"In the vernacular it has come to mean search in much the same way xerox has come to mean copy documents"
Not really when I tell you to xerox this I generally don't care what you use to do it, just make me a copy.
When I tell you to google for something... that means goto google and search for it, not yahoo or all the web, or ANY other search engine, GOOGLE and google only
Of course could the devil sue for me telling you to go to hell? its a common verb, but it also pertains to a specific place. Don't take that the wrong way, I just thought of it as I was finishing my ramblings.
My Friend recently bought something online for his motorcycle from a place in Spain, the bill came to something like $70, not to much I personally think.
within 10 minutes of him hitting the submit button he got a call from someone at his CC company asking him to verify the sale. We both thought that it was very cool for them to be monitoring apparently all the sales, even the small ones.
I can remember wether I have seen the story for at least a week.
I do remember when there was a story posted and BARELY 6-8 hours later it was reposted...
What we do need is for the editors to at least check the front page, and the yesterdays edition before they even post. A script will only allow them to get EVEN LAZIER than they are already.
Everyone wanted to "Strike it rich" and didn't care if what they were striking it rich on was really worthwile. I mean come on dog food delivery?!
While I think that snood would probably be cool to play on a cell phone. Don't do it because you wanna get rich doing it, just do it cause its a thing that you think we need,
I think the quote is do what you love the money will come.
I'm in the process of purchasing a 50" plasma (I work for a manufacturer) and its going on my desk, at the foot of my bed, so I can watch tv too (TLC, Discovery, FoodTV, Travel Channel, and Sci-fi until I finally realize how crappy it has become) network TV blows but that is a whole 'nuther rant.
currently there is a 21" monitor sitting on my rack mountable KVM with 2 desktops next to it. a laptop off to my right, and a minidisc recorder under a Epson printer, and a bunch of misc stuff (cd-r's, GPS, Nostromo Speed pad altoids, pitcher for water... you get the idea)
on the floor off to the right there is my tower server, and 2 more standard servers. ive got a laser printer next to them blocking the heater so no one can turn it on. and a pile of books and crap within throwing distance of my right hand...
since I have been thinking of gettin the plasma, ive been seriously looking at my desk and how DISGUSTING it is (not filthy just MESSY), maybe its becoming a trend.. but I to am appaled by the sheer amount of CRAP that I have amassed... looks like a trip to ebay is in my future... I gotta offload some laptops to help off set the cost of the plasma!!!

Do these retailers take Ralphs(California Grocery Chain) Gift certificates.
I work for Pioneer, and when I saw this I was like, WE DONT EVEN HAVE IT!? HOW DID THEY REVIEW IT!
But I Found out that its due in here next week, I guess we (Japan Corp) sent it out to some manufacturers first, and they somehow got ahold of one.
As far as pricing goes, I have been told that dealer pricing is supposed to be the same as the A04, so whether or not the dealers will mark it up more or not is up to them, take it as you will. Im gonna get mine next week.
BTW 4x Burning Doesnt even matter when you don't have 4x media,
Now i really can look like a borg, i'll just watercool whatever graphics chip they have, and then when i use my phone to play quake and i get a call and put it to my head it will appear as tho i have coolant running through my head!!!!
Seriously, i thought my phone got hot when i talked on it! now its gonna do 3d?
I'm gonna do a screen Cap and save that header on my website, I NEVER thought I'd see the day when/. would AGREE that microsoft did something, ANYTHING right!!!
Slashdot Mirror
I signed up, went in, looked, and found no place to add a book.
Personally I would assume that if you signed up there would be a section to submit...
but thats just me...
there were pins on the slot1's?
"could be threatened by the impending war"
As opposed to the wars that they have been fighting on and off for decades?
It keeps reminding me that I STILL have to do my taxes, why can't I read slashdot when I get home and can remember it there.
I guess I just have to much to do at home and not enough to do at work, or is it that my priorities are out of whack?

First page news is the ONLY page /. has...
as things get older they become second page news.
So in reply to your comment on why this is so tremenduously important as to make the first page. You're a DUMBASS
how could it be 2nd page? without being 1st page... well, 1st?
