I'm sorry but in my version of english template means based off the same thing, um Disturbed, POD and Linkin Park sound nothing at all like being based of the same thing, I mean really, disturbed is screaming metal if anything, linkin park is techno rock, and POD is well, crap if you ask me, but if you ask anyone else, well they're crap. but sounding the same as either linkin park or disturbed, man you need to crank up the hearing aid.
You must be in a nice state where welfare pays for stuff. Where I'm at I'd make more money at mcdonalds then on welfare. I'd rather be a telemarketer calling dipshits like you then be working 60-80 hour weeks in fastfood. Also telemarketing is signifigantly less off a problem than your other examples.
I'm sorry, but how did Clinton lead to 9/11 more than any other president? I'm sure Bush has made more enemies in the middle east than Clinton ever did. US Foreign policy usually seems to have the goal of pissing off as many people as possible in as short a time as possible.
Yup, retailers sure make a profit on them. When I worked at Fry's we bought them for 299.90 and sold them for 299.95. Whopping 5 cents profit. When the price dropped to 199.95 we were buying the new ones for 199.00 so we were almost making a buck on those ones. Thats some profit there.
Where does one go to get these? I always have a use for another computer, if not for me for a friend who's just getting on the net. I can't believe people just throw them away, it seems such a waste.
Sorry about not giving any points I was a little bit slammed, still am sorta. But here it goes
I'd imagine that the market forces in play here are a lot like the ones in play in the 80's for phone service. If given a monopoly, a company will fight to maintain exclusive control over its geographical domain, to the detriment of consumers.
They're not. The 80's had ATT and later the bells abusing the monopoly powers, and not paying their congress man. Currently the Power companys arn't abusing the monopoly powers because there isn't a monopoly. I can choose between a few diffrent power companies
The evolution of the internet is in stark contrast to this, where bandwidth can be bought from any one of many vendors (despite efforts of existing local telco's and cable providers to restrict the market by controlling the wiring).
Abuses of power in one industry do not make it the same in others. The power industry is more than willing to help people with trying new things on their wires, the power bandwith projects and the slinging of fiber through the center of power lines.
Let the market decide where and when it's economically feasible to lay new power lines, and this will grow much like WiFi is, starting in the most-demanded areas and spreading out from there. Along with this will come the kind of redundancies that the northeast U.S. and Canada should have had; with market forces in play a company is going to be very careful about making sure their customers don't lose power--the damage to a competing company's reputation from something like the recent blackout would be terrible for them to contemplate.
First WiFi started from scratch so it could grow. However letting power companies decide where it's cost effective to put power is a bad idea. They will shy away from slinging it out to the boonies. Just like the cable and telco's do right now.
Even with a grid like the article talked about there is only so much power to go along the lines, the power generation is centrilized. So it doens't matter WHO you have you still lose power if somthing close enought to the power plant dies.
I'll look forward to the day I can have a box on the side of my house into which I can plug whatever sources of electricity I choose, and I expect that the costs of this commodity will then drop dramatically, much like telephone service did.
This is what made me make my comment, a box on the side of your house? No, the companies will lease the use of the power lines and you will have to a pay a line transport fee. The costs will not drop as according to my power bill only bout 30% of my bill is power, the rest is taxes and line lease fees. Telephone service didn't exactly drop in price, long distance has to some extent but thats because of more carrying capacity not dergulation.
I used to work at Frys in the service department, we handled returns on all computers, these included. These computers are in the ad every other week for $189 or $199. We would return 60-70 a week with most of them going back to the manufacuter. But they were almost all exchanges so the customer still got a computer that had linux on it. Then there were the 30-40 support calls a day asking about how to use it or install windows.
I dunno, I worked the fields for a couple of summers in AZ and I got paid more doin that than I do now as a computer tech. I stayed in a helluva lot better shape too.
I actully get to work on the damn things everyday, and suprisingly I have fewer problems with them than with the shit sony has been doing latley. Or the craptastic compaqs. Lately Sony as been having problems with getting there machines to post out of the box and compaq has decided to just start sticking odd ram in there machines that doesn't work with any other known ram. Emachines actully are easy to work on, have mostly standard parts and arn't all that bad.
Did you read the article, this doesn't randomize the poll at all. It won't do anything unless people awnser truthfully. It's for protecting privacy by randomizing the raw data they recieve.
Thats uncompressed though, ummm I dunno of anything that uses uncompressed HD, I doubt anything ever will either, the bandwidth requirements are just to huge.
That should be intresting, a SB Dead card with a dual amd sytem that has a finicky bios that doesn't like noise on the board. Trust me, you don't put a SB card in a system with dual proc's speically a life. At least not if you value your sanity.
But linux is linux across all the platforms, it behaves the same(mostly). He's mentioning the fact that this has to behave the same without massive rerights and therefore it's not really a generic engine.
Thanks for pointing that out. I always thought it meant that the good thing about somthing. Hrmm now that I think about it I was probably thinking of upside...no more posting after 3 days without sleep.

I am gainfully employed fuckwit, I save people like you money. You don't want to take 2 minutes to save money everymot, fuckwit
I think he was uh, being sarcastic.

Thats just wrong on so many levels. I'm going to try it tonite though.

My mom recieved a kidney transplant about 12 years ago now. She's been doing fine ever since then. Thank god I don't have diabetes.
Of course thres always windows movie maker 2, which comes free with the os and actully isn't half bad for a freebie program.
I LOVE that line, I almost fell out of my damn seat laughing.
the you just record/playback the relevant portion
why would you wan't less explosive fuel? The whole point of fuel is to explode, and the more power needed the more potent the explosion required.

When I can get a box of 50 for the same price from frys wihtout shipping...

no, Microsofts assets are cold hard cash in numbered bank accounts, Bill Gates assets are made up numbers on the stock exchange.
