Have you seen the sacrifices made to afford those homes? Just because someone owns a home doesn't show the whole picture. There are plenty of Americans that own homes and are struggling to make ends meet elsewhere. Home…
I got an Atari XE when I was a kid. In addition to Byte for news, I always had to pick up a copy of Antic, an Atari specific magazine with listings (mnany simple games) in each issue to type in. Mostly in BASIC and some…
Often times it comes up in conversation how it seems the elite would rather not even have the 'inexpensive labor' living in New York City.
"The train, to its credit, since it was near the terminus, was on time." Had a good chuckle on this one, because with that particular line that statement is dead-on. "By a little after six I was standing in Port…
My best guess would be familiarity, a connection to the real world. When you go into a physical location, say visiting a hospital or business, you "sign in" and "sign out" of that place. When you participate in an…
It's not that they cannot. It's more that they will not - until it backfires. It makes more sense, in terms of money, to have fewer people. It spans many sectors, not just public, not just the FAA.
This is not new, I've seen this story pop up fairly often over decades. Once every while there's an incident, and a story such as this comes out. This is sort of the nature of an industry that doesn't shut down…
IIRC at one point it did. I just can't remember which version - 95 or 98 perhaps.

About using mental illness as a way of gaining sympathy/popularity? Unfortunately I have to agree with the parent, it does seem to be true. In my own experience: my niece never mentioned depression until she saw videos…
> It's not up to the employer. > There are states where paid sick leave is mandated, and the state law explicitly lets workers take sick leave for _ANY_ reason related to health. My comment wasn't on defining what…
I agree with you, naturally, but most of the time the employee is not setting the terms of what is considered acceptable. I don't care when I call out sick, you don't care when you do, obviously. But there's someone out…
Well, that's up the employer who will come up with that definition. I just used it as an example because it was in the article. What did he tell his employer? My job requires one to state the illness, although I…
What do most jobs give for vacation time? It took me 15 years at my current job to get four weeks. Before that, two. Assuming that two weeks a year is the norm going on other posts here, you feel it's appropriate to go…
Good for them. I'm glad they're looking out for themselves. I've been in my job almost 25 years. I listened to my parents and older workers tell me not to use sick time because "you never know when you'll need it." I've…
An X1 is the perfect Air wannabe.
I have a 220, it is a PITA, I have taken it apart to repaste it. And yes, taken it apart. Even the display had to come off. However, I have two others - X1s - and they are a piece of cake. Just remove the bottom panel…

I got a number of these notices from financial institutions. They of course said "your information may or may not have been compromised." I read this is "my information was compromised or you wouldn't be sending me this…
Interesting. I never tire of exploring the candy aisle of the local Asian supermarket. I guess I'll have to seek out a market specializing in South/Central American stuff next.
That's reserved for use after build 197.3.

I wasn't sure about GW-BASIC. I remember running it on a PC that came with MS-DOS 4.0, but that came with the PC (a Laser 286) as well. MS-DOS 5.0 was a shrink-wrapped box purchase, so I was sure it was "pure".
Along with your view on not growing up: from my observation in at least in my neck of the woods (NYC/New Jersey), much of the younger crowd prefer getting totally wasted as quickly as possible on hard liquor or bitter…
Actually, starting with MS-DOS 5, QBasic - a feature reduced version of the commercial QuickBasic - was included.
