Really smart criminals do white-collar crimes. The gains are bigger and the punishment is lesser. I mean, why steal $26 from an old lady's purse when you can steal $26 million?
If you want to kill someone, do something creative like buy his company, drive it into the ground, and keep doing this until he kills himself.
Nope, they have more money and lawyers, so they'll win every court case. That's one of the reasons that these tactics can't work in Canada or other places with a loser-pay system.
If they sued me, I'd find ten lawyers who'd work for the "we'll get paid after the case" idea. Then the CPCC (our equivalent) would have to pay my lawyers.
It doesn't really matter. We pay a fee on all blank media, and in exchange, we can freely download music, software, and movies - legally.
I found the Yoda fight disappointing. My understanding was that Yoda didn't NEED a lightsaber - they were futile to someone as strong as he was.
Imagine if the end of 2 did this instead:
Yoda walks into Dokku's room, fixing all the tumbling pillars without raising a hand. He yells out, "Dokku!" and we can see the glaze clear from Dokku's eyes.
"Yoda... what... where am I?"
Yeah, that's better than a pinball fight. It's creepier, too, because there's something that can force persuade a Jedi Master...
The US owns the Internet because all 13 Internet backbone computers are in the US. No matter what way you look at it, those bastages own the whole damned thing.
Okay guys, I've seen this site mentioned on slashdot and fark, but I have absolutely no idea what in the world is going on with this website. Someone said tis' supposed to be alien hackers or something, but it still MAKES NO SENSE.
Can someone please explain WTF is going on with ilovebees? Thank you.
Were you too busy huffing glue to read my post, mods? I was curious, not trolling. Thanks for reading my post instead of just being a fucktard. Oh, no, wait. The opposite happened.
By the way, I asked before anyone else, so my post isn't redundant, either.
I remember that. A friend of mine has parents that were seperating, so he got both. I remember thinking that THIS was the way to do a handheld system - you could buy one game and have it work in two systems.
I'm going to install my licenced version of MechWarrior IV tonight, then email MS asking for a cheque to settle the unauthorized C-Dilla spyware install out-of-court.
It might actually end up being a good birthday present after all.
According to the media, people do everything that video game characters tell them to do.
For example, I'm killing a hooker with a rocket launcher right now. If GTA:VC had Ray Liotta voting or going to work, perhaps life would have turned out better for me. For now, I've got to get to the voting station to get rid of these wanted stars.
I don't know why I'm responding to an AC, but here goes:
You don't always have the chips control real-time stuff. The program I'm writing sets the PIC to sleep for a minute at a time to conserve power. I am using an external real-time clock chip to wake up the PIC every minute. Obviously, setting the WDT to in interval less than a minute would mess up the timing. To set the WDT to large intervals, you have to use a prescaler and a postscaler and reassign the postscaler from Timer0.
On a real-time control system, I'd probably set the WDT to two cycles.
Basically, if you've fucked up the code, it reboots the device or skips a line of code after a set amount of time. It's usually a few seconds, but newer chips can have a delay of a few minutes. (The one I'm working on today goes up to 4:28.) If you do anything with a chip that nobody will ever see again, you enable the watchdog timer. It's pretty easy to incorporate and lets your system recover from lockups or hangs.
I agree that something is fishy here. I am curious as to why he didn't jam the car into 1st and yard on the e-brake like his life depended on it. Don't people learn to drive anymore? Further, don't they have runaway lanes in France? We've got them all over the place here - they're designed for big rigs, but a small car would be more than welcome if you had a problem like this. You drive up a steep unpaved hill into barrels of water. You stop.
I'm an Electronics Engineer and I'd never trust a drive-by-wire car. Things go wrong; you have to have some sort of mechanical over-ride for a life-critical system like a car.

I think you should have read more as a kid - the tortoise DOES beat the hare.

Yeah, it's pretty close. I can't remember where I picked up this little bit of trivia, but I've found that it's pretty close for most shows.
It extrapolates to 30 minute shows and TV movies.
You know what? You're right. It's time to start wathing less TV, surfing less Internet, and playing less games.
It's time to powergame Real Life.
When you FF through the commercials, it saves you 16 minutes. There are 44 minutes of actual show in every 60 minute broadcast.
As do we all. Bring oil. ;)

Faraday cage.
Dick, get back to work. The last thing we want is to lose to Kerry because you farted around on slashdot.
Did you send the email to Gitmo about "Guest 1"? We've got to "find" him this weekend.

I'm not sure if you want to get laid at the same place your ex does.
But hey, to each their own.

There's a hell of a difference in the force required to stop a full-size truck and a Renault.
He should have started gearing the car down to 1st. Then he'd have been going slow enough to use the emergency brake.
Why do you think it costs 100K? You should see the sexy stew'ds, man.

No, embedded systems have a Watchdog Timer.

Get up, get out, and get a life. I was about as dorky as they come and I did it. You can too!
I'm fit, I'm married, I have a daughter.
All you have to do is spend a little of that time you spend developing online characters into developing your real life character.
The problem is, once you say something like "I don't know", then the rest of the campaign is reduced to soundbites like this:
"Beardo doesn't know about Marcoeconomics. Vote Greymond - because a bad plan is better than no plan!"
Same with changing your mind. I used to hate girls; now I love `em. If you're running for president, it's flip-flopping. Otherwise, it's puberty.
I suggest that fictional candiate's name be George W. Bush. If he gets any votes, then you have to hold a new election.
This will either go to +5 funny or -1 troll. Bets?
