This is why the places were the data REALLY matters do use AS/400 / iSeries / Systemi to this day, despite IBM doing their goddamn best to kill it off.

Sorry, on the systems I use I type "ls" or "ll" to see a list of files. What is the "dir" you speak of?

I LOVE OS/400! It takes some getting used to when you're coming from a UNIX or windows background, but it's insanely powerful and stable in the hands of experts.

Yeah I'm a fanboy...

ZOMG I had one of those, it's still there in my parents' back closet! Did you have the port of Snakes/Nibbles on it??

GTFO newfag, this isn't /b/.

That is the question!

Still married actually, and plan on staying that way. I do, however, believe that women are all evil and men are all greedy assholes. The sooner you accept that the smoother your relationships will be.

As Heinlein pointed out (correctly IMHO), voting without responsibility for the results is sheer madness. If you're not intelligent enough to understand why you're voting, what and who you're voting for, and accept and shoulder the consequences of your decisions, you shouldn't be allowed to vote.

Women = Evil

I've been working on Audacity for years and love it. I've also been working for years to get my dad to use it for his audio business instead of buying Sound Forge or Pro Tools. It's slow progress...

Personally I'm a big fan of the old Scantron-style systems that some states still use (Minnesota in particular). It's read electronically but still gives you a physical paper record to go back to. But then again some people are too stupid to fill in ovals correctly. Come to think of it, I'm not sure why they should be allowed to vote...

Why do we remain in the virtual dark ages, when clearly we have better alternatives readily available? ...there's lots of money and power behind closed source, which leads to corruption and back-room deals. QED.
