No, I am pretty sure people run linux as their os of choice.

No, they don't.

Linux (Линух) is a pirated MS-DOS fork created by bearded Soviets.

I’m set on going to Nashville tomorrow if I wake up early enough. Skyscrapers!

Can we ban this delusional fool Red? Looks like he's just another one of those Linux believers. We don't need them anymore, I think we can all agree Anarchy was enough, yes? I don't want a repeat of that nonsense.

Any issues?

I have an issue: If a new file is added to a daily folder and is never modified again, it will be deleted eventually when the USB drive runs out of space, leaving me without a copy. I decided to dump the whole daily-folder idea and go solely for filename suffixing. Instead of overwriting a modified file, rsync will suffix the older version with a Unix timestamp.

Fun! Backing up to a server at my parents’ house actually isn’t such a kooky idea – if I ever get my hands on some old hardware.

As if this helps my case:

No manual entry for lifeoutsideofcomputer

I didn’t go to Nashville since I woke up at 17:00 . I am, however, going to Lawrenceburg tomorrow – today, I mean – after work, and I’ll be staying until Sunday morning. I actually look forward to it.

I’m back in the ’Burg! Sadly, my bicycle wouldn’t fit in my mom’s trunk, so I’m stuck with her car. (“Stuck” really is the appropriate phrase; the maneuverability comes in handy when you’re taking pictures.)

This thread is hereby my blog.

(And I want to see whipped cream all over Cloulèce’s face!)

There’s black text on a black background telling me to upgrade my Flash player, but at least the meta elements are descriptive.

I have an actual blue IE icon on my taskbar after 'upgrading' to IE7 recently

First time in ages. At least I have the new features and security that I have already been using for five or six years in other actual browsers.....oh wait how does MS call them 'new' then when they were just playing catchup? Does anyone know if IE7 has mouse gestures in some fashion or are those users still missing that essential (IMO) feature?

Just removed the offending icon

in related news, Microsoft has dropped the requirement of validating your product key before letting IE7 install - certainly made it easier than the last few times I felt like just eyeballing their product. *kicks skull and crossbone flag back in closet*

my laser printer is getting inspected by my one year old, looks like she is finding a career early in life

If IE were a person, she'd be working at McDonalds, because no one else would hire her.

If IE7 was a whore, no one would want her, because she lacks the "extra features"

Actually I'd flip that one around. No one would want her because she has the "extra features" no one wants.

LMAO whats the internet coming too. Fast food ads now. Just saw a taco bell one. Thats hilarious.

Guess it could be effective.

Senario:

It's 3:46AM, your guild has just finished a big boss and now just hanging out in vent. You check forums, and notice a shiny picture of a nice big taco, your mouth begins to water, your stomac growls. "brb guys" Off you go to Taco Bell.
