Is that a question?

What exactly is vientamese? ;) I think that if I keep this up I'll be known as the typo Nazi... :rolleyes: My summer plans: Work. No vacation plans as of yet.

Two options I can think of. Cleaning or replacement.

Ehh, the abortion bit died out. Mainly because everyone was pretty much in agreement. It started because I got tired of talking to myself in there :) and so brought up a list of controversial things to talk about. Kris chose abortion, so we started talking about that. Currently we're...

I'm not worried about anyone prying. If it's a question I don't want to answer I'll just say so. Mixed feelings about both. I enjoy living alone, but I tend to get completely introverted if no one else is around. It's also very nice to be able to share the housework. And since our work...

So, uh, what do you wanna talk about? Congrats, by the way! :D

What I like about this is the fact that the "congrats to RacerX" thread is directly below mine, like a subliminal plug... :)

In regards to the move, it is worse than I expected it to be. My roommate's original plan was to move out on her own, since she's never lived alone and wanted to try it. So for months she started stocking up on household stuff. Our current place is pretty packed with boxes, all hers. On top...

Couldn't you also use the command-` to go to the etc directory in the Finder, and remove the nologin file that way?

:D I knew if I talked to myself long enough I'd get over five pages. And even better, someone else came in and started talking to me! I guess you (plural) couldn't stand my conversations with myself. :rolleyes: :D

Tell you how to do what? Your original question was "whats the % for?" and hazmat said "it shows your login status, and is based on the shell". So if you log in as root, it would be something different. The only other way that I know of to change the % part is to change your prompt. You...

Again?? Jiminy Cricket, how many of these threads do we need?!?

Just moving across town. We'll be living closer to the university, which is very beneficial for both my roommate and myself. My roommate because she goes to college (technically she goes to the community college, but it's right next to the university) and myself because I drive her to school...

That'd be Dune. Here's another quote:

Who said it's a lady, Bluefusion? It could easily be a nifty new computer system... ;)

If you want to edit the motd, you'll need to sudo, since it's owned by root. sudo pico /etc/motd then enter your password. Use control-x to exit pico.

OK, I'm gonna start getting really obscure quotes. From movies you've never heard of. From the 45 minute monologue in the middle by the no-name character who plays no part in the story. :p Or, in other words, yes. :D

Thanks, blb -- that was exactly the problem when I tried to use mv. As far as answering questions go, I couldn't care less who answers it as long as the answer is correct. And your answer was a lot more correct than mine. ;) Way back in the day when I was using System 6 and System 7.5, I...

I should have specified that the "you" I was referring to in my previous post is not a specific "you", it's a general "you". That said, I have a minor quibble -- you (this is a specific you, boi) didn't just say that PCs are faster: This is a claim that not only are browsers faster, but...
