    If you're looking for a Django alternative in php, look at Symfony.

    As usable as Chrome, depending on the build.

    I'm talking about $2.50 purchases. First they empty your account with the large charges, then they run the small ones, ensuring many overdraft charges. And they'll let you keep on using it for more purchases after you ovedraft. A credit card, on the other hand will just decline. Some of them will give you a single overage fee, but that's it.

    I'm bias

    Bias is not a verb. Biased is.

    didn't you ever notice that the bank processes the largest transaction in your account first, ensuring that when you do overdraft, it's 5 or 6 times for $2.50. The credit card will just decline.

    Konqueror has a windows port, too.

    Does anyone get the feeling this has all happened before, then laws were enacted to stop it, then Bush was elected and said laws were repealed?

  10. Re:Good luck with that. on Rocket Racing League Flights With Armadillo Engine · · Score: 1

    Then watch it on TV. NASCAR doesn't exactly make it's money on ticket sales, I doubt the RRL will either.

    I hate to break it to you, but ALL PC techs copy your porn and music. It's one of the job perks.

    A 40GB limit on a 20 Megabit connection? That's only 4.5 hours of download time!

  16. Re:I smell a lawsuit. on Comcast To Cap Data Transfers At 250 GB In October · · Score: 1

    I like old shows, and there are plenty of full seasons available. So many I doubt I'll ever get through them all. Plus if I stopped watching I'd miss gems like Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog. I find myself watching it a lot more since I hooked it up to my PS3. It's only standard definition, but i don't need to see Alf in HD. Airwolf in HD would be cool, though.

    Do you know how much you have to pay for 250gb of transfer from a reasonably well known colocation provider?

    I pay $62.50 for 250GB.

    I use at least 250GB just watching hulu. Thankfully Cox not only doesn't seem to mind, but they just doubled my bandwidth without increasing the price.

    I thought the first thing you learned with SQL was creating and deleting databases. I've never met anyone who learned the former, but not the latter. You must have a TON of databases on your system.

    It's a sad day when getting your car dirty raises your insurance rates. My lawn is brown, and I don't pay anything extra on my homeowners insurance for it.

    I'm sure parents will have no problem finding quality daycare for the $36,000/year they were paying Google.

    Neat. So do they have Dark Side of the Moon synced to The Wizard of Oz? That's always a pain to get synced right, especially when you're stoned.
