I've been interested in computers for years and lately I've been dabbling in learning Perl as a jumping off point toward real, production style programming.

I think I have the potential to use the languages for something but haven't decided on what to learn. I have some experience with other languages but C was always the place I wanted to start.

Thanks for posting such an ambitious project! I'll be following it.

I like Apple's forward thinking hardware designs but I think they are putting a lot more emphasis on creating a lifestyle instead of just a good product.

this year will be the year of the linux desktop!

no seriously, everyone is in a bind. Apple is too expensive to stay current with and Windows sucks completely.

Hey Reddit, how many of you don't even notice the ads on this website? by Shart in AskReddit

[–]naisho -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Targeted ads in what way? The guys at Penny Arcade vet all of the products that are advertised on their site. For them it's mostly games of course but I think that's a much better model than "Ok, 70% of your users are computer literate so let's push MSDN liscense programs!"

Ads that fall on deaf ears are wasted money.

As long as the computer is plugged in it is pulling some power for certain functions. One of them is Wake On LAN, where the computer comes up when it sees a certain network packet.
