    So 4CHAN, er I mean anonymous is doing something constructive for a change? Or are they simply trolling Australia for the Lulz?

    If anything I think of Anonymous as a sort of physical collective superego and id for the internet with no mediating ego, they're more like a force of nature than anything else.

    Stop trying to put a fucking label on me jackass. It's people like you that eat babies because they are so very fresh and rather delicious but then have the nerve to go and never file your tax returns because the government 'disagrees' with your child molesting church hobby deduction. I mean seriously, when are you going to respond to the fact that in 1997 you raped and murdered a 97 year old man just to see if it was something you'd be interested in majoring in up at the local community college?

    Not a problem. A cheap IR detector like what is used with security systems should work. At least up to 98 degrees... A cheap cmos camera with a rudimentary motion detection system should also work.

    I can only speak from my own experience of running my first business with my partner and trying to play by all the rules and not cheat anyone. Just making enough to pay the rent every month was the norm. Anyway we closed down that business and he decided to go over to the dark-side and so ran up all his credit cards, then went bankrupt, bought a new Honda right afterwords with cash and has made more money in one year than we both made in 7. He doesn't break any laws or at least not with what his business does but if his customers only knew how much he was dicking them for...

    LoL, anyway he's got me convinced to do evil in my future endeavors... I wish the rest of you idiots good luck...

  22. Re:Cheating on How Easy Is It To Cheat In CS? · · Score: 1

    it's so much easier to believe successful people must cheat then to accept the truth.

    Which truth would that be? Bailouts of inherently risky businesses in a supposedly free market system because they are simply too big to fail, or the gross incompetence of their management being rewarded with cash and expensive trips while the economy collapses.

    I'm sorry but to be honest you can't make a billion by being a nice guy and playing by the rules.

    Running any business is about selling something for more than you paid for it. Those who try and be fair make nothing while those who mark up things 50,000% become rich. In a fair free market system a person or business could not get away with this because someone would sell for a bit less but that doesn't seem to happen now does it?

    So 20% of your customers try to screw with you. Check around, you'll find that to be true in most industries. And guess what, it's very likely they'll try to screw you anyway, even when you deliver as promised.

    Depends on where you live I guess. In Virginia Beach I'd say the ratio is about 60/40 in regards to trying to screw with you and everyone wants you to reload their copy of office even if they never owned it as Word comes with windows. I got tired of having the exact same conversations years ago and gave and now work for the triad gang. Better benefits and less stress.

    So if you need to replace a motherboard, your OEM licence is still yours.

    Tell that to the guy in India who I gotta deal with from time to time that works for M$. Yes you can buy an OEM copy with a mouse but that doesn't mean you can use that copy on any computer as long as you keep the same mouse. But yes in reality oem copies are tied to whatever Microsoft wants them to be tied to and if you call enough you can always get them to re-activate it.

    Hey, If they do get fired one day they simply have to re-pad their resume and get their buddies to give good references. There isn't a "previous work database" where your history is kept.
