it really strikes me, the casual observer, as odd that the jerusalem battalions and hezbollah have such similar “logos”.
on the other hand how hard can it be to make a logo with an arm held upright with an assault rifle in hand and topped off with some funky typography.
What is it with the working class that makes them consider everyone that isn’t working or able to work, fit to die? there’s a lot to be said about people who leech off of the welfare system. but dying is not a sentiment we should encourage in society.
I would never cut off my nose to spite my face. I’m not abandoning Microsoft (or Windows entirely, for that matter). I do feel, however, that Microsoft Windows has already abandoned me as a power user. If you’re content with Windows Vista, fine - but you’re doing yourself a tremendous disservice by dismissing Mac OS X because it doesn’t work the same way.

today Sun released “Darkstar“, game server middleware aimed at mmorpg’s. Sun’s got a lot of iron the furnace atm, now let’s see what slags off and not, Darkstar seems interesting from the interoperability angle, but other than that. heh, it’s Sun, its bound to be built on java without midp support.
single node only, multinode is slated for a later release so no big iron fawning just yet — sorry for the Laynia Petrovna title-bait
