now it can be customized to fit a decorating scheme
I'm now free to hot glue various components to a piece of particle board and duct tape it to the wall behind the door. Now all it needs is some cinderblock and it'll fit in just right.
However, my (remaining) point that cars kill more people than guns do remains.
This whole issue gets people pissed off, but they won't admit that it's emotional. They cite figures about gun deaths and point to how logical they're being. I got a little sidetracked...
You know, it'd be hell to try and put this sort of thing in a car.
Yet, cars kill more people and are used in more crimes - and don't (usually) need to be used in emergency situations where they must start or other people die.
And just think how globally opposed everyone would be to having these required in every car.
And that is why this pisses me off.
Take a few drunks off the road, then get back to me, thanks.
Is it an inherent quality of getting older to feel that all of the coolest shit is marketed at people younger than you?
Nonsense!
What about things of real quality? I mean, yeah - Kurby 40,000 probably rocks... But.
The vast majority of non/. reading children (you know who you are) would never get a Kurosawa film. Well, maybe the 7 samurai. But only after that badassed guy lops the loud guy in half -- _SNIP_

Man, when we took MSN calls we HATED what BB used to do to people. No offence, but don't mention it to an MSN tech. They'll adjust your modem speed and give you a ticket number faster than you can spit.
If you build a manual connex, MSN isn't going to use it unless you specify you have "another ISP".
In the bad old days of MSN 6/7, you could repop it with CTRL-shift-F8, but I don't know if that works anymore...

You're absolutely right.
However, my (remaining) point that cars kill more people than guns do remains.

I say, DUI is a hell of a lot more important.

And then there was Donner Party 2000.

Would you stuff him full of pine nuts before you roast him?
Check the caloric gain in the manual...
Yes. <click>
Wouldn't a full-on geek have bypassed the heat sensor entirely and put a gas engine in there?
Nitro-charged brush shredders, and then some vacuums exploding.
That, my friends, is a well-booked weekend.
I was just going to ask if it's really that much of an "innovation" if I get a VCR packed in potato snow...
Also, to head it off, it doesn't taste good. I don't think you can spice it up enough. Maybe baking?
There should be a recipe book.
My car wizard is really pissed that no one can get this straight.
Also, he tells me that the cat I ran over last week won't last much longer, and that he needs new blood.
Crazy old wizard.

Your tastes are supposed to ripen, I think...
Don't try America's Coast Guard either. Man, they're tougher than they look.
You know, I'd been saying to myself: When are we going to bow down before the voice talent?
Thank you, Hollywood - for teaching us how to love again.
I hope Aerosmith gets that long overdue award for 'Revolution X'. Ahh, the double-whammy of a videogame/hair-band crossover. Torgo would be proud.
It must be Open Source.
It must look pretty.
It can't be composed of matter.
It can't have been thought of by a carbon-based lifeform.
It must call me 'Capt. Studjammer' or at least 'Sir Booth Studdington'.
Pancakes!

They use a code -- ask for The PaintShaker!
They'll know what you want.
...and you could patent the internet.
Think I'll patent 'four-clicks and above' and put a cap on this crap.
Anyone else know more about these technologies?
If I read you right, you're talking about passive RF stuff, like in those bigassed Honda keys.
They use RF generated from the car (ping!) to generate just enough electricity to de/encrypt a response (pong!). Viola! (sic)
I guess it's more like a transformer coil than RF, but what the hoo.
Maybe because John Doe is aimed at men.
I have no idea what buying put options means, but with my "touch", the stock market is mine!
Anyone want anything on my way up?
I'll be able to use my toaster as a router, my fridge as a switch, and the bathroom sink as a WAP.
And there'll still be lag because of the bandwidth hog ceiling fan. Yes, I know you're still rotating!
I'm scared, Dave.

Well, here I am.
