Cell-Phone Wars
Makarand writes "According to this article in the Houston Chronicle people
fed up with cell phone chatter have declared
war against cell phones.
They are arming themselves with detectors, jammers and other gizmos to defend privacy,
security, sanity and blissful silence. Although jamming cell phones is not
legal in the US, pocket-sized jammers are available online and even on
eBay. Cell-phone jammers typically work by disrupting
the communication between handsets and cellular towers
by flooding an area with interference
or selectively blocking signals by broadcasting on frequencies
used by these phones. The FCC
has received very few complaints about jammed cell phones
and has never taken action against anyone for that violation."
Yeah. I got # 3. I smell muffins!

Cell phone chatter is a fact of life. Get over it.
My gripe is that I wish people would realize how big of a rip off it is that phones are locked in to a single service provider. I use the free introductory phones only just because of that. They expect ME to pay for a phone that I REALLY have no choice with? heheh Thats funny. If I pay for a phone, its gonna be MY phone and I'm gonna have REAL choices.
Digital is, by definition, imperfect. Analog is the way to go.
Who cares...

I don't want to live anymore.
All that incoming breast chatter probably just made their automated call routing system fall over. Try again later.
On a Sunday? After returning from church with my family, and deciding to spend a few minutes catching up on the techie chatter of the weekend prior to VPN-ing in? Yes, I have time - it is important to know what my organization's contributors are reading about and likely to be discussing throughout the week.
Not to get too far off-topic, but Slashdot is a trasure trove of information (and quite a bit of uselss chatter - your post comes to mind, but that is to be expected). Reading comments here gives me insight into the views that may not be expressed to me regularly (open source - although the zealotry needs to be toned down somewhat, the usual struggles and concerns of gearheads, how informed the average technician is about budgetary and risk matters, etc).
Off Topic??? Troll, Flamebait maybe, but surely right on topic.

By women this forum should assume he wants to vaginally ravage a Jr High Schoolgirl. Below is a supporting quotation from his auto-biography -
"I am now 24 years old, but I am facing charges for something done while I was 23. I was involved in a relationship with a young lady who was 13 years old. Her parents knew of this relationship and even allowed me to live in their home. I was told by the young lady's mother that "she wouldn't mind having me for a son in law" and the father told his daughter to "stick with John, he is a good man, and he will treat you right!". After the relationship prospered, the parents decided that I was a distraction to their daughter and I should not be allowed to see her again. When I refused, they pressed charges against me for criminal sexual conduct 2nd degree(in South Carolina) and I am facing considerable time in jail. My question is this if the parents knew of the relationship and allowed it to continue, is it legal for them to press these charges. I have fully admitted to having sex with this young lady and it is well known that she and I were in a relationship together. We had even planned to get married. What do u think? I have searched everywhere I can look for more information and I can't find any. What do u think? Any comments on this situation would be helpful!"

With the national Democrats and third party groups raising hundreds of millions to attack our President, we have to fight back with the most effective grassroots campaign in national history!
And that's where you come in.
What better way to show your strong support for President Bush and Vice President Cheney than by getting involved at the ground level of their organization now?
What better way to show your support for the President's compassionate conservative agenda, for his commitment to winning the war on terrorism, creating new jobs, cutting taxes, reforming education, and improving health care?
That's right, I said SEVEN-BAZILLION! The majority of people just DO NOT UNDERSTAND that some of us are really irked by people on cell phones. What really gets me irritated is when people are talking about absolutely nothing. Sometimes it's funny how people forget they are out in public, and they'll start talking about one of their friends with regards to sleeping with someone. It blows my mind. In return, I should be able to blow their mind ... WITH AN AXE! CHOPPITY CHOPPITY MOTHERFUCKER! *SPLURGE!*
P.S. The UT2004 demo is actually pretty cool. Assault and Onslaught are so cool that In Soviet Russia, I, for one, welcome our Natalie Portman Petrified and Covered in Hot Grits overlords! Truly an American icon.
The most insightful comment on /. in a while gets modded as a troll. Brilliant.
'Standards' in computing only impress those who are impressed by things like 'standards'.
That doesn't mean that I don't smell muffins.
First of all I never said shoot .. 2nd, it was a joke, I'm not going to run around causing accidents...
However that being said, around these parts, SUV drivers are totally rude and inconsiderate people. They feel they own the road and run others off the road with their piss poor driving...
Damned AC posters.. How much effort does it take to create a anonymous ID... sheesh
And yes i know this is OT, for you moderators out there....
