Were you firing the gun indoors? 5.56NATO outdoors isn't that bad, at least not for everyone. Now personaly, I can't hear much after firing a hunting/battle rifle, but carbine/assault loads don't bug me so much.
I don't think Nixon was a millionare before he became president, could be wrong though. Nowadays of course, "millionare" just means you can afford to retire like your (well mine anyways) grandparents did.
A lot (most in my area) of bars and cafes just leave an open "linksys" wireless network for their customers. My Intel/WXP notebook wants to create profiles of wireless networks to connect to. The emphasis (from the standpoint of what the notebook's intel writen software tells the user) is towards the safety of the network towards my data and the assumption is that an Open Network is just that, free to use. I can choose to connect without a profile, but if I do create one any other wireless router with the same ssid gets associated with. The end result is that if I create a profile at the Ugly Mug (linksys) my notebook will connect to neighbors' (linksys) open access points automaticly if the signal is the strongest. There is a way to avoid this, but it requires nontrivial thought processess and typing on the part of the user (tie a MAC address to the SSID) and this breaks access to other genuinely open APs.
The way everything is set up I think it really makes more sense to (legaly) regard open access points as "common ground". If you put up any kind of private notice (even an ssid labeled "ganesh family" on an open access point) those annoying computers will usually stay off your grass. If you actually put up a NO TRESPASSING sign like WEP or even just an SSID labled "no trespassing" you get to shoot them as long as you're not inside city limits (Can ya tell I live in Georgia?)
I see your point. My neighbor's kid just got an HP notebook with a bunch of flash games. As an aspiring professional gamer, he's very excited about their training potential too.
As far as audio toys attached to my guitar are concerned, I do enjoy playing with http://www.jesusonic.com/ . It's free (as in beer) and comes in WXP/Linux/OSX versions.
1) The Keeper of Secrets peels the flesh from your body, rapes you skinless and screaming, and then devowers your soul. You are dead, start a new character.
Will my character be able to die?
2) One of the things that turns me off to mmorp games is they just go on and on without any point. If you screw up you just respawn. If you defeat someone else they just respawn. Winning is reduced to a test of who can stand being bored the most and the only way to lose is to have any other interests that prevent you from logging 80 hours a week inplay.
How will Warhammer break or even slightly chip away at the mold of mmorp?
The only place I've ever heard a reference to "video on demand" was in an ad on cable. By the cable provider. If someone had asked me yesterday what VOD was I'd have guessed... voice over something beginning with D. digital? donkey?
The common short term for getting video when you want it is Torrent or YouTube.
Such is the penalty only for noob hackers using "trusted" hardware. It is easy to snip the 120v lead that fries your brain when the black ice says "boo."
A delightfuly twisted man, Niven. Regarding Superman having sex with LL this "modest proposal" could be summed up with the paraphrase,"...blow off the top of her head, while simulataneously gutting her like a trout."
Slashdot has some kind of deal with NYT I think. I guess it's working for them. That and the HUGE AD boobietrap that covered my computer sceen when my mouse pointer touched the MS VISIO 2005 banner at the top of this page.
Anyways bugmenot worked for the article. Or you could google "christies startrek" and go strait to the auction page.
OOOH, Picard's "flute" is on the block!

I guess I could hunt deer with it.

NSFW.
I can't believe no one has suggested this yet on a geek site. The solution is a big ass heat pipe with the radiator in space.
I thought this article was going to talk about floating wires up into your brain through the bloodstream. http://www.pbs.org/22ndcentury/story_brain.html
I caught the show the other night but PBS has it online, as well.
It would be great; a harkonen heartplug and a datajack all-in-one.
I guess they're Andy Griffith fans. Vulture is a go.

I love that it refered me to the "Red Rocket Hobby Shop"
redrocket! redrocket!
Would you rather have all the US billions or all the UK billions? Just a thought.
"The officers in this video are either the dumbest cops in the world,"...
They're campus cops. The ones that have over a 80 IQ get to work for the city p.d.

I liked that enough to look for the song. It's CC licenced and free to download here... http://www.tindeck.com/audio/my?loc=1w49k-Lemon%20 Demon%20-%20The%20Ultimate%20Showdown%20of%20Ultim ate%20Destiny.mp3
It depends on how old you were when you were watching the first episode of BTAS...
