I dont consider you evil. Hey maybe one day we might be getting paid for doing something dealing with Hubble/NASA/something else cool that I rather give my tax dollars to instead of those lazy asses who expect me to work for them.
With google using these recruiting techniques, is it possible that they might have something big on the horizon where they need lots of quality people? I mean these new techniques require someone who can solve problems and code rather than just code. It also requires more that just click here to submit resume where they might get, lets sat 1,236,754 resumes where only 20 of them have the qualifications.
How about the air polution from the traffic on the expressways, or the polution from the steel mills in Indiana, Lake Michigan....anymore I can mention?
Taking a look at the computer industry today, everyone knows you have two different software types. Microsoft provides a product. But what Microsoft does not provide is the service that is needed by the smaller business. This is where the open source community should come in.
Provide the software to the small business for free but provide the service of giving what they want at a cost (installation, explanation, etc). People want service and the people who want good, reliable service will pay for it.
What does this mean to the community. The computer industry needs to provide people what they want instead of what the industry thinks people need. Translation: Become a service industry instead of a primary product based business. You can have the best product in the world but if you cannot back it up with great service, well, you fill in the rest.
The schools are not forcing children to say "under god". When I say the Pledge, I don't say "under god", I just pause.
If people would not f*ck with us, or mess with our interests, then we would not need to fight.
And if the leftist stopped being crazy we would not have to get oil from other countries, we could get it right here at home w/o the Alaskan wildlife thingie ( I can't remeber the name of it right now)
My next computer is going to be a Mac. I want try and be as MS Free as I can be. Before long they are going to say anything built with VB or ASP is fully owned by them.
Think about what the pledge, our flag, our veterans, and the USA stands for. Then think to yourself what the world would be like. Think about the freedoms we have, the rights that my grandparents, my father, my uncles, and my friedns fought in wars for. The gifts and help that we give to other countries. Are you not proud to be an American, if you are one? And if your country recieves any help from us, do you like that help? I am dam proud to be an American. I work for the largest veterans organization in the world, the American Legion, and I would like all of you who are against protecting what reflects America to tell them what you think.
I agree with G-funk. This is why. A loved one of yours need some immediate surgery and the only doctor around to do this type of surgery is in the movie theatre watching (Insert one of your favorite movies here) but he does not get the page/call until he leaves the theatre and your loved one is dead. You are also telling me that a doctor cannot live a normal life, like going to the movies. So tell me, what is more important then, jamming signals coming into theatres so things like this can happen, or putting up with the seat next to you vibrating for 5 seconds so the guy next to you can save a life.
In order to solve the problem, we have to eliminate the problem. This is how to eliminate the problem. If is a person is caught and labeled a sexual offender, then they get a free.45 round through the head (a very small few cases would be exempt, EX: drunk college girls f*cks the hell out a drunk college guy and then says he raped her and they both concented to it).
I think that would solve a lot of the problems. These sick freaks need to die within 1 week of true conviction with real evidence. The week gives them time to look back on what they did.
Take a childs innocence and we will take your life.
Simple!
There is a thin line between brillance and insanity and I weigh to much to be on that line
unless you are really, really, really, impatient and can't what that extra couple nanoseconds to listen to your mp3s or open your browser, you don't need to go out and upgrade right now.
It is like going out and buying the newer model car every year just because it is out when you really don't need it.
I am just going to go back to the old way of sampling music and that is by letting MTV show me the "good music" out today. I am already paying for cable so why should I use anyother way to listen to new music.
a $8,000 pay cut is a lot, but your are still makin $63,000!! There are people who have worked 20 years and only make 2/3's of that. Most of the people who make that type of money are not even in their 30's. It is sick how money turns people crazy.
My time is valuable to me. I don't want to spend it watching stupid ass commericials when I just want to watch a missed episode of my favorite show. Lets see, the normal show lasts a little over 20 minutes total, so that less than ten minutes of commercials. What can I do in ten minutes? I know what I can do, take a shit!
Anyway, if it is a crime to skip commercials then I just won't watch that show then. With less people watching the show, the ratings will go down. And with poor ratings, upper management gets reemed and possible fired. So AOL lady, if you don't want me to skip commercials, I won't watch the show and you will get fired.
I would not get a Dell what so ever. I am on my third replacement laptop in a 5 month span(1st replacement started sparking and the second replacement was shipped to me broken), and the problems that I went though with Tech Support and Customer Support was just horrid. I would not wish the problems that I had on any one. If you are a home user, expect to get the shaft like I did on getting good service. (I don't want the replies that say "I have had my Dell Craprion for 11 months now and I have not had a major problem and I have had great tech support and I will always buy Dell." That does not work here in my little area at/.)
If I was going to buy a laptop today, I would go with a Sony. All of there other electronics are great buys and seem to last for ever, so why would they not opuy the same quality into the computers.
And for warrenties, remember what Chris Farley said in Tommy Boy about warrenties......
I have had my 7500 just over 2 years now and i have had to replace the keyboard, mouse, modem, network card, lcd, hinges(twice), DVD/Floppy Drive (3 times at least), and the hard drive. My motherboard was suppose to get replaced over a week and a half ago but the technician just seems that he can not get a hold of me at work when I am sitting at my desk most of the time.
I have talked to Dell about replacing my laptop because I am dissatisfied about the reliablity of the machine and they said that they need to review the history of problems with the machine.
No wonder the 7500 was only up for sale on their site for a short amount of time.

for Indiana. Wait, I am from Indiana!

the certification is tied to the understanding of the logic of programming/networking/etc in a general sense.

there is more than corn in Indiana. Not much though.

They need "good" tech support to support the shit that they make. I am on my fourth replacement laptop from Dell.

I don't care if they merge as long as it does not effect the HP printers and scanners.

Now thats one way to look at it.
