I'm currently running Slackware64 13.0, and have been a huge Slack fan since around 3.3. Currently I run a handful of vm's under kvm. Including ubuntu, debian, centos, vista, xp, a few Win7's (two betas, rc1 and the final enterprise), opensolaris and now I'm thinking of freebsd 8.0. Some of my favorites are ubuntu and Win7. I have about 16 of them all told but only use abour 2-3 at a time. It's a fantastic way to learn several different things at once. Run two VMs, focus on OpenSolaris for a week/month then switch to FreeBSD 8.0. Then run them both at the same time when you're comfortable.

The old 80-20 rule. The other 21% of failures caused the first 79% to be correct.

Yabba dabba dooo!

Check out Cisco's website. Really. Most of the time, they have some videos geared towards marketing and business types. They even have some cute superhero thing about threats. It drives me crazy because usually I go there for technical purposes, I want to see configuration commands and tech docs. But every once in a while I'll find a good diagram or video which gets my point across to non-techie types.

Cell networks, like the old telephone networks were built for voice, not data. They had almost zero foresight in planning. I've mentioned this before. And at least someone is working hard to try and remedy the situation.

I bet he thinks the dewey decimal system "steals" content from libraries by classifying and categorizing books.

I can think of a myriad of uses ..|||..|.||. eady using it for that.

Our evil plan to control the students has become reality. Muahahhahaa!

Wow if cell phone networks were open like the internet, there wouldn't be these types of problems.

I had bet another friend to use the words "optimus prime" in a legit work email...

;oD

Well, ok. I had lost my job and I showed my buddy a link to an RV, and I said, look my new house!

So a few days later, I got an interview, and he said "don't forget to say chemical toilet in the interview."

Sooo, during the interview, I said something to the effect of, if I don't find a job soon, I'll be living out of an RV and I'll have to dump my chemical toilet in places like your parking lot.

I established camaraderie with the hiring manager from day one ...

I once bet a friend (ironically a manager from a previous job) I could use the word "chemical toilet" in an interview. I got the job and won the bet.

...for the last time... cell phone data networks != regular internet networks. Duh. Cell networks are proprietary crap networks. If you want freedom, use a wifi voip phone at hotspots and stop sending the wireless carriers your money. They made a wireless version of the landline, not a wireless version of the internet.

You know it took me all of a few seconds to read the writeup, click on the link and read the first paragraph.

  Anyone ever think the customer service person was mistaken and said .015 cents == 1.5 cents and instead meant .015 dollars?

  We're all human and make mistakes.

  The real goofballs are the ones who think AT&T (or any "wireless cellular carrier") has a data network like the internet. Square peg, round hole. You're only enabling them by sending them your dollars.
