Because I am reading my mail in Pine, with headers turned on, so I see all the false links and other standard spammer bullshit.
Because I only communicate with banks by snail mail or the telephone. The amount of money in the bank is too important to be left to an insecure transmission medium (yes, I mean email)
Because I am using mozilla, and so all the pinheaded hacks aimed at Internet Exploder just bounce off.
Because I will never act upon information I get from an email from an unknown person.
Oh yes, spammers, I do forward your
fraudelent emails to the abuse department of the bank involved. Since you put the banks' real URL inside your spam, and since I see that in Pine, I have no problem going to the banks real website and submitting your crap.
By the way, did you know that it takes harvesting 35 spammers to collect the 4 lbs of brains to make Spammer Brain
Stew? (Serves 4)
Cook bacon in its own fat until rendered. Remove the bacon bits and set aside. Combine flour, salt, pepper and cayenne and dredge the brains. Peel the testicles. Brown the pieces in the rendered fat with the onions. Add 1 1/2 cups boiling water, tomatoes, red pepper and thyme to Crock Pot with meat. Cover and cook Spammer Brain Stew on LOW 6 to 8 hours. Add remaining ingredients including reserved bacon, cover and cook Spammer Brain stew on HIGH 25 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
I Don't know if you are joking about rabbit ears, but..
If you put up an external antenna (increases signal reception area and increases height above the ground), mounted on an antenna rotator (allows you to turn the ant to eliminate ghosting), and you put an antenna pre-amplifier (boosts the ant signal) up on the antenna itself (to minimize signal loss from the ant to the pre-amp) you might find
that you can cleanly get channels 100 miles away..
With "rabbit ears" I got 3 channels.
With the above setup I got 18.

After many years of that, I concluded the TV was a mind control device, designed to either piss me off (the news) or make me spend money on crap (the ads), or make me forget reality and go with the flow (All the other content) and so I took all this apart and put it away, but that's not relevant to what you want to do..
Did you try to balance the flow? The air mass going in has to equal the air mass going out, so if you are trying to push more air in then you take out some of your fans are not being used efficiently.
I also remove the sheetmetal plates that block
off unused slots, and try to use only every other slot.. That lets air blow out in between the expansion
cards, preventing a dead air zone.
I use only one 7 inch or 4 inch AC case fan (in a hole cut right thru the face of the case, with a guard on it made out of hardware cloth) at low speed to blow air into the case (I reduce the speed with a small AC capacitor (like used for AC motor running) in series with the AC fan). I blow the air into the case, not draw it out, because I don't want to fight against the powersupply fan.
If you have a lot of fans, the tone from each fan can work together to
create what is called a beat frequency, like the complex tones you get if you pluck two or more guitar strings at the same time.
Don't forget that the replacement cost includes the
time to drive around looking to buy the item you
threw away..
Sure that spare PC only cost $50.
If it takes you 2 hours (and for me this is
minimum time it takes to get anything)
the right one, and then another $50 to buy it, a few
bouts of road ragers, gas for the car, and all the other aggravation and fatigue
that comes with "driving and shopping", then keeping
stuff in boxes, and spending an hour looking for it
puts you way ahead of the game.
If you cut up one person with a knife, then you get
2 3 or 4 years. If you cut up a thousand people with
a knife, hopefully you never get out, but the penalty would be per act, so 2 3 or 4 thousand years.
Spammers and other net vermin (cowards all) cause a small to moderate amount of harm to millions of people. They are getting away with it because they are not held accountable.
If the harm product of Spammers and other shitheads (defined as harm * number of victims) were held
constant, and the number of victims reduced, to say 10 thousand people, then spammers would be hanging from electric poles in every neighborhood.
If a person hurts one other person, then they deserve punishment. When spammers and joe jobbers hurt millions of people, that punishment should be multiplied..
I personally favor eating spammers brains while they are still alive ( a lot like raw oysters, actually, with a wedge of lemon or a splash of tabasco) but then again I am a moderate softie, and my friends and coworkers make fun of me for being such a wuss.
Or if you want something really short then the maybe
"Space Cadet" which was meant for teens.
Oh yeah, the book "Starship Troopers" has no relationship to the movie, other
then ripping of the name.
H vs A? Well, H was a great believer in individual responsibility, and made a point on judgeing each person exclusively on their character. (as you will see if you read Farhams Freehold). I think
A was more along the lines of "can't we all get along" but I am making a crude simplification..
Can you imagine if there were thirty different ways to lay bricks?
A quick google search for "brick bond" gives 161000
results.
Some of the choices are:
stretcher bond
Flemish bond
English bond
American
English garden wall bond
rat trap (or Chinese) bond
Sussex bond
header bond.
Now, I am not a mason,
so if I can find this many choices in a 3 minute
search, there are probably more than 30 ways to lay bricks. Furthermore, I suggest to you that editing a brick wall is much more difficult than
editing software.
Cause in China, you get executed
for petty little things like embezelment, speaking out against the state, etc. etc.

Limousine Liberals have ALWAYS wanted the poor and the brown to take the brunt of enlightened evironmental policy.
These Elites exist to tell the rest of us how to live, not to actually follow any sort of conservation or limited consumption themselves.
The banning of DDT, for example, caused thousands of deaths for poor and brown people worldwide due to Malaria.. But Hey! Birds are more important than people!
Why is this a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention for the last 30 years??
think maybe the 'anti-fascists' just disagree as to who is the fascist.
I know I should not feed trolls, but..
The fascist is the one who is (and has been for 50) going around starting wars to furthur its international political
and business interests.
Oh, you mean France in Indo-China and Africa?
The fascist is the one who brainwashes its public into thinking that if they remotely disagree with the
government they are siding with the evil enemy.
Hello? Saddam has people thrown into shredding machines, and kills entire
families because they dare to say his clothing does not match. Castro did a raid
the other night and imprisoned about a hundred people who "dared remotely disagree"
with him.
The fascist is the one whose most popular news networks show heavily biased information.
Most "facist" places have only one new network.. and that one network never
criticizes the government. Have you ever heard of Pravda? It means "truth" in russian.
Sheesh.
The fascist is the one who uses his religion to justify killing people, while condemning people for doing exactly
the same.
I missed the part where we had rallies and wore headbands that said "Kill
Arabs". Could you provide a link?
The fascist is the one who condemns 'terrorism' but goes and does exactly that. (heard anything about this
'shock and awe' thing over the last few days? you dont think that's the same thing? go and look up the
definition of terrorism.)
Wow. Have our soldiers been executing prisoners? Going around out of uniform?
Pretending to surrender and then shooting? How about parking
next to hospitals, and using kids for sheilds?
The fascist is the one whose government actively admits [newamericancentury.org] that they want their nation
to be leader of the world, and that this action is just a stepping stone in that process.
Are we talking about about those peace loving mullahs, who rant about finding
jews behind trees and rocks and killing them?
There were never any 2-cycle snowblowers. It makes no engineering sense to have a light, high speed engine (for which you need to mix gas and oil) on a low power (7 to 12 hp) machine that needs weight for ground traction and has low rpm implements.
On a chain saw, 2 cycle makes sense, you need low weight and can use the high rpm to drive the chain at high speeds. There are some 2-cycle lawn mowers (lawn-boy?) and lots of 2-cycle outboard boat motors.
His cars probably get better mileage then most SUVs on the road, and the check engine light does not come on every 2 weeks needing another trip to the dealer (coworkers volvo wagon).
Besides being complete skinflints, that is...if you
can't afford $12/mo., you shouldn't be spending $300-500 for a luxury item...
When you demonize someone who has made a choice you disagree with,
you come across as an obnoxious zealot.
Your comment, and the other comments in this thread which personally insult the guy who made this PVR
and then took the trouble and the bandwidth costs to share it with everyone, make many people ask themselves:
"Hmmm, the Tivo seems kind of cool, but some of the most vocal users are such vicious, immature dicks.. maybe I don't want one."
If Linux itself ultimately fails to take over all computing, it will not be due to any technical fault or deficiency. It will be because immature, foul-mouthed shits who insult anyone who disagrees with them have driven undecided people away.
Call your local power company and ask if they will
give you an old electric meter..There are piles of old meters at the dump as the utility changes to meters with remote reading capability.
Mount the meter
in a box with a plug and an outlet.. Take the reading of the meter
Plug in your device, see what the meter reading after 24 hours. Subract this from the first reading you took.
Result is the KWH used by your device averaged over 24 hours. You can obviously use a longer or shorter time period, as appropriate to the device.
For 120 V devices, wire between either one of the hot meter legs and the neutral. For 240 V devices, wire between the 2 hot legs. Don't put 240 V on the meter between a hot and the neutral leg!
Yes, the Television Evasion Act will criminalize those antisocial elements of society
who refuse to conform to MPAA norms of behavior, social interaction, and consumption as demonstrated and dictated by the Television.
Television Evaders threaten the fabric of society by consuming less, and thinking for themselves more. They are a danger, and must be stopped!

Anyway, there is no bag limit on spammers at the moment, and I don't think they are going to be endangered, so go hunting.

Absolutely delicious when fresh killed, breaded, and deep fried.
The fine bones are only in the tail end, the center part provides large fillets which have only 4 or 5 huge bones which are impossible to miss.
When dressing the carp, you must remove a gland from the inside without breaking it, or you will spoil the taste of the carp.
Carp is, btw, a traditional xmas meal in Czech Republic
And I am not saying your outlook is wrong, it is just different from mine..
I use a film camera for the same reason I build my own PC, work on my car, ride a BMW R71 (Yes it is a death-trap)
:)
It depends on if you are interested in the product or the process. I get enjoyment from the second more that the first.
I pay about $2.64 to get 3x5 prints of 24 exposure fuji film at sams club..
The fuji film (asa 100) is about a buck a roll at sams.
Now, this could add up, but with my fully manual camera, setting my exposure on a grey card, I have not had a bad exposure in a long, long time.
Sure that spare PC only cost $50.

The British were not willing to kill unarmed Indians forever.
Americans were not willing to see blacks attacked with police dogs and fire hoses forever.
Germans had no problem with killing and enslaving the "lesser races", and did so till they ran out of bullets.
Soviets had no problem with putting "dissidents" into concentration camps in Siberia, and did so till it was no longer economically viable.

After all, why not get 6 of your mates, kick someones door in at 3 am and rob them, when you know for a fact that they are unarmed and defenseless?
And by definition, criminals do not obey laws, including gun laws.
