Those new EPA ratings are just as worthless as the old ones. My wifes 06 Civic (non Hybrid) gets 40MPG easy in the city. Everyone I know who owns one sees the same kind of mileage. So, I'd have to not trust those numbers just as much as the old ones.
Let it go. You've milked this cow long enough. Let Stargate die in peace. Atlantis too. And BSG too [if it doesn't stop sucking ass with filler episodes].
That's the problem. What is it? MySpace? Sure. Yahoo? Maybe. LinkedIn? Technically. Classifieds? The web IS about social networking at some level. It's a lost battle that can't even be defined, let alone enforced.
we can just gather the terrorists books/computers, put them into a pile, and burn them all. That should work.After that: internment camps...oops...too late.
Yes, because the only tool I have against stupid record companies, DRM pushers, and stupid advertising is my wallet. It sucks that Weird Al won't get my cash, but then again, he probably wouldn't anyways after the record company gets done with him. If he had any fortitude, he would've bypassed real record companies and went for real internet DRM free sales.
Same goes for any other band. I like DMB. Bought many of their albums. The minute Stand Up came out with DRM on the disc, I stopped buying. Sucks that they don't get my money, but that's life. Sames goes for honest game developers who are stuck with asshat game distributors putting DRM/Trojans on their install discs.
I call bullshit on that statement. There is no such thing as bad press. If it weren't for the video, I wouldn't be aware of the album, and no AOL premiere of any kind would have raised my attention to it. YouTube and GoogleVideo are the new age ot video awareness, and Universal has realized this already by giving them all of their music videos.
I saw it on YouTube, got excited about it, and looked forward to buying it. Now that AOL is being an asshat about it, I won't buy it. While the person who leaked it did do something wrong, the real problem here is still AOL and other large companies not realizing that the old dist and advertising models are dead and dying. Their knee jerk reactions to things like this only proves it, and does more damage than any leak will ever do.
I hate shit like this. This is one of those topics that flips my rant bit quite harshly. I'm fine with putting Child Sexual Predators on a list. Fine. Parents want to know where they live. Fine. People want to keep them away from schools. Fine.
But for the love of all that is reasonable, every fucking state in the nation needs to properly define what a Sexual Offender is. Everyone sees a name on a Sexual Offender list and assumes every person on it is a child molster. That that case of the guy who stalked and murdered two people in Maine last year that were on a list. One WAS a child predator. The other was 18 and banged his under age girlfriend and the parents caused a ruckass. That guy had no business being on that list. Hell, in some states, getting busted for public urination w/ your johnson hanging get's you on the Sexual Offenders list.
This bill and my retarded state just goes to prove my point. You're 30, poked your 16yo gf when you were 18. YOu got busted showing your dick in public while taking a piss on a drunk night. You don't deserve to be on this list, and harrased like a criminal because some asshat can't make understand the difference between sexual offenders, sexual predators, and sexual child predators.
Ditching your browser history stuffs is easy. The real problems are the shit IE/WMP throws in the users profiles index.dat file, and the shit WMP throws around when playing movies inline/downloaded. So, unless this browser also gets WMP to stop that, you're still going to get busted.
That said, it is a nice little exe to toss on the USB thumbdrive.
The inline spell checker needs to work in all text fields, not just textareas. Imagine I'm a user filling out a form with 10 text input boxes, and one textarea...having the manually click on each textbox and select "Spell check this field" is uncalled for. Just spell check them all.. or at least add a "Spell Check tThis Form"...
The only reason construction isn't dying is that we need it more than most. Try getting a job from the local musicians union. That doesn't work either. While there may be some benifits, 9 times of ten they only cause more problems, more disputes, and more hassles for their workers.
> Did it ever ONCE cross your mind that the government could actually be spying on people who need to be spied on?
That's not the problem. The NSA was built to spy on people who need spying on. The problem is, they, and the administration, are not following the laws set forthe to do so such spying (getting warrants, even after the fact). THAT is the problem here. They are breaking the law because they feel like it, and they believe they do not have to be accountable for doing so,
> Thunderbird that will eventually (once it becomes more mature and stable) be built into Thunderbird.
God I hope not. The whole point of splitting out Thunderbird and Firefox from the Uber Mozilla Suite was to keep each part simple, non bloated, and good at what they do on their own. Thunderbird is an email client, not a scheduling client. If people want to download an extension for scheduling, fine. But don't lather up Thunderbird with something that it probably doesn't need for most poeple.
Along the same lines, Firefox doesn't need to be a scheduling client either.
Chrysler/Dodge is not at a 'utility/common carrier' status line the airlines are. I would wager there are more ways to get a car, and from more manufacturer, than there are airlins to fly. But I see, and agree with your point for the most psrt.
The airline industry is a private corporation, not a federally run operation
Not entirely true. Since my tax dollars have bailed out the airline industry at least 4 times since 9/11, I don't believe they can be considered totaly private. Once the government deemed them a necessity to our economy (aka, a utility), we need to have more rights to use that 'utility'.
I call half bullshit. If a user visits maryjowanna.com and get's a cookie form there, that cookie only get's sent back to maryjowanna.com, and never sent to the whitehouse.gov servers by the browser. (all browser/javascript vulnerabilities aside).
Slashdot Mirror
So, apparently, the way to cheaper software here in the States is to ramp up piracy. Then we can get legit copies for $75 too.

No, professionals write good code, regardless of the language. There is just as much shitty Python/Ruby out there as there is Perl.

Rant mode off.
The -profile profiledir argument is your friend. Create a shortcut and stuff it in there.
Please, for the children, use TrueCrypt.

They are? And what exactly are the strongly type dataset with TableAdapers in ADO.NET 2.0? Smells like ORM stuff to me.

Not if you one of who knows how many users behind corporate Windows proxy servers.
And let's not forget NTLM secured company extranets.

It's about farging time already.
There are two things that kill whole industries: Government and Unions. Don't believe me?
Railroad? Check.
Airlines? Check.
Automotive? Check.
