  Re: Passed last exam - call me MCSE
 
(...) Name's a bit too long, more than fourteen characters and those dashes are a bit iffy too. Make it .off-topic.jobhunting . (...) If you need volunteers, you have my email. Maybe a once-over from a non-native speaker would help. Jasper (25 years ago, 26-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Welcome to Hell. For your reference, this site contains a lot of information you may find useful. You are now entitled to hear the URL. This also contains instructions on how to get that membership packet. (URL) (25 years ago, 26-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Science Fiction (was Re: Transit Time to Mars)
 
(...) True, that can be a problem. You can skip the first part by using an online catalog, though. Most decent-sized libraries have them these days. (25 years ago, 25-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Science Fiction (was Re: Transit Time to Mars)
 
(...) Last time I checked, most libraries don't fit in the overhead compartment, much less under the seat in front of you. :-) So taking the library with me is out, that only leaves borrowing individual books. Run the numbers here with me, if you (...) (25 years ago, 25-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: KDE/new Redhat install (was Re: Has anyone ever been)
 
(...) That's one line of reasoning. Given the tales of woe I've been hearing from sysadmins all over the world, though, anyone with half a clue tries to move to unix adminning as soon as humanly possible. You've certainly got the necessary clues, so (...) (25 years ago, 25-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: KDE/new Redhat install (was Re: Has anyone ever been)
 
(...) I want to learn - period. We have more SQL Server implementations on campus than anything else, especially Oracle. So yes, given my present circumstances, I am sure I want to go this way. I could decide to start working towards some sort of (...) (25 years ago, 24-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: KDE/new Redhat install (was Re: Has anyone ever been)
 
(...) This is the part where I scream in horror and recoil violently. Adminning MS is bad enough, but MS databases... Are you _sure_ you want to go that way? (...) They probably haven't thought of it - I know of other university admins who get those (...) (25 years ago, 24-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: 8 Wide Train Pics
 
(...) Am I to understand that MLCAD can be run on a Mac? Does it use the ldraw parts library? (cross-posting to .geek to see if the geeks can help me) -John (...) (25 years ago, 24-Dec-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Science Fiction (was Re: Transit Time to Mars)
 
(...) I used to mainly buy paperback as well, and used at that. I still buy used paperbacks, but with the various coupons and promotions I find on the web, I've been buying new hardbacks from B&N, Borders, Amazon, etc for usually 1/4 - 1/3 cover (...)

  Web Page Links
 
I'm trying to create 'lights' on my web page that turn off when the user has been to a page. The lights are inside individual layers (one for each link) inside a layer containing an image map that contains the hotspots that link to the various (...)

  Re: Science Fiction (was Re: Transit Time to Mars)
 
(...) Well, when I meant come out I meant paperback, I'm too cheap to buy hardcover. It would break me, I go through a lot of books... (...) Whoa, that's cool! (25 years ago, 24-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Science Fiction (was Re: Transit Time to Mars)
 
(...) "A Deepness in the Sky" is out in hardcover now. Will be out in paperback soon, check your favorite online book-seller ; ) I was at a local (San Diego) signing for Deepness, and he happened to mention that he wrote the entire thing (~1000pp) (...)
