There is nothing wrong w/ ADD/ADHD, it is just that modern society has evolved into something that is not compatiable/accepting with someone with different brainwaves.
Also add now, the fact that society has gone down ward, and then the added poisons in our bodies. Those case more long term problems.
Besides, people with ADD/ADHD can learn and cope with it w/ help from parents and teachers. But in this day, no parents have time to be parents.
Absolutely! Air cooling can only go so far, air is not a very good conductor. Even if you had a big heatsink made of silver and the big fast fan, a less volume moving water cooled system would out perform it.
I would like to start seeing more commercial/module use of water cooling, where you had a large choice of radiators, reservoirs, pumps, blocks, and tubes, that are all interchangeable and at local pc shops. Most of the commercial ones you see are kit for single cpu , 1 harddrive and a video card.
Oh, and some other places with cases and modules: xoxide FrozenCPU
"Most companies are aware there are "white hats" as well as "black hats", because most companies have tech people on their own staffs."
If/When I tell people I am a hacker(or that I like to hack things), they always come up with response like "Arn't you afraid you will get caught?" because they think hacker is only someone breaking into banks and stealing money.(after all, to them, why else would soemone spend hours figuring a system and beating the sys admins)
Most likely, your letter be e-mail or snail, would be read by the non techy person who matters first. Be it be support person or a manager type. So there is a chance the company choses a set of action before anyone that matters(a tech person that knows) gets wind of it.
Gollum had the rign for over 500 years. And he was still trapped by the ring. Bilbo was/is the only oen to break such bonds. Not even Fodo who actually failed in his quest. Also, there is a whole lot more time, there was a lot more years between everything. Example, Frodo was 55 before finaly leavign the shire.(though his age was correct at the begining of the movie) So it wasn't an instant thing. The years slowly crept back.
The inconsitances exist because of the people making the movies. They created major characters and parts that broke a lot. They took peopel out, changed things, made some love story that wasn't there all so some dumb wench for guys to look at.
btw, Strider, the actor, looks like a sissy soap opera actor.
But really, the books covers themselfs quite well in not making holes or inconsitancies. btw, I do think these are the best movies, but the athor was not involved.
You must remember that the RIAA have created a system where opposition will fail. Opposition being anyone making music that are not affiliated with them. Granted a few people get by on there own. But radio, TV, magazine, etc. are all pretty much controlled by the RIAA squad. Not to mention, most of the avenues of sales are also in this little RIAA cartel. Then the price they charge to make the CD's.
If it wasn't for the RIAA we would be buying music CD's for $5.00 a pop.
What I want to see happen is the price go down. And every music store has a computer , cd presser, lable printer, where they don't have a large stock. Only things that they think will see that day, and print up the rest on demand. No reason to ship anything other than raw supplies that will get used up no matter what is popular.
Also, have every song available to listen in store.
Will this happen for RIAA? No, why? Because they don't need to and that takes investment. However, while copying songs is illeagle, it does help force RIAA to try other avenues to sell their products. But we are still stuck w/ them controlling all music.
The reason why she hated it is most likely your fault. The settings you chose.
If you wanted her to switch, you should have at least make the cookies act about the same. For someone who never sees a single pop up for a cookie and now has to deal with them them, the only thing they are thinking is "more pop ups", "How annoying, "Mozilla sucks".
I agree most people do not have a clue what a web browser is, and they think the www is an extension of MS. You got past that part, but you need to make it enjoyable. Sure it is nice being in control of your cookies, but if it is more annoying than dealing with pop ups who cares.
Unfortunately, the OSS community is like that. Example, Linux. Installing and upgrading software/lib is a huge pain in the but compared to windows where you just click on it, hit ok for the location and other options and it is done. And things need to just work with out having to understand what is under the hood.
It needs to be easy, defaults should make people happy unless they know what they are doing. It also needs to mimic how people work, not how things work.
Well if they charge people that are downloading for me, I better be getting some of it since it is using my bandwith. Say 50%, after all, we are acting as distributers.
700 meg for a movie, is not a replacement for DVD?s. However two 700 megs files per movie and the quality is much better than VHS. However, you can chop off the credits and the useless intro crap and save a lot, thus increasing the quality of the picture/frame rates.
Not to mention how many different versions and combinations of codec?s out there that is called ?DivX?. There is no such thing as being able to play them all, and play them all well. Also, there are a lot of graphical glitches you end up with, weither it is just the compression showing, to an error that causes everything to blur/go white/etc. Action movies with lots of background movement is very noticeably slow/choppy looking.
I haven?t yet read the article, however, I wonder what version of codec?s they are thinking about.
"I find myself wondering which company will attempt to step up to the bat and steal the gold ring, if VeriSign fucks this up."
Well, AOL might end up being a big contender for this ring.
I can't really think of any other compitition that has the resouces. Well, there is MS, but I hope if they even thought about it, there would be lawsuits up the wazue pilling up.
I think it is important to note that SGI while removing such code, said it was in the public domain to begin with, but they removed it more of a just in case/CYA measure.
"found brief fragments of code matching System V code in" . . . "generic routines" . . . "most or all of the System V code fragments we found had previously been placed in the public domain, meaning it is very doubtful that the SCO Group has any proprietary claim to these code fragments in any case."
That doesn?t sound like an admission of guilt by any means.
Sounds to me, they just took an intuitive to make sure there pants are on zipped, and belt buckled. Sounds like they could prove that those code snippets are public domain easily, but costly. But they want to avoid cost as much as possible. Not to mention, the: We did everything we could to fix the problem once we learned of it.
In the end, SCO is grasping anything it can with its lawsuits. They either know they are lieing/bluffing, or they are really demented.
Mostly, the people up top who decides where the money goes. And they decide that their own pockets are better than the ones who are actually earning the money. This is the case everywhere, but is even more disgusting in the school systems, when there are underpaid/overworked teachers.
They are also the ones who come down on you if they don?t like your project (Often times it is because they are told not to like it.)
It is sad that science is so dependant of the slimy sleaze balls noted as politicians, both corporate and government. I guess that is part of what makes the Star Trek series of movies/shows so popular with techies. Where the politics is much less a factor, and the techies often override the politics. (Well that and nerds getting babes, and becoming hero?s)
Now granted, it is mostly doctors that I am told who leave. However, I know a few people, one family, who uses American health.
However, it was friends who I know that live in Canada. I trust what they say far more than any article or public survey. All those people in charge of it all wanted to prove something they want. Not find out the truth.
How many times have you been asked questions for a survey? I have, and I didn't want to answer many of the questions because of the way they were structured. Its like those verbal traps lawyers get you into, you're being led in what to say. Or the sentence is almost completely irrelevant to the real question.
So, these in these last few years, have you been more comfortable financially than you where say 5 years ago? If you say yes, then they mark you down as supporting President.
With the power shortage, do you think California should be building more power plants? When we all know there was no shortage, just a scam. However, you are now counted in saying that the environmental laws are to strict.
Someone is not going to do a survey or a report unless they have a side chosen already. If they don't, then they were told by someone who does, and will edit it.
Actually, it is more than one amendment it is trashing. Press, speech, and search/seizures.
It is rather disgusting at what the powering bodies(government/big companies) gets away with now because people are lazy.
America was founded in such a way as distrust for the government is strong, but now days you?re a terrorist if you don?t agree with the current tyrants in power.
Over reaching laws, confusing words, and money, against someone with out money. Lets see who wins.:(
Lawsuits these days are nothing more than a way around the "innocent until proven guilty" for those with money that haven't created a law in their best interest yet.
We, as Americans, believe that all humans have basic rights, and to take those rights away should not be permitted. We, as a nation, have even broken other contries laws, and helped them attain freedom.
But also, not only are we able to help those others, but we are helping ourselfs keep (or take back) our own freedoms.
To bad people think that the rights we have, are suppose to be in alienable, even when it is against mega corporations.
Have you actually ever played warceaft II before? "While I think this is a bit of a shame, you have actually answered your own question. For a twenty-player LAN game, you need exactly one WC2 CD to get the media from, which is 19 less than Blizzard implied in the license."
You could play a game with 1 cd before, not with 19 people at once, but that is only because the game didn't support that many. They even made it so you could install "friend" version os the game. Same with starcraft. However, Blizzard is no longer a consumer oriented company.

About the soap.
antibiotic and antibacterial are two different things. One is a medical term, the other is a marketing hype.
No this I love!!!

The more we have moved in this direction, the worse it has become for us. Although, some of that is to blame on leagle reasons. (lawsuits, etc)
In these days of lawyers, what is thedifference?

What is with all the 100's of anonymous postings about feeBSD/*BSD is dead/dieing. There are 3 or 4 different posts, but cut and pasted everywhere.
It is like there are people being paid to spam this site with anti-BSD.
*BSD is still being worked on, is very stable/secure, and is used proffesionaly. So quit with the propoganda.
Ah, great and an exceptional point.

So, did he feel raped, yes.
I hope hes smart and not using ext2 for that reason alone!
Oh sure, only so that another person will fall victim in how the criminal gets the money to pay him with. Oh the vicious circle!
