10/24 How do you guys deal with different backspace characters in different terminal
programs? I have a screen where the terminal is set to erase = ^h, but then
sometimes I use a terminal (on some other machine, say) where backspace
sends ^?. Are there really any ways of dealing with this besides making sure
every terminal I happen to use is configured to use the erase character I use
in my screen?
\_ Use bash. It's not 100% effective though, but modern versions of
bash just accept both as backspace. |

10/14 Does a Mini-ITX Mobo fit an ATX case?
\_ Sure. It's smaller isn't it?
\_ Yeah, but I mean will the holes line up?
\_ Sorry, just being an ass. I think so, but really, you
should check the specs on your motherboard for case
compatibility.
\_ Rad, the VIA EPIA is "Micro ATX Chassis Compliant"!
\_ Rad, just found: VIA EPIA "Micro ATX Chassis Compliant"! |

10/24 Hail Bush and his citizens, the ruler of Earth, the Occupier of
Terror, Fourth Reich of this planet!!!
http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/reich.html
\_ Oklahoma City was done by Iraqis and the Government is
covering it up!!! There is a giant conspiracy to trick
Americans into believing that Iraq has nothing to do with
terrorism!!!!!

\_ Bush is Nazi, blah, blah.
Actually, the funny is, I just watched Raiders of the Lost Ark,
and one of the Nazi's in the truck scene looks a WHOLE lot like
Bush...
\_ Gee if we went by who we all looked like, then I think all
Asians look like Mao, therefore they are potential dictators
\_ You take yourself way too seriously, man. Look up 'joke' and
'facetious'.

10/24 How much extra radiation do you get when flying during a Coronal Mass
Ejaculation? Like the one occuring right now.
\_ "When that bowel shock strikes the earth's magnetic field, it's
traveling a million miles an hour or more. So it's really moving.
That's a lot of particles, a lot of hydrogen particles protons and
electrons slamming in the magnetic field. And it sort of makes it
jiggle."
\_ You'll die.
\_ Sooner?
\_ Instantly. Like a marshmellow over a fire pit.
\_ Should you worry more about possible plane crash caused by
communication to control tower or GPS satellites being disrupted,
than the higher radiation that you body receives?
\_ In a word, Yes.
\_ Like a marshmellow. ZZZZT!
\_ ORBITAL LASERS!
\_ The Mafia with the help of the Men in Black and The
Evil Scientists for a Better Tomorrow would like to
attack to control The Orbital Mind Control Lasers.
Base attack is 11 or less. Anyone want to pay to
stop it?
\_ I have a B-1 Bomber with a 100 Megaton warhead.
\_ SDI!
\_ Since the Boy Sprouts have a controlling influence
on the Mafia, and since the Rand Corporation owns
the Men in Black, NPR will stop that attack on
their soveignity over the OMCL.
\_ Not yet they don't! I've got White Collar Crime!
Enron shuts off power to NPR's broadcast towers
and TOMC are mine! |

10/24 Can someone recommend good links describing what, if any effects
Sarbanes-Oxley has on actual technical operations within financial
service companies? I've only found detailed info on changes
in financial accounting, but I recall reading that it had a pretty
serious impact on all transaction and communications logging. -John
\_ sounds like much of the changes are due to section 404(a)
\_ You shouldn't ignore the scope of the a7-92 or the 640xm. The
Barnard-Simpley could be involved as well. |

10/25 Had an interview yesterday with a startup. It was just like 1998!
Go go gadget economy go!
\_ where?
\_ hah! not a chance! *I* found it, its my 1998 startup and I
aint telling! --op
\_ Top Dog!
\_ Top Dog isn't a startup. Squirrel-on-a-stick, on the other
hand....
\_ 1. Kill Squirrels
2. ?????
3. Profit!
\_ Arf! Arf!
\_ 2. Put squirrel on stick?
\_ Hey! That was under NDA! You're so sued!
\_ Dude, seriously, you *CAN'T* put a patent on
*squirrels*.
\_ we didn't patent squirrels but we have a
patent pending business method that involves
them. I can't give you details yet but think
of: squirrels, the net, and one-click and
you're halfway there.
\_ See US patent number D369,202,
"The ornamental design for a squirrel skinner,
as shown and described."

Why am i not suprised this guy is from West
Virginia?
\_ I'm speechless. Just...speechless.
\_ You're not surprised because you're a hater?

10/25 http://bmg.com sale: (virtually) everything $6.99 per disc, free shipping. No obscure titles naturally but you'd be surprised: Sigur Ros, Charles Aznavour, etc. \_ dude, boycott any member of RIAA, man! \_ it's not like most of the people 'boycotting' anything are ever customers anyway. like pacifists boycotting general dynamics, they just don't care. \_ Wait, why is this good? Isn't the default "buy 12 get 1 free" shit better? especially with a referral. |
