WAIT A MINUTE! I've come up with something better.
Have your PC, using a Caller-ID MODEM/VoiceMail card, do it for you. If an UNKNOWN NAME/UNKNOWN NUMBER comes in, it gives that caller the entire 3 tone and number disconnected message. 95% of my telemarketing calls are unknown name/unknown number, and I figure the other 5% bought my number from those guys...
I think I'm on to something here. If I were only smart enough to pull it off. That won't stop me from filing a trademark though, will it?:-)
amen. 3 fps animation is SOOO cool. Let's watch a camera pan over the same cell for 20 minutes... EVEN COOLER.
And Tenchi storylines are SO engrossing. Or maybe just GROSSING.
Save the plastic for something more useful, like 2 liter soda bottles...
If the government can decide that they need my land, and arbitrarily remove it from my possession, can they not do the same to so-called "copyrighted" laws?
When the discussion of the "hourly" employees pulling on-call came up, it was made very clear that we would become salaried before that would occur.
This was the only real solution to "tether" pay for the hourly emps. The salaried on-call people have a very (VERY) large pool of "oncall" pay that is divied up between the members of that oncall group. This means everyone gets compensated for tether time, and it also means they get cranky if someone comes in to the rotation and no one else went out.
Of course, I also work in the equivilent of IT heaven...
Written by Electronic Arts. Pretty simple, yet kickass, little game. I always tried (never succeeded) to knock out all of the air converter towers before destroying the command post.
Unfortunately, it would only boot on KS1.0, which left my stuff to the wind when I bought the A1200.
These guys have made this product available FOR FREE to perform a specific task. If new drivers for this piece of equipment completely circumvent the reason for its FREE existence... hell YES I'd be mad if I were them.
This is more similar to the iOpener, than the DeCSS case. This has little to do with IP, more to do with revenue that the product is generating.
stopping ACTIVE senators from having crap named after them? EVERYTHING that is new in that state has his name on it.... and it is all built with money he pork-barrelled for the state.
Now if he wants to spend HIS money on it, I'm all for naming stuff after him.
Now back to the topic... here is a picture I took on vacation over July 4th. Kind of anachronistic if you notice the G.O.B's (Good Ole Boys) to the right of the barn loading hay.

If I can just find what box my Commodore 64 is packed in.

This guy's been watching Salvage One re-runs. If memory serves, The Vulture was made from a converted cement mixer as well.

It can't be any worse than "First Knight". We still owe the Brits and apology for that one.

I think Dan Quayle would take issue with just how "new" it is. Maybe new against Democrats.
on a machine with a "rebuilt" NT OS. Do they ever stop.
If you read deep enough, the list is actually Top 10 in Networking Technology. Although you got me on Ethernet.
I'm more concerned that I've been spelling "Ofcourse" as two different words my whole life. :)
or a marketing issue?

Another one... might be what you're talking about.
