Funny, I've not gone without work for over 14 years. Nor have I have not been able to buy the latest toy I've wanted. I don't have a single cert. Hell I don't have a single degree. Certs and degrees mean "verifiably trainable" that's about it.
If the idiots doing the hiring are basing it on certs and not skills then you really don't want to work there. Who wants to work with a bunch of talentless hacks?
Make sure to use their "take action now" link to voice your own opinion about the bill. I simply changed everything around in their message so it's clear I support the bill and sent it out.
Debugging is a skill just like development. Once you've learned a *good* interactive debugger you can find and fix bugs in much less time than you could with printfs.
ahhh so you're a non-conformist dev team eh? Let's just throw years of concvention out the window and confuse potential users just so we can be different. Fine decision making like that make me want to rush right out and try GAIM.
Americans don't get a lot of the facts about what's happening like other countries do. This explains a lot of the differce of perception.
Gee with quotes like: By who? The probability is by US snipers," he said.
and: Asked whether these were warning or attacking shots, he said: "One was shot two or three times - a sniper does not shoot an ambulance three times by mistake."
Is the driver dead? Then it wasn't a sniper and certainly not a US sniper shootig at it. Doing so would violate international law and the uniform code. US soldiers have the felxilbity to disobey orders that are clearly illegal.
If they were warning shots, why didn't the ambulance driver turn back? If you're getting warnign shots fired at you and you continue to do whatever caused the warning shots in the first place you have no right to complain.
The whole aritcle is a bunch reports of people being shot at while in the US controlled areas. So therefore it MUST be US. I mean it's not like the Iraqis would ever harm an innocent right?
You know, people like you will find anything they can to justify their point of view. It has nothing to do with who is considered human or not.
If you woke up in the morning and read in the paper that your father/brother/mom/sister had been shot and then read that some guy you've never heard of from a town on the far side of the country was killed. Who would you be more concerned with.
Tell me, if the US had stepped in to do something about Hitler would you be claiming the Nazis were just innocents? Elminating Sadam was a good thing, regardless of WMDs I support the war simply becuase it's deposed a monster.
With Twinview the card syncs to the refresh rate of the monitor NOT the TV which results in horrid video quality.
I'm curious about the loss of quality you mention in DVDs. I watch DVDs through my Myth box and have zero loss of quality. If you're using HDTV the videos can be upsampled and you can get an even better picture...
As for HDTV, you must be something wrong if you're stuck with a 4:3 picture. If you're in Linux land it's time to learn about modelines. If you're in Widnows land try "Powerstrip".
MythTV does automatic commercial detection and skipping. It uses blank frame and scene change detection, and there's currently a logo detetion mode in the CVS tree. You have the option to automaticly skip marked commcerials, or just notify you of them (so you can hit a button and skip over them). It works suprisingly well on the show I record.
With the built in editor you can convert marked commercials to "cut points" that are honored when you convert your recording to MPEG4 thus saving even more space.
Well it took me around 1.5 hours last install I did. But then again I'm on dialup and had to download a few dependancies that had upgraded since I last buyrnt my apt cache to CD.
A) It's not all that difficult if you use apt-get. If you can't type "apt-get install mythtv-suite" then I guess you're SOL.
B) What would that gain other than pointing and clicking at an icon?
Heck my Wife is capable of following Jarrods guide and installing and she's never used anything BUT windows.
Why the quotes around criminals? THEY BROKE THE LAW!
Why is this such a hard thing for people to get their heads around? They're breaking the law. Just becuase you think a law is stupid doesn't mean it's ok to break it.

And this is easier / more secure then simply buring the shredded paper how?
I know! We can dispose of the burnt ashes in different locations at different times! Boy that'll really make it secure!
Come on folks, don't make it harder than it needs to be.
Ummm if you're downloading music from a file sharing network you ARE a freeloader and a thief. There's no assumption about it.
For crying out loud i'm so sick of this topic. If you don't want trouble from the big bad RIAA then for crying out loud STOP TRADING SONGS!! Otherwise quit your bitchin.

Because maybe you'd think twice about doing it if you actually thought there might be a consequence to you actions?

So we should just stop enforcing any laws? After all it takes seconds for a new rapist/murderer/thief to pop up.
Funny, typing "gaim" on my Fedora Core commandling works just fine.. Are you sure you one of those that do know what they're doing?

Then you're an idiot. One cab only guess that you never read documentation and never bother searching the mailing list archives.
There's an EXTREMLY detailed walkthrough available at http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/
Nobody mentioned political correctness. Merely pointed out what an ass you are.
What's DirectX doing installed on your 200 corporate NT machines in the first place?
Smells like bullshit to me.
Linux != Mac
Why would a Linux "addict" flame you over using or not using Mac hardware. Put Linux on your POS home hardware then compare the differences troll-boy.

And of course nobody could write a system to take into account the tiny number of times a bogues record would need to be accessed.
Did you even READ the article to realize that it doscusses far more than simple database records before spouting off at the mouth?
Read the bill.
#1 Those people have nothing to worry about from the RIAA.
#2 I'd bet a weeks pay that those account for less than one percent of P2P downloads.

Don't you understand this is the 21st century? If everyone can't do it then nobody should do it.
No planing to break the law SHOULD be a crime.
Look at it this way. If I'm planning to kill youo, do want me arrest before I do it or after I've broken the law (and you're dead)?
Just imagine what they could have come up with had they applied their talents to an original idea instead of cloneing someone elses idea..
