College isn't like HS. I hated HS! Silly teachers reading from textbooks, or having us read from them. In college they actually lecture, and the quality of teaching is much better, more rewarding, more interesting!
Sounds like A+ got you in the door. I have that cert. I was in your position sort of. Bought the books for CCNA about the time things started going to hell. I quit studying for it. One good thing about A+ is that it doesn't expire. You should have gotten a Net+? Maybe you should get a Security+ now.
Sometimes when you achieve your goal it isn't wise to blab about it. It's about saving face on the one hand. Also I'm sure there wasn't concrete proof anyway.
One man acting alone could easily be called just as stupid a theory. If it wasn't the prevailing one already.
Ever wonder why we still have sanctions on Cuba for so long? We are fairly friendly with Russia and China now, and Cuba is a flea, but it's illegal for our citizens to even visit. Hrm... Anyway it was just something I was told, makes sense to me though
Give me that 80 ouncer, cuz I want some Diet Pepsi. Mmmm nutrasweet. As long as it don't make me fat I don't care what it does to me. I think it may be addictive...
I used to play on the MUD he was an implementor on.
You can check out his homepage here: http://www.legendmud.org/raph/
It has his writings on game stuff, quite a bit of stuff hes collected.
The mud is pretty kickass too.

Maybe you should consider focusing on places where the people are struggling to get enough to eat. I guess the real question is, is there any place that is lacking in knowledgeable computer people. Seems that a few small obscure countries have some very talented people.
I might also check to see if there was any project that meshed what I liked to do a lot, with something that benefits your charity. These aren't trivial questions are they?
Be careful of leaving cdr's in the sunlight. The dyes are light sensitive and easily damaged in the sunlight. Might be a consideration for some of you. Kodak makes some cdr's which have a protective coating.
I have a 2x burner, so speed isn't an issue, but I buy the cheapest cdr's I can find and haven't had any big problems.
Started viewing 4am or so in TN. First I just got in the shadow of the house. Counted 130 in 30 minutes or so. I was impressed! So I got in the car and drove to a more remote location. At that point I counted 100 in around 7 minutes!
I saw quite a few bolides. Which someone posted about, didn't know what they were, but as they said they are the ones that go very bright and seem to burst a bit. They left wider streams of cloudy light and even stayed visible for a few seconds before dimming out.
The highlights had to be when I saw 3 seemingly at the exact same time, all radiating away from one point. Then later I saw 2 at the same time which appeared to be moving exactly parallel to each other.
A few of them were very dim so getting to a dark place makes a lot of numbers as far as how many you will see as well as just making it more fun.
A lawn chair is supposed to make your neck not hurt??? I just put a blanket on the ground and laid flat on my back. I would think that would work better? Anyway it seemed to work well for me.
I think the Murdoch angle is interesting. Murdoch thinks Gates wants to take over the world. Gates says he doesn't want to take over the world, but then he says how they have changed the world. Murdoch like anyone infringing on his turf, and I think this statement proves Murdoch's point to a degree. I think Gates trys to do whats good for the society and make money at the same time. He is just a real smart guy with the resources in the right place at the right time. Too bad his thinking about what would be good for society is so different from the rest of us. He would not turn down the title of King of the world if the nations declared their loyalty. Hehe theres a Y2K nightmare for yah.
Unfortunately, UW2 drives are very expensive and so are the disk controllers. Also, one of the main advantages of scsi, imo, is less CPU utilization. Personally, I would rather have a 7200 rpm Ultra DMA/66 hard drive and a whole computer for around $1200 instead of spending $1200 on just a HDD and controller. That stuff is fine for servers and such or whenever the company is paying for it. I do agree that the money could be spent better than on refrigeration.
Hehe, This is actually your video card saturating your bus. The video card manufacturers set them up to get the best possible performance, but the sound cards trickle their data across the bus, and when your video card sends data across it affects the sound. Some manufacturers have an option to disable this. Sorry I can't explain it in more detail. I found this out by reading FAQs for winamp, but the Winamp page is less detailed and I can't get the links from Winamp because I'm behind a firewall. If your interested in fixing this check the third party Winamp homepages.
Ok first he waived his right to a speedy trial is why the trail is taking so long.
As for whether or not he distributed the source or what its valuation should be. What if you change it around and say it was another corporation that stole the code, and you still can't prove they did anything with it. Either distributing it or profiting by it. Do you still say theres no damage done?
If someone is willing to pay 10 million dollars for binary X. Then someone stealing binary X will be charged with stealing a 10 mill item, whether or not it can be proved that he distributed or intended to distribute the code or not.
If the code is actually worth 10 mill then he should be charged as such. Saying you can't prove he gave it away doesn't hold up. Whats to say he couldn't take said code and start a company himself.
What is arguable is what the code should be valued at. What it comes down too is, the law must protect against people stealing code that _will_ use it for profit, Ie other corporations. Considering a corporation could employ people to pose as "innocent" hackers to steal code from their enemies, the goverment must protect companies against this, and the government is trying to send a message to hackers that they will be prosecuted to the full extent etc. Joe hacker will have to realize this will be taken seriously.
I'm sure Mitnick caused 0 dollars of damage, but I think they are trying to set a precedent, not that I'm on the governments side on this.
The funny thing about hacking though is you break into a site, then you might consider the info on the site is safeguarded for a reason. I think when you hack you basically have to accept if your caught your screwed, its pretty indefensible activity.
Ok, when and if we make a computer that is self aware. The thing just might have a few questions just as you yourself do. Who am I? Where am I going? What is my purpose. Humans will be its creator, its God. Don't try to say there are some religious issues here. The thing is we are light years aware from this, and may never create a truly selfaware type machine. Win95 proclaiming my hdd needs defragging just isn't the same thing.
I see us learning to communicate with monkeys or dolphins and them asking about god before we animate any silicon.

They test and make fun of just how stupid Americans, in person, can believe a Eastern European is.
Hey bonehead...they stopped the liquids, because the public doesn't know it wouldn't work. They have already allowed some liquids again in the U.S.
Also, of course you are going to arrest people trying to do terrorism with unworkable plans.
It is always cheaper just to let people die.
Why the hell does it cut off the last sentence!

These are interesting. Flapping wings n such. Would it be possible to use insects in the design?
For instance could you take an exoskeleton from maybe a grasshoper, and add microparts so it's remote controlled?

What is TDD Time Delay Device? Do you suffer from stuttering? :)
Just kidding, don't hit me!
1. If an asteroid destroyed the planet, what would Jesus do? At the second coming, would he be like, where did everyone go!
:P
2. Do fundamentalists believe god protects the planet? Or do they believe the bible is like seeing the future, so it never is going to happen.
Offtopic? Maybe, but they say always ask what jesus would do!
Well he was killed that is for sure huh?

Before freaking out you should spend $5 on a keyboard. Probably is your problem.
"Maybe Castro is less easily upset"
Maybe not, I was told by a member of the CIA that Kennedy was killed in reaction to attempts on Castro's life.
