My highschool purchased a large amount of outdated army computer systems from our town's neighboring army base. The next year a new class came out, a "computer hardware" class. Well, the class taught very little about computer hardware, especially when all we were working with were outdated 8088's & such. Our "class assignment" was to sort through all these computers and see which ones worked, and then set them aside, the ones that didn't work, we had to try to fix them to put them in the working computer pile. It was supposed to go on like this all year, but us students didn't like the idea of being free labor for the school so we mostly destroyed these machines and told the teacher that most of them were broken. Then the ones that worked, we just played around on them and pretended we were actually getting stuff done. It was really bad ethics on our part, but we all got a free credit for the most part.
If you ever read his strips as many times as I have, you will have noticed that his strips actually reflected his own life. He made several cracks about the size of strips shrinking. and the series where Opus becomes a "stripper", he has many problems with deadlines. It is actually funny how much of his own life he throws into the strip. Also, he describes Steve Dallas as his alter-ego in his last collection. I am not sure, but i think i own every single bloom county/outland collection there is.
And, depending on the type of membership that the second Napster user has paid for, he or she will be able to do other things with the song -- burn it onto a CD, for example.
How would they stop you from burning an mp3 onto cd? I assume that these new, protected mp3's can be played in winamp, so how would they stop the "disk writer plugin" that allows you to decompress an mp3 into wav format and burn that wave file onto a cd in cd format?
This site, plus www.abandonkeep.com brings a tear to my eye. i remember the commodore system we had in first grade (i actually went to a public school with money for a computer(!)).... We did graphic plotting on it. So proud when i made my first american flag bye plotting red white & blue.......
In stores like wal mart, you have to be at least 17 to buy rated M games. They even card you. They are already regulating who these games go to. What is wrong with these games? They don't promote violence. I mean, sometimes I really want a railgun in some situations. But how can they really control this without taking another chunk of our freedome away?
It's hilarious. If you look at the scans, the majority of the cats just seem confused as to why they are sitting on a piece of glass. Most calm cats will stay wherever you put them for at least a few seconds, they they will leave if they wish. I don't think it's that cruel. I think some people go a little overboard, but people have been cruel to animals for ages, I don't think that websites like this are promoting anything new. At least they don't have pictures of two cats tied to eachother by the tail and thrown over a clothesline. That was the worst thing I saw as a kid.
I said Taco Bell sucks. I was just stating who owns taco bell. Pepsi Cola also sucks, but the product mountain dew makes up for everything else they have that sucks.
I used to be employed by the Taco Bell Corporation. That is a Division of TriCon, which is a Division of PepsiCo. I hate Taco Bell. They Suck. They Suck. They Suck. They Suck.
Does the first person in the room get First Post credit? Does he have to write his claim on the wall? What about a camera system to monitor the people walking in the room, so that when 5 people walk in at once all writing "first post" on the wall at the same time, it will number them so we know which one gets the real credit.
also, are you going to be handing out paperbags with eye holes labeled "coward" so that the first posters/trollers/flaimbaiters/paranoids can ask questions too?
Well. Depending on which genes you have more of. Let's say you have a Cow and a Gardenia broken down like this:
More of Cow, not enough of Gardenia
The Cow shaped animal will have no hair, but rather a thick leafy green skin rich in Iron and other nutrients. Near the end of this hybrid there will be a hole, known as an anus, which will periodically release a perfume like (but methanous) scent.
More of Gardenia, not enough of Cow:
The Really stalky looking plant will have a centralized circulation system. The flowers that bloom from this plant hybrid will smell somewhat, farmlike. During photosynthesis in this animal, rather than C02 being converted into 02, 02 will be converted to C02. Also, it is an urban legend that if you come up late at night with 2 or more people, you can tip these plants over if they are not paying attention.
The Incredible Machine was Awesome! wish i had thought about it myself. Oh well, if anyone is interested in obtaining a copy, I still have it. it's less than 1.44 megs. Just email me dick_willie@hotmail.com
Someone who would more or less be more likely to get better grades in school, probably wouldn't be playing many video games. Har har.
that's besides the point. I found a good game of strategy to play is Q2: CTF. Not only does it test your reflexes, but there are people that are good. There is strategy with railing people at just the right moment. You are constantly thinking as quick as possible, paying absolute attention to everything going on around you. and you are killing people at the same time. Stupid people don't excel in this game. I found quite a few worthy challengers. I am glad there's at least one older game still kept alive.
Oh yeah, I play Q2 constantly, and i'm making about a 3.8 GPA.
Is it just me or does it look somewhat fake? The numbers on the buttons of the phone do not line up, and seem to have been cut and pasted using an imaging program.
I submitted this story during an extended period of time where I did not sleep. I was at work. I skimmed over the article, I thought it was a joke, but I didn't see the line that said it was a joke. I've noticed the flames, here is my response. With all of the similar lawsuits happening, it's hard to tell which stories are fake, and which ones are real. I thought that the pillsbury vs. sun was a joke until I read the article. It's too damn scary anymore.
The best teacher that I had would probably be my 6th grade elementary school teacher. I was a very secluded kid. I didn't care about anything, including school. This teacher immediately noticed that and did whatever she could to help me out. She actually cared about her students and what they learned. She would also make subjects like history come alive in the way she would tell stories of things like the same damn boring story of columbus or whatever. The majority of the students didn't realize they were being taught the same thing over and over and over each year, but I did and i hated it. I couldn't stand having to put up with that crap and this teacher noticed and would let me do other things instead of doing "practice exercises" with the rest of the class. I really enjoyed what she did for me, and her impact lasted a few years until I reached highschool, where i stopped caring again, but there were no teachers there to re-spark my interest in school so I dropped out. Now i'm working for the government making 5x than the average of what the rest of my class is making now.
I completely agree. Data like this in the wrong hands is only going to create trouble. My fingerprints are on file with the FBI, CIA, DoD, and all sorts of other nifty government organizations just because of my job. I don't like it but what can I do?
The one thing i'm afraid of is the complete accuracy of the DNA information, they said it was accurate to 1 in 10,000 people. I don't like those odds. Just the other night I was arrested by a Cop because of inaccurate information. The dispatcher reported to the cop that My license was suspended, so they arrested me. I lost a day of work because someone didn't know how to do their job.
The only chat clients that I use are IRC and ICQ. And since i'm on broadband, i'm connected to both 24/7. I know the ICQ thing pops up the first window, but if you press spacebar as soon as it pops up it closes it and you don't have to see it. Also, Because i use a way older version of ICQ (I don't know how the newer versions work), I never go to the ICQ web page. I know that I, myself have never contributed in anyway to ICQ's funding.
My question still, is why is something that probably doesn't produce too much cash, something of extremely high competition?
I see that AIM has their own little AOL ads embedded, and MSN IM has their own MSN ads embedded into them, but ICQ never pops up any ads on me. Why is it that there is this stupid competition out there for a chat service? Do AOL & Microsoft want to collect terabytes of pre-teen chatting? What is the deal?
