Set up consession stand. You'll make a killing charging movie theater prices;)
As for cheaters, I find it useful to figure out who is where whenever possible, and then if I suspect them of cheating, simply pull up a chair behind them and give a gander. You may garner evidence of cheating, and at the very least, you might learn something from a better gamer:) Not every one who is too good to be true is cheating.
Oh yeah, and play some Wolfenstein: Enemy territory. It's cheap (free, 'cept the download time), I don't think most people have played it yet, I don't think there are any cheats available yet and it's available for windows and linux. There are only six levels, but they are big, and require teamwork. It would be very amusing to play in a group where you could have a few minutes to plan your attack strategy in person..
I worked for Network Behavioral Healthcare for several years.
Yeah, that's the county agency that runs mental health in multnomah county. Actually, it's cascadia mental health now, I think. In any case, I talked to a lot of patients, clinicians, administrators, etc.
I never heard a word of klingon.. staff, patients, no one word of klingon unless uttered by my geeky boss.
So unless Jeff has had a mental break down and now will only adminster the the network in klingon, then it's pretty stupid.
CO2 enrichment works really well for growing hemp (which grows fine in side shipping containers from what I hear).. In turn, use the energy from burning and the CO2 to grow more fuel.
Record structural stresses at key points, info that could be invaluable in analyzing the situation afterward.
You'd know exactly where they were placed in the constuction or retrofitting of the building, and perhaps could be even more useful than loose devices, providing they weren't damaged during the destruction of the building.
It would be really nice to see a user driven content base for something like this. I don't want to be solicited by the local resturant, porn store or hooker as is the case with rest of the internet. It would be nice to be able to get a warning about how assholes drive in this neighborhood, or if the cops are jerks here, but I don't need any more comercial ads.
How about user moderation akin to slashdot as well? Set my threshold where I want it and be able to ignore all the pricks who don't have anything real to say.
Caffine comes from coffee. Coffee does not come in cans. Or at least, good coffee does not.
Unless they can convince the folks at Guinness to bottle me Draught in the techno can so I can see the nitro widget kick off, I really could give a rats ass less.
I love technology, probably always will. When I did tech work for a living, I was miserable. Although I was a decently paid, competent sys and net admin, I was under educated, and generally poorly treated in my opinion. I don't work in the feild anymore for a number of reasons, not the least being the amount of education required to find a stimulating job. Plus, once you find that decent, stimulating job that doesn't require selling your soul to microsoft (or some other corporate giant), they are as likely to roll over and die with out a whimper as they are to take you to the top with a roar.
Turns out, I like making things. With my hands. Big hammer and a furnace that brings steel up to 1500 degrees f. It doesn't pay as well, hammering hot steel into swords, but it sure feels a hell of a lot better.
David Bruce (a pen name for a british falconer named Sam Barnes) wrote a book a number year called 'Bird of Jove.' It's represented as a true account of Sam's experiences with a very large himalyan eagle, Aquila Chrysaetos Daphanea, also called the berkut eagle. Although the authors use of a pen name to write about his own expereinces makes the book seem somewhat fraudulent, a number of respected falconers suggest that it is a true account, although self agrandizing. Mr. Barnes Berkut had a reported wieght of about 26 pounds for a female bird. The California condor has a a body wieght of about 20-24 pounds and a wind span of 9-9.5 feet.. It just doesn't seem that unlikely that there are birds that are slightly larger floating around out in the wilderness of Canada/alaska/russia.
seems to be putting more, small recievers on top of utility poles. Reaps several benefits, increased revenue for an already cash straped goverment, and better reception for Portland wireheads.
Here's a quote from the Willamette Weekly, a local paper, "Health skeptics may protest, but cell-phone users may be headed toward better reception. New cell-phone towers may sprout on utility poles all over the city under a new proposal, spearheaded by Commissioner Sten's office, in which cell-phone companies would pay the city for the privilege."

that no one got paid for that.
What's holding them back?
The fact that the lot of them are money grubbing bastards with very little long term thinking ability.

You can read the
They aren't redesigning the shuttle itself. They are redesigning the launch system, to prevent a similar accident ot the last one.
The over all effect on the shuttle itself is nil, as far as I can tell from the article.
*Ahem*,
A bunch of really nice assholes who protect our national security.
Very, very stupid.
How do I know?

The article doesn't say how they tested. It says what they tested, and the results.
I mean, would getting paid to 'test' some projectors by playing {insert game of choice here} really be so bad?
I'm not sure why you would want to use DSL specifically?
If you are already going to be running cable through the complex, why not just build a 100bT network?
Does this mean that it's once again legal to hunt children for thier teeth?
If there are cards doing gzip at each end, that wouldn't be much trouble right?
Wouldn't the point of using a hardware version be that you don't have to worry about the CPU usage as much, in any case?
'fascinating patterns emerged--some that looked like spiral galaxies. "These tracer particle patterns lasted for well over four hours."'
'One of his paintings looked like an eagle, others like abstract art.'
Blowing bubbles, painting pretty colors on 'em?
Sounds like the first case of extraplanetary drug smuggling to me.
So use the damn CO2 for something, too..
CO2 enrichment works really well for growing hemp (which grows fine in side shipping containers from what I hear).. In turn, use the energy from burning and the CO2 to grow more fuel.
Yeah.
Kinda like an airplanes black box?

I remember vaguely some years ago when it was pointed out to me that harddrives had just broken the dollar a meg line.. Probably around '95?
How about the fact that it's a server that serves drinks?
Who cares what OS it runs.. It can get you drunk.
Canada, also..
Or at least I think that's where this can came from.. I found it in the car, it says taboo on it.. strange.

Unexploited == unpatched?
I know the difference, but I'm wondering what percentage of the unexploited are also currently unpatched?
Perhaps all the black hats are just saving up for, MWHahahaha, World Domination.

Perhaps I can finally stop wearing this dismal fashion statement of an aluminum foil hat..
Perhaps even get a date in my trendy new radation proof pub cap.
Perhaps not.
Yup.
Used that one on a customer with a 100' unshielded cable hanging between two buildings..
It was true, too.. During the Summer of 2000, I think, big solar storm
My favorite is still fat electrons getting stuck in the pipes.
Or, 'call microsoft' *grin*

Agree'd..
Security through obscurity is not the best solution.
It seems to me that if this solution is commonly used, the tools will also rapidly adapt.
