If they sent it as a PDF, then he'd have never known that they originally made it in excel.
I also work at a printer. Crappy sent in files are a real problem, even though we wouldn't touch a Word or Excel doc with a 10 foot pole, our artists don't even have MS office installed.
Any fiscal action takes months to affect the economy, and even more months to gather the data necessary to gauge impact. Any quick action is foolish, you'll just end up overcompensating due to the latency in your data.
The economy was already getting weak when Bush took office.
I sure as hell don't support the republicans (or the democrats for that matter), but implying that the president has anything but a minor role in the immediate economy (especially during thier first term in office) is silly.
That's bullshit. PDF is an open standard. It's owned by Adobe, but it's released under a license that allows any implementation to read or write the format freely.
Did you think ghostscript and xpdf were illegal or just waiting to be sued?
I think it's obvious (to most people) when someone says something like "meat is murder", they are expressing an opinion, not a literal fact. You remind me of Data on Star Trek.
Yes, I agree with you on the whole in this thread.
As I posted higher up, it's a tautology the other poster is pushing.
Anything that's legal isn't murder, anything that isn't murder can't be made illegal as murder.
This is obviously a non-argument. That he's now reverting to personal attacks just confirms he's only trying to sound like someone making reasonable arguments, but in reality is just trying to stir shit up (i.e. troll).
They'll just update the calendar to adjust. As it is, they add leap seconds every now and then. As long as they keep adding leap seconds, they'll keep it in sync.
to whether killing a fetus through abuse of a pregnant woman counts as murder
You fail to mention the people pushing these laws are the same ones who want to ban abortion in large part. It's just them "rallying the dominoes" (to borrow from a christian band).
Be careful with the argument, it's sorta a tautology.
While it is an emotional appear to call something that is not unlawful murder, the usual point of the person calling something murder is an argument for making it illegal.
Put another way, you are basically arguing that the definition of murder can never be expanded.
If it isn't illegal, it can't be murder. If it isn't murder, it can't be made illegal under murder laws. This is the tautology.
And be careful, I've read that some establishments advertise a certain return, like say 99.5%, but only have a couple machines all the way in the corner with that return, the rest being a more common 80% or so shitty return.
I guess the moral of the story is, if there's doubt, ask the manager or someone who knows.
MS seems to be the one with the unhealthy obsession about Linux and Free Software. It's like the old wives tale of an elephant being afraid of a mouse (though this mouse does have fangs).
That's because MS wants to try to get the nice consistant formatting and structuring of a LyX/LaTeX style document, with the freedom of a regular WYSIWYG word processor.
Still, that's BS. In 1997 when I graduated High School, they were still teaching Wordperfect for DOS, and were only beginning to switch over to Office.
A few things to get from that. 1. Entrenchment of a word processor is by no means permanant. 2. It does take a long time to switch away from an entrenched word processor. 3. People don't need GUI hand-holding to get proficient at a word processor, it just slows them down in the long run.
I know they're using carbon aerogels to make really large capacitance caps in the 1-100Farad range. Does this new nanofoam have similar potential for making new capacitors with higher surface area/mass ratios?

Actually, if you keep going, you'll wind up with the best person in your company left at the end.
After all, 50% of the employees are below average at any given company. Might as well cut out the deadwood.
I thought that went without saying.
Don't you worry about fire hazard? I've had several motherboards smoke their voltage regulator sections.
Heh, they're already beta testing that, it's called the "Xbox" project.

Card counting is not allowed, but it's not illegal, you'll never ever get arrested for counting cards. That's the whole point of this thread.

Uncensored news that has to be approved by government censors? Say what?
At what point do you draw a lawsuit from MS though (or at least threatning letters)?

Gambling brings a certain class of people into a town.
This is an interesting argument, because if gambling were legal everywhere, this argument would be completely moot.

The two are pretty much mutually exclusive.

No, because changing your clock doesn't make the earth orbit the sun any faster, it'll still take about 365.25 days.
They already have. Their proprietary music format uses DRM.
