If you've ever worked in any kind of warehouse you'd understand the significance of using RFID technology to assist in everyday tracking of goods.
Wal-Mart being evil is a whole different story. There are 2 sides to every situation. Maybe if people gave a shit about anyone besides themselves we wouldn't have Republicans in the House, Senate, Judiciary and Executive Branch. That's all they sell. Fuck your neighbor, here's a tax cut.
When society differes from Wal-Mart I'll call them evil. Until then, it's status quo.
This guy is dead wrong. Why wouldn't one shot from a armor piercing 30-06 or a.308 kill? Remember the sniper in Virginia/DC/Maryland. Granted armor would minimize 1 shot kill to an extent but not completely.
I do agree however that AK's etc should do more damage. However, if that were the case kid's would never get a learning curve.
There is no absolute answer to this question. It is totally dependent on the company the poster works for. If it's a small business he has a chance to get some real input and feedback. However, it doesn't sound small to me. Therefore, I'd shut the fuck up, and not piss anyone off.
Oh wait, I'd blatantly point out all the company short comings and screw any future opportunity with the bunch of sorry asshole's I work for. Tell me again why I'm laid off?
If you don't want to be an entrepreneur then you should always play the game. The only way to succeed in business is to keep your head down and avoid the bullets flying over your head.
Agreed, AC97 is a POS. Every computer I've ever seen someone is using it on the driver implementation and quality is pure shit. Just spend the $50 and get an Audigy card.
Maybe in 1995 they were better as far as memory bandwidth, not anymore. They use standard PC components with the exception of the mobo and processor. The only reason they have good transfer time is they use Fibre channel hard drives in their higher end systems. This computer (Blade 1500 uses IDE). Hell all you need to do is read the specs: 1 GHz UltraSPARC III, 1GB DDR 266MHz RAM, 80 GB IDE Hard Drive, DVD, Solaris 8 (Installed, to get the CD's it's $100 more!). All for $3995.
If you want an excellent Unix on a 64bit processor I suggest this: Dual 1.8GHz PPC970, 1GB DDR400 RAM, 160GB SATA Hard Drive, CDRW/DVD, Mac OS X 10.3 (I added a 20" Cinema Display and 3 year AppleCare to get it closer in price). All for $4068.
My guess is a Dual 1.8GHz 64bit processor with a faster hard drive and memory channel would be significantly faster. But what do I know, just a guess on my part.
You don't need to live where you are forecasting weather. You just need data (and a lot of it). Besides most weather is predicted by computer models now anyway. Doing it by hand is very tedious and error prone (I have taken some meteorology classes when I was in college, and they were more difficult than you'd think, especially with the wind whipping down the plains).
People who travel a lot may want a laptop for gaming. When I was a consultant and flew every monday morning and friday afternoon between home and clients, I enjoyed playing video games on the plane.
Not to mention any mobile applications that would be used in on-site engineering.
Our society doesn't value education or teachers so as a consequence we have people teaching conformity not fostering growth in academia. Who in their right mind would accept a job for the wages teachers make? Hell, they should have skipped college and just continued waiting tables.
Remember, in life you get what you pay for, since we live in a Republican run country. You pay for war, not education. No child left behind, right.
Good advice. Here's some more. Diversification doesn't only mean a well diversified stock portfolio, it also means bonds, TBills, Mortgage/Real Estate, Tax Free Municipal Bonds, etc. There are a lot of investment opportunities, stocks are very volatile.
I use it for my Federal & State and my Business (S-Corp) Federal & State. It's very easy to use and is a first class piece of software. 5 years in a row now for me. My accountant charges me around $1200 to do all those filings where I paid $145 for TaxCut. Plus, they offer to pay your penalties & interest if there is a miscalculation that causes a problem with your return! Now that is standing behind your product.
A machine shouldn't last 1 year. I have a IBM Thinkpad from 1991 that still runs like a champ. Hell I still have my first Apple//e which runs since 1983, so don't give me bullshit about "That's the deal". If everything you bought only lasted as long as the warranty you'd be pissed. Imagine your car no longer works after 3 years, your TV breaks every year, not to mention all your computer components, DVD players, stereo equipment, etc.
Pull your head out of your ass. It is okay to expect your equipment to work longer than the warranty is valid.
Lol, every police car I've seen has one for the driver. ABOVE THE LAW!!!! Of course if the law says it only is when the car is moving then that's different.
0 = 0 1 = 1 10 = 2 11 = 3 100 = 4 101 = 5 and so on.
If you're running Windows open the calculator, choose scientific view, click the bin radio button (for binary) and type in 10. Then click dec (decimal) radio button and it will show you the related value (2).

I love it, use it and bought it!

The Evil Republicans have controlled the Senate and House for over 6 years.
The United States of Republicans. May they all burn in hell.

is a hell of a lot easier than keeping up with bsd/linux and all the associated packages (in my experience).
Mac: Run Software Update, click Accept. It doesn't get much easier.

This was shown at MWSF, of course it's an ad.

How the hell do you hum Anthrax? I mean you must smoke 8 packs a day to get that kind of distortion on your hum.
My hat goes off to you, Anthrax hummer.

Half of zero is zero. In the Bush Economy that isn't a problem.

when Doom 3 limits the max frame rate to 60fps (I think that is what was said).
Have you tried this with FreeDOS? I'm not that brave.
What happens when you no longer have floppy drives? I have never flashed any of my Macs but now I'm wondering how I would do it.
Or you could just build categories in quicken/money/gnucash? and print reports at the end of the year.
I use Quickbooks for my business and those are my only writeoffs anyway.
