I'm replying to my own post, but I wanted to state that I know the bank / credit union actually gets your car because the dealer has already been paid. But we haven't. We could make our money back on it quicker ourselves, than to let a bank recoup the loss for us years down the line....
Fuck that, my company put a good bit of that fucking fiber in the ground & we haven't been paid yet, if you don't pay for a car it gets taken back right? Well why can't the same apply for Telco's? You didn't really think they did that work themselves, did you?
We would have no problem then selling or leasing the fiber to recoup our costs.
BTW Qwest is/was one of our customers too, as well as Adelphia. Care to guess why I might be unemployed in the forseeable future?

The people who actually care about about art for art's sake won't stop creating. That will eliminate the flood of crap we've gotten for the past few decades or so.
btw... Game companies have really slowed down making those games since p2p appeared, haven't they?
And to tell you the truth I don't think copyright infringment is right, I just didn't think you had a very good argument.

Most porn sites put the content on P2P for advertisement, a few are DivX'd from VHS movies & DVD's though.
Umm, not that I know that first hand or anything;)
Tool did "Undertow", not Korn. Also the Crystal Method has a few minutes of silence at the end of the albulm "Tweekend", it leads into a version of "Name of the Game" with the lyrics removed.
It does when they put about 4Gb of them in their home directories, you know the ones that get backed up at night and are generally less than 200Mb. And don't say to get more backup capacity, it was the extra length of time required as opposed to storage space that was the problem.
Then what is your problem? I've an Athlon 700Mhz (not even a T-Bird) with 768Mb RAM & a GeForce4 MX420. Every 2nd generation console I've emulated has looked much better on my computer than it ever did on the console.
I don't know where you live but they *DO* enforce seatbelt laws in Florida. If they see you driving by without a seatbelt on, even if you are doing the speed limit, or whatever, they will pull you over & issue you a citation.
Of course this doesn't bother me, becasue I'm uncomfortable if I don't have a seatbelt on while I'm driving.

Heh, mine are used mainly for decoration & deterrence.

I don't know, it's a great place to get (legal) Unreal Tournament Mods & Maps with out having to wade thru a bunch of Websites.
That's at least one legal use.
Jaysyn
I wish that actually worked in the real world, too bad that for the most part chicks want "bad boys" & guys that will treat them like crap.
Jaysyn
p.s. I totally agree on the WCOM stuff in your Journal.
Tool did "Undertow", not Korn. Also the Crystal Method has a few minutes of silence at the end of the albulm "Tweekend", it leads into a version of "Name of the Game" with the lyrics removed.
Jaysyn
Listen, you've really confused the sh*t out of me, you aren't even the guy I was replying to in the first place.
But since we both agree, lets not argue.

I'm sure you ment Xenophobia though.

Heh, give your email so I can send you mem dumps of some of my nicer bluescreens (yes XP gets them too they're called stop errors.)

LOL, I know quite a few people who bought a PS2 just for Tekken Tag Team.
Jaysyn
LOL, I don't even know 5 people with an X-Box....
I do know around 25 with a PS2 & a couple with the GC.

Too bad they outsourced the OS to Apple. Now you know why M$ really proped Apple up a few years ago...
