  Re: Article rating (was: Re: the latest news)
 
(...) Funky! (...) Yup - I forgot to mention that I expected no support for it :) In fact, if someone doesn't take up the challenge before me (I couldn't justify it until June, so it's likely they will!), it would make a good way to get a bit more (...)

  Re: Recreational vehicles and more questions about the US
 
(...) Straying dangerously off-topic... this is something you can try at home kids! Assuming you have at least 4 sets of wheels, a few longer bricks and a hinge :) (...) Great term - thanks! :) (...)

  Re: Article rating (was: Re: the latest news)
 
(...) It's not particularly bad code or anything like that, it's just that it was an evolve-mode prototype -- didn't know Curses at all before digging in (still don't know it well) and wasn't sure it would even end up working. It also is still using (...) (24 years ago, 19-Apr-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)  
 
  Re: Article rating (was: Re: the latest news)
 
(...) If you mean that it would be virtually impossible for me to do some hacking of my own to get it working, or you're embarrassed to share the source, then fine! Otherwise, I'm still interested :P (...) Yup - these are cool developments, but (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Recreational vehicles and more questions about the US
 
(...) As far as I know, yes. There are some variations, though. My grandparents bought a bus (a Greyhound) and had it converted into an RV/Mobile home, and I'm pretty sure they had to have a different license for it. (...) It's just the same as a (...)

  Re: Recreational vehicles and more questions about the US
 
Fredrik, (...) As far as I know, you don't need a special license. (...) You put the car in nuetral, so the wheels turn when the RV turns, I believe. It depends on the towing apparatus as well. (...) Heh heh, I don't have an oversized vehicle, (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Recreational vehicles and more questions about the US
 
When traveling in Florida recently, I saw a lot of recreational vehicles. I realized before traveling to the US that everything "over there" is large. But those RV's were extraordinarily large. Can you drive such a vehicle with a normal license? And (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Another space render...
 
(...) I'll need to dig out my Oldfield CDs this evening. The first Tubular Bells and "To France" are some of my favorites. I still like to play "To France" every once in a while when I get the urge to tickle the ivories. Listen well, Andreas Stabno (...) (24 years ago, 13-Apr-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: "Yodd" Lehman

(...) Hmmm... d'you jot down posts and later scan them with OCR? Or something else, maybe? I thought OCR doesn't read handwriting...? -Shiri FUT .o-t.geek (24 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Question about HTTP cookies
 
Hey all, When looking in my cookie jar, I see 4 cookies for LUGNET: NEWSPOST=x, NEWSMAIL=x, NEWSGROUPFILTER=x, /=x However, when I trace an HTTP GET, the only cookies transmitted in the query are NEWSGROUPFILTER and / . e.g.: GET (URL) HTTP/1.0 (...)

  Re: CGI question
 
(...) at least at the unix epoch, most of the code won't have to be changed - the assumption here is that we won't be using 32-bit boxes anymore, so a long int will be a lot longer :) :) Dan (24 years ago, 10-Apr-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: CGI question
 
(...) Oh, but no one will *possibly* be using the same code in 29 years. We don't need to worry about that. *much laughter* The unix epoch rollover is gonna be another one.... (24 years ago, 10-Apr-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
