I don't think you actually read the proposal. "basic necessities will be reimbursed". "Poor people" will take home 100% of their paycheck and get to decide when they pay taxes. Consume items that aren't basic necessities? Pay taxes. Don't buy them, don't pay taxes. Same applies to "rich" people. Each has an equal ability to save money by not buying stuff. Of course, people who make less can't save as much as someone making more, but at least the playing field is equal and not fraught with loopholes....
If someone would come out with two-way satellite software for linux, I'd get it! No more busy signal complaints from the SO's family! (doesn't bother me, becuase no one calls me anyway:)
Microsoft was to make the patch "readily accessible". It is their fault for making is so large that it would take over 5 hours on the only net connection I have.
Ok, get the CD then, you say. Well, why should I have to pay for something that was (semi) court mandated......to cover their costs of breaking the law? I don't think so......
Why couldn't that guy look at the camera when he was talking?
I'm quite dissappointed in National Geographic for allowing the whole, "let's keep'em guessing for a whole two hours" and all they find is another frickin' piece of rock. yippee!
Try running a p2p program on a dialup connection (22.6K, thank you very much). It quite handily eats up most of my connection, leaving very little left for anything else. Nevermind when you are downloading something.
I used to ride my bike to school in an urban area. I've since graduated, but at the time, I would've bet large sums of money that a woman driving an SUV talking on the cellphone would cause the end of me.
It's legal in Minnesota as long as you are one of the parties talking.
Sure would have come in handy when someone changes their story on the phone......either record it or get it in writing. Sorry, bad experience, thanks for listening:)
I moved past LEGOs at this point. The older kits used to be built out of the basic building blocks. I remember having a fire and police station. Think I only built the "set" once or twice, but could never find all of the pieces again to completely build them once they got integrated into "the box"!

I don't shop at walmart either because of all the other people that do. Parking lots are like a warzone and the checkout lines aren't much better.
Uh, don't you mean Switzerland? :)
I thought I heard somewhere that any new tax was permanant, while any tax "cut" expired after 10 years.....Pretty obvious what the goals are.
Even foreign leaders that are known to kill _their own people_ by gassing them?
Foreign leaders that were unanimously told to disarm by the entire world, and didn't?
I think it's hardly because "you really don't like" him.
Obiligatory MS slam.

It runs on windows......wonder how many people will have to die before they patch it!?
Yep, annoys me.
Instead of recognizing that one has been living above their means and changing, lets blame it on when we were born!
Get some responsibility.......or maybe we should blame the parents for raising them poorly?! yeah that's it!
Amen!

they can withstand 3.6 million violations at 11K/day before their cash reserves run out.
Boy, sure sounds like Microsoft got screwed on the penalty part of the agreement.

Amen, this will be posted outside of my cubicle and required reading for anyone looking for help!!
I've seen a few posts saying that it has 64 processor cores......but, it doesn't. It has 2 processor cores per chip, totalling 32 per machine.
ps. I also work for IBM. It's always refreshing to hear outside opinions of products I've been working on for a long time!!
