    Using the word orientated without condemning the sexual perversion and sin against G-d of homosexual behavior, is illegal.

    Because we lack the testicular fortitude to take what was rightfully ours. And by that I mean in every war in human history, the spoils of plunder goes to the victors.

    In Iraq, we were the victors, over a nation rich in black gold, and we let them keep it.

    We should have exterminated every muslim scum in the country and went on to wipe out the rest of the raghead camel fuckers in the entire middle east.

    A righteous and good nation would have went to eradicate the nasty religions of islam, judaism and christianity fro the face of the planet.

  6. Re:Weird on Activision Axes Guitar Hero · · Score: 2
    Yep.

    For some strange reason Activision seems to think that the best business practice is to take good selling, popular games and makes changes to the fundamental playstyles and goals of the games.

    You add to games, not take things away.

    Morons ought to look at AutoCad for examples.

    The same keyboard commands from R10 are still available and working in the latest release. New stuff has been added, but the old stuff is still there.

  7. Re:Option? on Microsoft Kills AutoRun In Windows · · Score: 4, Insightful

    One of the most annoying things about Windows. Hiding the file extension by default.

    Ok, a missed symbol entry engendered this much hostility, lol.

    Since I am not quite sure what this IPV6 actually is, I guess it is too difficult to explain if an older router will continue to work.

    In the sense of getting me to slashdot, google, WW, FB, wired, porn, and various other sites I frequent.

    Ok. I am a techno-idiot. Is my current linksys router, circa. 203-ish, going to be OK, or is it going to not work?

    In NC if you fire someone who does not have a contract, for any reason other than a few Constitutionally protected ones (guess what, free speech is not one of these), you are good to go.

    My Voodoo 3 worksd fine. I have been thinking about getting a better card when I upgrade my ME install, but that isn't going to happen until they get all the bugs worked out of XP.

    Because the cost of including them help subsidize the purchase price. Subtract the windows tax and most newer computers are hard pressed to be beaten by a custom build on price and specs.

  13. Re:really anonymous, or just named Anonymous? on Anonymous Isn't Anonymous Anymore · · Score: 1
    No, because there is no anonymous to teach them. They are idiots who did something they thought was right, and got caught.

    You seem to think there is a organized group of these folks.

    There is not. There is just multitude of groups, each comprised of an individual, answering to only themselves.

    No one has any responsibility to teach them jack. They can learn how on their own, or go to jail.

    Or refrain from doing things that might send them to jail.

  14. What co-workers? on Is Setting Up an Offshore IT Help Desk Ethical? · · Score: 0
    He was un-employed, therefore did not have co-workers.

    He did have fellow unemployed "whatever his skills were".

    The only unethical behavior I see here is his refusal to take a job that would allow him to provide for his family. And then again, that might not be unethical, just a POS move by someone who is supposed to be looking for work while sucking the state's tit, being fed by mine and every other working person's cash.

    Typical NCDOT (or any NC Governmental agency) when questioned about their employees skills, work, competency or abilities. "They are perfect and the complaining idiot is wrong. Good day."

  17. Re:Professional Organizations / Type of Ponzi Sche on N.C. Official Sics License Police On Computer Scientist For Too Good a Complaint · · Score: 1

    BS! Licensing requirements are about limiting competition. I hold five professional Licenses in NC, under 5 different boards. 3 of them are useless, serving only to lock out competition. 1 of them is semi-useful, but way too restrictive in terms of requirements, and the last one actually serves a useful public safety function, in albeit limited capacity.

  18. When did they start handing out 15 mod points instead of 5? Off topic, I know. It seems like about every other tie I get mod points it is for 15.

  19. I can work for a company turning wrenches and make 60k a year as a Refrigeration service tech here in NC. I can do SA Tx for the state and start at 50k plus yearly raises and good benefits, along with a good retirement pay, and the ability to make another 30-ish k doing private assessments and maybe run an educational Tx group twice a week for SA offenders. 80k sounds low for a PE.

    It's NC. My dentist killed his wife with a pocket knife by cutting her throat. And he walked on the 1st degree murder charges. And his practice is still thriving. He is a very good dentist also, and charges very reasonable prices.

  21. Lacy must have had mod points. Or maybe one of the idiot Mechanical or Electrical inspectors managed to figure out how to turn their computer up and stumbled upon /. and got mod points. Flamebait though? Pshw!

    Sorry, this is NC. Our cities and towns do not pay for accidents they cause. Google it. Hell, the sheriff of Forsyth County NC ran a red light, wrecked a couple of citizens cars, and did not even get a ticket, until he "decided" he should and asked the city chief of police to write him one. And the citizens who cars he wrecked? Too bad, so sad, and here, go file for damages under the uninsured motorists portion of your car insurance because Forsyth county is not going to pay for them.

    Ah, the days of T-squares and protractors, along with the trusty angles and a french curve. I remember when drafting really got serious, when they came out with those floating heads so you could just turn the dial and get the angle you wanted.

    BS. Unless the engineer in NC signs off on the plan, or does the work with the knowledge it will be used, he is not responsible for the plan being used. And that comes from Persian friend who taught Civil Engineering at A&T for over 20 years, who finally retired and fulfilled his life time ambition. He owns a little dive in the latino part of town and works Mon-Sat from 4am to 3pm cooking at the grill.
