I will drink to that. I spent time in jail...I should have hired a lawyer..but I was 18 and poor. So instead of the 22 1/2 years I was looking at I took a year. But now I'm a felon (10 years later) and I can't do a lot of things I would like to do...own a gun....start a business making beer...etc.
I use gentoo almost exclusively and I have slack 9.1 on a laptop. I can't bring myself to stop using slack since I used it since my first dealings with Linux many years ago but gentoo is just too sexy to deny. I'm installing stage 1 right now on an old PIII 500Mhz with 512M of RAM using 12 servers to do the work with distcc. mmmm emerge + distcc
I'm sorry, there's not much work into making Budweiser.
Yeah I homebrew too and I have been doing it for years...but just because you can make a lager that tastes similar (read: disgusting) doesn't mean that its easy to make it on a national scale. Every time we make a beer its a little different (or a lot depending on the conditions) due to temperature, light, water, yeast, carbonation methods...etc.
I could go on about what could affect the final product. I see why you posted as anon coward though since someone would come along and shut you down.
As for the price you do not have to build big plants with big scale equipment to mfg. all that beer..never mind distribution...marketing...people overhead etc.
I agree budweiser sucks...read my other post on this topic....but there is a lot of work that goes into making it...don't fool yourself about that.
God I can't understand who drinks that crap...

...its got to be some of the worst "beer" in the world. What went wrong with American taste buds that so many millions think this is "the good stuff".
My father drank budweiser for a VERY long time as did I when I started drinking. I then moved on to better tasting beers and now I drink micro brews and homebrew almost exclusively. They just taste better...
So I say to you that are worried about this development....experiment with better beers and don't worry about it....

While listing alternatives you should check out exim which I have been using for about a year now. It may not be as simple as postfix but has a lot of nice features with really easy to read config files. Right now I use a combo exim/spamassasin/clam antivirus to keep most of the crap out of my inbox
I've been playing video games since Doom II came out and playing online since quake 1. I've been a member of the Q3 CTF community for over 4 years and won a spot at the qcon CTF tourney held this past august.
That being said the parent is correct. Women get absolutely not respect in gaming. I know more than a few female gamers, my g/f included, and it is really pathetic the type of bullshit they have to put up with. Many just change their names to something that doesn't show their gender. Some women seem to like the sexually suggestive comments made on an hourly basis but they are in the minority.
You may be quick to think that this is a bunch of pre-pubecent males who are acting out the only way they know how by insulting and trying to degrade but the fact is most of these guys are my age, (27).
Anyway I know a lot of female gamers that kick ass and can/are in clans that are very good. Hopefully the gaming communities will get better and we can all just STFU and Play...but we'll see.
Every time I've ever spoken with a recruiter they not only prepare me for the interview by letting me know what to expect they show me how I can lie on my resume to get your commision. If you are too busy to interview....you are too busy to give a crap about your company.
j/k! Funny board though...and a lot more tech jobs being posted in the Boston area...but I'm always wondering if the guy posting the job is also the transexual who wants to be spanked while being humiliated....hehe freaks me out;)
OK here are the lyrics in question for those of you who don't know ST.
I was in my room and I was just like staring at the wall thinking about
everything but then again I was thinking about nothing And then my mom came in and I didn't even know she was there she called my name and I didn't even hear it, and then she started screaming MIKE! MIKE! And I go: What, what's the matter And she goes: What's the matter with you? I go: There's nothing-wrong mom. And she goes: Don't tell me that, you're on drugs! And I go: No mom I'm not on drugs I'm okay, I was just thinking you know, why don't you get me a pepsi. And she goes: NO you're on drugs! I go: Mom I'm okay, I'm just thinking. She goes: No you're not thinking, you're on drugs! Normal people don't act that way! I go: Mom just give me a Pepsi please All I want is a Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me. Just a Pepsi.
I'm going to turn 28 shortly. I just bought a house, I have two kids, I have a decent job and if you touch my rocket launcher I'll put a depleted uranium slug between the two sockets you use for vision.:-P
Hell no. "Price: $3,350 as tested." Thats nuts. Iv'e been known to spend over 3k on a computer before, for home use, but those days are long gone. What are you buying really? The ability to bring a small machine to LAN parties? Less desktop space? The benefits of compact space do not outweigh the hefty price tag for me.
But it is VERY tempting to have this puppy for pure "HAHAH I GOT ONE AND YOU DON'T" factor:p
That reminds me of the doom port that made all the monsters PIDs on your system. If you shot it it would re-nice the process and if you killed it it would kill the process. Very fun, and dangerous, and cool idea.
When asked why you are playing a video game on the production server you can just say that you had to kill a few processes that had become stale.
I went to the AFC Championship game (Patriots vs Indy) on the 18th and the back of the ticket reads (Spelling mistakes mine since I typed this manually:)):
This ticket and all season tickets are revocable licenses. The Patriots reserve teh right to revoke such licenses, in their sole discretion, at any time and for any reason. Patriots may refuse admission to, or eject, any ticket holder without refund if the holder fails to comply with any applicable rules or terms, or is deemed to be disorderyly. Inappropriate behavior and/or abusive language may result in ejection (without refund), arrest, prosecution, forfeiture of season ticket privileges, and other legal action. Purchase of season tickets does not entitle purchaser to renewal in a subsequent year. The holder of this ticket voluntarily assumes all risks of property loss and personal injury incident to the game or related events. ANY NON-LICENSED INDIVIDUAL, RESELLING THIS TICKET BY ANY METHOD INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, IN PERSON, ON AN AUCTION WEB SITE, OR OTHERWISE OVER THE INTERNET, AND ANY LICENSED INDIVIDUAL OR ENTITY RESELLING THIS TICKET IN VIOLATION OF APPLICABLE LAW, IS SUBJECT TO ARREST, LEGAL ACTION AND LOSS OF SEASON TICKET PRIVILEGES. All sales are final. This ticket cannot be replaced if lost, destroyed or stolen. Season ticket accounts can not be transferred or split. No person, regardless of age, may enter the Sadium without a ticket, and re-entry is prohibited. The Patriots expressly prohibit the use of tickets for advertising and promotional purposes (including contests and sweepstakes or other trade purposes) The ticket holder will not transmit or aid in transmitting any description, account, picture, reproduction, or other depiction in any media now or hereafter existing, of all or any part of the football game or related events to which this ticket admits holder. The Patriots and the NFL reserve the right to seek criminal prosecution of, and commercial damages from, any person who engages in any prohibited ticket use. Commercial damages will include, but not be limited to, the price charged by the Patriots for similar uses. Patrions may not bring umbrellas, alcoholic beverages, food, bottles, cans, containers, irritants (e.g. noisemakers), cameras, visual or audio recording equipment, or other inappropriate items into the Stadium. The holder grants permission to the NFL, the Patriots, other participating clubs, NPS LLC, and their designees to use the holder's image, likeness and/or voice in connection with any broadcast (live or recorded) or any other transmission or reproduction of the game, in whole or in part, and for any other purpose whatsoever, including commercial purposes. Dates and times of games are subject to change without refund.
Sounds similar. The best part is I'm not a seasons ticket holder...I bought these tickets (3x $325) from a ticket agency who no doubt bought them from the seasons ticket holder...who likely sold them against these rules.
...got bit by this. She paid something like $30 for a piece of software called spyware nuker. She coplained of pop-ups and general slowness so I took a look around and found out about the questionable activities of this program. Apparently it loads its own pop-ups.
She finally caved in and allowed me to install Linux on her PC, thankfully!
I converted my 70 year old grandmother to Linux last year and she loves it...hopefully my mom will stick with it as I usually have to remove viruses and trojans once every couple months.
I cancelled my subscription to Tivo a year and a half ago. I did this not because I was afraid someone was monitoring my usage, I like the idea that I can vote for my favorite shows by just watching them, but because they are using the information my Tivo provides to make more money and are still charging me a fee. Either get rid of the fee or stop using the data.
I have done exactly what you did not and hauled off and just "fucked someone up". I didn't get 30 days I got a year in jail...2 years on probation after getting out....and a 5 year deferred sentence. I cannot get the felony off my record for 5 years after the 5 year deferment (2007) and I cannot start a business that deals with alcohol (I've wanted to start a small brewery for a couple years now) or own any sort of gun (I own a home and have been trained with many weapons and I enjoy target shooting)....
Let me tell you...it was extremely satisfying giving someone "what they deserve" and even for years after it happened I was not sorry...in fact I'm not sorry now...I am, however, sorry about what happened after the fact.
Considering consequences is important...unfortunately I didn't....
So to the person that replied to you...I would say either:
1) don't get caught being the tough guy you think you are 2) think about it before you do it...consequences are sometimes more far reaching than you think

and how much per sq ft are we talking about now? Just curious.
"Sun plans to lay off 3,300 employees, but many from the UltraSparc V and Gemini projects will remain at Sun, the spokeswoman said."
If many will remain then some will leave, no?

I'd say there are 3 types of reactions women get in gaming communities:
1) Hey baby wanna have the sex0r? (asshole)
2) Oh you're a girl? Want to join my clan? (suckup)
3) Lets play... (people like u and me)
I don't know what the majority is but if you ask my g/f she'd probably say #1
