  3. Re:Why does Bush hate Our Freedom? on Bush Backed Spying On Americans · · Score: -1, Troll

    I think the correct question should be, why don't democrats like our freedom? Democrats don't seem to be interested in protecting it. I.E. Weak on terrorism.

    Bush followed all the applicable laws, and members of congress knew about it. I don't see what the problem is.

  9. enterprise's problem on Enterprise Fans Buy Full-Page Ad In LA Times · · Score: 5, Insightful

    the problem with enterprise isn't the show, its ha da great 3rd and 4th series that tie the episodes together. (unlike TNG where enterprise just flew around the galaxy doing whatever and none of the episodes tied anything together)

    Anyway, getting back to my point, the problem is that its shown on UPN. who watches UPN? nobody, look at their ratings on every show. If enterprise was on Fox the ratings would be through the roof. Heck where I live, there is no local UPN station (so I can't get with with my satalite subscriber or on a antenna) so I have to download the copy from usenet the morning after the new episode airs.

    but here we do have local fox, abc, cbs, nbc, and wb (bleh) affiliates. for gods sake, show enterprise on anything other then UPN and you'd have great ratings. The problem isn't enterprise, the problem is that nobody watches UPN, no matter what UPN has on tv.

  10. Whoops! on North Korea Admits to Having Nuclear Weapons · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I guess Bill Clinton shouldn't of trusted Kim Jong II when he said "Give me nuclear material and I promise not ot make nukes". See how well that turned out? Sending Carter over there didn't help things either, not that it would, Carter hasn't met a dictator he didn't love.

  14. Re:my side jobs on What Do People in the IT Field Do for Side Jobs? · · Score: 1

    I think car insurance companies offer special insurance to people that use their car for work purposes. but domino's didn't ask or tell me anything about that. all domino's cared about was that I had atleast the minimum amount of insurance required by law on my car. I just show them my insurance card, manager signed off the form. if I got in a wreck while delivering, I dunno. But I was delivering in a very ragged out 1988 ford ranger. so I didn't really care that much, as long as I didn't hit anybody else. and if I did get in a wreck, i just wouldn't tell the ins. co that I was using it to deliver pizza.

  15. my side jobs on What Do People in the IT Field Do for Side Jobs? · · Score: 1

    I have 3 side jobs.

    1) I repair my familys/friends computers. I don't usually charge, and when I do, I usually don't ask for money. Cookies will do.

    2) Auto Mechanic. I'll do just about anything they ask, because mechanic shops fucking rip you off. A rebuild alternator at autozone is $50 and an hour of my time. Try $300 at a shop. outrageous! I know the mechanic has a wife and kids to feed, but come on, that is just rediculous. I also will do their shocks, belts, oil changes, air filter, etc. I won't swap out a transmission or anything like that, but if its something I can do in a few hours, sure no problem.

    3) i used to deliver pizza. I quit recently though. Its not as glamourous as it seems. donino's is minimum wage plus $1 for gas per delivery. And most people don't tip, so its hard to make that much money. Plus when you aren't making deliveries, you are ringing up orders, making pizzas, fokding boxes, taking pizza out of the oven, dealing with an asshole manager, etc.

    got any questions, just ask me.

    Each state has an archives + history department (or somethign similar to archive all state history). You can go to your state's archies and history dept and pull just about any state newspaper from any time period that you want. We go from the present (well a couple of weeks before present, it takes us a few days to convert the newspaper to microfilm). our oldest newspaper on microfilm is from 1736.

    Yes its not online. we don't have the staff or money to put it online, pesently, but we are trying to put as much of our records online right now.

    Anyway, you can check out the one I work for, and if you Live in Mississippi, please come by and check us out. We are open 6 days a week and are totally free.

  20. Re:Why do people like Bush on White House Lied About Iraq Nuclear Programs · · Score: 1

    your job belongs to your employer, not you. you have a skill an employer wants and they hire you for that task and compensate you with money for your skill. because you can't change with the times and learn a new job skill is nobody's fault but your own. Healthcare premiums have gone up because of frivilous lawsuits. they would have gone up even if gore was the president. if you want to lower your healthcare costs, don't vote in kerry because edwards is a trial lawyer that got rich off of frivilous medical lawsuits. tort reform is the answer to lower healthcare costs, but democrats are against tort reform. 17 shells containing sarin gas have been found. this is enough chemical WMD to kill 500000 people in a major metropolean area. also saddam had enough nuclear material to make 142 nuclear bombs. http://www.talonnews.com/news/2004/august/0810_sad dams_nukes.shtml How is your freedom harmed by the patriot act. how has it directly affected you or restricted you in any way? What rights is bush trying to take away. marriage is a privilage, not a right, and marriage has many social positives (mainly to civilize the male, to bare children, improved social values, etc) Where in the constitution does it say that your employer is required to give you a raise? if you do your job well and increase business, your employer will compensate you well. I work for state government and I haven't gotten a raise in 3 years, but you don't see me bitching. Instead, I got a 2nd job delivering pizza. why can't you? Assault weapons before the ban accounted for a very small number of crimes (something like less then .002% of all crimes that dealt with firearms) and banned assault weapons have only caused 3 murders in the USA. So how is bush directly related to high gas prices? The problem with gas is that we don't have enough refining capacity. we have plenty of supply, but many cities have special blends, so a refinary has to shut down, switch to special blend 1 for a few weeks, shut back down, switch to blend 2, repeat. there has not been a new refinary constructed in the USA since 1976. No one can do anything about fuel costs because liberals like you protest everytime a new refinary is proposed. you can't have it both ways, bud. If you want to decrease your fuel costs, get a vehicle with better gas mileage (and then you may pay more in insurance for it and you'll bitch about that) and get a digital programmable thermostat for your A/C/Heat, or buy a newwer, more efficient system. Gore could have been president, but he lost fair and square. Gore said every vote counts....as long as its a vote for a democrat. he was even going to court to get the military absentee ballots thrown out because they were mailed from overseas using the military mail system and not the US postal service.

    we have several servers at work that tar.bz2 themselves up nightly and then scp the large .tar.bz2 file over to another server connected to an 8 tape autoloader. all the servers go through a copper cisco gigabit switch and even at gigabut speeds you are topping out at about 23megabytes/sec and transfering a 20GB+ file at this speed still takes several minutes. The servers all use raid 0 and can read faster then 23megabytes/sec so the quicker it can be transfered to the tape connected backup server the better.

    really, who cares? yes the access to the information would be great, but the new york times is a heavily biased news organization with a lot of liberal spin and mis-information. the new york times will lie to make up stories (jason blair anyone?) or just beat a story to death in an attempt to make president bush look bad.
