yea and where the hell are you going to go, comcast has caps, cellphones have caps (if you read your contract) so where is this great exodus going to take us, 20 years back passing messages over fidonet on a 2400baud?
billions is this PR stunt costing us, and what is its invaluable scientific discovery to mankind... second though I guess I shouldnt bitch, we did get a pathetic 138 mil for energy research, not like we need energy or anything
doesn't matter how mediocre they are, why get 1 mediocre scientist in America thats going to bitch and whine about pay, when you can get 5 mediocre scientist in India who will suck your ass for cheaper all together
little late to the bus there chief, as most of us discovered computers are easy to hook into tv's and theres tv on the internet, quite a while ago, but whatever...
I use an XBOX 1, linux and a little murga lua front end I whipped up (see how long? a 8 year old game machine with enough time to fiddle fart the perfect for me UI,... sorry) works fine for SD tv
XBMC worked much better, but its not actively updated on the XBOX and the plug-ins slowly die.
Thats the ONLY reason my part of the shop is not nix now, 1 application that is critical I have. Its suppose to run in wine but the installer fails every time I try, AND if that was not enough the stupid thing wont run on 7 without XP mode.
yea its a horrible decision made by someone before I started influenced by a shit sales pitch, but it works perfect for their needs and is not that old, I am not going to be the one to walk into the bosses office and tell him his fairly recent investment on a system that works needs to be scrapped so we can update to 7 cause Mircosoft out of all people told us we need to.
Good news is, that same system is totally FUBAR for what I need it for and contains nothing but gibberish and crap for data, and I have been granted permision to rebuild as I see fit, so maybe in a few years after its proven and effective they might think about moving
not to be Douchie McNitpick, but diesel engines do not use spark plugs (though they can require glow plugs when its dead cold and is being fussy starting up)
in all fairness, in this application (however silly at this point in time) is not quite the same as drilling a hole into a solid object X00 yards away, though much like firearms, its hard to replace a simple but very effective design, with a multi laser burn rig, that also takes more energy
Slashdot Mirror
not if you consider it happens every single year at this time
ha, our sirens haven't even worked in 20 years and you want the gubberment to shoot expensive missiles into a cloud

its perfectly suitable for streaming, you want on demand hd buy that service, you want to watch the office 3 days later on hulu, well its still there
oh thank you, I have never thought of that before, lets see here in my area there is
#1) ATT
#2) Comcast
well fuck me, that showed them
Its difficult to find someone barley young enough to fly into space AND be able to bit bang a i386sx like a champ
not really, it was featured yesterday on hackaday.com, and probably 2 dozen other sites

no there are at least a dozen post's above yours saying the exact same thing
if I didn't use my last mod points on one of those threads you would get a redundant
no one is talking about TOP men, were talking about mediocre ones
and I am not a scientist
what about my 1983 apple // disks?
name 1 console (not handheld) that Nintendo has produced that has been backwards compatible
doesn't matter how mediocre they are, why get 1 mediocre scientist in America thats going to bitch and whine about pay, when you can get 5 mediocre scientist in India who will suck your ass for cheaper all together
oblig "it works fine for me"
NASA first
yea but the problem is those sources often have nothing to do with the original intent
Deficits will never go away, and neither will the fact that the sun will eventually incinerate the earth.
and when that happens a lot of fat fucking good it will do to be on the moon or mars
+ 1 stupid
sigh, yes cause apple was soooo unique putting web 2.0 icons on a screen
power or common really doesn't matter, as a common user of a craptop that has to be plugged to the wall anyway, I wouldn't notice.

my company has around 60 or so XP boxes, and I can tell you now they care much more about money than updates to windows
all I can say about that mentality is its very common place and be prepared for spam like you have never seen it before
