I have been told by those who know that sort of thing that advertisers are investigating commercials of different lengths. They all look the same while zooming by on the Tivo though.
You've got it. If you want to see it in action check out The Daily Show on Comedy Central. They've got the $FUNNY_BIT brought to you by $SPONSOR after the first segment. It often has the sponsors name/logo in frame for the whole bit so you can't miss it.
It's an old advertising trick. If it's annoying you will remember it. The guy who came up with the Anacin ads in the 50s turned annoying ads into a staple of TV advertising.
Gnome really does care if it's on a network drive or not. For example, I mount my home directories via NFS. To get preview icons I had to enable it in preferences. I suspect there may be other issues opening things from a network filesystem of any sort may be related to security or performance.
It really depends. At work we've got this goofy lock down configuration that does little more then make the machine act badly. If I don't reboot it every couple of days it gets slow and things don't work. If you work at a place where the pointy hairs make technical decisions like "lets buy machines with CD burners but make sure they're disabled in the registry". Then they hire clueless "tech" people to implement their hair-brained ideas. Then, yes, you get unstable machines. They need reboots.
It's all about the defaults. Windows doesn't like them changed.
I originally thought the GBP would look like crap because the GBA images are really small. I was very suprised at how well it worked. They have some very clever engineers at Nintendo.
Hit it right on the head. I've suffered chemical depression all my life as has much of my family. It's strange feeling completely down, depressed, defeated and not being able to put your finger on why.
I would probably choose Deep Brain Stimulation over Effexor XR. The side effects can be pretty unplesant. Especially if you miss a dose.
For those who have never had to deal with severe depression. Antidepressants don't make you happy. They let you feel normal.
Now, now. My N-Gage QD is the best phone I've had. Lousy game machine but a great phone. It runs Opera well and the form factor is really nice for sending SMSs.
It used to be that the FCC was responsible for making sure the PUBLIC frequencies were used for the public good. Now, they are industry and special interest group lapdogs.
Many Christians (evangelicals in particular) consider RFID implants to be the Number of the Beast. Mandating them puts you in the same bin as abortion doctors with many of them.
Actually, I do remember seeing the original Gone in 60 Seconds in the theater. All I remember is that a lot of cars got smashed and it had Mark Hammil. It did suprise me when they made a remake.
Does anyone know what the current record for running VM under VM is? It used to be somewhere around 20 (I think) but, that was a long time ago. BTW that is you have a real machine and install VM on it. Then, you bring up a virtual machine and install VM on that. Repeat until until you run out of resources (or get bored).
Ahh yes. I learned client/server programming in VM/CMS using REXX. You could do some neat stuff if you had wakeup installed (I think it was in the ISPF package). I had a machine that could respond to batch input and smsgs.

Boy did that work. I still remember them well.
I'll bet they wouldn't sell Jim any insurance though. He was always wrestling half drugged animals and stapling things to their ears.

I know. It was old when I was a kid (I'm 44 now).
It'll be running until owls are extinct or Tootsie Pops are illegal.

This is why I run OS X and Linux at home.
So it's like crossing the Knights Who Say Ni! with Elmer Fudd?

Yup, that's the one. It's like talking on a Blackberry.
Excellent idea. Unfortunatly, it won't happen in the USA any time soon.

You would think so. It seems the Constitution is mostly ignored these days.
Do you have anyone who used to live in a house of straw or sticks living with you?
Yea, that was it. I never saw that one. Man, that was a long time ago.
I think we may be around the same age.
I believe that Mark Hammil would like to forget it too. Wasn't that his first film after Star Wars?

...that the FCC has outlived it's usefulness and needs to go?
Have your doctor check your medication dosage. I don't think it's working right now.

Hush, my eyes are still burning.
