Just in case I HAVN'T just been trolled (unlikely), it's Paper Cartrage Load Letter
Load Letter size paper in the Paper Cartrage.
And I've had some recent Office Space type experiances at my job... damn fax machine always jammes when it's low on paper, in the same place, where I have to reach under the damn thing and pull with no room, the motherfucker beeping at me and pulling the paper back in while I try....... I want a peice of that damn POS...
Really? Man were you lucky, I had to design a series of 1*0 pixel icons, all of which represented a diffrent machine status. Not only that, but it was on a monochrome monitor, and couldn't be on OR off. I needed to make up my own color when I didn't have anything to work with. You kids have it far too easy.
Step 3: Choose the line input.....(Microsoft made a user interface design faux pas here by drawing the input selections as square checkboxes, which normally represent individual on/off settings, rather than as round radio buttons, which represent choose one of many.)
There are many good sound cards (like my old one) that allowed you to select many diffrent recording inputs at the same time. It's just the on-board, Creative, and other cheap crap that limmits you to one.
I think they are both childish. How are we to expect objective news from a site that has these types of things? There ARE real Microsoft and Windows icons you can use, you know.
Now watch me called a troll for not following everyone else by putting dollar signs in 'M$'
Simple. The server knows where you are, knows the map, and so it only sends you what you need to know. Nothing more, and the client COULDN'T cheat. Sure, targeting cheats would still work, but that's what the checksum is for.
What would that meen. Do Network Administrators fall in that catigory? How about website developers? Website designers? I'm wondering, how is it defined, and where is the line drawn?
For the moment, though, HSS is unfinished business. As night must follow day, there are Defense Department applications. Norris and A.T.C. have been busy honing something called High Intensity Directed Acoustics (HIDA, in house jargon). It is directional sound -- an offshoot of HSS -- but one that never, ever transmits Handel or waterfall sounds. Although the technology thus far has been routinely referred to as a ''nonlethal weapon,'' the Pentagon now prefers to stress the friendlier-sounding ''hailing intruders'' function.
In reality, HIDA is both warning and weapon. If used from a battleship, it can ward off stray crafts at 500 yards with a pinpointed verbal warning. Should the offending vessel continue to within 200 yards, the stern warnings are replaced by 120-decibel sounds that are as physically disabling as shrapnel. Certain noises, projected at the right pitch, can incapacitate even a stone-deaf terrorist; the bones in your head are brutalized by a tone's full effect whether you're clutching the sides of your skull in agony or not.
And then later, he asks to have a demo...
Norris prods his assistant to locate the baby noise on a laptop, then aims the device at me. At first, the noise is dreadful -- just primally wrong -- but not unbearable. I repeatedly tell Norris to crank it up (trying to approximate battle-strength volume, without the nausea), until the noise isn't so much a noise as an assault on my nervous system. I nearly fall down and, for some reason, my eyes hurt. When I bravely ask how high they'd turned the dial, Norris laughs uproariously. ''That was nothing!'' he bellows. ''That was about 1 percent of what an enemy would get. One percent!'' Two hours later, I can still feel the ache in the back of my head.
Not only that, but if you read deeper, the Navy is using this as a weapon.

I've seen a tape bulker placed next to a computer on the side the hard drive was located. Someone noticed and they moved the computer, but soon afterwards the HD failed. I wonder...
I was de-bugging a radio stations computer system that wasn't playing music (no music == bad) so I had to crawl over the on-air console and go behind the built in furniture. My GOD! HUGE lumps of dust, and wire... running... everywhere and nowhere at the SAME TIME! It turns out the problem was a home-made null-modem cable connecting the scheduling computer with the playing computer (most important systems in the station, responsible for playing all music over the air) was resting under the UPS they had back there. I'm trying to keep things cleaner now. Less wires that dont run anywhere (hell, I think I remember hearing there was 120v Live not connected to anything just laying there) and more vacuming (less dust). Systems turn to SHIT when you don't activly watch over them.
Well, it would only work if it was a packet sniffer too. Or does it just keep track of HTTP on Port 80? If so, I think most of the porn (or, PR0N) surfers out there would be safe.
Does it in Linux? First off shares arn't shared UNTILL YOU SHARE THEM. Secondly, in all Windows versions before NT/2K when you made a share with no password it warned you and yelled at you but it would let you do it. I wan't to be able to do what I want, even if it meens a share w/o a pass. And in the later versions of Windows when network shares are linked w/ username/login combo's, the default is to only allow the creator access. All other users must be spacifically set. It's not Microsoft's fault this time, sorry.
One of the things I like about this contest is that they don't restrict you to a style/language of programming. Whatever it is, it'll be done in the team's prefered language. It might be on Windows, Linux, MacOS (uhhhhg), Unix, some Sun box, or anything. And it might be done in anything from Perl, to PHP, to VB, to C, to C++, to Assembly, to Python, to Fortran, to QBASIC. When you don't hold biasses over people's prefered languages, you'll see that more and better stuff gets done.
Slashdot Mirror
April 1st is only an excuse for Slashdot to get another shot (and another, and another, and another) at slashdotting a website that just wont go down.
And the best way to write it is
Y/M/D
It lists items alphabetically, in the right date order.

They didn't slashdot it the first time, April 1st is just an excuse for them to try, try again.

I loved that book! I've still got my copy, very interesting read.
Opera 7.03 test. Hm, working fine.

By the time this is availible, broadband will be at the places they plan to cover.
I can tie up the phone line and go slowly (faster, but still slow) for a little less then to get the real thing. No thanks.
"programmer-type"?

Read deeper into the article my friend...

cmd.exe does, that's what I use on my Windows box...
Flamebait?
It's a view!
And an appropriate one too.
Please mod parent up.

The winner is: Porn
I always knew it.
AHH! NO google, I DIDN'T meen that! BAD google, BAD!
