"Once we realize that drugs are going to continue to be sold we have to re-evaluate our views. Is it the right of the adult individual to consume drugs if he so chooses? Personally (although I think drugs are bad) I think that it is his/her choice"
Ok, Fine by me as long as you realize then that I have the right to protect myself and my property with deadly weapons when the crazied druggie comes after it or me or mine.
For this is his RIGHT and thats MY RIGHT.
Now how fscking smart is your mantra? Pretty lamo.
I would run out of ammo pretty fast when the drug gates are open. Most Americans can't even control their fscking mouths and eat themselves to obseity or keep screwing men with aids til they die so what makes you think they will do drugs so wisely?
"It's the drug laws that create the situation you are describing, not the drugs themselves. "
Yeah sure. Just like its the fat that makes fatasses fat and not their fscking gob of a mouth that sucks everything in sight.
Its the fat that makes heads like yours a fathead , fathead.
Jeez this whole board is a bunch of loser doper assholes. Why don't you all go find some real trash , burn your brains out and get out of the way for Normal People.
Whine whine whine. You want to whine for your drugs then whine for someone to help when your burned out then whine it was the drugs fault and not yours. Whiners...slashdot has a glut.
No wonder all the jobs are going offshore. All the tweetyheaded geek/nerds are druggies and can't find their fingers to put on the kb but keep hitting it with their heads. Bang ouch,bang ouch...
Your a stupid shit. You maybe once watched 'Deliverance' and think you know something about rural areas.
Come your ass around the wrong 'rural area' sniffing for drugs and you may be running home with it in your paws.
Not everyone in a 'rural area' is as dumb or stupid as the jerks in the city.
Judging by the responses on this thread mostly I see dumb ass white trash schmoozing about dope and thinking its cool. Your a fscking idiot. You deserve to burn your wasted brain matter to toast.
Idiots do dope. Stupid idiots brag on doing dope. Stupid idiot wannabe dopers are too stupid to do more than make up shit.
Thank Deity they have cities for dickwads like this.
I don't remember the exact numbers but I think you can figure that one bushel of corn will produce about 1 gal of almost 200 proof moonshine IF you use effecient method like 'fractionating column constant flow stills' and a good corn like Homcomb Profilic White. I always thought that sweet corn hybrids that have far more sugar would make a larger quantity however in moonshine thats not always the goal as it would be in ethanol for other uses.
You do have to malt it though(let some sprout) , or at least they did for whiskey. Don't know about ethanol for autos but you still have to get the stuff working and I thought that malt did that.
The old pot still is favored because it creates lots of flavor type contaminates that lend character (and maybe headaches). Myself I always preferred the straight white non aged stuff when I was a little un.
Now drugs(meth,crack and pot) have doomed all the moonshiners of the past.
I must tell you that it is really FICTION! ' His latest titled 'Quicksilver? We now know that mercury is a fast introduction to death. Drinking it or playing with it was NOT A GOOD IDEA!!!
You need to 'get away' from viewing those REALITY tv shows and into the real world.
Most of what you say is basic spinned and doctored new media ouput.
If you were out here in the real world you would see that its pretty much wrong(your posted items).
'Out here' the medical industry is killing us. Lack of real jobs is forcing more and more onto welfare which will drain the treasury yet more. Most now use the ER rooms as care for they have no other means. Our culture is sliding into the borders of Sodom and Gommorah. Most Americans realize the American Dream IS now just a dream.
Support for corporate America has reached the level of toilet scum. Small businesses are hanging by threads.
Outsouring = death on a stick, due to lack of meeting the qualifiers of real Free Trade and obtaining of none of its benefits.
'THEY" did not give us CTRL-ALT-DEL for that was the contribution of IBM as lately heralded in the press when he left IBM from RTP in N. Carolina.
Also the mouse they stole was IIRC from a Xerox Parc project. In IBM we were using graphic pads and wands with a button on the end to activate light sceen hot spots and such. We did have 'windows' before they were made public on the IBM3270PC (again IIRC-been a while). Gui's were all over the place. MSFT IMO can't claim credit for very much.
Then the current usage is more like HAOX3R or some such geekspeak BUT not the revered(by many) Hacker wizard. HaCx0red for instance.
Yet as I think on it a HACK is a quick, down and dirty, usually no documentation comments and not to be kept but just a fast 'workaround'.
"Yeah it was failing in so and so module and I did a quick hack on it for now." A permament resolution would not be a "hack" if you were a resolute programmer.
The architecture of the OS you are running your Assmebly Program on should have no bearing on the code of the program you are creating. It may be a standalone piece of work/code. It may run on windoze and then you have to have packaging and such for that but the machine language aspect is OS independent unless you wish to make it dependent.
That was my point. Not that a Linux based Assembler can't do what it wishes.
If one is therefore inhibited by the OS that the Assembler prog is running on then I would say that as a true learning tool is its impacted as to its value. It should shed then all semblence of adherence to a particuliar OS.
I thought the discussion centered around LEARNING and not IMPLEMENTATION.
It appears that many here are not versed at all in machine language and a lot of comment is misguided and keeps revolving back to the OS when its really dependent on the PROCESSOR and should be OS free.
This is MACHINE language and is dictated by the processor language set. Not by something called Linux.
Perhaps it would be more precise to infer that Linux MAY create a program that is an ASSEMBLER and not put in all the mnemonics for the real hardware instruction set.
I was an IBM code junky as worked on the nucleus for many years. All in BAL(basic assembler language).
If the ASM Program does not faithfully and fully implement all the mnemoics for he processor hardware language set then its flawed IMO. What would it do that?
Now as to implementing macros and such I can see the differences yet one does not have to use macros.
Why I often wondered was the PC assembler prograrm by MSFT or IBM called the Macro Assembler? But I did use it way back there and still have it squirreled away somewhere.
Most know that real hackors(not hackers) who hack out cracks for various propietary products(Phrozen Crew et.al. ) are absolutel asm/machine language wizards and they have some very nice tools available to crack code. Also some nice tutorials, or at least used to.
They were not using astronauts but doing a multicultural PR gameshow. Lives were lost and the management was to blame for this stupidity.
Most of the real trained astronauts realized this and spoke out later. Most should have been very angry.
We were doing highschool kitbox experiments up there instead of pushing the frontiers.
I worked in Huntsville in the early days. Everyone I knew that had background knew immediately that the tile areas were at fault. NASA knew it also but put up the lame excuses so the PR could continue.
O'Keefe should be working as a greeter at Walmart. An accountant bean counter should not be mading these decisions. I hope he never gets a full nights sleep the rest of his life.
I like you style Coward. Some words need saying about the pussy generation.
They will be the ones standing in the checkout lines while their wifes use the plastic or write the checks. They will be ones interviewed on TV and stand there like a silent dork while their wife speaks for them and everyone else on the planet.
If their testicles have a charge once in a marriage then they will have another little silent dork thats if the metal has eroded their meager pair of synapses.
Fred the Moron who clicks on the attachment and starts the chain of spam should be flung into the 'Lake of Fire' for being such a stupid asshole. His girlfriend who got spammed as a result should cut off sex to him for the rest of his natural lifespan.
Fred is the problem. The world must be loaded with Freds. My intrusion detectors are going wild from MyDoom thanks to Fred The Moron.
Never received one of these types of anti-virus spam in my mailboxes.
I do receive hundreds of spam per day all because of he yahoo-idiots at Yahoo who conviently changed everyones preferences to SEND ME EVERY PIECE OF SPAM YOU POSSIBLY CAN TO MY PRIVATE EMAIL THAT I REGISTER ON YAHOO WITH.
And then Yahoo lets bulk mail spam even the Yahoo mailbox until it fills and then they bitch about my Yahoo mailbox being full!!!!
These people are dangerous to all lifeforms.
I once had nice clean mailboxes. After using Yahoo I spend a lot of time cleaning up the result of a real spammer(yahoo and associates).
And the reason there is a Toyota plant in Scott County Kentucky was because of a stupid asshole Kentucky Governor named Martha Layne Collins who bled Kentucky dry , suspended taxes and gave our tax dollars to the Japanese to build it here and then not very many Kentuckians ended up getting jobs there after all.
It blew away the real estate market, schoolteachers were required to work on weekends tutoring the jap brats. It was a hatchet job.
The the sobs bought the public golf course there so they could play golf and impress all their buddies for it costs 10s of thousands to even join a golf course in Japan.
It was a farce. I am glad the Japenese are back to eating fish heads and suffering. Now we won't be tripping over them running all over the landscape snapping cameras and posing.
People are buying at Walmart because they can't afford to shop elsewhere dickwad!!
The rich still shop where they wish but the lower and now more of the middle class have to buy the cheap tawdry Chinee garbage because we don't produce this stuff anymore DICKWAD!!!!
They have to live and eat and do so on a very reduced buget DICKWAD so they HAVE to shop at shitholes like Walmart , DICKWAD!!
I never buy CHICOM garbage avoid shitholes like Walmart because I am an American I prefer to buy American products,,,,ur still a DICKWAD BTW!!!
Lots of bs so I will try for a REAL answer to the quetion.
I too am on dialup and slow(33.6 usually) so having had DirecTV here in the country I asked my friend down the road who sells it and he let me play with it in his store. I am a programmer and was/am an electronics tech also plus a ham operators.
DirecWay will cost approx $200 for install. Its a 65lb dish and not at all like the DirecTV disk. Its advisable to NOT use DirecWay for both TV and Net usage. If one dies then both are dead. Better to keep the DirecTV and just add a new ant, additional coax and the new (DW6000)box. Its connected via a nic card and Cat 5 cable. No usb on the 6000. You then use a wireless or wired router to spin off to other desktops. Easy I believe. His was USB and slower.
Now the IP is in the 10.xx.xx.xx Class A and IANA and you can't do a trace route on it for shit. So you have , IMO, some real protection against virii and so forth. Also against hackers but its not usable for games. The UPLOAD speed was bad(36 or so) but DOWNLOAD was very fast(746 or so). Short interactive responses were of course very slow but usuable for web surfing. When it gets a large download then it excells. So the ping times are of course not that good . I got 1250 ms.
Checking it thru DSLREPORTS gave me those figures.
There is also FAP(Fair Access Policy) which you can run into if you exceed certain bandwidth usages of a certain time. This is too keep the bandwidth more available for those who aren't Kazaa users or bandwidth hogs.
Cost per month is about $59.99. Hardware was quoted to me at $399. Then $200 for install comes to $600. Some ask a total of $800 but thats shoppable. This was small town USA.
I could install it but they said then you have a problem with them not standing behind YOUR work. He said if they did it they wanted to be sure it was ok. They know me and know I could do it but they like to make a living too. Your choice but it looks doable for a good techie type. Aiming may be harder. If you get into a unsolvable problem then they may charge the hell out of you for that.
It has pros and cons. You can't do a website. Not sure if the IP is fixed but it really doesn't matter then due to the above.
I thought to get it but having second thoughts now. I am sometimes instead using my Kyocera 7135 on Verizon 3G to connect. Its faster than dialup. Unlimited 'Express Network(now called HotSynce)' costs $50 / month and you need at least 2 bars on the antenna signal to work ok. More the better. If a tower is local its nice but it has a tendency to go 'dormant' and has a latency due to this also some bugs still being worked out.
Best , hands down, is cable or DSL of course. I can get neither. I would like to have both dialup and DirecWay if I have no other choices. Rain comes along satellite goes byebye for awhile.
Maybe your right about the export of AG but around here the farmers are 'rolling in it'. Buying new tractors, upgrading, lots of profit last year so they are moving on up.
I thought last year that foreign countries crops were bad and this fueled the surge in demand for US crops(grain mostly I speak of).
Anyway my neighbor just bought two slightly used Fords for about $30,xxx more or less apiece. This is in addition to what he already has. 5 plus a fleet of tractor trailers , planters , fert spreaders , spray coupes and so forth.
He wears worn clothes, drives a junky little pickup but seems to be doing very well. His wife left him but thats quite normal in farming these days.
I am helping him get into GPS a little at a time. Right now light bars and tracking.
OT somewhat but thats what I see around here. MidCentral South. Three crop two year rotation, corn,wheat,beans.

Actually not a very wise thing to do with hostile programmer geeks walking around.
What the hell is their belief? That it gives them some kind of crazy karma? It looks rather inane to me.
