"Real" realtors will still blacklist listings by online or DIY listings. Non local "real realtor" basically translates into negligible viewings. This is true. In some towns (like mine), real estate agents will rarely show houses that aren't their listing, and as for out of town agencies, they are pretty much blackballed by default.
Out of about 20 agents I've met, I'd say one was not a slime ball or incompetent. The entire industry is scum.
So when you look at it logically it seems absurd to have children when you look at the fact that they'll be just as bad off as you and if you do decide to have them then logically it would be best to wait till you are older and more stable with savings so that you can make sure you can give them their college education. It seems like you are projecting a bit here. Who's life is bad, and how exactly does paying for a child's education help them?
who realize that life is not about having children. By that statement I gather you claim to know the purpose of our existence? Do share!
I've never read your regular posts...until now, so hold off the salute.
I married young and had kids young (I have three kids and am not yet 30), and my kids are the greatest joy in my life. If I lost my job and house and we had to move into some shit ghetto apartment, life would still be good.
I've been well off and I've been poor before. "Things" are nice, but they've never made me happy.
On a similar note, my mother had ZERO (free) support in raising me, yet still managed to work full time, get her masters degree, and become a very successful landlord over the course of my childhood.
I'm not saying that waiting until you are 30-40 to have kids is bad, but there are definite advantages to having them young, like the fact that by the time the last one of them is 18 and you've booted them out of the house, you wont be geriatric.
...but we are not emotionally or mentally mature enough to understand the ramifications of what we are doing as an age group. Who is this "we"? Speak for yourself.
A patent should be for something you don't want copied. No. A patent is for something for which you want to be paid for in the event that it is copied.
I think was originally 2010 or 2012. People bitched and they extended it. What *is* ending for XP home soon is mainstream support, which I think means no new features (probably no Internet Explorer 8) and no technical phone support unless you pay lots of money.
Over here in the US of A, the phone company has similar record keeping practices. Years ago, I moved into a new apartment and called to have my phone number transfered from my old place. They could not find my address in their database.
Even phone lines with no service here have a dial tone and you can use them to make toll free calls, so I called using my calling card to someone who had caller ID and got my phone number from them.
I called the phone company back and gave them the number to the phone line in my apartment, hoping it would help them figure out where my line was, and they still couldn't find it.
ensure the connectors are made from materials that don't corrode (i.e. not copper, silver, or aluminum) gold contacts are great, platinum is not worth the expense. I have to disagree. Non-corrosive connectors are only worth it if they are going to be in a corrosive environments. Otherwise they are not even close to being worth the money, over the standard nickel plated kind.
The teardrop attack was a DoS attack that exploited a TCP stack bug. It had nothing to do with local privilege escalation. Perhaps you should have "googled the rest of the details" before posting.
Aside from that, privilege escalation vulnerabilities have nothing to do with "good coding practices" mentioned by the parent poster.
I'd hesitate to go head-to-head on the topic with someone who essentially cured her child of autism I'd place a small wager that her child never had autism, and instead is just a extremely intelligent, late talking child.
I am the father of one of those. My son is currently in preschool doing great, and has started to talk up a storm lately, but before his fourth birthday, he said virtually nothing. He also did the hand clapping (self stimulation) and would walk on his tip-toes. All of those behaviors are considered signs of Autism.
But I was never worried because he is exactly how I was at the same age. Many people, including some on our immediate family thought for sure that something was wrong with him and the autism word came up frequently. This crushed my wife and caused her much anguish, as she was unable to step back and evaluate his behavior objectively.
Autism has been perpetually hyped by the media lately and as a result too many kids who just late talkers, or socially inept are being slapped with the autism label. My wife has a degree in literature and knows people from her university that are starting to study autism. When they take a child in, they always diagnose them with something even if it is the bullshit "PDD NOS", because no diagnoses means no funding. The government funded autism study gravy train is leaving and everyone is jumping on it.
At&T is your best bet. I've been with them (SBC at first) for four years now. I'm not a heavy downloader, but in the past when downloading live music vis BT I've pushed 40GB download/60GB upload in a month with no problem.
With 6MB you will only get ~5.1MB (85% of you sync speed) throughput due to ATM overhead, but barring congestion at the switch, you will get that throughput 24x7.
I've never heard of At&T imposing any kind of cap or cutting of service due to heavy usage, so when the AT&T rep told you they don't throttle service they are telling the truth.
Cable and DSL both have their problems, but Cable's collision domain at the node makes it (IMHO) inferior to DSL. The way cable works is the reason they have to resort so such strange throttling techniques.
I have yet to see Exchange work well in any environment over a few dozen people; certainly not without investing large amounts of money on duplicate servers and hardware. I have.
Weasel talk. Call it whatever you want, but it's the truth.
ISP's DO promise bandwidth speeds. Where are you getting this idea? All ISP contracts clearly state that service is on a best effort basis.
Comcast is violating FTA, FCC and even USPS directives about false advertising. What exactly are they advertising that is false?
Just tell the consumer your PEAK bandwidth depends on availability, but you are guaranteed XX bandwidth ISP contracts already state that peak bandwidth depends on availability. I supposed ISPs could reveal how much they are overselling, but they are certainly not required to.
I've seen that before with old educational software I support in labs at the school I work at. In one lab where they use several ancient programs, one pops an 'out of memory' error if the swap file was larger than 768MB and another pops an error if the swap file was smaller than 512MB. Neither program takes up more than 10MB of ram. It took me awhile to figure that one out.
Essentially there's two ways a computer can be compromised - either a self-propagating virus that get's in through a security hole in a piece of software running with high-level privileges or a directed attack trying to buffer overflow ("crash") a particular service to drop it to a shell prompt. The former are common Windows exploits, the latter are common UNIX exploits. Curious that you left out the most common method, which is to exploit the person operating the computer.
Therefore the only thing nessary for something to become offically a disorder ( or cease being so ) is that those who have voting membership in the group that writes the book 'feel' is should be classed that way or not. May I add that in some circles, there seems to be a drive to either create more disorders, or label people with disorders purely for funding purposes. Many universities today are largely grant funded, and grant writers need something to write down when they are asking for all that money.
One interesting "disorder" I've run across is called PDD NOS ("Pervasive Development Disorder, Not Otherwise Specified"). My boys both are late talkers (My father and I also talked very late). My wife, who came from a family were nobody talked late was concerned and started doing research on late talking and other areas like autism. She found that many universities who are studying autism or other developmental disorders will slap the PDD, NOS label on children who don't really fit any other criteria because putting a label on the child can bring in more funding.

It depends on which state you live in. Here in California were up around $3.75 - $3.90 a gallon.

The same thing is possible in Ubuntu right now.
