Gas prices are usually X.XX9 which is yet another play into "it looks cheaper"

That's great if the company is looking at your computer for this info. Most companies will look at their wireless system logs, that will show them you never connected there, cross check VPN logs to see whether you were on that, and look at badge swipes as well. The problem is, even if you got that all covered, eventually your boss will *actually* go into the office when you say you are and you won't be there.

I just fire up MS Word and put a paper weight on the delete key and I'm always online, all the time... I wonder when they will figure that out. If so, I can go back to the alarm clock so the mouse moves every second or continuously if you find a '70s alarm clock.

So this is where Neon really is!

I've used Linux software RAID for years. I've rebuilt failed disks on it, I've had a SATA port die on a motherboard and moved the RAID from a CentOS 6 to Ubuntu 18 with no issue at the same time. I wouldn't recommend more than 2 users on this type of RAID setup. I see performance drop considerably. This is the cheapest option too.

I wonder if they were 1st in line for PPP when that came out. I wonder if we will have to pay for that.

Everytime I try AMD, the motherboard is a POS. Last time with the FX-8150, one of the SATA ports went bad and had to decommision it as a result. I had Athlons as well and the M/B blew up on all of them and this was with no overclocking too. AMD just doesn't cut it on the motherboard side. I've blown up an Intel branded board but that blew up from video card overclocking but that was the only one that I caused. I still have an Intel system running 24/7 I got in 2002. If AMD can develop some good motherboards, I will try them again.

I wonder if they still prosecute taxi passengers when their drivers get into accidents. Their mentality is if the driver didn't have you as his passenger, he wouldn't have gotten into the accident.

Microsoft is the McDonald's of the IT industry.

ARMv9 is better than any of this.

Wow, this has Javastation written all over it. I thought we wanted open source. Why are all these companies going back to walled gardens?

Back when I started in Linux, there was SLS and Slackware. The kernel on the install of Slackware I 1st got was .99pl14. I was slackware until 1995 when I went to Mandrake. I did a brief stink with SuSE but didn't like how different it was from Mandrake/RedHat. When Red Hat went commecial, I became an RHCE and stayed with Redhat derivatives.

It's not like we are going to count this any faster.

I had a 5 meg 386DX-40 that I ran as a DNS server for ham radio. I loaded the entire net-44 into it. It responded nicely. 150ms average. Back then there was only SLS and Slackware and I got Slackware from a buddy on floppies.
