  1. Re:I've always wondered on Interviews: Ask James Randi About Investigating the Truth · · Score: 1

    Chula Vista?

    Wow. Is Uncle Sam's Barbecue still open, and do they still have the BEST Motown/Stax jukebox west of St Louis?

    That was our stop, on the way to TJ, from North Park. We'd get suits and boots down there, when the Peso hit 400 to the Dollar.

    The Zeros were from Chula, too. So be proud. Punk rock was born in the west coast in CV. Before ANYBODY, unless the Flaming Groovies count.

    Middle-class teen girls have disposable money, and an unfulfilling emotional life.

    Twilight fills the vacuum - for a price. Now, there's a mini-industry that sells more than Rowling did.

    I had a girl try to come on to me, asking if I were "into" the para-normal.

    I said, "No. Just regular sex."

    Randi,

    Did you know that you are the only real being in existence, and that the entire known universe - and every situation in it - are products of your singular imagination? You will always expose paranormal fraudsters, because that is the reality you are authoring.

    This message is a little, internal voice escaping from somewhere inside your mind, saying: "Unleash the skies full of winged unicorns! Zoom through space and time! This existence is a beautiful dream, not a day-job."

  7. Re:Provoking on Machine Gun Fire From Military Helicopters Flying Over Downtown Miami · · Score: 1

    If by "doing pretty well" you mean clearing city-blocks of all living inhabitants, indiscriminately killing children and other innocents? If you mean shattering the infrastructure for viable urban existence, including the shattering of water mains and gas distribution?

    Then I'd have to agree. This is going "pretty well".

    It's called "collective punishment". It was demonstrated in Serbia and Iraq, It is being perpetrated in Somalia, Yemen and Pakistan.

    It's a war crime, and the tactic favoured by Hanibal, Genghis Khan, Hernando Cortez and Adolph Hitler.

    Yes. Loose use of the term, vs. the popular FPS - a genre introduced by the iD software game.

    Yes, several folks beat me to Dan Bricklin and VisiCalc, and of course WordStar from San Rafael, California.

    Add Castle Wolfenstein - the Apple ][ side-scroller - and TurboPascal. Heck! Sidekick and Borland's .ovl file function layouts.

  12. Re:First rule of embedded web servers on Thousands of Publicly Accessible Printers Searchable On Google · · Score: 3, Informative

    There is a way to upload new printer firmware - usually protected with default administrator credentials. First, set the printers TCP settings to point to YOUR own DNS host.... :-)

    This reminds me of yesterday's article - cooling with lasers.
