What if I already like/prefer Plantronics products and don't want to see this same damn ad over and over again? Can we at least have dynamic preference-based stuff?
Yellow jackets are protein eaters (other bugs, roadkill). They don't make honey. In the late summer / early fall they lose their normal food sources and they start going after carbohydrates -- sugary soda and pretty much anything on the picnic table.
They're also super aggressive at that time of year and can sting repeatedly. Which is why I hang a yellow jacket trap to kill as many as possible. 10 in the last day!
I can attest to yellow jackets and the similar colored paper wasp being annoying, but I think they pollinate plants as well, thought not nearly as much as bees...
Aha, yeah I just took a look and firefox.exe is using about 418MB of RAM. Honestly though, ram is pretty damn cheap nowadays. Even being broke I've managed to accumulate 8GB worth, and other than the occasional precursory glance, I don't worry about how much I'm using anymore...
Actually now that I think about it 418MB is pretty fuckin bad, I need to turn off some of these extensions
It seems that it would be a better idea to willfully accept and clandestinely record communication coming from countries hostile to the United State's interest; now it's not RIGHT, but that would still be the most logical process of dealing with and controlling an entity you believed hostile, right?
Hm.....seeing as how VPNs are awfully well known as a way around this type of geological restriction, what if you were to simply sniff traffic on those? Cut off the citizens who are technically inept and cannot find a way around the ban, and then force the majority of those who do know of a way around it to an alternative which you control. Hell maybe not, I don't know. It just seems odd to me that our government would pass up a golden opportunity like this to spy on hostile nations.
I'm sure you can all invent miraculous ways to prevent crime and straighten out the nations criminals, but try walking a mile in someone else's shoes before you make these suggestions.
I spent about a year traveling between prisons and spending most of my time in a prison boot-camp system, and would find it hard pressed to implement various ideas some of you speak of. While I can agree that video games are not really needed in the prison (we had none, nor individual TVs for that matter), forcing someone to spend their waking life reading is a poor option. There were enough frustration problems there already.
I completely agree with you on the weight issue. I would much rather have a nice portable unit to provide me with pretty colors than the existing CRT monitors. Sometimes I swear my 19" monster is BOLTED to the damn desk.
(I try everything; yelling at it, hitting it, threating it, though nothing seems to work.)
While the things he says in this report are possible, I don't think the existing technologies that provide viewable images today are going to be obsolete any time within the next-to-near future.
I can safely say that by the time I die (late 2000's) CRT and LCD displays will still be around.
How ridiculous. I can't believe for a second that piracy could be even near as what is considered the worst theft possible. Forget kidnapping, rape (theft of innocence), burglary, and other crimes, those pirates must hang!
The real question is, why would someone make a first post in the first place?
However, through the use of simple mathematics I've deducted a formula that explains this habit-
sP + aF / P = Need of being the first poster
You see, the persons small penis (sP) factor is added to his annoyance factor (aF) and divided by any real personality this poster may have (P), creates the probability of having a first post, as well as the need to be the first poster.
Therefore, the average first poster believes that by being the first poster, he will enlarge his penis size. Unfortunately, this is most opposite of what *really* occurs.
fP = P / sP - wFOP = First poster's penis size.
As you can see, the first post has the effect of actually *shrinking* his penis, as the personality factor is divided by his existing small penis, minus an additional amount based on the annoyance factor of the first post itself. So, in reality, these people are causing long-lasting damaging effects to their genitals.
And to answer your question, no, I DON'T have anything better to do than post nonsensical, offtopic garbage on a message board.
Games with big, nicely rendered breasts ALWAYS do well, reguardless of any actual quality.
You want Doom III to have the same forced-upgrade appeal as the last two? Just put some big, nicely rendered breasts in it somewhere. Maybe on those fat grey guys from the screenshots.....
I think we could combine the technologies outlined in the article below this (laser of death) with the problems in this article (spammers)! Think of the possibilities!
"Delicious, refreshing sobe! mm! product placement at it's finest!"
I do remember running to those little vending machines, desperate for a health sobe.
....However, i've never bought one outside of that video game. The hell with product placement.
It's about time they started supporting this.
I converted some 128kbps to 96/mp3pro, and they sounded identical. Even if it isn't any better sounding, you could convert all of your exisiting mp3s and save some space.

You seem to be just jumping at the bit to lose your hand in the workplace

Well heck, with this phone I don't think we'll have a problem with that!

Somehow if Bush could manage it, I think he can too :)

no i do not have kids, or a debt free lifestyle you insensitive clod.
Or a life for that matter.
Energy happens.
At last! A solution to our overcrowded prison system!
Or so I thought.
I can see Attack Of The Clones the way George Lucas meant it to be!
