Grab yourself one of the Maxpedition Jumbo Versipacks, perfect every day carry gadget bag.
Dress it up with morale patches too or just run down to your local headshop and buy up all the patches you can find affix velcro and you're in business:p
Geek it up Tactical style!
And yes in states that allow CCW, its a no brainer. This is the bag you want.
I guess that settles it. I'll consign myself to buying up whatever dead tree editions I can; and completely forget about buying any eReader or eBooks if these "Authors Guild" idiots are going to be a rabid crowd of money mongers. Unionized writers and publishing houses, like these belong on a do not buy list. And so the world grows smaller once again. Thanks to Greed.
This practice actually raises my hackles. Alarm bells and klaxxons go off. Really they have NO BUSINESS doing this dystopian crap. This is exactly the very sort of thing that makes people angry. I for one wouldn't pay those mofo's one bluidy red cent. My wifi my business not theirs. Its not a crime. And they can't make it one just because. SCREW YOU, you damn'd IOC & your lame limpicks. DIAF and all that!
Pay no mind to Apple shills. iPad is just another greedy shit. Consumers want what consumers want. And for the most part we want to pick and choose the things we need for our little fiefdoms at reasonable price points. We do not want this so called vendor lockin crap. Nor do we want to be babied by control freak app stores.
XBMC + Fusion That oughta save you a wee bit more and give you far more options than you really need. You might also want to find a nice VPN service in the appropriate places. Then OTA if you need local news stations and lighter fare, and are in an area that gives you the capablity to recieve OTA transmissions. All of these things can be piped thru your pc to your big screen HDTV, you might even be able to build youself a sweet little HTPC setup with a few extra screens for IRC and other multi tasking things as well.:) Don't limit yourself.
...NOTE: Read a book... wonderful advice... absolutely... if you stick to dead trees... but its kinda moving the other way now. I'm allready in the unfortunate place where I have to decide if I want an eReader or grab a gee-whiz-tablet with some oompth. Then it'll be the content provider issue all over again.
And this is one of the reasons I fear eBooks moving to eFormats Only. One day there will be no libraries. A single EMP could take out the entire collected knowledge of a certain time period in one go. (theoretically). Archaeologists of the future will wonder where all the 'amazing knowledge of the ancients vanished to.'
sumbum gona bitch to youtoob dat u copied dem, den sumbum else guna tryna shake ur tree for moar monies dey dun care if you done it yourself for realz dey guna make a play for your moneiez. Dey all lie say belong to dem n tryna sue U and U can't win no moar. It all fight fight fight last dood standing git all ur moneiz. U think riaa care bout you?
You might just want to consider building your next IT center in a shipping container that can be detached and loaded on to a semi. Done properly your UPS and AC systems would keep them alive until you could get to an alternate location with power and network which you should already have contracted for in advance.
I agree. ISP's should just be network neutral dumb pipes responsible for transport only and no more than that. They're not the worlds internet police and shouldn't have to be made to.
@clonehappy, so you're a curmudgeon & you have no life. Big whoop. Meanwhiles the rest of the herpy derpy world continues to evolve our online language and textual lingoisms while you remain in the dismal ostritch hole you've placed your noggin into. Sucks to be you. --- and back to our discussion of the day --- : Six Strikes Copyright Enforcement is Bad M'kay --- Big Content needs to --- Grow Up & Get with the future or forever hold your silence. The interwebs belongs to the people not the corporate oligopoly capice.
I believe in questioning authority up until a certain point, and that point is reached when I am the authority. I say fine them for every incident 25K is a big fat nothing if it stands alone up against a corporate infrastructure with billions in the bank. I also disagree with the "_nomap" angle we shouldn't have to be forced to append _nomap to our SSID's. Instead Google should make it opt in... those who wish to be mapped can append _MapMe to their SSID if they so choose, it would only be fair.
Yessir thats the way to go! XBMC for the win! At least as long as you have unlimited cable or a very high cap heh. Especially since Boxee Box no longer supports pc's.:( Then theres PLEX and a few other variants out there, I'd stick to XBMC if I were you; plenty of plugin's and aggreators and repositories out there for XBMC you'll never be sorry.
Moar Fun LOLCODE!

*nice slashdot eats code tags which translates into a string of messy code, without formatting code looks fugly: bad bad BAD, Plus is yells for caps, moar bads!:p
Meh- anyhoo funner langs can be enjoyable too.
Thats right Captive Portal operators routinely inject advertisements either for their own operations or to suplement the donation button's found on the captive portal login at coffee shops, hotels and so on. Its a fairly common way to monetize what to a consumer might just be a temporary waystation to access the internet for free an hour or so. Often once some kind of payment has been tendered those 'ads' can be made to go away by the captive portal operator if they so choose. Sometimes CPO's even drop people into a walled garden featuring local businesses so you can freely web-shop the neighborhood once your free 2 hours is up. So you either pay or wait 24 hours when the captive portal resets. Usually a captive portal is a combination of server-router-software solutions and they don't exactly come cheaply irregardless what you might've been led to believe. Its an interesting side business if you have the time and witherwhal.
These days all you really need is a powerful laptop & a smart HDTV connected to it and an unlimited or very high cap cable/dsl service then you get access to TONNES of Online Content World Wide The people have spoken. Convergence is IN! And Depending on where you live you can agument with OTA antenna to your HDTV.

I like the Jumbo Versipack

+1 Absolutely! We go full out! Enough of this in your face advertising! It doesn't need to be every conveivable place in existence!
Corporatist are not entitled to stalk people...get over it advertisers. Choke on your greed and DIAF.

Btw how is this thread any different from This one that I saw last night and responded to? and yet this one has 100+ replies? Something stinks.

Oh great, so I just gotta live what 300 years until such wide spread cheap data plans et al are available?

i.e.: kickbacks OR a tombstone?
