The Adventures of Ford Fairlane - Andrew "Dice" Clay in one of the best guy movies ever. Do not watch this with your wife or girlfriend. "So many assholes, so few bullets."
Yeah but it was my first Mac and, though my 6290CD wasn't really expandable, I squeezed every single penny I spent out of that thing. External hard drive, zip drive, scanner, printer, Ethernet card for the cable modem. I ran Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Filemaker, and a mailing list on that thing. Made me really appreciate my dual 450 G4 when I bought it:-).
It figures that his big "environmental" initiative is corporate welfare for U.S. car companies. Hydrogen is something they should be researching anyway or they're going to be stomped on (again) by the Japanese.
Hey there, self. I've come here to tell you two things. First, you turn out okay. Second, I'm not going to tell you anymore because you need to take the same roads I took, make the same decisions, make the same mistakes as I did. You need to do that because you are going to have children someday and they are going to be the greatest joy of your life, the center of your universe, and you are going to be the best father ever. So just keep doing what you're doing. It won't always be happy times but trust me, they are worth it.
This is why I hate liberals, because they don't respect people. They don't hold anyone responsible for themselves and would gladly have government assume the responsibilty for the lives of everyone who might have something go wrong in their lives ( and that's everybody ) until there is no more reason to cultivate that spirit which makes us human and which differentiates us from each other.
Your definition of a liberal, not mine, (anonymous) coward.
A lot of people had large sums of life insurance, but the insurance companies went to the Washington and said that if they had to pay out all the policies they would go bankrupt.
I read The Fortune Sellers a few years back and it seems to be along the same lines. Basically, people who "predict" the future (be it the stock market, the weather, lifestyle trends, etc.) will highlight the year they got it right and not mention the times they got it wrong. Read it and you'll look at things differently (and never listen to long-range weather forecasts again).
Terrorists crash into the building housing the brokerage firm your spouse worked for? Don't stop at suing the airlines, whine about not getting enough money from the government because he/she made a lot of money (and wasn't smart enough to have life insurance).
Oh, I'm sorry. People at brokerage houses tend to be conservative. I was hoping to help your argument. Looks like you'll have to find another stereotype to liberal-bait.
Ha! I watch too much HGTV and I always laugh when people spend a bunch of money on a remodel and include a custom cabinet to hold their 4:3 TV perfectly because I know they are going to be kicking themselves in a few years. I'm glad (in a gloating way) to see that it's already started;-).
And then next time we had an incident where the US was building up to war, some liberal would pipe up with "Yeah, but we didn't enforce the law last time, why should we enforce it this time?"
What law? You mean "international law", like UN Resolutions (which the US is prepared to proceed without)? Great, now we have to bomb Israel because of all the UN Resolutions they're ignoring. Aren't you spreading our armed forces a bit thin? Idiot.
Stability matters for some things but not others. Nodes in a render farm aren't mission critical; if one box drops off it's not that big of a deal because you have a lot of others to fall back on. In that case, you are looking more at bang-for-the-buck. Heck, you don't even need maintenance contracts on these boxes because if you can't revive a box, it's cheaper to just replace it.
Who said anything about force? This is about Microsoft being caught acting sleazy. No laws are being broken (that I know of), they are just being sleazeballs. Since this is a place to discuss nerdy things, it's being discussed. Settle down, eh.
There are many strong, good hackers in this world who wouldn't be able to work together.
Geez, that's the truth. Anybody here ever work at Citysearch? Work is hard enough without having to listen to someone yelling or listening to the voices in your head telling you to strangle that someone. Even over email.

Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me - Starring too-cute Adrienne Shelly and a porn star. How can you go wrong?

It started two years ago when Dubya was appointed President and realized his dick was smaller than his father's.

You didn't buy a Performa. Nobody wants them.
That is a problem caused by bad project management, not Perl.
To the untrained eye, perl looks like line noise, and may be rather difficult to maintain.
To the untrained eye, English doesn't make any sense. When hiring someone to maintain Perl scripts, one should look for the trained eye, yes?
Filed under "I meant to do that," and "We know the Iraqis have weapons of mass destruction, we just can't tell you where, to protect our sources."

Motorhead rocks. If Lemmy says a car is cool, it's cool for engineers, too, dumbass. :-)

That's not the way I remember it.

A child born to parents in a "bad situation" is not there by his or her choice. Time to use a different stereotype to hate liberals.

Does pr0n accurately depict sex?
Are you kidding? For most people here, pr0n is sex.
When that little girl grows up, I want her...
Go get her, tiger. She's graduated from college and everything.

It didn't fail because they killed Data.
No they didn't. It's all an illusion.You are grossly overestimating the appeal of video games.
Sony makes much more off its video games than it does its movies. Nobody doubts the appeal of movies.
