I had been with this company for 2-3 years when my site/location shut down. Fortunately for me my company has many clients, but not many of them had open positions. So when it was time for me to pack up and go elsewhere (in the company) I wasn't given many choices as to where I wanted to go. So after reviewing what they offered me, I understood that it really wasn't a choice at all. But more than anything it benefited my company and manager (of where they were pushing me off to).
So what it really comes down to I think, is weighing the benefits of taking such a position. I had stayed close home for several reasons (personal), and that is why I had never taken a better paying position that was considerably further. But where I ended up works out ok, is about the same distance from where I was at before, but takes a lot longer to get to. The pay is slightly better, traffic a lot worse, environment the same (great coworkers), work load is a little weird. Before, I was busy but doing other things, here I am fulfilling a role that is not mine to do. That could do me good some day as being offered employment by the client. So, all things considered this is acceptable for me.
But it comes down to how much do you value your time? Are you willing to give up your free days to be on call? Is the pay worth it? Having had the same schedule (4 x 10 and on call) I didn't mind it. But then again I was younger, single and getting great money for what I did at the time.
That reminds me of something a 5 year old told me the other day:
"Do you know what dish washer means?"
I said yeah, but do you know what it means?
"Yes, it's a man who washes dishes."
I said That is partly correct. Anyone can be a dish washer, man or woman, boy or girl. But there are also machines that wash dishes. Those are called "dish washers."
"No, a dish washer is a man who washes the dishes."
I think he ended up going with the "you remind me of Hitler" debate tactic and ended the conversation!
so one time, i got pulled over on my motorcycle because my "new motorcycle license plate holder (waiting for a license plate to be issued)" was dirty and that made me suspicious! After explaining that and giving the police officer all my paper work and walking 1/2 way back to his cruiser, he turned around and gave me my things back while saying "get out of here, i won't fuck with you." Nice to know that he could have found some BS to get me on even though he had no valid reason to stop me!
So, really, not only is Christianity not monotheistic, but it's not even a single religion:)
I don't know where you get that from. All christians believe in One God. There are different ways of i guess, you could say, 'worshiping' that One God. As opposed to the greeks and romans who had many gods (regardless of major, minor or mixed).
I was just talking about this with my gf on our way home. Although catholics believe in the 'holy trinity,' they don't worship jesus nor the holy spirit as 'God,' because there is only 'One God.' This brings me to a very good convo Socrates had with Meno, in which he asked 'what makes something holy? is it holy so then god adores it? or does god adoring it make it holy?' That's very difficult to answer (if you believe in such things). But the saints are not worshiped as 'god(s)' as there is only 'One God.'
But I think anyone who takes the time to think about how most people are (and need to be) can answer that question; people are like little pieces of metal that want to align themselves to a magnets field. Sometimes, you'll have a few that just don't quite fit - so they find a different field. Most people have this innate need to belong to something. But I wouldn't go as far as saying that you'd be lucky to find 10 or 15 people who agree... how many people speak english, and how many of those share common ideas? What about political beliefs? Look at the #2 most spoken language in the world and see how diverse they can be. This is a great example of a syllogism, all people who are Christians believe in One God, but not all who believe in One God are Christians. But for the most part, almost all catholics share the same point of view, that's why there are a lot less forks under Catholicism than there is Christianity.
lol, i didn't say i stayed with the default drivers. I completely agree! I researched to the best of my ability what I could to do fix the problems and sure enough, with the HD card there are separate driver packages that blow the oem stuff away. I don't comprehend how we're left to this. I would imagine they want to portray their company in the best possible way, but as always it's left to US to figure things out. But of course, this isn't something new to us bsd's because we're always left blowing in the wind when it comes to hardware! linux guys have it easy:P
Another major difference between catholics and christians is that catholics have a set hierarchy in that they follow 1 set of beliefs established at the top, and christians do not have a similar structure. For example, catholics have the Pope, cardinals, bishops, priests etc etc. Some christians only have reverends and no head to their organization (outside of their 'church') where they all share common ideas/beliefs/morals. Also you work your way up in the catholic structure, yet anyone can be a reverend (you can sign up online to become an ordained minister!).
Well, it started with back with the voodoo 2/3. After that card died out (I think the company went out of business?), I got an ATI tnt2 or something like that. It worked 'ok' but not as well as nvidia, but I couldn't afford nvidia!
Then I got another ATI card, a rage I think, had very buggy drivers. Next was a radeon, don't remember what kind. Still same problem, i was poor and it had buggy drivers. After that I got a sony desktop replacement (notebook p4 2ghz 512MB ram!) and it has a radeon mobility 7500, pos! After that it was all nvidia. Well, except for the HD, but that card sucks too lol. It was the highest end card I could find for an old system, which was cheaper than getting a new cpu/mobo etc. And while I regret buying it (replacing a 6600gt) it plays the game i want, not especially well, but enough to hold out for a quad core with a nice nvidia!
I know some people who don't mind the glitchy software (such as having to boot with external video cables in place or else display is not accessible) but since I'm somewhat of a 'power user' (doing more shit than i should with things not mean to do it) I like to be able to go back and forth without having to reboot. Nvidia gave me that ability without any problems.
But I will agree that many have said that since AMD took over ATI is much better. I just don't like any of my past experiences with ATI

We actually have a brilliant guy who brought us the "keep keyboard backlight on" and "set your own clock speed" by the name of No2Chem. He has been working on updating the winmo platform without 'flashing a rom' and thus losing your settings.
I don't understand anyone's arguments against winmo phones. I had a titan which rocked, went to touch pro which is good (doesn't have enough buttons!) but is slowly dying (buttons don't work very well anymore). The customizations we have on our phones are AWESOME!
It depends on what YOU like and want. But the guys at work who had iphones always tried to out do me with "i have an app that does this or that" and not only did i have something comparable, but most of the time they were #1) free #2) better (more options, less limits). I don't see why other than a larger screen anyone would want an iphone.
The tired "i just want something that works" sounds like a computer user who doesn't know more than clicking the mouse. If you spend the time to learn and configure your Pocket PC you'll have it running bad ass! I regularly wow people with what my phone does, because it's a computer that fits in my hand!
And like someone else said, HTC nor sprint/verizon etc don't support the customizing of the phone sets - but that's ok because they same process they use to flash official upgrades we use as well, just with patched software! And thennnnnnn I think google would be great if they did release their phone, but even if they didn't, i hope all carriers release phones with their OS because guess what? We'll be able to get some AWESOME custom os distro's that blow everything else out of the water. So go google!
Ok so, one of the biggest differences between "Christians" & "Roman Catholics" are the "Saints." While Christians don't have saints and catholics do, they don't worship saints - they ask for their help!
But it doesn't have the look of the desert eagle! That is one bad ass looking gun... also one of the most used in movies no doubt to it's very aggressive look! I don't own a gun, but if I did it would be a DE,.50 AE with extended barrel. Not sure what length though.
My buddy said many years ago, "why would I want to carry that heavy POS? Look, i can fit a shotgun in my pants and most people can't tell. But you try walking with that thing in your pants and you can't because it's too heavy. (Proceeds to show me how a short barrel shotgun (mossberg) fit in his pants)."
My reply was, well, if the.50 hits you, it's pretty much over Vs a 9mm or almost anything smaller. As well as being able to go through walls and what not. But at close range the shotgun will most definitely win. But, as he put it, sometimes, for the use of some people, it's not about actually using but rather the threat of using. So you might have a shotgun out, but you wouldn't want to risk it against the.50.
Then again, I would go for the gold or chrome plated cause it's all about the intimidation and hey look at my big ass hand canon factor!:P
While I love flash, because I've been working with it for so many years (go ActionScript!) I have seen many things it can do. Unfortunately, most people don't take it seriously. While the issue's only come up after a vulnerability has been used, I've been telling people about the awesome power of AS. Because flash allows for so much, I honestly don't know how you can lock it down. But on the plus side, I don't use flash/AS in a conventional manner, so most of the ways I would be able to (ab)use it is not really in reach for most people because they wouldn't even think of the possibilities that flash can do! So security through obscurity I guess would be the best way to say it.
how about this, you can only file the report if you can dig up info on the person... or submit without info if it's a "big enough crime." So dog pooping is no good without ID of the person - only locals would care about this... but breaking into a store does not require id!
One thing that might be a problem would be auto complete for user/password. Would there be a way to work around this? Is this an add-on for firefox or a software workaround with the keyboard? Yeah sounds promising though!
That is something i always make sure to bring up when conversation allows: never put your real name anywhere, unless you have to such as paying for something online or ordering a service. Try not to put your own pictures up, but if you do don't put up pictures of others without their consent ESPECIALLY when you write below them "these are my neighbors Jennifer and Ashley." Don't give out other peoples info. Use nicknames (like on IRC) to protect yourself, that way you don't get emails with subjects reading your name in it.
A lot of people agree and say "yeah that should be common sense but realistically there is no such thing as common sense or else w ewould all have it already!
This is a good question for a legal expert. I am sure that in most personal cases accessing information might not be illegal. But when you do it to a company it sure is right. And with how crazy the laws have been changing in the last decade or so i wouldn't be surprised just getting into a PC by any means could be "illegal."
Oh yeah, while i'd love to be the "death to sony" guy really they made some good products, that's why we bought them to begin with!
We had a bigger tube tv that lasted like 10 years? and a smaller tube tv that worked just fine except for the antenna connection broke internally. Was too lazy to fix it so just routed the signal through VCR (yah that was a long time ago lol).
So I'm actually posting from the Grizza, it's a Sony Vaio 'desk top replacement' PCG-GRZ530.
And it's a POS.
Sure, it's from 2004 and sports a 2.4GHz P4 with 512MB (maxed out) RAM. Upgraded HDD to 60GB (3rd drive in system up from 20GB low rpm stock drive). It's worked reliably since Jan/Feb 2003 since I bought it NIB...
#1 CPU overheats. Turns out they had shitty design of cpu/heatsink and it's a common problem for everyone. Solution: Sony says send it in for a fee. Real fix: Blow the dust out every 2 weeks or so.
#2 Hinge breaks out of NO WHERE! Having babied this bad boy for ever it's unacceptable that it breaks. Turns out its bad hinge design. I barely fixed it after having been busted for 2-3 years and it turns out BOTH hinges can't be turned by hand at all. You need some good pliers. Soaked in WD-40 and they still don't turn. The screws that go through the hinge attach to the plastic cover plate! So of course they are busted and should have the cover replaced. Bring in the Ghetto! Tiny nuts and bolts fix that problem, cover just hanging on with retainer clips!
#3 Good luck getting help from sony and or their "authorized" service centers. They all rob for non-service. Look at the complaints people have posted across countless forums. Look up my model and see it for yourself!
#4 "Like no other" is right!!!!!!!!!!!!
So i'm not surprised they are burning more customers. That's why I will NEVER buy as long as I can help it another sony product. Here is my list of experiences (all ending badly):
- walk man
- tv's
- home stereo's
- car stereos
- speakers (these were "ok")
- remote controls (various)
- note book (PC)
- DiscMan
- Home Phone
LoL A lot of this stuff i didn't buy but ended up with. All junk!
The only 2 good things I can say about this note book is that it runs FreeBSD without issues (had to do some work to get screen brightness controls working - reminds me, have to reply to another post on how to get that to work) and the screen has been pretty bitchen. It has a white spot in the top left quarter of screen the size of an pencil eraser.
Oh and while working on the hinges i "broke" the power and memory card reader ribbon cables. So from paying $35 for 1 of them from sony i got both for $18 on ebay (thank god). Then i tried to replace the heat paste on the heat sink only to find out it can't be removed, they must have used that sticky shit on it instead of regular spread wtf?
It's old, heavy and a bitch to use with modern software (windows 7 testing ATM - runs good actually) but i'll replace it only until it won't turn on again (and i can't fix it!).
that's what I did! I skipped vista like windows ME! I just recently installed 7 on my HTPC because of WMC and it works great! Just recently decided to give it a go on my old laptop (P4 2.4GHz, 512MB ram POS ATI GPU) and it actually runs good. It says my system rating is 1 based on the lowest score but my highest was 4.9 (hdd) and 2nd highest 3.1 (CPU) lol
XP, FBSD and SuSe ran great on it, so it's time to play with 7 on here.............
yup, thats why winders goes first, the linux and bsd. I perfer the BSD loader as its ez as pie! Also if you try to install windows last it'll destroy all the other records and its a pain to fix!
I don't know about you but i'm only friends on here with 1057221 other people!
I agree that whatever void appears will be filled by the inet. Look at 9/11, when there was a lot of information people went online to put together a structured time line of events. This was much more useful than mixed up news reports of contradicting reports.
So I don't know where we're going, but I do know that we'll be ok.

Just recently decided to give it a go on my old laptop (P4 2.4GHz, 512MB ram POS ATI GPU) and it actually runs good. It says my system rating is 1 based on the lowest score but my highest was 4.9 (hdd) and 2nd highest 3.1 (CPU) lol
XP, FBSD and SuSe ran great on it, so it's time to play with 7 on here.............
yup, thats why winders goes first, the linux and bsd. I perfer the BSD loader as its ez as pie! Also if you try to install windows last it'll destroy all the other records and its a pain to fix!
I don't know about you but i'm only friends on here with 1057221 other people!
I agree that whatever void appears will be filled by the inet. Look at 9/11, when there was a lot of information people went online to put together a structured time line of events. This was much more useful than mixed up news reports of contradicting reports.
So I don't know where we're going, but I do know that we'll be ok.
i just got it recently on someones recommendation and it seems to work! autopager ftw? yah
