I thought I would do it before others did. Now you'll be revoking my access here.

Guess my employment prospects are well and truly shot now, too. ;)

I was actually picking on Ladyhawke and her 21:1 quote-to-post ratio on September 6. But if you guys want to mea-culpa yourselves into oblivion, go ahead :)

My neighbor upstairs has a gas-powered vacuum cleaner.

Grrr... it's exeedingly irritating when people

ROFL

I see this specific misspelling a lot:

http://bernaerts.dyndns.org/linux/76-gnome/283-gnome-shell-install-extension-command-line-script

Just above '2. Automatic Installation Script', you see this line:

"If you forget it, you will loose your terminal prompt !"

Mind you, there are worse things in the world to unleash upon the world than a terminal prompt. My father's ex-wives, his current one, volcanic activity, American politics, pollen, and crippling arthritis strike me as being worse than terminal prompts to unleash upon an unsuspecting world. But then, I'm a bit more familiar with most command-line driven interfaces than your average person, so I could probably get around in such situations. Loosing a terminal prompt on folks who have never experienced one would likely lead to an extreme lack of productivity.

That'd work for a porn site, though.

But here's the cherry on top of this nonportable sundae:  once you
do get it running, do you know how the user interface is built?  It
talks to you through YOUR LOCAL BROWSER.  That's right, kids: it's a
web application.  But no, you aren't allowed to install it once on a
server somewhere and then point to it with any browser.  You have to
install it on your desktop and let it launch a browser.

Here we are three years later and ... hey, it does seem that NetApp finally fixed this :)

Clustered OnTAP 8.x (and 9.x) can be accessed with just a web browser.

But they still don't support any form of single sign on. No LDAP, no TACACS, nothing except local accounts. And when you have storage administrators who guard the array passwords like they're the f***ing crown jewels, this gets frustrating.

Nothing. They're stuck in the 20th Century.

Does anyone actually get 8+ hours out of a laptop? I never even come close to those numbers, even on brand new machines. I can't even get half-way across country on a plane ride and have a laptop last the trip.

Get a much smaller laptop and keep the display on barely readable?


I think I can get 5 hours or so.. But that's pretty much it.
