When did they stop? I bought a boxed set of Mandrake 8 at walmart a few years ago. Other than distributions there isn't really much off-the-shelf software for linux. It would be good to see open source collection cds on the shelf, though. Hundreds of programs for $30(price it too cheaply and people will think it isn't worth anything more than that. MS Office costs more so it must be better...).
Kids are listening to their parent's music because today's music sucks. That's why cd sales are down. Dumb fuckers. I listen to Pink Floyd and Eric Clapton and Bob Seger and Led Zeppelin and Queen because they are good. I don't listen to much music made in the last fifteen years because I just don't like most of it.
Exactly. Forest fires are a natural part of forest life. It is only when humans do everything they possibly can to prevent forest fires that all this underbrush develops and makes for a massive fire when the time comes. Stop fucking with nature and it will stop fucking with you.
Oh okay, it's just a tradition. I understand now. There is no symbolism. The tradition just started because someone liked evergreen trees. Okay. Makes perfect sense. Dumbass. Why they hell do you think the tradition got started? Evergreen trees symbolize eternal life because they don't lose their leaves in the winter like most other trees do. And what the hell are you talking about other religions? I'm pretty sure that CHRISTianity is the only religion that uses CHRISTmas trees.
You are all over the board, dude. I am an atheist, too, and I'm not religious. I grew up with a plastic christmas tree. Do you not understand the concept of a symbol? Without the symbolic meaning behind the tradition, the tradition is meaningless. I am not saying that I necessarily believe in any of this; I am just stating the historical and symbolic meanings behind christmas trees. And what the hell is the symbol of christmas? If you are talking about christmas trees, then the reason why trees are even used in christmas traditions is because they represent eternal life. It all goes back to that.
Oh yes, and this is a definate problem since most of the heat is transferred through the case material. Heat loss due to conduction through the case material is nearly insignificant compared to the heat loss due to air circulation by fans. That's why we have fans in computers - to draw in cool air and force hot air out.
The very old tradition is to decorate trees outside, not to cut them down and bring them inside. It isn't a matter of liking the trees. You have to look at the symbolism and understand why christians stole the tradition of decorating a tree. Evergreens symbolize eternal life, so christians liken that to christ's eternal life(or some bullshit like that). However, they are really killing the tree that symbolizes eternal life. In a way, they are killing christ. Stupid christians.
Well I may have been a bit unclear. I wasn't talking about christmas trees in relation to the environment, I was talking about them in relation to what they symbolize. Evergreen trees symbolize eternal life(since they keep their leaves all year), yet people kill them. They kill a tree that symbolizes eternal life just so they can put it in their living room. It isn't eternal now! It completely nullifies the symbol. Now, instead of having an eternal tree, you have a tree you have to throw away in a few weeks. I understand the concept of christmas tree farms; there is one a couple miles out of town and I drive by it quite often. However, I do not understand the concept of killing a symbol of eternal life.
I was about to post the same thing. Wouldn't nature lovers rather have the trees out in nature instead of dead on their computers? It is similar to those moronic christians who cut down evergreen trees because they symbolize eternal life. Do they realize what they are doing? I have never understood that concept.
Yes, all magnetic mediums degrade, but data storage mediums are much higher quality than consumer analog video mediums. Since when do VCRs use error correction? How would they even be able to tell if there was an error?
Well there is nothing wrong with analog video, but analog storage(especially consumer-level) doesn't have to be as precise and reliable as digital storage. Your VHS tape can degrade a bit, but it will generally still be watchable. If you stored data on it and the tape degraded, you lose bits that you cannot get back. The backer device uses all kinds of error correction to store the data on the VHS tapes, and that is why you can only get so little data on a tape.
Hey I bought a backer32 at a garage sale for $1 last summer. I haven't tried it out yet. It is supposed to hold something like 2 gigs on a vhs tape and it interfaces through the parallel port. I don't think I'll trust my data to a medium designed to store analog video.
Are you really that naive? Uninstall IE using your method. Then go to a windows explorer window and type in an http address. Bam. Internet explorer. All you did was remove links to it. That has been stated several times in this discussion.
Bah! You aren't doing mission possible? That's the best damn one there is. I did that for three years. It was the only event I actually prepared for, but I always got pulled into physics lab and experimental design and shit about a week before competition. The web searching one was fucking easy. I did it I think the first year they had it, and my partner and I pretty much copied and pasted shit and we won. Next year we did it expecting it to be the same, and it was some god damn biology thing that we actually had to think about! Anyway, science olympiad is really fun. Too bad I'm going to college now about a million miles from fucking anywhere(kirksville, mo) and I don't think there are any competitions around here.
There is a fucking pet bakery in KC on the plaza. My girlfriend dragged me down to the plaza one day and if that wasn't bad enough, she dragged me to the fucking doggy bakery. Holy shit. Needless to say, she bought some damn cookies or some shit for her dog. That shit looked pretty good, too! She wouldn't let me buy any though. She said they were for dogs only and I couldn't have any. God damn dogs eating better than I am.

I think you should read more than just the first paragraph he wrote.

Ir- and -less both mean "without", so why do you put them both on the same word? I think you mean regardless, which means without regard.
