The Problem With Being A Professional Web Developer
yordan replied to 8ennett's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Of course, I think that each guy has his own opinion concerning this. Including some amateurs who would like to earn some money ! My opinion is that the main danger is not coming from the amateurs. Experienced company deciders know that experience costs in salary but gives rapid return on investment. I think that the real problem is coming from experienced developers living in emerging countries. People from India, or from Poland, or even from HaĂŻti, have skills enough for doing very professional work. And they need very low salary if they stay in their country. And web designing is typically a job where you can stay anywhere in the world, you just need a fast Ethernet connection and a secured access to the final system. So, where a UK guy needs ÂŁ3000 a month, a guy in another country could have a rather comfortable life with $1000 a month. So, he could deliver a very professional work at a very low price. We had this kind of problems when building a house was the subject some years ago (amateurs versus professional, local professionals versus overseas professionals), and now the same mechanism applies to web design. And this is a normal challenge. India and Poland and other countries have very good universities when theoretical work is involved, and seriously trained students come out these universities and are able to do very good jobs while they need a very small salary. And we have a big problem. These guys are able to do our job with their local salary. But we cannot do this job for their local salary! -
Vista Bluescreen On Nvlddmkm.sys during cold startup.
yordan replied to yordan's topic in Websites and Web Designing
The other guys on the web saw that formatting the Windows System gave no result. And if it's really a Nvidia chip problem, formatting the hard disk will give no effect.It's a cold-start problem, meaning that after a couple of minutes warming there is no problem, so Windows has also no problem booting. -
Vista Bluescreen On Nvlddmkm.sys during cold startup.
yordan replied to yordan's topic in Websites and Web Designing
My problem is still not solved.Fortunately, the problem is less severe under linux : the display is rather strange, but the system does not crash.whereas Windows during cold start tries to initialize the display, and crashes, and reboots and then freezes. I have to powerdown, and then at power up windows does not love that.When I have a look at the litterature, a lot of people have this problem. It's not clear if it's a Nvidia GeForce 9500 GS problem. some people on the net solved their problem by means of removing the graphic card, and replace it by an ATI one. Some other people changed their memory in DIMM slot1, and then had no more problem.Maybe the problem is a bad combination with the graphic adapter needing a specific memory addres and finding it faulty.And I cannot make a real diagnosis, because I don't currently have another set of memory chips or another graphic board. -
Looks like a copy-paste error. The quote has a pointer to my reply to a question of yours. I guess that you could want to quote and changed your mind, but the text was kept in a buffer and pasted with your own reply. A browser copy/paste error seems more realistic than a sophisticated database glitching behavior!

The question was "Which is the biggest hard drive", the question was not "is it useful?"Exactly as another very frequent question "Which is the fastest car" or "Which is the biggest car", nobody replies "Such a big car" or "such a fast car" is absolutely useless.By the way, IT companies continuously need more and more disk space, so for a commercial IT center it's normal to have several thousands of terabytes on disk. Of course, for a private user, some tens of gig's are enough. Simply consider that you need some tens of gigs for Windows (or some hundreds of megs if you use Linux) and then you need one byte for each key you strike on your text processing or spreadsheet file. And you need one meg for each picture you shoot with your own camera.

I guess that if you simply transfer, it will last the remaining time. If you transfer and add one year it will last one year more.At Xisto it works the same time, when you renew your domain it lasts one more year.

Depends from the subject, you get more MyCents with interesting posts. Simply have a look how fast your credit balance grows when you post on the forum. By the way, avoid double-posting, we hate that.

Credits, Hosting, And Mycents. to clear up confusion
yordan replied to FelixMercer's topic in General Discussion
Qute off-topic, but your calculation is false. You need 600 cents per month, this does not mean 600 posts. Have a look at your current MyCents value, and how fast it grows. Interesting topics are worth more than one-line posts. And, of course, spamming posts are simply removed. -
This means that people still have this problem. Most of PC users are familiar with booting on CD or on floppy drives, and they are lost when there is no CD reader on a system. That's why such topics are still open. Of course, if you don't feel them pertinent, simply ignore them, nothing forces you replying to a topic you think useless.

Read your Private Messages.RegardsYordan

Ouch! There is a discrepancy between the starter topic title and it's content.The title concerns the email client. Thunderbird is an email client, avgust seems to say that he uses the email client embeded inside Opera.The topic content talks about msn or gmail, which is are mail providers. You can use gmail with several clients, including the clientless webmail access.

Nothing special. I just wanted you to be aware that, being a Linux user is not a big protection. I told you how to install a new word spelling language, this is not harmful. But you could also have been on a malicious site, and a malicious request (like allowing cookies) would also have been accepted.So, being under Linux is not enough for completely safe surfing. Probably creating a user with no privilege inside the guest group would be slightly better.

Just right click on a bad spell word, try to "Download More Dictionaries".If you can add a dictionnary, this means that the user is able to change the browser settings.

Registering here allows you to post on the forum.You must also register at Xisto, with the same mail address you provided when registering at Xisto. This second step will make all your posts being reviewed and the correspondg MyCents created and transferred on your Xisto customer account. Have a look here for instance : http://forums.xisto.com/topic/97469-topic/?findpost= Hope this helped. Yordan

I hope that also the end-of-month payroll batches are also allowed to run over 30 minutes?

I hope that you are wrong. That's why I still leave this thread open.Now I slightly changed my mind. I use mkisofs in order to create my iso file. I keep everything somewher in a folder. And each time I want to change something I re-create the iso file. It's not exactly what I wanted, and I still hope that I will soon be able to directly insert/remove from the iso file without breaking the boot sector. And, of course, the amount of work this would save me, is not worth the price of a commercial iso editor program. That's why I continue re-creating the iso file from scratch, hoping a free editor will come soon.

And are you root when connecte'd under Linux? Do you have permissions on your FireFox settings?
-
Thanks, I know InfraRecorder. I use it for burning Iso images.What I want is modifying the iso (adding files) before burning, and this cannot be done with InfraRecorder.

Rather off-topic but I found it funny.Yesterday I was writing the sentence "please find here enclosed...", I clicked "Send" and gmail opened a pop-up window saying "hey, you are talking about enclosed and you enclosed no file, do you still want to send your mail?"I find this feature nice, gmail looking what you are writing and warning you that you forgot to add your file.

"People not using Hotmail" is exactly the same as "People not using Microsoft Windows". It's a matter of thinking, it's not really a fact.

What are you doing exactly?What is that "previous post" linking to a deleted topic on another forum? Are you posting at Xisto a reply to a topic from another forum?Do you think that the guy who posted the deleted topic is now at Xisto and will understand what you are talking about?

I found this : http://driverwhiz.com/pilotes-fr?brand=PleCFUte4woduxw_JA maybe it's worth having a look at it. And of course, don't forget to perform a system backup just before, just in case... Regards Yordan
