In my day, the prank was to give people the pizza guys number when you wanted to trick someone. At the very worst, someone ended up with a couple extra large pepperoni pies.
...I swear this thing has the most loyal cult following ever. For a product that didn't sell well (or as well as it should have), I'm still amazed that people are still modding these things up. Great works folks!
It's people like him that make people like my dad think this type of thing is "cool" or at the very least acceptable. Can you imagine a classroom full of these things?
Yep, CSUS graduate. I've been and applied to many job via the so-called "career center." I've been looking for work for 6 months about 5-6 days a week. I've applied to hundreds of positions with every company that I can think of, whether they are hiring or not.
Since I live with my s.o. who is still in school and have no money to my name, I can not afford the luxury of moving somewhere else to find work.
I have 20 or so job finder sites bookmarked that I check hourly. I buy a newspapers from time to time to look for jobs there. I've asked and talked to every single person that I can, letting them know that I'm in the market.
I am not whining, sir. I am stating facts as I face them.
Here in N. California, our provider (Village Media) doesn't send us letters. They simply just cap the bandwidth. I get about 150 KB/sec down and 100 KB/sec up. And as far as broadband goes, that isn't that great. However, since we are in an apt. complex, we don't even get a choice or say in what service we use.
I graduated Aug 2003 and have yet to find a tech job here in the Sacramento, Ca area. I've given up looking for a "career" and I'm now settling for a "job."
If you have a degree and think you're going to get a job because you might have a notion in your mind that the world owes you something, you're going to be in for a shock.
BA/S != Job.
Do you think I could get a job at my local McResteraunt?
"Sir, do you realize you're over qualified for this position?"
I concur. As an avid Atheist I'm not interested in whether this movie somehow ties into Christianity. I even find some the Bible stories interesting. I'm just looking for a movie with a good story - regardless of where it originated.
I read some of these books when I was younger and thought they had a good story and plot. I wasn't concerned with the religious connotations.
Even J.R.R. had mentioned that he got some of his ideas from the King Arthur lore.

Only 130lbs?! Looks like I'll be carrying the robot on my way out of the burning building.

I can already see RIAA lawyers scrambling to write up an amendment to thier copyright laws prohibiting the "temporary control of copyrighted material via the i-pod."
See, if they were using MS Windows, it would have crashed LONG ago and we wouldn't be talking about it today. We'd be talking about it years ago. And then again last year. And then again this... uh nevermind.
Gichin Funakoshi, the founder of Shotokan Karate and avid philosopher, always remarked that you should eat until you are no longer hungry, not until you are full. I've noticed that as an American, I always heard "clean your plate" and other such fat-inducing statements growing up. Thinking about how you feel as you eat is more important than how much is left on your plate.

Are you kidding? I started surfing the net 8 or 9 years ago on a 2400 baud modem.

I guess the question should be asked:
What is the statute of limitations of enforcing a patent when you know, and have known for years, that others are using it without your permission?
Where did you get those definitions? You just making stuff up now? You beeter have a Ph.D. in Geek! (or Nerd).
You have obviously never worked on an eMachine.
Nice processor, but the rest of it is so-so.
Yeah, fashion's a bitch.
Thank god I'm a geek.
So what's the problem with what he did? =]
