If you have or can get the money through loans/grants/scholarships, go now. State schools are always cheaper than private, but the differences in the education are a topic for another question. If you're particularly good at something, say drawing or coding, look for a summer job or internship or something along those lines. Even if you wait until spring to matriculate, do it now while you can still get money from the previously mentioned sources.
Thank you thank you thank you. More than 7/8 down the page before anyone mentioned anything about student government.
Nothing works better at smaller schools than SGA (proof).
Also, find students who are in close with the network people. There are always students serving as interns or manning some sort of help desk. They can reason with those whom you cannot.
And Hasbro clearly has no rights to the code. The only have rights to the name of the game and the board and the way the game is played. They also have rights to the domain in the event he gives up without a fight (likely).
He is under no obligation to give them any code.
It'd be like some company that makes ink cartridges trying to sue another company that figured out how to make the same ink cartridges, only more efficient and cheaper, and that first company tries to sue to get that design...oh, wait. That already happened that that first company got spanked in court, IIRC.
I would think that changing the port of the tracker to 80 or 21 would make a lot of difference for most ISPs, lest they be running PacketShaper or an equivalent.
Unfortunately, a lot of ISPs block inbound communications on port 80 and other significant (#1024) ports outright to keep people from hosting their own servers off of their connections.
I can't wait until a case arises that cites this law and sets a precedent that can be applied to all other forms of media, including television, movies, and music. After all, they are forms of entertainment that often show violence, right? They could possibly show/tell their audiences how to kill people in new and creative ways.
This law needs opposition and a counter-law, or an industry-wide EULA (people do read those, right?) amendment that says something to the effect of "we believe that violence belongs only in video games. we cannot be responsible for the actions of those who play our video games." Running with Scissors did that for the Postal series of games, and they are the most violent games that I have ever played.
I've never found the single button mouse to be annoying. I started on Macs back in the day, and have since moved onto PCs.
The one place I know that a two-button mouse would be better on a Mac is gaming. That second, third, fourth, fifth, and wheel buttons really come in handy then.
Something is very fishy about this organization. Could it be some sort of red herring? The groupers might need a trout slap if things go musky. For now, we'll just perch and watch.
Desicanuk seems to, from his testimony, not know enough about such legal matters to even try to be so weasily. You or I might attempt to try something like that, but it would come back to bite us in the ass.
This was an honest mistake. He wants to get over it. He didn't realize what he did was wrong. There is no sneaky dishonesty. The only thing he did wrong was disobey a click-through NDA.
The majority of the past NukemLANs have been held at Seneca Valley HS in PA, right around Cranberry/Harmony/Zelionople. We've never had any problems. Watch out, though, don't expect to have Internet access. We do, but when we need patches, we have to otherway it a lot.
Where does rap/hip-hop have a place in video gaming? Where is that music heard? IN FOOTBALL GAMES. IN *some* DRIVING GAMES. Surprise, surprise, that's it.
You don't see the Master Chief getting jiggy with it. You don't see the Price of Persia losin' his mind up in here. Lara Croft may take off all her clothes when it gets hot in here, but I guarantee you if Nelly tried to party it up in her, she'd embed an ounce of lead in the wall behind Nelly's formerly living body.
Andrew WK was awesome last year. The man performed in a fucking wheelchair. That's just a part of what makes him so kickass.
Don't give me this Snoop Dogg shit, keep him in movies and music where he belongs.
A lot of college profs own one-man shops. Every now and then they'll offer jobs to outstanding students for a summer. It's a great way to get into the business.
PC Torque has about the best customer service in the laptop industry. They sell both Sager and Acer notebooks. I got a Sager 5680 from them a year ago and it has been the most solid machine I've ever owned (and I've owned A LOT of machines, from Macs to store-boughts to homebrew). You aren't going to find a better place to discuss laptops than NotebookForums.com.
Competing students will do anything to screw over each other. It's a part of being in school: everyone wants to show THEY are the best. Whether or not they choose to do it by earnest and honest means is question of moral fiber.
A sysadmin at such an institution must act as if every student on campus is the most untrustworthy son-of-a-bitch that ever walked the earth- even his own Intern. It's the only way to make sure that everyone is on even ground.

Blogger is full of this shit, too.
Just keep hitting "Next Blog" and you'll find a ton of blogs set up for advertising, just like those.
Keep your grubby laws off my Internet.

And Microsoft wouldn't have had a patch out if iTMS was theirs for another six months.

Actually, women are the root of all evil.
We know that women like two things, your time and your money,
therefore...
women = time * money
Now time equals money, so
women = money * money
Money is the root of all evil, so
money = sqrt(evil)
By squaring both sides of the equation,
money ^ 2 = evil
Now go back to the equation
women = money * money
See where I'm headed?
women = money ^ 2 = evil
I hope my female friend doesn't look over here...STOP LOOKING AT THIS! THIS ISN'T MEANT FOR YOU! OW!
Biggest thing I see:
Do you want to exit? OK. || CANCEL.
Don't let your users figure out what it means.
Do you want to exit? YES. || NO.
Make your dialogs logical questions with logical answers.

Text only, eh? To the multitudes, I present two functions, base64_encode and base64_decode.
:-p
Email is still all text and probably always will be
And It Shall Never End. We have opened a can of worms; a Pandora's box that can never be closed, no matter how strict the law gets.

Okay, let's discuss.

Just remember:
:-D
Is this good for the company?
*checks date*
C'mon guys, It's not April 1st...
Why Do Companies Commit Financial Suicide!?!?!
I got mine and promptly put it towards my cable internet connection bill for the month. Heh, it's my new source of music.

Score another for our side!
One down, 1,356 to go!
No networked computer is a safe computer.
Perhaps someone should just leave their incredibly insecure computer plugged into an insecure network.
It worked something like that for the leaked HL2 code, did it not?
Wow, I hope that was sarcasm.
