media nightmare: Give me an iMac
http://medianightmare.blogspot.com/2012/07/give-me-imac.html
A disturbing trends site. Monday, July 16, 2012. Give me an iMac. Working in many environments I get exposed to many methods of working. Given a working environment, usually a Windows 7 PC connected to some kind of hosting infrastructure backend and public site hosting these days seems to be a "standard". Or being given an iMac with some kind of hosting backend. Vastly better! But for productivity, for comfort and general ease of use, give me an iMac! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

media nightmare: May 2012
http://medianightmare.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
A disturbing trends site. Saturday, May 12, 2012. The role of trivia. The fabric of the internet has transformed in its serious approach to a social interaction - a set of coda to be adjusted to, that consume our time and hone our thinking into new paradigms. The triumph of trivia over academia on the internet is the interchange of reactions. To things. An interplay of personae. Full article on Weblog Theory. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Perspectives on the Open Source community vs Microsoft. Back to sfsw.net. Friday, October 04, 2002. More Microsoft Security worries. Would you open it? Aye but would not the Windows world be what it is without IE targetted viruses such as this little terror from the deep, then? Aye these viruses come in as many colours as Willy Wonka. Has flavours. Ok that was a commercial site and NOT for office surfing as its LOUD. Go on have a listen, I can wait. I am not giving them links for nothing! Virus writers a...

Perspectives on the Open Source community vs Microsoft. Back to sfsw.net. Tuesday, June 17, 2003. More Open Source FUD. SCO Unix was once an industry leader in Unix. Microsoft made Xenix and we supported one site that used this character based operating system. Do not get me wrong, it was pretty good in its day, but that day was over long long ago. If SCO does have a case against IBM, and if it ain't a vapour claim, then does the Linux world have that much to worry about? It sure will be interesting when...

Perspectives on the Open Source community vs Microsoft. Back to sfsw.net. Thursday, August 06, 2009. It seems to me that Microsoft were the original language developers for microcomputers way back when. In fact I bought the Bascom Compiler from Microsoft when it was just Bill Gates and about 10 staff - all developers of the language that would become QuickBasic and eventually VB (Visual Basic). Meantime the Unix world was reinvented by Linus Torvalds. Like most truly important events, nobody really c...

Perspectives on the Open Source community vs Microsoft. Back to sfsw.net. Wednesday, June 26, 2002. Today I prefer Windows, not for any logical reason, but just a feeling that battles are bruising experiences. Creativity does not stem from war. Creativity stems from a desire for fun and something different. Posted by Nicholas Alexander @ 9:54 am. Monday, June 24, 2002. More on Linux security. Examined the attack. Log file shows access via anonftp. wu-ftp buffer overflow bugs are probably the cause. The a...

Perspectives on the Open Source community vs Microsoft. Back to sfsw.net. Thursday, September 27, 2007. When 64bit games appear and the Vista versions start to hum, I suspect it will give the X-Box a run for its money. Posted by Nicholas Alexander @ 3:50 pm. Tuesday, September 04, 2007. Timeline of Web Browsers. Timeline of Web Browsers. Our advice is to keep your Windows and IE browsers up to date! Browser conformance may bring about a saner, safer web. It also allows programmers to be more creative.

Perspectives on the Open Source community vs Microsoft. Back to sfsw.net. Saturday, August 31, 2002. To closely model thought we have a one dimensional medium. It seems Science. Is best served by thinking in a stream; So is Art. Better serviced by thinking in a sea? The two dimensional media escape all but a few. The ability to draw or present web sites would be good examples of two dimensional media. Anything that leaves an image that is singular in nature during its time of sense. The more complex the ...

Perspectives on the Open Source community vs Microsoft. Back to sfsw.net. Tuesday, July 30, 2002. What a strange thing. While the warriors of Open Source seek to break the monopoly Microsoft has enjoyed on Operating systems for far too long, a group of talented programmers are making Open Source Linux run on the X-Box. If nothing else, it is a recommendation for Microsoft as a producer of fine hardware worth such an interesting effort. Or is this anti-Microsoft grandstanding? There is money to be made...

Perspectives on the Open Source community vs Microsoft. Back to sfsw.net. Saturday, February 15, 2003. Federal agencies are increasingly interested in Linux because of its reliability, ability to reduce information technology costs, and its portability across different computing platforms.". And then the world became networked and Windows, based around many technologies, became vulnerable to many doorways flapping in the digital winds of progress. Web site downloads (26%). It is the ActiveX level of Wind...
