  1. I never take mine down on Employers Trolling for Current Employee Resumes? · · Score: 1

    I don't allow mine to be visible unless I have contacted an employer through that site. I usually make first contact. Unless I am already unemployed.

  2. Re:Hurray for Movie Technology! on ILM's Datacenter · · Score: 1

    definitely a typo.

  3. Re:Impressive films? on ILM's Datacenter · · Score: 2

    Yes they have, are you an idiot? Do you think that Star Wars movies are the only movies ILM puts out?

    hello?!?!?!?!?

    "Raiders of the Lost Ark"? is a GREAT movie.

    Go down to Visual Effects, notice the big ILM after each of their names.....

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with "The Mask". It's a great film. One of the few Jim Carey films I can bare to watch.

  5. Re:Anything is possible when you turn off the TV on 17 Year Old Creates Flickr Competitor · · Score: 1

    Uh, when I was 14 I worked at McDonalds, D'Angelo's a Local chicken restaurant. Those aren't agricultural jobs either. At 14 you just can't work past 6pm and can't put in more than I think it's 15hrs a week (at least in the state of MA, 17 years ago.)

  6. Personal life? on Training - A Company or a Worker's Responsibility? · · Score: 1

    personal lives are for amatures. ;-)

  7. Re:MOD PARENT UP on iPod Owners Not Thieves · · Score: 1

    Sure they don't have RCA jacks on them, they do have a dedicated line out. it's part of the dock. I plug my iPod into the doc, that is not connected to my computer. plug the line out on the dock to CSW radio on my desk's line in, and sound comes out. And yes it is line out because changing the volume on the iPod does squat.

    There is also a cable that plugs into the bottom of the iPod to produce lineout.

  8. Re:20% switching? No way. on Forbes Predicts 5% Desktop Share for Apple in 2005 · · Score: 2, Informative

    There are plenty of games, as I switched to a Mac, and have no problem getting the games I want, they may be a couple months behind the windows version but big-woop-dee-butt-$$%&%$ (tm) I can wait a couple months, if it means no windows email worms corrupting my system.

  9. Re:a little twist. on FL Court Rules Against Spouse-Installed Spyware · · Score: 1

    Yeah, seeing how the law is read, I agree as to why it was illegal, but you would think that their would have been a provision in the law allowing some one who owns the computer to monitor how it is utilized. Seems kind of stupid to me.

  10. a little twist. on FL Court Rules Against Spouse-Installed Spyware · · Score: 3, Interesting

    IANL but... The judges ruled that she didn't have the right to install the software on his computer, but I am pretty sure that once you are married what's his is hers and what's hers is his. Doesn't that also make his computer her computer and wouldn't that also give her the right to install said software on her computer?

  11. that's not a lot of money on Biggest Identity Thief Ever Gets Put Away · · Score: 1

    and the total stolen over just a couple of years was somewhere in the $50m-100m range."

    I don't see where $0.05 to $0.10 is a lot of money. (^_~)

  12. i see no problems on On the Ethics of a Code Split? · · Score: 1

    I see no problem with it. If it's GPLed you have the freedom to do what you want with it, as long as you follow the GPL.

    not to mention extracting the mpegs off of a Replay is a HELL-OF-A-LOT(tm) easier...

  14. Re:Great news. on DMCA Limited by Sixth Circuit Appeals Court · · Score: 2, Funny

    a friend of mine does this 3-4 times a year. Buys a printer, 3 months down the road finishes the ink or it dries out. He then goes out and buys the next model up because it's now cheapter than buying 2 cartridges. It's crazy...

  16. Re:I hope the ban stays in place. on Cellphones Usable on Airplanes in 2006? · · Score: 1

    I actually don't mind people trying to talk to me as I have met some rather nice people that way, but people tend to talk more loudly when they are on the phone, and if they are sitting right next to you, and that is quite obnoxious.

  17. I hope the ban stays in place. on Cellphones Usable on Airplanes in 2006? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I would rather cellphones stay banned as I really don't want to spend 6hrs on a plane with some ass who's talking the entire time.

  18. Re:your tax dollars at work... on 'Pirate Act' Would Shift Copyright Civil Suits To DoJ · · Score: 1

    Resalable condition of course meaning with the wrapper still on, as store will not take back music CD without a wrapper unless it's damaged, and even then you get a new copy of the same disc, and your receipt is mark as return so you can't return that unopened.

  19. In US dollars... on Reasonable Salary for Entry Level Programmers? · · Score: 1

    I would think $45000 to $50000 depending on the type of work you are going to be doing is reasonable.

  20. Yeah like this is going to fly on New Disney / Samsung HDD Video Set-Top Box · · Score: 2, Informative

    Anyone remember the Divx DVD wannabe? Doesn't Disney ever learn. I personally would not pay $x a month for a box, and then an additional $y to rent a movie for 24 hours. that's just stupid.

    or just maybe he did what most people do all the time. Mistype. I'm sure seeing that today is the 13th of august they just accidentally got the typing order wrong. Stop being such asses.

  22. Cost?? on The Effect of Pirated CDs · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Well maybe if the CD didn't cost $18+ I might be willing to actually buy it, but when music that was release 15 years ago is selling for 17.99 on a disc I could have bought back then for $14.99. Most music to me isn't worth $18+ I have no problem at $12 to pick up a disc. Even if it's for 2 songs, but that additional $6 makes a huge difference in my decision making.

    What were they doing on a "tall" coaster anyway?

    Getting over their fear of heights????

    the chemical compound only worked in certain areas of the world due to climate It thrived in hot climates but not cold climates(or was it the other way around). Also in theory the lizards could have come up with a vaccine within the 20 or so years since the creation of that compound.
