Would putting quotation marks around the lyrics and giving credit to the songwriters make it okay to publish the lyrics? It would be just like quoting a source.
I guess we all should start listening to some jazz (non-vocal of course).
I've always been in favor of having a hologram on our currency. It seems to be an effective way to curb counterfitting. Without a change of the shape and surface area of the bill (ie. a clear patch with a hologram), just changing the colors on a bill is more of a nuisance than a deterrent.
While surfing around at work during some downtime and all the sudden you land on a questionable site and BAM a big vagina pops on your screen for 15 seconds...
You begin freaking out but that doesn't compare to the reaction your boss is going to have when he walks by...
Interesting that one of the hottest hobbies, took this long to make a slashdot discussion. Modding cars is become such a big thing amongst people with all types of cars. From Neon's to bimmers, people do pretty cool thing to enhance the appearance and performance of their cars. Not all look, perform or sound too hot, but some can be better than any factory car you can get.
Its also a great way to actually learn about how cars are made and produced.
I purchased a Xerox printer summer 2001 and the ink just ran out on me ( havent used it in 6 months however). Went to the original store of purchase, Compusa, to be ink... no good. They did not sell any xerox ink. So, I went online, saw that the Xerox ink was $30.00, saw the generic was $3.00. Which do you think I bought?
Like a very annoying email service. Doesnt this kill speed advantages of email? I would hate to send an email out, and have to go through more red tape so the recipeint can receive their email. The sender would be doing all the work to help solve the recipients spam problem.
What about the mass emails I like to receive, such as newsletters?
Being fresh out of college, we used linked lists like they were going out of style. When I began work, I found out they were! Using an STL template and container serves as a good replacement for linked lists and other annoying data structures. I rarely use arrays anymore, I would rather use a vector or map. my personal preference, maybe because I hated linked lists and malloc arrays we exhaustively used in college.
Sanskrit? You're majoring in a 5,00 year old dead language? Hmmm... Latin, best I can do. Phys Ed? Get out of here. I mean, no, really get out of here.
Have always been apart of competition. Whether its on the football field, basketball court or even the battlefield, their will be some people who are more vocal than others. And yes, some will have a complete disregard for the other person's feelings.
What Big Three has to realize is that their competitors, mainly Japanese car makers, are destroying them. Honda, Nissan and Mazda are cranking out cars with goobles of horsepower, leaving Detroit in the dust, literarly. The Japanese are feeding our love for big things, such as horsepower, which translates into quicker cars. I recently went car searching and did not look at one american car. Nothing in terms of performance and styling caught my eye from the American car market. I quick glance at any car ratings guide, and you'll rarely find an American made car in the top of its class...
SUV's however, I would not buy anything either than an American made model (Have owned 3 Jeeps, great SUV's). American's are leaders in this market (except for the british Land Rovers).
Ironic that a country who should be moving away from its dependency on foreigh oil has two of its leading automakers scrap electric cars and builds better gas guzzling SUV's than anyone else.
In the case of HS, I was a popular kid (modesty coming up...), but when I chose to study CSI in college, became a geek. But at that time in my life I really started caring less and less because I knew that studying alot and chilling with the social derilects of society would help me out in the post-college life. Low and behold, I am doing exactly what I wanted to do, making good money and having fun. So much for those people working as telemarketers who were "cool" in college.
One day or another, because of the field we chose, we will turn into nerds.
I signed up for the NY State "Do Not Call" registry, and it has been a success. I rarely receive telemarketing calls and when I do I love saying something like...
"Excuse me, I am on the Do Not Call list and if you continue calling this number, I will be forced to contact the proper authorities who will prosecute your company to the fullest extent of the law".
Might not make a whole lot of sense, but its fun to hear the scared telemarketers apologize and hang up.
For companies that have government contracts and clearances, a credit check is done to make sure you are not in financial trouble and willing to sell US secrets to make loot.
Ok, how would one go about using a "true user friendly Linux distro"? They have to either: Install it with another mainstream OS (such as Windows) or just have linux running. Explain to someone who thinks that "AOL *is* the internet" how to install linux. They would probably just give up and never give linux another thought. For the spread of Linux in the non-geek world and essentially for its survival in mainstream computing, Linux distros must become more user friendly in its installation, plain and simple. Unless the distro comes pre-installed, how is one going to use it without installing it?
"I know that at some time you've installed an application on Windows.. Double click, click next three times voila --- icon on desktop = installed program. If they're serious about having a true user friendly Linux distro that's where they're going to have to be."
Comparing an OS to a program that can be installed in a few clicks is incorrect. Maybe I'm confused by your argument, but please clarify this comparison.

Yep, thats alot better! I saw that somewhere, but could not remember it.

Vaccuuming is a great exercise. For us fat, lazy computer geeks, we can actually benefit from doing it.
I'm serious on this one..

Time magazine put a review on their website, that supposedly spoils the ending.

Considering I still get about 80 spams a day, I'm not that impressed with AOL's efforts.

Here is what I did once...
I posted on a website how I scammed a large company.
Then I got arrested.

I work for a defense company that makes software for the Navy and we use Red Hat 6.2.
You mean to tell me someone wrote a book that can give better options than "+" and "-"?

I'm a software engineer for a company that makes software for the US Navy and we have the pleasure of writing all our code on linux.
Uncle Sam loves linux!
