Solution: Teach kids to fucking type. Everyone I know who can touch type chats in reasonably proper english. Those that hunt and peck? "Hey how r u 2nite" type gibberish. I'll admit that I myself was guilty of mangling the language at some point to get replies out faster...but once I got my 75 or 80wpm (or else i just grew up? Dunno) I got rid of that sort of expression.
Might not hold true for everyone (I don't expect that it does) but I mantain there is some sort of correlation there
In short, a debit card spends money you have already (in your checking account). A credit card spends someone elses money you'll have to pay back (by the end of the month if you want to avoid huge interest rates)
Seriously though, I've seen computers bought less than a month previously that ALREADY have their subscription expired due to the length of time the computer sat at the store---it's not surprising to think that even new-ish comptuers might not have either the patch or the virus defs
Because very few people listen to AM radio these days? (as compared to FM at any rate)
The only time I've turned the AM band on in my car since i got it (aside from accidentally) was to check traffic reports from a "tune to this band if these lights are flashing" sign
The databases used by my college (UNC-charlotte) basically turn off at a certain hour of the night and dont come back on till morning. This effectively renders the entire student portal useless as email, scheduling and other things are disabled. I was told by an IT student this was because the databases recorded changes each night...could this be similar to what you're talking about with AIX?
Can someone clarify on the knight's move problem? Being a comp engr student and taking some EE courses as well I think I know how to solve it, I just can't visualize it properly.
With the chess reference what I'm seeing in my head is a chessboard where all the edges of the squares have a 1Ohm resistor. If that's the case, a knight's move is an actual square, not an edge, that's the part that's confusing me
After having my first pint on tap with a buddy of mine , we looked at each other and said (nearly at the same time) "we cant go back to bottles..."
I personally don't much care for guinness draught out of the bottle..the nitro gizmo to me adds too much carbonation and the thing never settles down (does SOME if you pour it in a proper glass, but ouft of the bottle, never) the cans seem to be somewhat better (I like boddingtons out of a can) but still no contest, the nitro system leaves too much in the beer to compare to tap
Interesting story, however I'd guess that Rainbird is one of the very VERY few companies that can afford to tell Wally World to piss off. Indeed hundreds or thousands more might live and die by "accomodating"
In my experience apps in winXP DONT take the OS with it, they just crash out and leave you back at the desktop or whatever. The only instable 3rd party things that would kill the OS completely were shit drivers (Kyro II video cards notably)
Forgive what possibly may be something stupid that follows, I'm not comp sci (not even comp engr yet)
But, when an app crashes in XP, it crashes (as you might or might not know, depending on your work environment) and doesn't BSOD like in pre win2k days. Is it actually a "corruption of the OS state" that keeps the app from working properly again until reboot? I always thought that it was something to do with the app (not cleaning something corrupted out of its temp files or what have you) that would make it cease to function until a reboot, as windows would continue to be stable and other apps would work fine, just not that one
All of them? No, and my apologies, I wasn't trying to make it seem as if all athiests thought along those lines.
Most of the athiests I've spoken with hold the other line of belief though--that within certain bounds, right and wrong can change (and 'right' is usually 'right for me') with the situation
At least a Christian has (ideally, I realize this is not always so) a somewhat consistent set of morals to base their decisions on. Whether GWB is adhering to those is a different bowl of kibble, but my point is, guidlines, right?
I would be fairly scared (regardless of the fact that I'm a christian) of someone in power who had no set of beliefs other than "Do what you can rationalize to yourself", which strikes a string on most athiests I know.
oh Geebus if i could get Guinness on tap in my apartment...having that on tap for the first time (irish pub opened back home) almost made me quit drinking beer out of a bottle, the experience was so differnet (better...)

The part where passing a fully qualified white person up in favor of a minority regardless of the minority's level of qualification is discrimination
Most worms that have been written where [sic] created due to security problems Microsoft had patched months before the problem ever surfaced.
How, legally, could his father get fired over the actions of the son?
Yeah except you update your defs dont you?

Owned ;-) Didn't think of that scenario
Near original sound quality? I take it you don't mean just holding a mic up in the crowd (the method used by most minidisk owners I'm aquainted with)

I don't know either, other than the original infastructure was of a kind that would need to do that, and they didnt fele like upgrading.
I suspect he probably does it in the dead of night when there's less traffic

Just because YOU dont think you're doing anything wrong doesn't mean jack shit when there are laws on the books that say you are.

My services will be charged what I feel are appropriate, and not being forced to BID like a slave. Sheesh.
Principles like that are great until you NEED the money.

And if you have something on your property (ie killer rides or other cool things) worth being a serf for maybe i'll agree to that
Othewise I'll LEAVE. which is what you're free to do at a theme park if you dont like the RFID idea.
