No, I think in a place motivated by profits, that nurse would have been fired long ago.
That nurse is costing them money, and is inefficent. Catch my drift now?
I expect that they like their job, but personal wealth is always a strong motivator. Doctors get paid per operation. If you had to maintain great care to continue to work at a priestigious hospital with A class clients, you'd do a better job. If you were bad for business, you'd be fired, make less money at another hospital, etc, so that the current hospital maintains it's rating.
That's why.
Instead of a bunch of people getting government funding, not really caring to work.
You think all the pharma companies do it because they care, deep down?
That statement is silly. Whatever motivates people to provide good health care of another is fact.
It doesn't matter if you don't like why. When you dive in the psyche for a lot of people, regardless if they're doing something nice or not, often when you find their reasons for doing so, you won't like it.
Ideally, sure it would be nice if people's motivation was simply 'to be better and care for others as a human being'. Wake up, we're not in a fantasy world.
How about Unreal Tournament 3 on Steam doesn't have working dialog speech on Windows Vista (works fine in Windows 7 and XP)?
This is a long standing issue that is not going to be resolved.
Weird issue with UT 3, no work around? That sucks Is it only the steam version? Is there other versions? That's one particular game.
I can still get NES consoles to this day. I'm not really convinced there is an issue here.
Yeah, what about the fact that you need a PS2 now for PS2 games, that they removed capability to play older games? Not all of us want 50 consoles hooked up to our TV at once, or to have to constantly swap them if we feel like playing an older game for a little while.
I don't like doing cable stuff consistantly.
Steam has proven that despite the lack of resale, such a system can be successful, if not the dominant redistribution platform.
Right - on my PC, where do I not need to purchase multiple "PCs" to play my games, or if I purchased a "newer" pc, unable to play my older games on it. Not sure what you're getting at.
You can say 'Oh, but every 3-4 years you have to upgrade, like, your video card' Yea, but all my old games still work, there's work arounds for almost anything Also I use my PC for much more than gaming, like, work, etc, so the value is there.
I don't have to fight with sony vs microsoft or anything else. It's either made for PC, or not.
Only reason I like my console games, is I can buy them discounted, use, get the pleasure of putting in the game, and it just works. No storage issues, no hard drive storing etc.
If they try to make it like a PC, locked games, everything is similiar to PC DRM, all files are digital etc, so virtually it's a complete PC, with a limited OS, and a controller instead of a mouse and keyboard (which they basically are anyway) I won't buy any console related stuff, ever.
Problem is with medicare in Canada is that people are apathetic about their jobs in the medical profession, it's mundane, people arent' allowed to use greed as a motivator to perform better work and interest high value patients in requesting their specific services.
If the pirated copy didn't work right, I'd assume the game is likely buggy and avoid it -_-
I'm sure they love / will try to do it, it'll just be sad because I think it'll hurt the gaming industry more than they think. I'm sure there are people who also buy it because pirating is too hard, which is good.
We're talking about used games though. People I think will be more likely to pirate vs the cost of always and only being able to purchase new games. The only place I'm content with my games right now which I can't "sell" is my PC, because I can play it on all PCs, and don't have to upgrade to a PC3 or PC4 or whatever to play my newest games, and at the same time lose all my old ones. Specifically, on steam.
Before someone goes 'But dos games don't work!' Yea they do, dosbox, steam gams include it pre-configured, which is nice. So yea, I can play/all/ of them.
Ah, this person spends 100$ on games per year. These games are used and cost 20$ each. So clearly they buy five games per year.
BUT, just BUT, if we make it so they have no choice, they will pay 60$ each, getting us an extra 200$. That way each person gives us 300 in total!
IDJITS, We aren't going to spend more. You're just going to sell less, dumbshit.
Plus we're we'll be less interested overall, and only purchase the big block busters. B- games can kiss their sales goodbye. Since I would then place less games, I'd be less inclined to purchase a console for a lot of money since the games cost me to much and it's not worth the price to play like two games a year + cost of console.
There's nothing there that if asked I would deny, or something I would not reveal about myself.
They can think it's good or bad, that's an opinion, but what's on there are things I'm forefront about that's just me. They may not even like the sound of my voice, that's a risk I have to take.
I never said I didn't have anything people may not like, I just said I don't have anything to hide. You can be disliked for any reason, and trying to control that with every person you run into is impossible.
Your misconception is that since you can't determine what people will care about you need to hide everything. That's part of finding a work place / people that you can work with.
By accessing my facebook account at work (which we can do, as there's legal repricussions if a manger or someone access FB and isn't terminated etc, since it's all logged) they may see what's in my facebook. Data is monitored and we are told from the start for our online activities that we cannot expect privacy if using the companies resources.
They may or may not have looked. I don't care, nothing important on there anyway.
However if they asked for my password to login and look, not that I have anything to hide, but out of principal my response would be -'-('.')-'-
Here's the deal, people are getting ruder, budgets are getting tighter, parents are parenting less, the world sucks.
You add that to the fact that most people deal with customer serving jobs, it makes them more ticked off, they get yelled at, low wages, treated like crap. If they have kids, there's a good possiblity that the attitude and frustration / aggressive build up / energy of these people is flowing in their home.
That means they're shorter tempered, their tone is more agressive etc. So their kids pick up on it, get more violent and aggressive.
Personally, if I didn't have video games to blow off some steam, I'd likely drink and do it then, or next time some jerk cuts me off or throws something out of their car at me, I'd ram them off the road, literally.
But fortunately, I have other ways to deal with stupid ****king people.
You can't pass a bill against ***holes, and that's the one thing you need.
If I could play all my video games without any performance issues or lack of features compared to running it on windows, I'd never run anything but linux.
Like ubuntu or something. The problem is, after a long day, I come home, and something doesn't work. I don't want to f*** with it. I want to spend my time using X program before I head to bed etc. Not fixing it.
Part of the problem is a large portion of PC users also play video games, maybe only once and awhile, but the point is, it's another app that doesn't run without configuration, so people won't use it.,
Lot of other programs do work well under wine or have great linux equivs. That part of the problem then comes to marketing. Not enough people are aware of the compatible programs available to them.
The final thing I think is device integration. People I feel often have a misconception that they can't plug in their MP3 player and load on tons of music and things like that on to linux.`
Windows has the best of both worlds right now. Applications can be configured to install everything a person needs without any technical readouts, silent installs etc. At the same time, you can do it the hard way on windows if you need to.
Linux runs into dependency issues and other things depending on your build that you need to configure. If you could have packages auto-install dependencies almost always it would be better.
It's getting way better than it used to be, but, yeah.
So much for virus removal services. It's going to really hurt business when people can just shut down their computers for a few hours and it clears it up.....
What you need to do is find jobs that will give you experience in the job you actually want.
It might be things you already know how to do, which means the job should be easy, but you can put on hard experience showing you know what you're doing and work in this field. You do that and climb up jobs until you get the one you want.
Well, if I don't need to download any music, tv or anything else, and every service has tons of commercials like youtube etc, then I really don't need tons of bandwidth or transfer cap.
Good - I can get that cheap internet, and I hope everyone does, cutting their profits effectively in half.
Locking is something the firmware does. Locked phone = unable to use other companies sim cards. E.G you update to that particular companies firmware when an update comes out, you're locked again.
So, either way. If you can unlock it yourself, then you're good to go.
No, how about this, instead, all the greedy corporation who refuse to use green alternative for their own profits get bio-engineered to be less greedy, spend more money on tech that reduces resource use, like greener power generation, hydrogen powered cars, and more costly but envrionmental and less waste producing manafacturing methods.
THAT'S THE PROBLEM.
Course people use products, it's your fault for using shitty ways to make them though.
Of course they want national laws. It'll be much easier to screw customers over if they can figure out national loopholes, a lot less work for their legal team.
If you can use foil to reflect, use it to deflect, if you wrap up in foil underneath your clothing, you'll be protected from it. Also line the inside of your hat etc. You can do this, not be visible, and not affected by the ray.
Say hello to my ray shielding garment. Just remember to shield your head/face, duck your head towards it so your hat deflects it off of you.
You have zero lives left. You jump, you miscalculate. The path you take, takes you down a hole. You die. It's game over, you have to start all over. The path you have chosen made the level unbeatable.

Wake up, we're not in a fantasy world.
I rarely buy anything console anyway, it's just more encouragement not to.
There are always diehards who will buy it anyway.
You're right - but I can simply not pay for things I don't want, which is the point.
