From Download.com, (and for one day only, valid from 12 a.m. Tuesday, August 30 to 12 a.m. Wednesday, August 31 2005 (PDT)). Simply e-mail registerme(a)opera.com to obtain a registration code Normally $39USD.

OT: Moving IE Cookies
by Patrick M 30 Aug '05

30 Aug '05

Hi, I know its off topic, but perhaps someone knows. I have a site that is customized and remembers me based on my cookies. I am wanting to move them to another machine. If I can put them on Firefox all the better if not I can put it in an IE folder. I tried putting the cooking in the IE cookies folder changed the username to the username of the account and rest of the cookies then left the rest the same, but no luck. Is there somewhere you have to register the cookie? Is there a way to find out what cookies a site is using (I thought it was just the one with the host.com of the site)? user(a)host.com [2] Thanks Patrick -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

OT: IBM SCSI Drive
by Paul Taylor 29 Aug '05

29 Aug '05

Anyone have a IC35L036UWD210-0 laying around? It's a 36.7 GB IBM Ultra 160 Wide 68-pin SCSI drive. Someone I know had a drive fail and they need the data off the drive. I was interested in a) buying the drive or b) swapping the circuit board to see if I can get the data off drive and then giving your circuit board back. I'll pay you for the trouble for swapping whether it works or not. Please respond to me personally and provide a contact # if I can contact you. Regards, Paul

artsd and X-server

My x-server has speakers. My applications are running on a different box. Who can tell me what to do to artsd configurations so the sounds from the different box emerge from the speakers on my box? I have never tweaked artsd before. -- David L Nicol http://cronos.advenge.com/pc/Honest_Abe

Text Editors
by Josh Charles 26 Aug '05

26 Aug '05

I realize I could be initiating a religious war here, but I'm at my wits end. I've been working in Ruby lately, which has been going really well, but I'm having trouble finding an editor that fits me needs (or wants, I guess). Here's what I'm looking for: Syntax Highlighting Line Numbers File Browser that automatically updates with file system changes while the program is running Some Code Completion (not neccessary, but nice) It seems like these are easy requests, but it's the file browser that keeps killing off editors. I've tried both the EMACS and VI Rudy plugins and found both to be lacking. Not to mention the extremely unintuitive nature of both editors (to my mind at least). For Code completion, I'm just looking for simplicity, really. For example, when I time a ' " ' just add the closing one. Automatic tabs is another completion feature that is really handy. I've found TextMate, which only runs on Mac OS X. It fits my needs perfectly, but the mac I have access to is extremely slow, and I'm probably not going to have access to it for very long. Does anyone know of any editor that can meet my needs? It doesn't matter what platform of the three (Linux, Mac OS X, or Windows). I've tried to many and google has long ago quit spitting out good results. Thanks for your time, Josh

RE: Prices

I like how Monty thinks on this and I'd go $30-40/hour also. What you have to remember when figuring a rate to charge is that if this was your only business, you would have to pay for health insurance for yourself on top of getting a salary. This almost always comes out to double the hourly rate you would make if you were an employee. But, if you are a sole proprietor and working on multiple contracts, they each pay a portion of this to get your services. This makes sense because they only need 1/3, 1/2 or some other fraction of your time. It is then up to you to fill the rest of your time slots. I personally like a full-time contract or reg. employment, but you can make this work and occasionally make more money.

Also put in a minimum number of hours per day/week or a 'trip charge' of some kind so they don't just use you for a couple of hours at a time. And don't forget surcharges for calling you in on short notice or late hours. Double time for working after 5 pm is fairly standard.
