The wikiquote page is even more fun -- "95 percent of all software developers believe they are in the top 5 percent, when it comes to knowledge and skills." attributed to Torvalds in some "People Behind KDE" interviews. C++ is a horrible language. It's made more horrible by the fact that a lot of substandard programmers use it, to the point where it's much much easier to generate total and utter crap with it. Torvalds, Linus (2007-09-06). Message to gmane.comp.version-control.git mailing list. Retrieved on 2007-09-22. I think Leopard is a much better system [than Windows Vista] ... but OS X in some ways is actually worse than Windows to program for. Their file system is complete and utter crap, which is scary.

I am tired of Apple offering updates (pop ups) to quicktime bundled with itunes. I don't want itunes. I'm ready to dump quicktime. So I'll miss a few videos.
But they're re-perfecting their already perfect Apple science and hence why the once a week (so it seems) 60-70 mb iTunes bundled updates. :lol: Simple fix, remove Apple Updater from your startup and it will stop notifying you of updates. That's what I do and I manually check for updates, as needed or I see fit.
You're not the only one who flakes, I'll have you know. Today was Q's day. :lol: I ended-up going solo. Great day out.

Toy Cars I was doing some cleaning and dug these out of my Rc storage boxes. Im sure there are a lot of Rc Fanatics on here. They were my old race cars from a few years back. This is pretty much how I geek out:lol:. Tamiya F201 with full carbon chassis. Alex Racing Barracuda R3/ The car was rare at the race track. This was pretty much the JDM version of an RC car.
32 Cores baby!! On May 12, 2008, HP introduced a new member of the ProLiant family: The ProLiant DL785 G5 is an 8-socket x86 server built on Quad-Core AMD® Opteron™ technology.

hey str geeks i've got a question for you I will be traveling to the Dominican Republic in August and want to bring my canon 40d and my Flip video camera. I would rather not bring my mac book. My question is this, is there a device that I can plug in my usb cable from my camera or my flip cam that will automatically download the content to the storage device with no computer involvement? I don't really have a problem with buying more cf cards for the 40d, but the flip video camera is limited to 60 minutes of video. I probably wont go above that but just in case. I have a feeling that i need some sort of gui to do this. Maybe i'll get an eeepc or something like that thanks guys
