I wonder if this has anything to do with the lady that had her account from Amazon closed after yanking all of her eBooks? Na. Prolly just a fubar.
Who are you people and where the heck have you heard these things? No, really, advertise outside of the metro areas. Amazing what those hillbilly people will spread around. Wait, that didn't come out right. You know what I mean. (hinthint - Pinterest)
who?
Look, if you wanna make it big time, make sure people in Arkansas hear your voice. If you can get people in Arkansas to recognize your brand, you are golden. (Think about it before bashing me, please.)
Actually, the voice in my head is from Icecrown Citadel's Professor Putricide...."Good news, everyone! I've fixed the poison slime pipes!" (during the Rotface encounter)
Considering GoDaddy didn't give a rats ass when they kept our website down for 2 weeks because they couldn't figure out how to manage ColdFusion (this happened right before they announced giving it up)....during this process in which they convinced us to PAY FOR 2 more years of ColdFusion hosting...in which 4 months into it they announced they were discontinuing ColdFusion.
It doesn't matter if you like or hate ColdFusion, the point was they offered it, we paid for it, and they spent 2 weeks dinking around getting it back up running after they moved the site around to non-ColdFusion servers (without our request or approval.). I didn't choose GoDaddy to begin with, I was just stuck having to support it until those decision makers were kicked to the door. Good thing the website isn't that important, in our business. (We host our own email.)
I personally grinned. Nothing annoys the shit out of me more than IT people that treat other IT people like crap and feed us full of crap (and we know it the minute they say it) and get paid so much to do it when you know damn well they don't do their job worth a crap.
Sorry. Off tangent. Maybe I am still a little bitter from the whole experience with them.
I still have a computer sitting on the shelf labeled "Do not touch, property of FBI" from when I reported a compromised computer to them. That was in 2004. It's still sitting on the same shelf, just like it was the day I unplugged it.
Go to the airport. Look at an airplane. Now look at your tablet. Now back at me. Now back at your tablet. Sadly, you can't read the specifications and dimensions listed on the blueprint for that airplane on that tiny ass screen. Look at the Internet, and now back at me. Your ISP has blocked retrieving that file from the iCloud because it's "too large/over bandwidth limit/insert other MPAA/RIAA restriction".
I'm telling you. Schools need to haul kids out to the field again. Let them get a real sense of what the rest of the working world has to deal with before they are allowed to make any decisions.
Stop that. Please, I beg of you. Stop saying PC dying. I have yet to see a tablet that can handle the Autocad/Mastercam/Catia drawings that we work with. I don't want to be stuck having to build this shit from scratch, or purchase a server just so people can use the software they have to use every day.
Before you all go off on 'virtual server/blahblah' I'm telling you, we have tried, and nothing beats having each user have a PC at their desk using the software to do their work. Just because we can make the PC last 5 years before having to replace it, doesn't mean that the PC is dying.
