go Epson!

I don't remember the year or version, though it was in the mid to late 90s. Slackware was my first distribution. I would have to ftp it in floppy sized chunks (walnit creek did the chunking) using my dial-up shell account, then zmodem it to my computer then copy it to a floppy. Rinse and repease 53 time and you had yourself a linux system ready to install! It was a grand day when I got a CD drive and SuSE sent me free CDs :)

Hmm... Maybe the bumble bee's we have in Waukegan Il are such strong Democrats they are not considered to be American. I know we have a lot of them in our backyard every summer. This summer included!

I have 9TB DL4100 (3TB drives Raid5) hooked into Dropbox (3TB).

I keed my self produced files (irreplaceable) in the dropbox folder on the DL4100 so they get offsite baxkup. The remaining important or shareable files I keed on the DL4100.

Gives me local backups as well as offsite :)

What the UVC does not kill the Ozone will. My little lamp will kill mice and men in short order with the ozone the lamp generates.

Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink! Poetry, yea right!

As an old white guy I can say I enjoyed watching movies from around the world and that spanned the generations. I had at least 1 more year of serious mining of their collection, maybe longer as they kept adding new stuff.

As for buying watching movies, I found I don't watch many movies more than one or twice. Some I do, but those are definitely the minority. FilmStruck was a great resource. I hope someone else will pick up the banner once they are gone!

Opinions are like assholes, we all have one and they all stink. Who gives a rat's ass about what this guy thinks, unless you want to make C++ better, or you think like him and have your favorite language that is not C++ you wish everything is written in.

I see I'm not the only one to think this way.

Reduced disease and overall made our communities (at least those that have them) much better places to live. Not to mention, I can poop in the comfort and warmth of my home without is smelling!
