Keep your AC/DC (or Metallica, for that matter), give me KMFDM, Ministry, or Thrill Kill Kult...

But, really, what does this portion of the conversation have to do with aviation electronics? ...Oh, yeah... Iron Man...

--Back to the subject: --

I, personally, feel that, if you are in a small aircraft, maybe you shouldn't be using an ipod/ipad anyway...

Generally, small electronics are more a nuisance than an electrical risk, and should, as such, be banned from any aircraft smaller than 25 passengers, if only for annoyance purposes...

Just my $0.02...

That's a load of happy hippie crap, if'n you ask me...

Death for a software license?

Give me the BSD License or give me...

No, not death...

What's the other one?

"/ESC/ /ESC/ :wq!" was the first thing I ever learned in vi/vim back 11 years or so ago...

I tried using nano, pico, emacs, etc.

I just couldn't get over the lack of real-estate (standard terminal).

A lot of folks swear at VI/VIM...
I, for one, swear by it...

Now, all I have to do is convince the wife that ANOTHER "computer" book is necessary...

Cheers, guys!

Boo bad articles/internet postings!
Hooray, Beer!

(This would be the Red Stripe way of looking at it, at least...)

This whole story reeks of bad juju...

To get my VR glasses & navigate the 3D virtual file system on my very own Gibson super computer. I'll look for oil and stuff with it... Good times!

It seems that, in the U.S., there are one of three things that one will receive for writing FOSS software...
1. A mid-range paying job,
2. Jail time for imposing on someone else's patent,
3. A hearty *virtual* slap on the back from one's peers.

Notice that I did not mention Knighthood.

Cheers!

Anyone remember this /. headline: "Hardware: Job Ad Hints At Microsoft Move To ARM Servers" from earlier in the week?

I do not think I'm the only one who sees the irony here...

All I know is that I've got to A) Get a Segway & B) Get my Segway armour-plated & C) Get a life, as thinking Segways are cool is lame...

I eat so much brisket. Cheaper and more legal than the "good stuff"...

Now, if only we could figure out this "World Peace" thing, we'd be set.

Oh, and cancer, too...

Cheers!

Man 1: "What do you rectum about Uranus as a hole?"
Man 2: "I hear it's a s#*tty place."

Haha! You said "Uranus"! HA!

I'd look at:
www.cplusplus.com
www.thefreecountry.com
www.cprogramming.com
Those sites are good for beginner/intermediate programmers, to start with. (Really, it depends on whether or not you have a good foundation in C/C++, as to where you should look...)

Good luck!

I've been a fan of Communism/Socialism for years. How is this much different?
