It's like that? Well, yes I have two intact balls. I'm sorry about yours. The reason why is that it's easier for a child to grasp concepts like "it's wrong to hurt people" than it is to understand why "Sex is for people older than you. One day you'll probably do it, but 7 is too young"
It's how you have kids, and my kids love babies.:) My little girl already knows that she's going to grow boobs in a few years and that she can't get pregnant before then.
I have no children of my own, I am helping my GF raise hers. Please keep your little harlot away from the boys. You've misinformed her, females are maturing reproductively faster than ever before. It is entirely possible that she COULD get pregnant before she has breasts. But if you don't understand that, why should she?
The only thing the program does is send a network message, it doesn't actually modify data on the computer other than itself.
To send that information without permission of the user does in fact modify information. Ram, Registers, the TCI/IP stack.
I have mixed feelings about this. I support it when people use civil disobedience to advance a cause but this is something else entirely.
They're installing malicious code on people's machines without their permission. That isn't cool.
I think that child molestors are the lowest form of life on the planet, but I can't agree with vigilantes breaking into people's houses and spying just because THEY THINK that those people are molesting their children.
Every time there is an announcement made about something that is so very obviously a BAD thing we get people like this asshat, trying to pretend that it's a good idea.
People like this would praise prison rapists as freedom fighters who want to rid jails of constipation.
I'd much rather my kid was exposed to a handful of swearwords and see the occasional brest, then be shown TV shows that makes them think everyone's a criminal so it must be OK.
Damn, too late.
Ok, my question then becomes, would you rather explain to your child why the bad man shot someone or why the bad woman had a penis her mouth?
You have the chance to go out in persuit of Eurobooty and get paid to do it?
My advice GO. GO NOW. Don't look back. Everyone and their brother gets to toil away at the regular jobs (provided that they have them) you have the chance to live a dream. If the people offering you this are on the level, go. Seriously, I can't believe you even have to think about it. No kids, no woman, no ties. Get the hell out of here and do your thing!
I am considering refusing to take work calls or text messages on my personal cell phone, and even quitting in protest of the new policy.
Refusing to take work calls and text messages on your personal cell is something I would have been doing from the beginning. My personal cell costs me money, and unless they're compensating me for its use, they will not be using it to contact me.
If an employer feels that it's going to be necessary to contact me when I'm not at work, they should pay for a cell phone or (God forbid!) a pager.
Advise your employer that the new policy is unacceptable to you, and give the reasons why. Also let them know that you will be looking for other employment unless the policy is changed back. Chances are they won't care, but you put yourself in a better position. If they terminate you because of it, you can get unemployment compensation while you look for other employment(assuming that you're in the US).
Just as likely not, he may want to keep clean hands on this one for credibility.

Debian threads (like this one) get overrun by people flaming Gentoo for no apparent reason at all. It's always a Debian user that brings Gentoo up like some ex-girlfriend that slept with their friends and dumped them.
I'm a Mandrake user. And I started bashing Gentoo in this thread.
Level headed people like myself that use both OS's step in and start shooting down the zealot posts.
How did you get the gentoo-cursors package to install? None of the mirrors had the file when I attempted to install xfree on my machine?
Debian is great.
I wouldn't know. I haven't tried it yet. I just downloaded the ISOs about two weeks ago, but no time to try it out.
Debian is great.
I wouldn't know. Both times I attempted to install it, the install failed when I attempted to emerge X because the gentoo-cursors package couldn't be found. That's what my original gripe was.
Gentoo isn't your ex-girlfriend that slept with your friends and dumped you simply because it's better at a lot of things.
I've already found it in my heart to forgive that whore. It was high school! But I'm still annoyed with Gentoo.
And no, I'm obviously not new here.
Neither am I. Speaking of what's obvious, I've been a LOT more active here than you. So please stop using that low UID as a crutch to try to help your credibility.
It's when the zealots start getting all serious about their pet OS and start making ridiculous assersions about another ones that their true colors show.
"Ridiculous assersions" like the fact that I tried for 6 hours to emerge xwindows and gentoo-cursors wasn't available from any of the mirrors?
But you are still harboring and shielding students from their illegal actions, and that still puts the IT department and college in the crosshairs.
To get involved at all can put you in the crosshairs. If you are admitting that you are legally responsible, the next question becomes if you are being negligent by not taking reasonable steps to stop other forms of copyright infringement. So, you block Kazaa, Napster, and BitTorrent, what about Freenet? What about Hotline? What about the myriad other p2p protocols that people sometimes(often) use to violate the copyrights of others?
...and people wonder why Apple won't port OS X to the x86 platform. Here's your answer.
That's a part of the reason. Apple is more concerned with maintaining control. As long as they are the source of the Hardware and the OS, what they say goes. Remember when cloners were putting PS2 ports on their machines? Two button mice? Simple things like that caused people to buy clones instead of Apples. Just imagine how many fewer people would buy Apples if they could build their own OS X boxes.
Casual copying has never been a real problem for the industry. Where the lose BIG MONEY is with organized crime. You and your DVD-/+R/W couldn't put a dent in their profits. Go to Blockbuster and copy to your heart's content. Commercial manufacturing plants in Taiwan shipping perfectly produced bootlegs all over the planet IS where a lot of money is lost.
Ok, that trans-atlantic tranlation loses me every time.
I have a project car that is not roadworthy yet, but in addition to some of the things that ricers do (like neon, and maybe ground effect), I'm also going to be putting in a hefty V8 and high performance ignition. Don't worry I think spoilers look stupid, so I'm not going there.
I used to work with a guy who used to tell all kinds of wild stories about him racing (and beating) Vipers and Corvettes with his Saturn Station Wagon. I don't know which was worse, that he told these stories or that he really thought people believed them.
I can't wait leave one of those guys and his four banger sucking my exhaust.
Relating to automobiles, yes. And insurance companies are wholeheatedly with me on this issue.
Behind the wheel of an automobile is a bad place for most teenagers. That has nothing to do with other common sense skills, like changing oil or reading a book and following directions.

On the overall theme, I seriously would prefer to explain violence to a child than overt sexuality.
Really, I'd not particularly like it, but I'd much rather see my daughter becoming a porn star, than thief or a murderer.
Given my choice of the 3, I'd prefer thief first. Pornstar second. Murderer third.
Call my inconsistent if you want, but I'd prefer my son be a pornstar first.
