All animal activists need to completely stop this line of research, is 1 mouse to 'accidentally' squeak "Please stop"...
Great idea to give the mice a possible source of communication before testing other things that won't as easily hamper the whole process..
I've seen it. I have a couple friends where one would rather pirate because he doesn't keep playing for long, and another one who buys so he can have an actual case for it. Doesn't matter who found the game first either, though they don't always get the any game the other tells them about.
Untrue. Telemarketers can NOT call you past 9pm at night, though I'm unsure how early in the morning.
Also, telephone surveys are exempt from the same rules.
A lot of Government owned services here in the U.S. actually became cheaper when turned private because it was done on a bidding system. If the company was believed to be a lesser desired choice, they were fired, and therefore lost their chance at profit. (Source: John Stossel goes to Washington)
get me a basic cable with video on demand since I work during all of the showtimes for the shows I like, and I'll be fine with the internet not having TV on it. Until then, the internet grabbing the video makes sense and is simple logical progression based on convenience needs. I don't have the equipment to record shows while I'm away from home, so that's not an option.
Overtaxed? Are you kidding me? If anything, Americans are extremely UNDER taxed.
Have you looked at your deficit recently? Have you ever compared your personal income tax rates to any other country's other than tax heavens? I didn't think so.
That's like saying John Doe is a nicer guy than Joe Sixpack because Joe beats his wife three times a week and John only beats his wife twice a week.
If he had only compared U.S. taxes to other countries' you would be correct. However, he didn't--he also asked you to look at the deficit. Therefore your analogy fails. We do in fact need higher taxes in order to pay off the monstrous debt we're accumulating. Only anti-Americans would still be wanting lower taxes given the huge crisis we're facing.
And then what? Anti-Americans are the ones that think simply increasing the taxes will fix the problem.
We need to get the government to stop spending money it doesn't have on things we don't want. Such as keeping us in wars, and throwing out trillions to let badly managed companies stay afloat. They put billions into the economy to prevent a standard recession, not realizing that it would create a depression later on as things become overpriced and over credited until the whole thing collapsed.
So who are the anti-Americans? The people who want to stop the idiots in congress? Or the ones that think the idiots in congress who make more than the average American would CARE about the average American..
I could go on, but why don't you youtube a video on it instead.
well, you first must assume that politicians these years CARE about a constitutional right.. I haven't met any other than Ron Paul that seem to care about those rights anymore.
I once had to code PHP on a keyboard where the shift keys didn't work. The IT policy for the place prevented me from bringing my own keyboard, and management had decided that purchasing a new keyboard wouldn't be cost effective..
Someone mod the parent up.. that was funny as heck when put in context.
oh wait.. that's right, things in context don't get mod points:(..
But can it run crysis?
He can see more than flashes. It can see through clothing too. He's just not going to tell anyone about that affect so that the women who are looking in curiosity won't think anything of him looking... 'down'...
I'm not so sure about that. Based on the settlement style they accepted, and that they went with trademark infringement, I'd say They wanted it noted that the bio linked to was not someone high up in the company, and that the link was going to their website at a glance. silly idea for us, but I can actually see confusion by people who are not computer literate. I say that because I've worked with people who can't distinguish their computer from their browser (as many here have) and I really don't think those people would be able to tell the difference without such an obvious setup.
I don't get the impression of "don't link to our employee bios on your site" as much as "make sure people know it's OUR site they will be looking at"
I was gambling this one time down in the luxor, and was winning on the roulette table (go red!). I'd been there an hour or so, and started with a couple of dollars. I kept putting half of my winnings on my bets, and keeping the other half for safety. Somewhere around $800,000 in winnings, I had a couple of bouncers, and a short chubby guy with a top hat come over to me, and ask me to follow them. They only let me grab a handful of chips before dragging me away from the table too!
Well, after 7 minutes of dragging, and 3 minutes of walking (your heels start to hurt after a while of being drug around..) they finally threw me in this small room with a chair, and a hanging lamp (ugly lamp too.. had like a green cover or something, and the darn thing just kept rocking back of fourth!) They tried my wrists and ankles to the chair and walked out.
I sat there for a little while, until finally some punk in a nice suit came in, holding a pair of branch trimmers. We talked for a few minutes, he accused me of cheating a few times, and then tried to cut off my right hand with the trimmers! He tried for a good 10-15 minutes, until finally deciding that the trimmers he grabbed were just too small to fit around my wrist.
So they just threw me out of the casino, and told me to never come back. I went to the police, but they didn't believe me, and threatened to throw me in an asylum. Talk about a bad week.
hmm.. better one. Here's a list of processes running under MY user name, AFTER telling the computer to start up with ALL start up apps disabled in msconfig (Vista Ultimate btw) 1) Desktop Window Manager (will this count?) 2) explorer (that's required for the most part.. does it count?) 3) SOUNDMAN (what's with realtek and making this program always start up?) 4) task scheduler engine 5) unsecapp (something for wmi.. gets turned off manually after boot) 6) wmpnscfg (why must WMP try to network?) 7) windows updater
so.. there's 6 programs from the OS that are running under my username.. will any of those count as apps in the 3 only rule?
Also, there are 2 apps running without any username.. wonder if those will count against me as well 0.o
I believe a food analogy would help make Jeff's point a little better.
People who can't cook, should learn to cook with only personally selected 2-3 ingredients (meaning all the things their mother tells them to put in don't count.. ie flower, eggs, milk etc(cookies, joy:) )).. Then when they know a bit more about cooking, they can add more ingredients.
You wouldn't need 3 licenses. It's the same copy running on only 1 machine. I don't think their eula has anything about running multiple instances of the operating system on the same machine.
This is an speculative opinion made by the poster of the article this thread is referencing, not a new bit of news. This shouldn't be posted until there's someone with a little more authority on the decision than a columnist saying it.

Right.. you think he wanted to be doing his job to begin with? Don't be an ass just because he's not lucky enough to get a different job.
Untrue. Telemarketers can NOT call you past 9pm at night, though I'm unsure how early in the morning. Also, telephone surveys are exempt from the same rules.
nothing. They just tell you to reinstall the OS, or get a new HDD.

I'm not sure if that was a whoosh moment or a perfect addition to the idea of 'common' slashdot comments to store encoding in 0.o
Ah but you can choose not to have SMS messaging, your phone can show you how many minutes you have used.
You can choose to turn picture and graphics off in your browser too, and then selective click "show all" on the pictures you want to see...

boot into safemode, then run spybot. that's how you fix that.

actually.. if you go from binary, to quantary values, a 1GB binary disk would become a 1 exabyte disk.
nope.. just first time I actually RTFA...

I agree, that's what I gathered from the article as well.
