I have analog, because I refuse to pay extra per device I hook up to the cable stream. I have a TV upstairs, a TV in the living room, a PC in the living room, and a TV and a PC in the basement! No WAY I'm buying 6 recievers, and loosing the ability to change the channel on my PC!
I have lived in my new home in a middle-sized city for a year, and have had only one brief power outage, say about 15 seconds, in that time. I dont blame them either, we were having one heck of a wind storm!
No, but I am wiring up my house for those Slimp players in each room with overhead speakers in the ceilings. I want to have the slimp devices built flush into the wall next to the light switch.:)
And instead of trying to offer ala-cart, they will just decrease the cost of cable across the board. They have to realize that installing selective filters on millions of homes for JUST what that person whats to watch would be FAR more expensive than just lowering monthly costs by 1/2 or more. Get with it Comcast!
Because I have 121 Gigs of sorted MP3's at home, and I want access to ALL of them wherever I am in the house, on the road, and this way I can construct playlists @ home, and stream anything I want to my desk / device at any time!
The reason he would use IPX is that 99% of the vulnerabililties run over TCP/IP, and there will be no transport between your internet and the server (if you have TCP/IP turned off on the server) and will keep the script kiddies out!
PS IPX will also let you play nice starcraft games over local LAN, woot!
Timothy, why in the hell would this lame ass story get posted to slashdot??? What kind of a newbie question is 'where can I buy a laptop'... If you can't google for that, why bother signing on to slashdot? Please maybe filter what you actually post a little bit, it would be nice to have relevent topics on/. instead of this.
Ya know, your comment did give me an idea... Host a web site that gets paid for clicks... write a worm that spreads to millions of zombie machines.. that all log onto different web site's and click-through to the adds. Make millions, mwahaha!
Decency for decency's sake would be great, but the problem is that people flock to decency just for religious reason, and dont look at the logic behind it. Dont be a drone, think for yourself, you dont need God to tell you that killing people is bad.
.... is how fast you can get to good porn. And so far Google has everything beat hands down. Cmon, http://images.google.com, turn off mature filter, search for 'teen boobs' or something like that and BAM, you are all set! Lets see MS beat that!
I am sorry, the prior poster was pissing me off. The last thing I want to do all day is look at ANYONE's email. I dont care, and frankly its none of my business. The whole point is the RIGHT to. As a company, the email and the equipment is owned by the company, and the fact that the employee feels they have the right to use them for personal business is rediculous.
Bull, you can pick up the phone and call them FROM HOME! the point is that personal calls / emails / communications do not belong at work! THE CONVERSATION IS ABOUT EMAIL! I didnt say anything about toilets, jesus christ dude, I could give a crap about that. The whole point is that there should be a seperation between home life and work life. If you had an employee that YOU were paying spending 30% of their time penning emails home or sitting on the phone, you are saying you wouldnt care???? That you wouldnt audit their email and phone use to verify that they are spending a ton of time on personal business, then fire them for it???? Bullshit, when its YOUR MONEY, then come talk to me. Till then, you are just another peon.
Its troll's like you that get fired because they fuck off on 'THEIR' computer because they feel the company owe's them something, then because of their own inability to cope with a work environment and function in society, they go on welfare and make me pay more taxes to support their fucking lazy bum asses while you marry some fat chick and have 6 kids to sponge off every welfare program available. Its called COMPANY EMAIL for a reason, it belongs to the company. You perform company business over it, it is housed on the company email server, your damn right I own it!! And when you leave, I will keep it, move it to other people to handle your accounts, re-assign your address to your replacement, etc. Its NOT yours, you cant save it on your happy ass way out of the office when I fire you for fucking around all day, and you certainly wont get a good referral, I will tell them your a lazy fuck!
We were talking about a company. About doing things on company time. Get a clue you screwhead, you are purchasing a service from the phone company, but when you are an employee you are doing work FOR someone. And I put disclaimers in both a login script and the company handbook about email being the property of the company, any admin that doesnt probably shouldnt be an admin.
but to perform that communication you are using work equipment...work bandwidth...work software licenses owned by the company. There is no reason that you should think that any of this belongs to you. If you program software on your work computer during work time, it is owned by the company, not you, why would email be any different??
I have seen more 'innovative' GUI's now with those stupid MSN faces / icons! Make new ones, or at least steal someone else's, those looks so darn ghey!!!
I can feel the bitterness in your words... yes, I can see in your past, the lonely nights staring at your monitor after you had been fragged over... and over... and over again. It was just too much for you, the moving, the jumping, the shooting, and all at the same time!
Seriously tho, Quake3 was definitly badass and a ton of fun, and with all the maps available, as well as mods and add-ons, it was an amazing game!:)
And if the law is incorrect??? How bout old laws that are being bent to an un-meant purpose? how bout blatent stupidity? Sure, that is all jsut fine... hide behind the law so you dont have to use your brain. Thats the easy way out
The whole complaint isnt overselling, its the false advertising involved. If you have a bandwidth cap, or a transfer limit, speak up when I sign up so I know!

I think the main reason I would mod my x-box would be for a nekkid patch tho...

The mice are simply mental projections of our digital selves...

This was my business plan, and I have found it highly effective.

Step 1: Steal Underpants
Step 2:
Step 3: Profit!
Rince, and repeat.
How bout a tattoo on my forehead of a barcode? Maybe we could have a worldwide company named BEAST do this?
