I think I'm going to buy a mac mini to replace my G4 cube... not sure the best time to buy tho:-|
On display here is the species fanboius subconscious subvertus. As you can see, even while it is filled with rage at the abuse it receives from its computer goods supplier, it, like the domestically-abused meth-addicted white trash mother-of-five, finds itself immediately returning to the one who is the direct cause of its pain. Perhaps it is the fear of being alone that draws this poor creature back into the clutches of its personal tyrant. Or perhaps it is fear of being ridiculed by its common companion hipsterus arrogancium than keeps it coming back for more. Whatever the case may be, this is creature is truly one of the most pitiable we have ever studied.
Oh, and Scott? He's just some Doctor Who happens to love House.:).
Well to be honest, when it comes to fictional characters I do trust The Doctor's judgement, however upon further research I find no evidence that this "Scott" was anyDoctor Who.
Dear Sir,
You appear to have made a post that is not about OGG Vorbis support, although it should have been clear to you, based on the three previous posts and the time at which you posted, that your obligation was to make such a post, in as redundant a manner as possible.
You sneer only because you've never faced the evil of a Windows barrow white. Without the help of Tom Bomb-the-bad-DLL you'll never escape his clutches alive!
Because ripping your legally owned DVDs is illegal in some counties!
I don't know what country you're from, where county copyright law supersedes the federal/national copyright law, but here in California all our counties do is police the jails and produce corrupt politicians (who eventually end up in those jails).
What? You cannot walk, chew gum, admire modern art on the gallery walls, while drinking a snifter of brandy, and talking to your beautiful art student girlfr... oh, yeah right, Slashdot. My Bad..
Personally, I prefer to not be chewing or drinking/swallowing while talking to anybody.
When there are more sunspots, the surface of the Sun is hotter. This makes it radiate more heat than when there are less sunspots. When there are less sunspots, the surface of the sun is cooler. When the sun radiates more heat, the Earth heats up. When the sun radiates less heat, the Earth cools down.
Fool! You have it all backwards!! Anyone can clearly see that it is man's interaction that has caused an increase in sunspots post 1600's, and that it is primarily due to the success of the environmental movement in curbing man's destructive influence that we are witnessing a recent decline in sunspots! Inconvenient Truth FTW!!
Can you give me some info on "Independent Consultant"?.. they sound like a company I want to work for
Trust me, dude, you do NOT want to work for them. You have to work tons of unpaid hours, and they make you find your customers/clients, and they rarely pay you in a timely manner, and they make you do your own taxes. It's absolutely shocking, in my mind, that no one has reported them to the Better Business Bureau... I've thought about reporting them myself, but I left on decent terms, and don't want to burn any bridges.
David Ackley brags, "We have a CPU, RAM, data storage and serial ports for connectivity on every two square inches."
That sounds kinda expensive to me, even at only 72MHz/16K/128K per module.
Well it seems like Ackley misspoke (or was misquoted). The actual dimensions from one of their Official Retailers is 1.87" x 1.87" x 0.25". More like "2 inches square" (or 4 square inches) as opposed to "2 square inches". But at $55/each they are definitely not going to out-price/perform any Intel/AMD desktop chips on this first production run. But that's not what they're aiming for, judging from the inspired rhetoric on their main site, and their official retailer's site. They're more about a paradigm shift in computer building.
Pretty exciting stuff if they keep up the momentum. IMHO, the computer industry is definitely in need of a paradigm shift like this - to allow for easier, and more refined, modular scalability to provide the best support for upcoming industries like robotics and spaceflight
...I'm having trouble thinking of *any* gamer I know IRL who is obese or depressed; yes, most are probably at the higher end of "average", but they're not obese...
Obese according to the BMI != Obese in normal English
The BMI is a joke that is used by doctors/health industry/reporters to get people to exercise more/eat less/live healthier/feel worse about themselves. Arnold Schwarzenegger, when he won Mr. Olympia in 1970 was "Obese" according to the BMI. I'm willing to bet a lot of people you would describe as plump, a little heavy, or heavy, would actually come in as Obese according the Almighty BMI.
Don't forget that this will be able to be counter-balanced by harnessing their (effectively) inexhaustible supply of hot air. All we have to do is convince them they're on the campaign trail, or ask them about their previous campaign promises, to produce maximum expulsion rates.
Bill's can get cocaine on them without ever having been directly in contact with cocaine.
Bill's what can get cocaine on who?!? And Bill's thing can do this without "them" coming into contact with cocaine? That's freaking amazing! So does the cocaine get on "them" by some magical form transportation that does not involve physical contact with particles of cocaine?! This would be truly amazing!!
Besides that general satisfaction of being lauded for expressing your hate, what good does it do to dismiss out-of-hand all of someone's ideas/thoughts just because aspects of their dogma differs from yours? Do you not think that ideas should stand on their own merit?
I know it's easier to just simplify/judge other people according to the emotions they make you feel, but don't you think it might be more constructive to evaluate and discuss their ideas without that kind of emotional baggage?

(Yes, there's IS an 's' in it)
But do you know where there's is NOT supposed to be an 's'?

$OTHER_PARTY is ruining the country.
Mod parent up! Those fuckers have been in control of both houses and the presidency for over 150 years!

I dunno, I'm kinda feeling the "-1 Do You Like Fish Sticks?", personally...
Damn! I should have bought SCO stock yesterday.
That may very well be the first time someone has EVER said those words and possibly meant it...

TriggerHappy TV re-enactments aside, I'm not sure you're going to want to hold this to your ear.
You're citing a "trend" over the last 9 months ?!? I bet most places north of the equator notice a warming trend between January and September.
Methinks you need to take his username into account...

If it ain't broken, don't fix it.
It seems to me that this is a case where "breaking" it (Azeroth) is actually going to improve it, by offering new places to go, things to do, etc.

I'm under average!
"Under average"?! That's unpossible!!

If this actually happened there would almost certainly be a massive increase in depression and suicides.
Hasn't this already been brought on by industrialisation and modern society?
That or reading too much Franz Kafka...
...STOP THAT!...
Who exactly are you typing to there?
according to your reply to my comment you did not have a clue what i meant...
