Bio: I've been a computer tech since 1989 - and whilst PCs get smarter users get dumber! When I started, if you told someone you were a Computer Engineer you just got blank stares - do it now & all you'll get is "I've got this problem with Windows..." My advice at this point is.... fix it & charge the ass off them - they bust it , they can pay to get it fixed! N.B. my homepage points to the place I keep my photo if it doesn't come up automatically. FYI:- My name is a reference to my RAF days - my place of work was the Flight Line...a dirty, dangerous place to be. Keeping up to shiny clean military standards here was impossible, so the rest of the base personnel referred to us as Line Swine, on account of our relatively scruffy appearance. I've just made it into one word. If you want to shorten it, be my guest - LS or LW (as some people do) is just fine.

Whiteboard

Good of u to answer those questions ppl left on my whiteboard, although it would have been better to put em on thiers! ;0) better chance of em seeing them that way heh heh -Digital Dogcow
Depends on how well you like the italian food cooked I suppose! With or without SDRAM filling? -CommanderData
Hey there Lineswine. You left a message on my white board asking if i still work with nomore. Nope we both got made redundent from Gateway when Gateway europe closed (not our fault) and i now work in otley. -Chewdini
In one of your comments to another tech story you mentioned you did some consultancy work for Royal Mail. If it was a couple of years ago please tell me it wasn't in Swindon! -CommanderData
Heh, gotta love the antics of Strong Bad and Homestar Runner. If you haven't checked out the rest of Strong Bad's e-mails, watch 'em at http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail.html ... besides "techno", I also like "little questions" and "dragon". Well, OK, I like a lot of them, but those two are probably my favorite of them all. -codeman38
Thanks for your thoughts on the subject; it means a lot to me. I have had no shortage of similar suggestions, and although I am honored and tempted by the gestures, I can't risk it right now. I am still hoping that reason will prevail with the courts. God help her if I ever change my mind <g>. Thanks again :~} -RiffRaff
Felix Qui Potuit Rarum Cognoscere Causas is the only bit of Virgil I can remember after doing Latin at GCSE nearly 15 years ago! lol ;-) -stegzy
Cooties! Just a name for any of many "bugs" you might find on the himan body. Most commonly used by pre-adolesent boys about the pre-adolesent girls that they can't seem to keep their minds of off. "Eeewwwww, Don't touch Jane, she has 'cooties'." Not sure, but probably comes from a euphamism for body lice... -obie099
Re: "Rooters" *grin* its funny here simply because of local slang - asking an aussie girl for a root is likely to get you slapped ;) -Mephiston
re : funny reporting - originally they had only put one "her" ...I think you will then see why -Windy Miller
A "fuffer" is slang (at least at my job) for a low level HDD format and a reload of the OS, Drivers, and applications. fuffer is just that much easier to say, and if a luser over hears us, it sounds like a kind of teady bear thats all snuggly -crackshot
I've been getting back into TD real hard in the last month. I've been a fan since '81. I've started to fill in the gaps in my collection. This can get a bit pricey since they have 73 albums, not counting collections, byt half.com and ebay help (though some of their rare stuff runs up to $50 and one item is currently bid up to $220). I just found the Tangerine Tree legal bootlegs available for download. TDI is actually releasing a 10 CD set from this next month as Bootleg Box 1. Listen hard! -LaserGuru
Thanks- I found MusicStack a while back. I've been filling in my TD collection for the past two months, mostly through half.com and ebay. Some of it get's crazy- the fan release (300 copies) of The Keep is bid up to $220. A knockoff version went for $43 today. I'm bidding on another, but not going that high. Someone from WA is dumping a LOT of TD onto ebay, so I might get lucky. -LaserGuru
So how are you finding civvy street? id give anything for a week in the beacons in the pouring rain covered in s*ite rather than work with people who question your every instruction.... maddness. By the By I was over at RAF digby for my last 2 years working with a load of crabs... good bunch- but its funny how everyone becomes a tornado pilot after three pints in any pub in lincoln... -secbod
2 things, you posted on my white board, that debug script will do one of two things: on a primary drive 0 HDD less than 30G it will ram the heads and crack the platters. on a primary drive 0 HDD greater than 30G it will erase the master boot volume, effectivly deleating all partitions and data flags. LL mask= low level mask (scan/probe data on HDD reading 1s and 0s raw and drop all data as an immage into a viable partition, if there are data flags, the data will arrange in a coherant manner) ((must be in a like/same partition tabele used to create the data.)) DR Mask is a similar scan/probe but it looks for coherancy patterns, IE file structures. (this is for whern you dont know what has been erased or what the original partition table was) -IcoNyx
Sorry Mick, I did think about you when the PFY told me he was gonna jump ship, but what with all this internal promotion bollocks going on lately, I had to move pretty fast to try to poach a bod from the helpdesk. & that was before the admin twats decided to try forcing a fucking accountant on us. 'll give you a shout if anything crops up in the future. -Digital Dogcow
Bah - you're an idiot. If my job was to support India, you bet your ass that I would know every code for the whole continent. It's a little thing I like to call - doing your job. Since his job is to support Americans who need Dell support, I expect him to know the bare minimum about the country he is supporting. It's all about attention to detail, and I suspect it's why the rest of the world is lagging so far behind. Everyone wants what America has, but nobody is willing to work as hard as we do to get it. So, I guess I should just agree with you that I should expect people in other countries to be incompetent and consider it as being acceptable. Sheesh.... -HotGreenMeat
Well now, I thought I made a valid argument. But, your whole response was just a bunch of stereotypical statements. I could just start badmouthing the British, but I just don't care enough. If you want to debate the merits of my argument, I am ready. If not, keep the insults coming. I get a good laugh from them..... -HotGreenMeat
nice kitty in your pic -catman1229
Checked out your piccy, as suggested. Looks like your kitty is a technical supervisor too. -K1W1
lineswine, thanks for the post on my whiteboard. However, I've found that an awful lot of people seem to feel that women will naturally be less technically-inclined than men. I've had people ask me if I picked up my skills by watching my boyfriend (invalidating my BS in CS in a single sentence), if I could type memoes for them, since I was typing anyway (programming in RPG II), etc. It's not just men; lots of women give me static about my abilities. It just wears me out some days. It makes me truly appreciate this site & members like you! -Tekkie
lineswine, thanks for the hug! I got my star here just before my surgery cuz I wanted to be affiliated with a site where I felt at home with the other folks. Figured if I didn't survive, I'd have a nice Star Member shirt to be buried in! -Tekkie
Excellent! thanx for the info on Chalkie White. I posted on Chazz's whiteboard as much as I knew on the derivation of that old usenet one-liner, but the details I knew were sketchy to say the least. It's nice to finally have the full script. BTW, I've seen Brighton Rock loads of times, & never made the connection. D'oh!. -Digital Dogcow
Lineswine: Your research skills are better even than mine! Thanks for the pointer to that "I claim my $5" thing -- Digidog forwarded it to me, and now that's another mystery put to rest... excellent tracking, indeed. -chazz
Hiya, lineswine! SEU is Source Edit Utility on the Sys/36 & AS/400. Just the editor for coding in RPG II & III. DFU is the Data File Utility for editing datafiles. I had a different interpretation, tho, considering that I had to use DFU to fix what the Dumb F'n User did to the data. -Tekkie
Your pic on your profile page went away again!!! I've never gotten to see it, but once there was a box with a green square in the corner. -Tekkie
Thank you very much for the info. I was having a hard time gettin the research on the onboard nic/sound. Your help kicked a$$. -burrkiss
Is it possible to have a virus write itself into the BIOS? Cause I have nuked&paved then kept off the internet and am STILL getting massive virus problems. I ask you since you seem quite knowledgable and wise <end bootlicking> -burrkiss
Nice picture, you handsome devil! Nice kitty cats, too. Now where is a picture of LadyLineswine? -Tekkie
Sadly, I'm in a call centre which is geared more towards volume than the completion of the job.. -Warrick
The pic is my princess Leela, a Birman/Ragdoll. No current pictures of me exist--I control the camera! -Tekkie
You like "cow Colored" cats, too. I also have 2 that are both B&W with almost identical markings. They are not related, and both were strays. My husband didn't much care for cats until he met me, then he didn't have a choice. Now they're buddies:-) -CWPowerTech
Clueless; Welll, as long as you take it right, eh? Just between friends.... Hope you didn't get offended, In that case I apologize. -Dr Je(r)kyl -Dr Jerkyl
sorry it took so long to respond... the 'crack and jump' problem is just the way the customer described it. She was talking about digital pixilation. Also the "Crimson Quality Assurance" is a reference to the "Crimson Permanent Insurance" skit in Monty Python's Meaning of Life. -leonine
Just noticed you whiteboarded me- You must have missed the South Park episode where the cops raided the North American Marlon Brando Look Alikes by mistake. -LaserGuru
I am indeed of the rare group 'techus girlie'. The Bob bit comes from a running joke I had with friends over Twin Peaks where the evil character who it turns out is the devil is called... Bob, as I used to be a sysadmin and hence the route of all evil I jokingly called myself Bob :) -fearmyroot
Thanks for the monkey-nut info. We'd simply call them unshelled peanuts round here. Not too many monkeys in NZ except for the zoos. -K1W1
The Maple Syrup alone is not enought to prove I'm Canadian. There are sugar maples in Vermont as well, and probably some of the other northern states. If you check out some of my other posts though, you'll probably gather enough info to prove it ;) -garwain
A "Hoosier" is a resident of the State of Indiana here in the US. Many a debate has raged for years over the origin of the term, without any clear resolution. I don't make 'em up, I just have to live with 'em. :~} -RiffRaff
You do know that the NAMBLA comment you left on my whiteboard looks mighty odd! :-) -LaserGuru
Neighbours etc are Aussie Soaps. Anyone who mixes up Kiwis and Ockers gets a bloody quick clarification -K1W1
LW... yeah. 'Tis I. Who's asking? -rmStarDotStar
Never read the books (LOTR) so I can't comment on how they compare, however to my mind they're pretty damn good movies; Fellowship and Two Towers were the best movies of their respective years as far as I'm concerned. -fearmyroot
Greetings, the reason is an absurdity caused by loosing my home and having to live with the inlaws. The farther-in-law has a tendency to start banging on the bathroom door if you've been in there too long and moaning about using too much hot water. At least they have a power shower which is quite nice :) Told you it was an absurd reason, purley 'family politics'. -fearmyroot
Hi Lineswine, sorry but the course I am on is ESF funded & you have to be female, unemployed & over 25. I'm pretty sure at least one of those doesn't apply. It's a big push to get women into computing (ha ha). -chameleon
Hi Lineswine, no offence take, just a friendly reminder. I think being a msall country tends to make us more sensitive to ensuring our identity is not confused with big brother Oz. -K1W1
Dude- re the male/fe,al thing I was just responding to Riff's comment, couldn't let him get away with it now could we. Female techs who tend to work in a male dominated environemnt tend to get a bit senstive about stereotypes and biting back with a male stereotype is a bit of a natural response. -K1W1
You may be right. But the sheer number of storries ive heard about onsite techs for this particular ISP are scarry... But Ill agree :) Sorry :D -MrThou
Lineswine - sorry for taking so long to reply, been far too bsuy lately. To answer your question, neither :) I just dislike labels, and run with what happens ^_^ Though I'm certainly not female. :P -Keilin
Ok, so you like maki (rolled sushi) but not cukes? Try some of these: simple tuna maki is very tasty as well as yellowtail maki. If they have any tempura rolls try them, they are alwways good and usually don't include cukes. Also, try the unagi (barbecued eel). Crab is also very good, better raw than cooked in my opinion. Red snapper and flounder are also very good. If you just want to be sure what you are eating I suggest sashimi or nigiri style sushi. -Clavenater
Me Ex-Rock Ape ook ook ;o) -Waylander
Origin of Custer's Last Stand is from an attack on the "Native Americans" (herein called "Indians"). See, the indians were put into reservations, one of which was the Black Hills of South Dakota. This was considered by the indians to be sacred ground & of little use for farming to the white men. So, both sides were relatively happy with the arrangement. Until gold was discovered. Custer was sent in to "protect" white interests in the area and then ultimately to drive out the indians. The Battle of Little Big Horn resulted, where Custer was defeated handily. (I believe it was something like a couple hundred of Custer's men versus several thousands of indians, not good odds.) -Darth
Glad you like my name. ;) -TechZilla
LOL. Suprised no one's commented on that all this time. I'm indeed hopeless as a penny with a hole in it. No one could have summed up my tech life better than Dionne did. -pennywithahole
First 'male' TSC dude to 'welcome' my wife to TSC.... I got my eye on ye pal.....keep yer distance....she hasn't taken too easily to 'AMERICAN' food....fffffrrrrruuuuuummmmmmppppphhh -ledhed
hmmm... hotspots in nyc... well i depends what you're looking for... but one recomendation for any omnivours is Dalas BBQ at the corner of 2nd ave and St. Marks place. if you're looking for anything specific just let me know. -DedSysOp
Hi, thanks for welcoming me to TSC.... I lived in Scotland until Sept 2000. Used to go to Yorshire a lot on hols when younger, a lot younger. Mostly N.Yorkshire - Richmond area. Also got rellies in Leeds area. -ScoTechLass
South coast here, live near portsmouth and working in worthing right now ^_^ -maidtina
Hubs allow you to analyse traffic on the LAN. Even if you don't otherwise need it, a traffic analyser running continuously, with an alarm on SMTP would be a good early warning of a virus infection. (Yes, the really expensive switches can do it too.) A hub is more time-determinate, in that the transmitting PC knows when the message has been received. -rurwin
I don't think I've seen the skydiving video you refered to. -LaserGuru
From Elbee Which particular Liam Bremner are you after? Were you at Leeds Met Uni? -elbee
Congrats on the star! -snowcrash
S = Bell South, the incumbent former monopoly phone company in that part of the country. CLEC = competitive local exchange carrier, one of the companies that allows us to call BS a former monopoly. For any and all telco jargon see www.nanpa.com. -concept14
hey getting back to you. well... send me a list of specs that this person wants in hw and sw and i'll be glad to help on the sr. :screen reader. : i have access to both of the big ones. can't say much more on that. if you wish send me a private email at epyd_radio@hotmail.com and i'll pass my cell # and we could talk about this extensively via phone comm. i'd be more then happy to help in anyway i can. and the sr is no prob at all. ok about the private email thing. ok no one else but me and those bastards at m$ will hafve access to it. lol those bastards! but get back to me. thanks -blindtech
Aye well haggis land is not to bad...lineswine still all 4 seasons in 24 hours...;o) -Waylander
Hey Lineswine, sorry for the delay in getting back with you. Been working my rear end off to finish a project for a company and I have just now got time to drop you this. Sure no problem on the username and password. I will make your username lineswine, unless you want something different and you can email your password to kcgibson@cableone.net. I do not have the server set up for automation and generation of passwords for the simple reason of security headaches in doing so. So when I get your email with the password you want to use I will post your username, password and IP location of the ftp server to your whiteboard.....ha ha..just kidding I will email everything back to ya. Have a great day. -UWannaPlay -UWannaPlay
Nah theres cold and wet, dark and wet, bright and wet, and all the above with gonna be wet ;o) -Waylander

Hi, just noticed a whiteboard comment that you're also a fan of my hero Spike Milligan - nice to meet another one! I've been a fan ever since the days of the Goons - was going to use Eccles as my nick but I didn't think it would travel worldwide. -Gromit
Hi, BoxOfFrogs here. Nope not PeeCee World. Just think Hi-De-Hi Campers. That is all I am saying. -BoxOfFrogs
Has all to do with my hair color and being female.LOL -TechZilla
I fold, LineSwine has got me beat - but how many days did you have to do it?. He didn't even get the "All You Can Eat" Perc. Been to some of those - PortaPotty company in Houston does a good job, but they get some of the worst "users" in the world. How many of your co-workers do you figure don't know how to lift the lid, or flush. BTW - I'm an A&P - only worked as an Avionics Tech for 6 mo. - at an Airport that was a major Scud Target 15 years later. - satanstech -satanstech
There is a movie out about the Australian Light Horse @ (Beersheba?). That was even more stupid - but they got miraculous lucky and Kicked Ass. -satanstech -satanstech
Rearrange furniture and bake a quiche? I should probably warn you I have no fashion sense either *grin* I'm not exactly sure WHAT stereotype I fit! LOL -teivrann

hey line... i've got the url @ work, so i'll have to send it to you on Monday.... -duckhead
Hi LS - re. WD-40 you're dead right. I was confusing it with another product I used to sell many years ago when I was in the motor spares business. (hangs head in shame and creeps quietly away...) -Gromit

Lineswine, That sounds good to me. I'll actually be over there tomorrow (May 8th) for about a month. I'll email you once I get settled in the hotel and everything. -DreadPirate

EveryTime I see yer Handle, I think back to the good old days. Scrunched under the Instrument Panel of a DC-3. "Swinging the Compass", with no ventilation. On the Aramco Pad at Dhahran Airport. In Mid-Summer, In Mid-Afternoon. 120+(F) in the Shade outside the aircraft. - Why does this sound better that Tech Support? -satanstech
ya I know 4ghz sounds like a lot right? well when you have a father in-law with to much money, and he's willing to buy you a complete server system..with everything. who's gunna argue. Technically..its not mine, he;'s letting me set it up for him, but hey..I get it for a year..so its kinda mine.. Its a Giga-byte board, each stick of ram is 1ghz I thouhgt it was overkill myself, but Im not arguing. -neuman1812

I still wanna new MOUSSEEE, the last time I said that in a post I got lambasted by someone, so now I just think about it. That sucks, Happy Holiday to you if you observe Memorial day!! :) -THETECHFROMHELL
Hey lineswine, just in case you don't see the tech story: "I was actually referring to my family, not my gender. Trust me, I'm the same old feminist I always was! LOL It's just my cousin is a few years younger and in college and all her roomates were so quick to give up and call Sympatico, but she was smart enough to try to fix it herself -- oh, and btw, she got it working. I'm just so PROUD of her!! " -Zentar
RE: http://www.techcomedy.com/single/new_stories.php?content_number=30395 "I'm so glad that there's another woman in ***my*** family who can help herself!"...This is exactally what she said. How does this encompass all women? And how the hell did Zentar come to agree with you when you suggest that she said something other than what she actually said?! That's the last time I ever try to defend what another persons statement. -csatguru
Hello! -DaveTunisia
That post to said mouse haters whiteboard with the (bite me ) was priceless, I got a huge laugh out of that. Thanx ;) -THETECHFROMHELL

Actually, my name doesn't really have a meaning. Actually it's arabic for lucky but that's not how I got it. My ex-husband had a leapord gekko named Zaid and his nick was mrzaid so I altered it for me and I came up with Zayda. -Zayda
cause my cousin took the pic. and btw yaul going to see alot of blindtech aroun here man, i've been a lerker for too long and it feels good to join the family and next month i'll have my star -blindtech

Not me, but my SO has just been diagnosed (type II possibly) so far he is only controlling sugar with eating healthly and taking Avandia before breakfast and lunch, not much so far and from the way his sugar swings, I am not sure he'll have to inject, diet and pills should do as long as he doesn't stresses (today two aunts of him stressed him terribly and his sugar shot up to 223 in 10 minutes, then crawled down slowly.) -Bliss
Screen readers for Windows http://www.freedomscientific.com Jaws, expensive but excellent (the only one that does 2K/NT/XP really well. http://www.gwmicro.com Window Eyes, does everything except NT, and does it quite well, though not as well as Jaws (hasn't been doing it as long). http://www.synapseadaptive.com/dolphin/hal.htm HAL. Speaks more languages than the others, but is otherwise worse, IMHO. For Linux http://www.linux-speakup.org The smallest and quickest screen reader. Note, you'll need a hardware synth for Linux, you'll have a hard time making the system talk through the sound card. http://emacspeak.sourceforge.net/ Works with Emacs rather than the shell. Will speak through the sound card if you hit it hard enough. DOS http://www.freedomscientific.com A free reader for DOS. Again, you'll want a hardware synthesizer. HTH. -BTcall
Yep, I posted a timestamp when I got it here: http://www.techcomedy.com/users/user_info.htm?nick=omegawolf It was sent back out the SAME DAY I recieved it! ;) -Zentar
Hiya mate - thanks for the nice words and phone call. I am totally surprised to be not scared of the thunder any longer. BTW - I do need to talk specs for this machine I am building so if you want to bung me an email at work that'll be great (advice much appreciated!). -CommanderData
Hiya - soz for not being in contact earlier - having mother of all crap weeks so will email you. Friend of a friend of mine died in a road accident so am dealing with all that so phone kind of off the hook right now. Hope you and Lady Lineswine are ok -CommanderData
Hope the hols went well, and thanks for the karma. I -really- need it here right now -NightRain
Thanks mate, your comment is greatly appreciated. -kerching
http://techcomedy.com/single/new_stories.php?content_number=35791 I hope I wasn't amongst the ones you thought of as narrow minded. I know that someone being a biker doesn't automatically make them any less of a civilized person, but I had assumed from Wolfprince's description that the niker in that story didn't seem like one of them. I guess that I momentarily forgot what happens to those who assume though. -HidariMak
Hi there, If you still have some g-mail accounts i wouldn't mind having one. Cheers -Armakuni

RE: G mail Shawn Waite sajwaite@qwest.net Thank you very much -sajwaite
Sorry about that. Apparently that research about people only looking at the beginning and end of words in order to decipher what word that it is appears to be true for whole sentances (or paragraphs, even!) as well. <P> In any case, please send a GMail invite to Ross Holmberg holmberw@rconnect.com Thank you once again. -LoTech
Heh! No, I wasn't thinking of neeps and tatties, though I've had'em plenty of times. Evilturnip is just my silly online gaming handle that I've had for ~10 years. I mean, really, how evil can a turnip be? And if it were evil, what could it do to harm you? Of course, now I realize that it could give you a good solid neeping! -Evilturnip

Not at all offended by your response... Strangely enough, I *do* know people who play the banjo (if that counts). Frankly, though, I've spent enough time out of the south (6 mos in Maine when i was 3 and 8 mos in England when i was 7) that I don't really consider myself a southerner. But those who are amuse me and I'm around them quite a bit... -angrymacface

Lineswine, there IS a chance. The guy was the one that is a trainer for our HD counterpart in Malasia. He's the first managerial type that has ever sat with me, and now I wish I could make them all do it. He's one of the ones who is evaluating our desk to find out why we have such great CS scores and the rest don't. And boy did he get an idea today. Heh. -Hastur

Actually, I grew up in Illinois and have just been living in Kentucky for 2 years. Sorry, no banjos, no trailer, no gunrack. Anyway, aren't gun racks more common in Texas? I've met inbred people though, does that count for anything? -LusersRThem -LusersRThem
Hahaha! The sad thing is, I know exactly who you mean. I've ran into that fossilised prostitute more times than I can remember. I wonder if she does any business...? -Spongor
You are not into Star Wars, and you don't play console games? <sniff> You really don't want to be a hero to all the cyber bears around the world, do you? <sniff> I'll go find my cyber friends and cry now. <g> -CyBear
Actually, we do have hicks/white trash/trailer trash/etc... in Illinois they just don't have gun racks. They do still have missing teeth, drink cheap beer, live in trailers with more dogs than a kennel, and chase their cousins. Does that count? The other difference between IL and KY that I have noticed is that in IL the hicks don't live in the large cities. -LusersRThem
Adorable kitties! -taieena

UHF http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098546/ About a guy running a TV station, one of his programs is about animals, run by a mad mexican. The original quote: Badges? We ain't got no badges.

Dude, thanks for pointing out my double post in Tech Rules. I posted that just before leaving work and when I got home your message was waiting for me in email. Good Catch. Thanks Again. ~MrStrype -MrStrype
The damage to the plane that crashed as AA Flight 191 was actually done at the Tulsa, Oklahoma maintenance depot during an engine swap several flights earlier, the root cause being an improper procedure that used a forklift (as you mentioned) to remove/install the engine and pylon as a single unit, instead of removing engine before pylon, and reinstalling pylon before engine. The critical causal failure was actually in the forklift hydraulics, which had a pressure leakdown that let the partially-reattached pylon dangle from a single attachment. The stress failure of the pylon at that joint went unnoticed, and was never seen until the NTSB accident forensics team found it. Once they DID find it, nine other DC-10 aircraft (of various airlines) were found to have indications of a lower amount of similar damage due to the same procedure. They didn't redesign the pylon, but they DID reroute some of the wing hydraulic lines, and add a backup to the systems that failed when the power on DC Bus 1 and AC Bus 1 failed.... Can you tell I did some research on that crash for a school report? :D -Grue
Addendum to the above - I omitted a phrase after "from a single attachment,": ", allowing the engine to pivot and damage the rear joint at the wing clevis." Sorry, didn't proof-read after I stopped to get coffee! -Grue

Wow you've got a long whiteboard -Necessitysslave
It is on our news reports. So please look before you make such a callous an arrogant remark -KalAshlar
Amazing, if I make such comments about another nation, I am deemed racist and insensitive. But you probably consider yourself enlightened. Whatever. I have little patience for your kind of person over here and even less for those from foriegn countries who critize us until the want our money, they we are expected to give it without reservation -KalAshlar

Ok. You've traveled, so you are entitled to openly critize things that you feel like critizing. I've noticed from your history, you seem to be a nice enough guy but you seem to enjoy speaking poorly of the US. That being said, I will just ignore it, since it seems to be nothing but a reflex action on your part that requires no thought. -KalAshlar
Actually, my definition of an internet troll would be anyone who deliberately bugs others online through anti-social posting, not just within newsgroups. I first noticed it in http://www.techcomedy.com/single/new_stories.php?content_number=52303, when you saw comments were being left by video gamers, and responded with "I take it gamers have a problem with reality? Does your life suck so much you have to divorce yourself from it for long periods of time? Man, I feel sorry for you." That really had no individual nor any specific fact that it was attacking. Since then, I couldn't help but notice other comments left by yourself, in other posts, where trying to piss people off seemed a higher priority than presenting an argument or fact. If my opinion of your actions offends you, remember what you wrote to me about opinions. -HidariMak
I got your message and just wanted to thank you for your concern. It's amazing to me, to think that I could have the best of friends in people I haven't even met. Thank you so much. -persephone
Nah, LS, no worries. I was actually agreeing with you ... sorry for the confusion. Nice pictures! -SouthernMyst
lineswine: LD=learning disabled. Fishie friend is of the impression that since she refuses to learn anything new, nobody else should want to either (of course, we're completely different; she's dyslexic and lazy, what I have--Asperger's--isn't a learning disability per se but she thinks it is; methinks she's been reading way too much on the negative extremes of it). -Dreamstalker
LS, regarding the last message you left on my whiteboard: Nice to see you took the "high road" and decided to attack me personally. Nice. Shows real maturity and grace. I just expressed my displeasure about your disparaging comments toward my country. You made it personal. I had already forgotten about that dumb-assed comment. Get over it. Move on. -JoeLugian

Well, LS, in my defense I did say in the first line of my post, "I can only hope this is a really good joke." Apparently, it is! Oh, and I took the tests. It appears me is 37% Chavster and 47% Posh. What up wit dat, yo? -viennasausage
Hey, Mickey, long time no see! I'm still here. -BlondeGeek
Sorry for the long time until my reply... I'm a n00b here and you have tons of stuff on your WB... I just discovered today how to reply! Anyway, thanks for the welcome, but "be careful what you wish for" (asking me to keep posting?) ;) PS. Enjoy your trip to NYC, too bad I'm not closer! -TechnoCat

Re: the disucussion we had last night about living in Canada. It would be lovely to have you folks here, but I would suggest that you visit in December or January, first! Your first Canadian winter can be a real harsh wakeup call, at least in this area! -Bagheera
Don't listen to Bagheera... winter here is NOTHING (compared to winters in the REST of Canada). Those are WINTER. It's -30 C for a whole week at least of the winter. The snow squeaks under your shoes. Here in Toronto they call out the army if they get too much snow. It is laughable. This is NOT winter here. -Mysty
Dear $Deity, man, do you EVER clear your whiteboard? When ya comin' back here? HI TOM!!! ^_^ Love ya. -TranceGemini
Yes. I should have warned about the hard right line that GOCinAtlanta generally takes. I'm more liberal/libertarian myself, so I ignore a lot of his right-wing crap. At the BBQ this weekend, Matrixmole and I were discussing 'V for Vendetta.' The movie is slanted anti-Bush (Conservative), and Matrixmole's wife, LSMPlayer remarked that the graphic novel was more anti any government. I did like one line quoted by V though, 'People should not be afraid of their government, government should be afraid of the people.' -MSimmons777
There's a filthy rumour afoot that you're back in work. Congrats mate, good luck with the new gig. -Gromit
Sorry for the delay in replying. I was gonna show at the Toronto meetup but had a lot of work thrust on me. Would have loved to be there. I understand it was a lot of fun. Oh well. There's always a next time. -momo

I was running through past posts I'd missed over the last few days and saw a comment to Caffiend regarding "Major Bloodknock's stomach trouble" and thought "Great Gu - another who knows the Goon Show?" I thought it would never happen! -Loon
mick, the messages in the msn window were not in any way directed at you. you know how sometimes I yell at the computer and I type it in the window? the fuckoff was directed at windows, and certainly not at you. why in god's name would I ever tell you to fuck off? I'm sorry that I didn't clarify. If you're still pissed off you can be, but understand that I'm getting horrible flashbacks of John. I'm just letting you know that it was directed at the computer and not at you. I thought I made that clear. I'm sorry. Hugs? Please forgive me, for I have made an error. -AdmiralLaurie
Thanks for the comments on my blog, it helps it look a little less forlorn when there's a comment or two. Also, I've considered putting my pic on the blog, I just worry that at some point I might say or do something that would get me in trouble if coworkers (or boss) knew it was me. w/o a pic I have plausible deniability ;o) -SillyGirl
hey lineswine!1 Where could I get one of those XP iso images you discussed in the revenge post? I tried twice to get sp2 slipstreamed with Sp2 and hotfixes?

OK I changed the pic link and I hope the new one works. Let me know. thabks for the wellcome and thanks for telling me the link was fragged. -imawitch
The Part Two isn't yet a link, but was to make it known that there is more than what's there. I didn't post any more parts because I put that up several years ago and you're the first indication I've gotten that anyone may have even read part one. -SillyGirl

Hey, Micky, how are you and the family ? I haven't had the opportunity to post lately. I'm looking for a second job to take care of some medical bills and it's taking up most of my teching time. I love the job I do, it's just not paying all of the bills and that's what I need. Stan's looking too. AJ is 15 and Chris is going on 10, so we think that a few hours a night, by themselves won't kill them. Other than money issues, everything seems to be going ok. I got the heart condition under control, and the diabetes under control, the hernia was fixed...btw, did I mention I've had a LOT of medical issues lately ? and I have another cancer check up on Friday. Not anticipating anything, but I'm always a bit aprehensive. My love and hugs to you all. Chrystal -persephone
I just finished watching Hamilton's F1 race (first EVER race I have ever watched) - amazing stuff! On related note, can you email me your phone number/address again? CD has lost it... -CommanderData

Hi Lineswine, Thank you for the welcome. Yes, it is an acronym. It stands for "would you like fries with that". A brief explanation. I was trying to think of a new username some years ago while my sons were doing their science degrees at uni. (One has a doctorate in Chem Eng; the other in Pure maths) My degrees are in philosophy. My kids think they are funny...:) The local McDonalds would NEVER employ me. wylfwt -wylfwt

In reference to you question on the word "Boy" yes many of us African Americans (BTW, between us fellow techs, "Black" is accepatable, too) find it offensive, generally with the context it's used in. Around here, many a codger use it for any male under 30 (keep in mind I'm 35!!), but that makes it no less disrepectful. And no, you weren't an arsehole, either. -udoshan

Heh, actually it did kind of occur to me. But at the same time when I do that it's carrying on one single conversation in 2 separate locations and that is disorganized to me so I just kind of took a stab at what would be the best spot for it.

Thanks Micky. I used "Jane" as an example name for myself since I am sure that I know other people in this community from whom I might want to conceal my identity, and someone was reminded of the SNL "Jane You Ignorant Slut" skit, so I made an email out of it. Of course, I flubbed the TSC into TCS but who really cares? Nice to meet you! -MrsCheezil
And you are? -Mer
...besides someone being capable of looking at my userpic URL? lol. -Mer
Nice arse mate! (Well, someone had to say it...) -Gromit
I figured between everything going on at my previous jobs, and the fact that they (hopefully) don't know about this one, I decided to retire my previous account on TSC. Besides, a little change now and again is nice. -skippytpodar
