Stop treating IT like a cost center, and treat them as a money maker. Salesmen make a commission. Managers make a commission. The IT guy working his ass off nights and weekends makes nothing for his early grave.
You want to motivate them? Give them part of the cut that motivates you.
You cannot know anything unless you pay for it first- and without a money back guarantee. You cannot listen to music, see theater, or learn unless you pay- and without a money back guarantee. If I buy a lemon, and it's core is rotten and infested- I can return it. If I buy a music CD and the music is complete crap complete with DRM so that I can't actually play it- not only do I not get my money back but I don't even own the said piece of crap. It's a rental.
Is this how humanity evolved? Is this how we will be able to retain knowledge in the future? What the fuck are libraries but mass piracy collectives?
Here is the truth of it, and it will piss off pretty much everyone in this non-manufacturing based economy.
You either know something or you do not. It is either secret or it is not. And in the end, all things are known.
You cannot own knowledge. It was never yours to begin with. The language I am speaking now was giving to me by thousands of years of other English speakers. It is not mine to own. The word "fkucherry" that I just made up does not belong to me. It is a contruct of what I've learned from others. It is knowledge.
When this understanding is realized, say after a catastrophic event, then Linux will no longer need the GPL along with all other proprietary software/entertainment data. And the data that will be able to survive at that point will be open data, as Linux is today. It will save our asses- mark my words. Windows and all those shit programs that those people copied won't be worth a drop of piss. Nobody will be able to modify it. It will be useless.
And so here is what I think of arresting very smart people in high end technical positions. Maybe they know something that you don't? Maybe they aren't paid by people that get their money from PAC funded politicians. Maybe they are archiving data educating more people than your broken government ever could. Maybe we should all think about what this means.
I have to tell you that the moment Intellect and Knowledge became legal property is the moment that you have no "lawful" rights to your own thoughts. That does not serve anyone and never has.
What I did was save up 6 months of salary and then quit. I had the same problem. I prepared ahead fo time with a resume and perspective employers. Now I'm good to go. It's a risky move, but if you have the credentials to swing it, then that may be one option.
I guess now you'll get a conservative with a digital recorder in your class to balance it out. Since you don't get paid to teach Bush bashing you shouldn't any issues. I think this group is just documenting professors in the USA who get paid for teaching and grading fairly when they in fact do not. Understanding means that you understand aka both sides are known. So that's the point these folks are trying to make I think. Which doesn't affect you nevertheless.
In all vessels, whether they be fishing boats or airplanes or space craft, they must follow maritime law. Which means this. The captain is God and you are nothing. His word is law. Heirarchy and order are paramount.
If you are in space or international waters or any unclaimed region, the captain should adhere to the laws thereof- but whether he does or not doesn't matter to you because you have no say and no authority. Consider each vessel a floating country unto itself, to get an idea of what it's about. Because in the end, it is. There is nothing between you and death but yourself and your captain. That is why you are physically and legally sovereign. That is why they have programming Indian slave ships off the coast of California. Because they cannot be touched.
When I buy a domain name it is mine. If I choose not to tell people about where I live and what my work number is, then it is damn well my right. The right to privacy is not criminal and it's not negotiable. I am not going to contribute to the DHS's database of names and numbers to prove that I'm not a criminal. I am not a criminal.
Government is overstepping it's bounds once again. If you don't believe privacy is a right, then how about you take your names and numbers and post them on the largest database on the internet. Assholes.
"Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against.... We're after power and we mean it.... There's no way to rule innocent men.
The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.
Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted- and you create a nation of law-breakers- and then you cash in on guilt.
Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with."
The council people or whoever the fuck they are must not have gotten the memo from the folks up there to stay the hell off their rock. The reason why people aren't being sent isn't because people just aren't expendable in the military. It's because we were told to go away. Check the transcripts from Armstrong and Aldrin.
If you think we're the only things growin in this Universe with something better than a rocket shitmobile, I have a flat model of Earth to sell you.
Cable costs 60 to 100 per month. Channels I'd like to watch out of 120 end up hovering at around 3. Of those 3 channels, I can only say I like 4 shows. But I don't get to pick and choose to watch what I want when I want.
Unlike everything else on this planet, I have to wait until some timeslot asshat allows me to see what I'm paying for at his convenience. I don't have time to sit around and plan my life around some work of fiction and advertisements. Entertainment is supposed to entertain. I don't like going to the movies at 6 fucking AM in the morning because it is not entertaining at 6 fucking AM in the morning.
So, what do I do? I don't watch TV at all. I haven't watched TV for about 5 years now. The shows I want to see- like stargate or babylon 5 or whichever- I download for nothing. And it takes time to do this. I would pay 1.50 per show to download and watch it. If I buy the DVD boxed set, it comes out to 2 bucks a show. All things being equal, I'll pay for that convenience of getting it when I want and how I want. Just like ATM machine's at 1.50 a pop.
The market has changed around you TV people. You know this. Now be an American and capitalize on it. The days of consumers sitting around waiting on you are fucking over. Deal or die you got damn idiots.
RICO statute and trial by Jury is the right way to do this. She just needs the money to sustain the effort. Please put up a paypal or another donation account so we can help.
I also deal with this shit all the time. Find me a MCSE that understands any real OS and I'll show you a salesman. Unix? What's that? Microsoft invented the IntarWeb! Ack.. die you stupid fuckers.
And so do I. I think you're really on to something deep here. Perhaps after you study the RICO statues, you'll be able to differentiate between businesses and the mafia. If you want to pay protection money you be my guest.
I agree. Somewhat like proactive abortion, the days of training to leave IBM are coming to an end. The market has fluxed and changed. Corporations make money by exploiting poor populations and selling it to rich populations. Only before we had laws that disallowed US companies from having the majority of their workforce in another slave labor based nation. Not anymore.
I think it's quite ingenius though to try to get rid of employees this way. It makes IBM's bottom line look better, and will also be good PR. Such as for the poster above me.
IBM has been making some good moves lately. And as long as the strong feed off of the weak, they are doing the right thing for the corporation. For the people though? Hahaha.. Who are you kidding. Smoke and mirrors, indeed.
Keep in mind that all of these new weapons will be used on the domestic population- aka Americans. This will not be used on terrorists as it is not a deterrent against people willing to die.
Marine's will not jump out of helicopters with lightening guns and sticky goop anymore than terrorists will start asking for forgiveness when you spray mace in their eyes.
These non-lethal weapons are meant to be used on you dear citizen. Don't be so excited about technology for it's own sake. There is no purpose here as a deterrent in terror or any other kind of war when.50 caliber shells do the job twice as fast and twice as deadly.

You guys needa start looking at yoru own stories, because I swear I read this yesterday.
You wanna solve time with algebra? Care to pick a point on a circle? What an idiot.

Same here. The previous hotfix is uninstallable, but I'm wondering who I trust more. Microsoft or an IDS expert.. Decisions.. decisions.
I agree with the hoax. And slashdot just propagated it. Dumbest shit ever.

I also agree. Although my boycott personally started when they began arresting their customers, Sony was the clincher.
Recipe for Failure:
1. Enslave lip synching replaceable blond bimbo
2. Only sell songs on 8-track tape
