"I say to you that the VCR is to the American film producer and the American public as the Boston strangler is to the woman home alone." -- Jack Valenti
Ah.... memories... I learned to drive in my parent's '70 Buick Electra 225 (8mpg hiway -- on its better days). But my grandparents' Fury... now that was a friggin' HUGE car!
He had found out that I went to UCSC, so after I won (some of) his money, we stood around the stage for 15 minutes or so swapping Santa Cruz stories...

Attention Debian Users:
If I mixed up Unstable and Testing, please do not flame me, just post a single correction.
Thank you.
Yeah, I thought of the Debian model as well.
Stable == Official
Unstable == Community
Testing == Cooker
Come on... Don't you know how dangerous VCRs are?

Jack wouldn't lie to us, would he?
1. Not tiles. It was the RCC panel.
2. The flight crew was trained astronauts. The science crew were highly trained as well.
Nice troll, though, you got +1 Insightful.
Anybody with ... access to the specs
.DOC format isn't.
Ah, there's the rub, isn't it? The specs for a GM compatible alternator are available. The spec for Word
Maybe they upgraded to Server 2K3?
Koreth, your name sounds familiar. When did you go to UCSC?
red floyd
Proud Slug, Crown '84.
But then that makes Tech Support's job harder... "Just reformat and reinstall... oops, sorry, forgot your CD disintegrated".
That's it!!!! This scheme reminded me of Duck Dodger's ACME Disintegrating Pistol (and when it disintegrates, it disintegrates! ).
Hollywood Video has 5 day rentals on new releases (not 2 days). What they do is give you a $1.00 credit on next-day-return of said new release.
.are there certain companies that tend to put the non-skippable ads at the beginning?
Yeah. That would tend to be (wait for it!) Disney.
The Count of Monte Cristo
Andy: You'll like that one Heywood, it's about a prison break.
Red: Jailbreak? Maybe we ought a file that one under "Educational" too.
think Disney's main problem has been running out of stories from other cultures to feed off of.
That's because nothing's coming into the public domain anymore... Why? Because that's what Disney wanted (see CTEA).
Yeah, I'd say that a temp of 1e-9K is somewhat chilled.
Please, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!!!
Pretty Please? Can we have that book?
Why settle for trillions when you can have... [pinky to mouth] MILLIONS?
I'd love to mod you down.
Since the who fiaSCO is about the kernel, I'd say that leaving out the GNU is quite appropriate. And Linus did do the first work on it.
Or even saving a copy of a document to a floppy disk instead of in their My Documents folder is totally over their head.
I wish that My Documents wasn't over some people's heads.
I recently transferred some files for my sister (who had just bought a new computer). She said, "I want my Works files."
I said, "OK, where are they?"
"In Works."
"No, Where on the disk?"
"In Works!"
So I did a search for all works files on the disk. They were sitting in C:\WINDOWS!!!!!
If it's "Corp vs. Corp" or "Ind vs. Ind," then loser pays the fees.
And if I sue $OVERPAID_ATHLETE or $OVERPAID_CEO, I'm still out of luck, because he can throw several hundred thousand at lawyers and not even notice.
Nope. In a criminal case, the prosecution gets one shot at you. In a civil case, either side may appeal (and appeal the appeal, etc...)
a used 67' Plymouth Fury III
Ah.... memories... I learned to drive in my parent's '70 Buick Electra 225 (8mpg hiway -- on its better days). But my grandparents' Fury... now that was a friggin' HUGE car!
And that's the problem... the impulse to DO SOMETHING!!! ANYTHING!!! is often a bad one.
Perhaps part of the Hippocratic Oath should become part of the Congressional oath of office... you know, that part which goes, "First, do no harm"...
look - the thing about C/C++ is that they are mature languages that havent changed all that much in decades.
Yeah, 1998 (ISO C++) and 1999 (ISO C99) are decades ago!
OT, but Ben Stein really is a heck of a nice guy.
He had found out that I went to UCSC, so after I won (some of) his money, we stood around the stage for 15 minutes or so swapping Santa Cruz stories...
Kryptonite.
All the film awards are the (evil) industry stroking themselves.
To them, you're still just a pair of eyeballs with a wallet. You do what they want or they'll sue you.
My wife watches Extra! and Access Hollywood, and all those shows, and my reactions is, "who gives a fuck about what some overpaid actor does?"
