Actully it's expired, and theres lots of knockoffs, just walk into a toystore lately. Most of the knockoffs focus on military though, which is somthing Lego has refused to do.
Thats funny, if a company was blacklisting cards because of chargebacks they would lose their cc reading abilities. It's against the terms of service you see. So really, the only place that is losing out when you do chargebacks is the company.
Um you're right about everything about the fast food, theres no loss leaders in fast food. I used to order stuff for mcdonalds 3 times a week. Our cost for a hamburger was 10 cents. Our cost for a cheeseburger was like 14. Cost for a big mac was I think maybe 29 cents. The most expensive thing was the filet o fish...a whole 60 cents. Trust me there are no loss leaders at mcdonalds.
They had all of one bad line, they fixed it without issue. Shit happens, people make mistakes, at least IBM fessed up and fixed them. I would still trust an ibm drive over anything else today, except maybe a samsung who if I remeber correctly bought IBMs harddrive buisness.
I work in scottsdale 3-4 times a week, everyone has laptops and everyone had wireless networks for said laptops. Amazingly all the networks are name linksys, although theres 1 or 2 that are name My Network and one that is quite humorously named StayOut and has no wep, wap, or mac filtering.
What I used to do in these situations when I worked at fry's was to get some epoxy. Make sure it's not conductive. Then remove all solder thats on there, resolder the jack. Then put epoxy all around the jack. It won't move after that, I've succesfully done this on a couple of iBooks and numerous HP's, just be warned it's not a factory authorized thing.
And it's also obvious that given any two distinct points, there is exactly one line that includes both points. Isn't it? It has never been proven, nor can it be proven. But it seems so obvious!
not sure if you meant to say that it hasn't been proven, but multiple lines can connect 2 points if the surface is curved like a sphere or somthing. for example, say you want to connect dc to la straight line across the us, of course you could also have a line go at an angle up through canada and around the world and connect with the lax, so it's possible with a sphere.
I'm sorry, this is completely offtopic and not really even appropriate, but I just gotta say this. Everytime someone does somthing bad people say well they'll suffer for eternity. Problem is the only requirement in chrisitanity to get into heaven is to accept Christ as you're lord and saviour. So all those people have to do is accept him and bingo, they get all the money in this life and everything in the next. Mod me down now
ahh...thats the thing I love about State Farm, I sign everything at the office nothing else comes by except the "official cards and paperwork" which are the plastic cards and paperwork on how to file claims and stuff. No other terms and condition. If the terms and conditions change I get notice at least 30 days before the change goes into effect during which time I can cancel my policies with no loss other than me trying to find a new provider. Course there was the exception with the credit reports but I didn't get bit by that.
It's been analogized to buying insurance (where you pay well before you get the terms)
Thats funny, I had to sign a 5 page document when I got my car insurance, life insurance and homeowners insurance, that document was admittidely far more complex than I could make out but I'm sure that if I wanted I could have faxed it to a lawyer to have them look at it first. I don't know about the plane ticket analogy but you insurance one is pretty flawed.

I'll be the first to admit I'm not in good enough shape to do that, of course it was about 45 miles to work each way, luckily only 12 miles was on congested freeway, and that was only going in thanks to having to work 2-3 hours overtime every friggin day. Now though after a center closure I get to drive all over the place looking for work.
1) Generally its the height of the vehicle that makes entry/exit easeier.
2) You've never driven in rush hour traffic on a freeway that averages 10 mph for 2-3 hours have you? There isn't much of a way to avoid being rearended by some dumbfuck. You can leave yourself a half car length,(any more and someone will jump in front of you anyway) but even with that you have to decide do you want to be responsible for hitting the person in front of you also and making it into a three or more car pileup. Although since I don't know the situation, it's possible you're right, maybe even likely.
3) I agree, by itself this point is worthless, in conjuntion with others(occasional offroad, anything a that 4 wheel drive helps with) it does become a decent point.
4) Lincoln navigators arn't even 4x4s those are the types of cars that shouldn't be allowed, horribly fuel inefficiant and just plain ugly. But I've got a Kia Sportage suv and that sucker goes anywhere I need when I go camping. I just wanna point out about mine to, I get about 25mpg, seat 5 comfortably and can haul a weekends worth of camping supplies easily. I generally do that once a month or so, ain't found a better vehicle for me yet.
I doubt it was anything to do with the atmosphere, I mean they've landed several probes already I think they know what to expect, and the landing type wasn't new either. What in all liklyhood happened is some idiot forgot to solder the positive connection to the antenna.
Umm, the diffrent types of win2k are how well they implement network software...the UI is exactly the same, in fact pro could easily do all the stuff server advanced does, it just doesn't becuae they took out a few of the programs. with linux they all look diffrent, and I shouldn't need to learn 5+ UI's to write a program that everyone can use. Sure I only need to rewrite a small portion but thats valuable time. I do understand the point of having diffrent workspaces for difffrent users, but make them all run similar, take the shells for win9x, like geoshell, or litestep or whatever, one program written for 9x will work with all of those without any problems
I'm impressed at you mastery of the enlish vocabulary, did you just learn Fucking? and you wanna know sumtin, coders arn't all there is, we have to design for the end user, sure soemtimes were lucky and that's us, but for most apps nowdays it's for the guy who got a computer for christmas.
Stupid Winix whiners ???? THAT is why linux will never come close to beating windows, macos, or even coming into a quasi mainstream. 80-90% of all linux comments involve bashing windows, well guess what a lot of people recognize that windows isn't the best, but it's got a lot of features that make it easy to use, I for one don't want to read a few 100 pages just to write a letter to granny. I've used linux, windows, macs, you name it, and the best os is prbly WinNT, because it's supported, and it's easy to use. Not to mention MS doesn't yell and threaten whenever someone offers a suggestion on how to improve windows, they consider the idea, then they buy it. I for one am just sick and tired of hearing about how grand linux is and how windows blows, guess what, I can do everything I want on a windows machine, and I can do everything I want on a linux machine, the only diffrence to me is that one group of users are assholes, and the other are idiots.

Ahh, but you forgot "One-Click Shopping", the most important technological innovation of the century....
What does that have to do with not being able to plug in devices to get sound ONTO the mac?

Wouldn't that be almost triple? Or are you staying with your carrier because you're bad at math?
Up way to late and I read that as found giant gorillas killing adults...
