The only coasters I ever made were because of defective cheapass BASF cd-r's... They were total crap. Most of the ones that burned fine and worked after burning now no longer work (some chemical process? who knows?) Never had a coaster with the other brands I use, Sony, Maxell, Memorex and Fuji
I remember reading somewhere about how elderly Eskimos will leave the family igloo and wander out into the snow never to be seen again so as not to become a burden on the family when they are no longer productive. Solution to the huge crop of baby boomers about to hit retirement age? I think so!
I like pico... I always make a point of installing it on any new boxen (well, actually nano, but they're the same.) It works great for what I need it for (editing config files) I can't be bothered to learn a whole bunch of new commands for one of the other bloated, ugly linux editors people keep preaching
When I was a young geek (1st computer at 6, commodore pet) it was my dream to work at PARC and do research. I was going to go get a PHD in computer engineering or something and research cool things. Oh well, guess it's a good thing I dropped out of college to be a coder

How about this word: Yaizo. Know that feeling you get when you buy a cool new toy and can't wait to get it home and play with it? That's yaizo. "I have a harsh yaizo to use my new joystick"
The "music revolution" has already taken off, and it's out of the hands of the record industry. MP3 is a genie that can never be pushed back in its bottle. The record companies' revenue stream doesn't matter one bit to any music fan, they just want music and free is a damn good price.
I'm actually surprised that they're not attacking MP3's more (not that they have a leg to stand on, but that never stopped them before) I expect to see lawsuits against shoutcast.com pretty soon though (for enabling the unauthorized rebroadcast of 'pirate' MP3s)
Besides, we all have way too many MP3's by now to switch to any new format but MP4 (someone should hurry up with that too!)
Me too! Well, second best... I prefer Ultraedit for windows because it has load from/save to ftp, which means I can edit php/pl/html/whatever remotely without the annoying ftp step. I saw a mention of the possibility of it being incorporated into future versions, PLEASE DO!
Then some lawyer will file a class action suit on behalf of all the kids who want to be in porn, but are being discriminated against because of their age.
You should look around and price some used/surplus lcd projectors, get a few video cards and you're set! Of course, you need a dim room and screens on your walls. Damn, that would be sweet!

$60/mo for 144kbit? You got SHAFTED! Up here in Van BC I get 2.5Mbit for cdn$65, rock solid service, no primetime slowdown... it's wonderful
*FART* Hey look, I made some art! Quick, someone buy it before it's gone!

Buy it used! Then they don't make any money off you.
Good! We don't need all these damn welfare dialup users with their little modems slowing down the net for the rest of us anyhow.

Every new law is one less freedom
Don't worry about it, we feel exactly the same way about the US
Uh oh! Better not run those DLL's on 2 systems at once! That could violate someone's EULA! Then the software gestapo will be breaking your door down.

Don't get into an argument with them though, their logic doesn't work the same as ours does.
And I thought blue ones were expensive...

Use it, love it.
Doesn't mean it's not a stupid word.
Oh really? I thought they were using blind people because they have more acute hearing...

Well, Intel's always been pretty good at recalling buggy processors too
vi and emacs are the first things i nuke after i install... then i throw on pico or nano.

"Yes. This is because Americans are not easily duped."
hahaha... You're joking, right? Quick, someone mod the parent up as funny!
If the US gov't spends so much on intelligence, how come they're all so damn stupid?

>Gads you are a dolt. Not everyone in Canada is French-Canadian, i.e. in Quebec.
Sure, as far as we're concerned out here in BC, Canada doesn't even include quebec.
