Find 4 friends, buy a family pack. 4 of my friends at school are doing the same. Thus, $40 apiece.
yeah yeah yeah.. we're not "family", but we live on the same damn floor, so whatever. My department eventually gets a license and I get it for free 2-3 months later. But I'm happy to pay 40 for it right away.

Disclaimer: I switched to textmate about 4 months ago and am an absolutely avid fan, more so than even the most rabbid of mac fanboys (and I own a macbook, so I know this species too).
The snippets, IMHO, are the best thing ever. Honestly, my productivity has shot through the roof because creating simple things like for loops takes about 8-12 key hits to get all the infrastructure done, and with all the proper brackets and semicolons all perfectly placed and formatted. I shit you not when I say that this has eliminated 90% of my debug problems.
plus you can essentially make anything a snippet, from simply putting out your details (say an entire address formatted) and the like. Totally understands and formats as per a given document type.
The book reviewed here is pretty sweet too, and I learned a few things that I wasn't aware existed. Its worth buying as well simply to use as a good reference material.
I defnitely recommend trying this as shareware for at least a few weeks.
I love safari and gladly use it over any other browser. However, since 10.4.5+, I have noticed that (as a whole) there appears to be an inability of OS X to free RAM up as efficiently as it used to. Programs like Safari, after many hours of usage, will remain as a HUGE RAM/virtual memory sink. I constantly quit Safari to try and alleviate/fix this.
But what seems to happen is that the process "kernal task" keeps eating up more and more ram even after Safari is shut down. After a couple days of usage, I feel the need for a restart just to flush out this annoyance.
Sure, in the grand scheme of things, It's only a minor annoyance, but it is definitely noticeable and something I hope is dealt with when 10.5 comes out.
The scholars for 9/11 truthbelieve this is no mere coincidence. Through analysis of the physics, it has been concluded that WTC7 fell in a manner not consistent with a "pancake" theory.
They are asking for full access to the evidence (photos, video, etc) that NIST used in their report to either support or rebut these claims. So even if you think they are "conspiracy nuts", the release of these documents would prove them wrong... so do it. Sign the petition:)
Yes, I expect to be vehemently attacked. But whatever. What good is karma if you can't speak your true beliefs!
Before the flack comes. Yes, as we currently define "energy", there is no way to reverse entropy. It's all based on assumptions, and they may not always be correct.
No really, I'm am really curious. I admit, I wear a tin-foiled hat with pride, but I've recieved some pretty BS responses from banks when asked this question.
The worst response? "You need it on your account for your protection". Oh really? Until, I don't know, 1 of the 100 forms my SSN is one gets scanned and posted somewhere on the internet.
And for those that think it can't happen, some dipshit made a family tree of all of my family across the country and posted it on the internet... 1 out of 10 (out of ~600 people... this tree goes back pretty far) has a SSN posted and it's now in google's cache.
So I ask again... why is a SSN required for a bank account? What about those people withouth SSNs?
argue with me as you will, the federal reserve (though it has a token appointment to it's head position) is a private company

have you even looked for more than 5 seconds before you made your decision? NO.
Live in whatever world you want man... and laugh at people like myself... but i'll be fine when the US hits runaway inflation the likes of a Chile or post WWII Germany
The funniest part of all is the cashier was Technically correct.
America hasn't has a real currency since leaving the gold standard (1933) and silver standard (1970-71 right?). It's a shame to realize that the largest counterfeit agency is still the federal reserve (which by the way is a private company and NOT a true part of the federal government... much like federal express is not a government agency). But I digress.
I will shameless promote REAL currencies backed by gold and silver, in hopes that some of you protect yourself from the inevitable dollar crash (all fiat currency crashes eventually due to debasement/inflation)
2nd amendment A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
hmm, the right of the people... sounds like individuals to me.
14 Section. 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
notice the word "and" and don't bother tearing about arguments made by the website i referenced, because you haven't even bothered to quote court cases that show your point of view. Read the court case Colgate v. Harvey and then come back.
Question: Who granted authority to the US government? Answer: We the People.
It's true, you can just burn the whole damn US constitution if we wanted to... but does that mean there would be no more unalienable rights? Does your freedom of speech only exist because of the first article of the Bill of Rights? NO. It is a right you were BORN WITH. For someone to be able to take that away from you means that you must be subordinate to them. We the people created the damn government.
Read the declaration of independance and then argue your point again.
right, you can throw out all the amendments and burn the constitution, but that doesn't mean you no longer have the freedom of speech.
If the government passed an amendment saying you couldn't urinate, would you just hold it and burst? No, because your a human being. You have unalienable rights that are not granted to you by a government. They are given to you from a higher source.
Not to troll, but if the 1st Amendment isn't an Amendment, then why it called an Amendment?
because people just started calling them that. I mean, it makes sense doesn't it? It was after the constitution was done with.
And here is a little thought process for you. We made the government correct? So therefore, we gave it power. It cannot have more power than we orignally had because we can't give the government what we didn't possess at one point. It's a violation of the basic laws of nature.
So now you're telling me that these amendments GIVE me rights? So we gave congress the authority to give us back our rights?
You can repeal the first amendment, but that doesn't mean that freedom of speech is unlawful. Hell, throw away the first 10 amendments, I'll still use freedom of speech. Sure, I'll get arrested, but they can't stop me from using my unalienable rights (not unless they kill me).
Most people are unaware of the fact that there are 2 types of citizenship... US and State, and it makes a HELL of a lot of difference to understand the distinction
Also, the first 10 articles of the Bill or Rights are NOT amendments, they are declatory articles as stated in the preamble of the Bill of Rights.
"The conventions of a number of the States having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best insure the beneficent ends of its institution. "
So, just like the first amendment can't be altered or abolished, the 2nd, 5th, 9th, or 10th can't either. None of them can! They are not rights granted to you by a government, but rights that you were born with as a human being.
Get learned people http://www.constitution.org/
I'm not trolling, hating, or being irritable... I'm just sick of hearing pundits, coworkers, and friends spout off what the constitution says... when they haven't even read the thing!
Not completely off topic, but this is totally legit, if these 2 claim priveleges under the US constitution as US citizens.
Very few people realize the difference between State Citizenship (commonly referred to as being a US national) and US citizenship.
I'll cut to the chase, but the main difference is that a US national has rights guaranteed and protected by the constitution, while a US citizen has priveleges granted to them by the federal government. Like every privelege, it can be revoked at any time.
The funny thing is, I remember a SNL skit by christopher walkin where he made about having dual citizenship, US and florida. At the time I couldn't stop laughing...
I misread the headline at first... I thought it said 230 mph electric chair . My first thought was Holy shit, it'll be able to catch me on the highway. How clever of them.
Then I had the ahhhh moment.
I need some more coffee... or more sleep, whichever comes first.

you're right. I mean that is a much more likely scenario than, say, printing money out of thin air?

in democracy, everything can be voted on... so your rights are there only at the desire of the majority.
in a republic, your property can't be even brought up to a vote.
example
democracy. 100 people vote to take the land of 10 wealthy people, to spread it around for the utility of all.
republic. 100 people want to vote to take the land of 10 wealthy people, but can't, because it's not in their juristidiction.
Summary, in democracy, all resources and property are everyones and thus under the juristidiction to vote on. In a republic, it's not.
Please mod parent up. For details, please confer with article 4 section 4 of a little document I like to call "the US constitution"

we have a constitutional republic, it just turns out we've turned it into a democracy... aka the tyranny of the majority.
