The new mandriva 2008 was the first linux distro to properly identify all of my hardware and configure my wireless device without any issues. I could switch to it full time, but I'm a glutton for punishment.
Yep... and since then all we've done is strip NASA of money and credibility. They're still flying that piece of shit space shuttle and I haven't seen a replacement. Our space interests are probably the most important, yet they're treated like a red-headed stepchild.
Yeah it's pretty pathetic how they treat changes in each direction differently. Even a marginal increase is fuel for the climate bandwagon fire, yet a substantial decrease is explained away as natural variation.... The same argument could be used every year, no matter the change, because that's all our atmosphere is... a living breathing reaction that changes every microsecond.. expanding, contracting, or staying relatively the same depending upon all of the chemicals and temperatures at work. We need to stop worrying about this and focus our energy on colonizing other planets... Earth will not be habitable forever, by our hand or otherwise.
yeah, really. kfc does fried chicken.. doesn't much matter they're both owned by the same mega-global-corporation.
that's like saying my local Subway sells gasoline because its in the same building as the station, and owned by the same indians.
I just left the men's room where I laid the foundation for this lunch I'm about to eat from Burger King. I'm not going to be responsible for the box it came in, only assisting in BK's usage of my digestive system.
In other equally shocking news... The majority of online videos are pornography, fake web cam advertisements for pornography, and videos of people getting hit in the balls. The sky is still blue, and so are my balls.
Forgetting to lock it, no... but giving you the key, yes. You're also wrong about the email... You're completely within your rights to read anything that comes to your inbox, though you should ethically follow any signature instructions they provide regarding deleting it and informing the sender.
FYI that was about 7 years ago and I've never lost a job since.
Many years ago I worked as a temp in a helpdesk situation. The position included tons of down-time, and one day I filled in the gaps by browsing what available resources I had been granted access to. I assumed that as a temp, I would have almost no access at all as any such access was not required in order to open a ticket.
Much to the contrary, I was able to access the entire salary list for the organization, and detailed networking topography and connections for all the remote offices. I reported this immediately and was thanked, not discouraged in any way, for what I did. However, a week or so later at the stroke of 5pm after all of the techs had left, I got a call from a remote office that could not access some resource... I tried to help troubleshoot the issue, and again looked around on the network for info that might help. I found an IP address I could ping. I pinged it and was able to at least report the results to the tech when I called them. I was terminated the next day, much to my surprise since I was completely honest and upfront with them at all times, and I was only trying to help (as opposed to the first time, when I was snooping intentionally and was not scolded).
I'm a believer in the idea that if you give me access to something, I'm free to utilize it... Controlling access is the admins responsibility. Yes, I'll state that again... If you give me access to the HR drive, I have every right to view the spreadsheets inside. The company has every right to fire you for screwing up and giving me that access, and every right to fire me if I publish it or do something other than keep it to myself.

and the fact that you go to lan parties works wonders with the ladies, i'm sure.
ruined harddrives, that is.
Brilliant!

I'm going to tear God a new asshole for doing such a crappy job with the thermal paste.

What's the actual resolution being output? 640p?... What is happening in the 360 when it's supposedly outputting 1080p?
They should really set their goals a little higher... You could as least aspire to fix everything, even though you probably won't.
As if we need more proof that the PS3 sucks and is only selling to fanbois and early blu-ray adopters.

this is news, how?... taco bell doesn't do fried chicken, and I don't do windows.

I doubt it would work in that fashion. To dispute any such claim by microsoft, the adware companies have years of prior art.
