Off by one error as shown by the incorrect spelling of "it's"

AC really meant "It's Higgs' Boson, mate."

I had a subscription for Analog and Asimov on my Nook, but the terrible quality of the ebook edition (missing paragraphs, no logical separation between chapters, etc) made me drop the subscription months ago. Right now, I just have a couple of IEEE magazines coming in, good for reading when I'm stuck at the airport. I find it hard to get time to read magazine articles lately, because they fall between reading short summaries on Slashdot (preference at work) and reading a good book (preference at home).

It still works, surprisingly. A decade of using Linux and today is the first day I've seen rm used like this. (Not just once, but TWICE).

8 options!? I've been reading polls for years and have never noticed.

I took this to mean my main OS disk. The SSD is getting a little cramped though.
/dev/sda1 83G 50G 29G 64% /

Windows?
/dev/sdc2 298G 252G 47G 85% /media/dspectre/Windows

Steam?
/dev/sdb1 699G 571G 129G 82% /media/dspectre/Steam

NAS?
10.0.0.10:/mnt/user/Documents 3.7T 1.1T 2.6T 29% /home/dspectre/Documents

I initially voted 60-80, but maybe I should have voted 40-60. (The terrifying part is that the NAS is the closest thing I have to backups.)

I often use gnome-open for that same purpose.

Meh, it's an Anonymous Coward.

That's ok, it's just pictures of text.

Hah, no. The point was that for a restaurant I can't imagine them not being able to cook up a large amount of soup from base ingredients. I'm not in the restaurant industry however, so I only have a feeling.

But why would they want to sell premade soup when they can get their own discounts by buying fresh materials at the grocery store?

Whoops, I replied to the wrong comment. I'm going to have to look into FreeNX in the future.

I must be doing something wrong or GUI toolkits these days aren't designed as well for X forwarding, but anything slower than a LAN connection (and even then!) and it's painful to watch the screen update. My last attempt was last semester using Matlab off of my college's Unix servers so I wouldn't need to buy my own copy for homework and it didn't take long for me to pony up the $100.

How are watermarked PDFs hindering you?

Ouch, and I thought my reply might have been a little harsh. Way to go Slashdot.

Looking at the article, I see nothing that could have been a switch statement. The only else-ifs I see are in the Spacing section, and they need to check if a value is less than or greater than, something that can't be done with a switch.
