Gay rights

"Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands?" - Ernest Gaines

We would like to know who really believes in gay rights on LiveJournal. There is no bribe of a miracle or anything like that. If you truly believe in gay rights, then repost this and title the post as "Gay Rights". If you don't believe in gay rights, then just ignore this. Thanks.

Ever have one of those geeky "AHA!!" moments?

I was advised that a certain function on Yardi Voyager wasn't working on one specific computer, so sysadmin John and myself settled down to try to crack the cause.

We updated Windows. No joy. We tried disabling the local firewall - already disabled. We checked the Internet Exploder security (PHAH!) settings. No joy.

So I had John sit at one computer while I sat at one we knew allowed Voyager to work, and I rattled off the Advanced settings. When I got to "Java - enabled", we had our answer. "I don't HAVE any Java options!" John cries out, and I recall being told Voyager needs Java. (And ActiveX, the ultimate virus doorway into the petri dish that is Windows. Have I told you how utterly unimpressed I am with Yardi?)

Now, everything's great in the world again. Except we still have to use Winblows.

Hop to it!!

I see that much of the U.S. hops crop has burned. Drinkers of American beer, don't fret: there is an alternative which will give you the same buzz as your favourite Yankee suds!!

It's called dihydrogen oxide. I think Havoc will concur with me on this.

You're welcome!!
