I know a place, where there used to be a café, you could also eat some cheap food there, and that was convenient because there were no other place like it around. Then McDo bought it. Q: What do we do?
There is no 'other type of women'. Or if there is, it does'nt matter. We all (besides the genetically abnormal amongts us, like gays for instance) want a good, healthy looking woman. We can't do anything about it, we're programmed to do it genetically.
So how come it's a surprise they don't like the same kind of jobs.... ?
Maybe they just don't like the competitive aspect of most games. How does that translate to that job thing? Now, on the internet, no one knows you're a fucking dog. Right? So don't give me that stupid bullshit about peer pressure refraining girls from playing diablo 2. It's utter bollock.
Common myths you should forget: Women love to hear about other conquests
Really? Where do you get that from?
I know two really good players. They get LOTS of women. One lives in my area. He keeps talking about:
How big is dick is (but in a playful manner)
How he has had so many girl and that she (the one he's talking to) just does'nt compare.
For having seen him fuck girls (all types, beautiful, ugly, skinny, fat, intelligent, stupid, white, black...) in less than 2 hours of meeting them... well see where I'm getting
The other one always carry pictures of his ex girlfriends and show them to the girl he wants to pick up at some point in the conversation, basically implying that they looked better than her. I'm talking about a guy who picks up strippers, actresses, and who's fucked a girl who had just been engaged, who's had sex with two beautiful sisters at the same time, and countless others. No bullshit too, I've seen the pictures.
Sorry guys and girls, life is not like PC advocates would like you to believe. Life is not really fair.
And remember: women are not the pure and virginal innocent beings
Ah, I see we're resorting to 19th-century stereotypes to explain gender differences again. "Women derive their logic from emotions"? Come on, be realistic. How hard can it be to realize that people's emotional lives and their professional lives are not the same thing, and frequently are not even related?
The guy you're repying to talks from experience, and you're talking out of your ass. Yes, I'm flaming you, because what he's saying is COMPLETELY on par with MY experience of women.
Answer this: why are so many women into new age bullshit like ASTROLOGY?
Astrology is not logical, it's completely irrational, most men don't give a fuck about it, a lot of women crave it... even smart women do, though they just claim to just read their horscop for fun.
And even dumb men generally don't give a fuck a bout it.
If investors and customers have a boner when they enter the company building, well you're standing much better for that negociation. Some guys are so fucking retarded, they might just want to come back just to have a chance to see that girl. That's why they put a woman. (I've noticed that, the bigger the company, the closer to the central office, the cuter the receptionnists were.)
I'm offered a job in London that would more than double my salary in Paris.. and I would'nt be much better off considering taxes and cost of living. London is probably the most expensive city in city in the world, all considered. Housing is more expensive than NYC or the Valley, maybe just slightly less so than Tokyo or Hong Kong, and then you have a crappy weather (rain, rain, rain...), and on top of that goods are very expensive. I hear though that with a good tax advisor you can save a bundle, but the legality of it is doubtful, somehow. Paris has not so bad taxes compared to the rest of Europe. Actually, if you have kids you'll probably end up paying less income taxes than anywhere in western Europe. We have semi working ADSL (ok pricing, not very reliable and some tech. problems though), working cable connectivity in some areas (but with upload limitations that may make it extremely expensive but for the casual surfer). Also the Telecom industry is being forcefully opened -- the telecom regulation authority is making quite a good job of breaking the existing monopoly. The city life is getting better (10 years ago it was sad) with some good stuff happening, and there's a trend to make it more environment friendly (less cars). The weather is balanced, not too hot in summer, not too cold in winter, not too much rain (that's, compared to London or Amsterdam!). It's not as crowded as London or NYC. Crime is rather low. No drinking age (I would be extremely surprised if a 13 y.o. was denied buying a beer). Age of consent, 15. No fscking moron telling you what's good or bad (that's compared to the US). If you're into haschisch, it's not that great, still not yet liberated (despite having a few ministers in office publicly claiming to smoke or having smoked), personally I don't like it anyway. No stupid political sex scandals as in the UK, as nobody gives a fuck. Lots of easy female US tourists;) LOL Good food. I can't believe I forgot to mention that. Good cheap wine. Bad cheap beer. Doing business with french people is strange at times. I mostly work with foreigners, personally. It's not absolutely great, but it's really ok.
Sometimes network switches fry, that happened a month ago to me, I could'nt ssh into the server... so I had to go to the console... whose monitor and keyboard was multiplexed to save space.
Better solution than nuking Britain would be to distribute some crack with a serious toxin in it, and eliminate anyone who's been to more than one WWF event or been on Jerry Springer, then reassess.
I think this method is actually being applied in Britain, in Glasgow actually, albeit with Heroin. I guess they have patented it, too? But is there prior art?
I've never seen such a fascistic registration form; it requires your address, phone numberS, SMS email, and what else? It's ridiculous. So i you dont want to go through the hassle, use mine, login:noneofyourbusiness, password:whatever.
Anyway, that being said, this just shows how ridiculous software patents are. Too bad there isn't more references; I wonder if their patent predates HyperCard. Seems to me there was hyperlink in there, and it dates back from 1985. Is theirs older? If it is, it might just be too old enough anyway.
Nice comeback; it must feel much better to claim to be trolling than to admit that you're too stupid to know the difference between astrology and astronomy. :
XMPS is indeed released under the GPL. And it has indeed be linked to a proprietary Windows DLL. Now I invite you to notice who holds the copyrights to XMPS... Damien CHAVARRIA, mostly. Now please answer this question, on which page is this hack posted... Damien CHAVARRIA's, that's right. Now EXPLAIN ME WHERE THE PROBLEM IS, YOU DUMB ASS? He's used Wine code, X11 license; SDL, LGPL; XAnim, MIT license. So your point is.... ????
There is no ghostscript shared library on Unix (unlike Windows), kghostscript, like ghostview and gs runs ghostscript as an external program and drives it through stdin/stdout. It's a borderline case of "mere aggregation", which is allowed by the GPL...
Hell, I've paid for this windows shit. Specifically, I've overpaid about a dozen times, counting all those PCs at my office that are running Linux or OpenBSD and that had a mandatory Windows installation. So fuck it.
UEJF, one of the two groups who filed the suit against Yahoo, is a jewish students' association. I asked a few jewish friends of mine, and they shared my opinion on them: that they're a bunch of crybabies who is using their heritage in a sad, sad way -- to boost their future carrier probably, as most of them are law students, actually.
When I first learnt about the lawsuit being filed, I jumped to their website and expressed my disapproval and my concerns in a rather polite manner. In less than an hour, I was called a nazi, a collaborationist and fascist... Really nice people.
So I suggest that you all go to their forum and voice your opinion on this, here.
Oh maybe they've changed it back. I remember reading the license for 2.something, and it was GPL+exceptions, this was pointed out to me by a guy at Yggdrasil. They might have changed their mind since then, but I remember RMS making a comment about this not so long ago.
You probably meant the glibc is released under the LGPL. Actually, it's not anymore. It's under the GPL with exceptions, the exception being that you can use glibc in proprietary software ONLY if they are compiled with gcc. I guess this was changed in order to annoy non free compiler vendors who were "pirating" glibc.

I know a place, where there used to be a café, you could also eat some cheap food there, and that was convenient because there were no other place like it around. Then McDo bought it. Q: What do we do?
American beef can enter the country ... as long as it's grown (and provably so) without added hormons, just like European beef ... how is that unfair?
Of course, if they engage in predatory behavior, they will lose the right to sell Roquefort in the US. Pretty nifty, huh.
Predatory behaviors, like refusing to ingurgitate cancer inducing artificial hormon-grown beef? Yeah, we should really feel bad about that.
Asking an 18-year-old child what she wants to do With The Rest of Her Life is the stupidest of grounds upon which to found a study, in my opinion.
It's actually a very good question. Not many people might have an answer, but if they don't ask this question themselves, they're in trouble.
There is no 'other type of women'. Or if there is, it does'nt matter. We all (besides the genetically abnormal amongts us, like gays for instance) want a good, healthy looking woman. We can't do anything about it, we're programmed to do it genetically.
but the problem is if they don't want to because of accumulated social pressure.
Prove it! Damn, you're just an armchair psychologist. Can I see your degrees?
There was ZERO social pressure for me to start programming when I was 10. How would that be different for women.
So how come it's a surprise they don't like the same kind of jobs .... ?
