Friday morning I found my system was rebooted and sitting at a Linux prompt (I dual boot). I couldn't figure out why except the night before I had to do a reinstall of my system and previously had the Windows firewall running. Later on Friday and into Saturday I'd get system messages that RPC service terminated unexpectedly. I could never figure out the problem. Then my ex-girlfriend gets it this morning and when I get home I fight to deal with about 10 reboots in less than a 2 hour period at random times. She calls Dell and they alert her to the worm. She then alerts me that its a worm. I then use linux to do some research on it.
Same with Bloomberg tech support, Dell, HP, Earthlink and Verizon, all of whom I called in the past month.
I think you need to lay off a bit on the number of calls. Instead of cold calling the tech support department of companies to make friends how about going out and meeting real people?
So MPAA, take a chill pill. We're not going to drive your poor key grip and dolly boys into homelessness. WTF is a 'key grip' anyway???
He holds the car keys of all the Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Jags, Lexuses (Lexi?), and Mercedez-Benzs for the actors and actresses while they are filming so that no one can steal their car.
Is George Bush the only thing you can complain about? I would have thought you had bigger fish to fry than complain about something that happened 30 years ago that you had no control over and that had nothing to do with you or anyone you know.
I guess now is the time to say I told you so with respect to those banner ads telling everyone that their IPs are being broadcasted over the Internet. Next thing you know people will be complaining that they missed their email when they are told plain and clear they have 1 new message waiting for them.
And if the scientists were to look at the evidence from a different point of view then they might loose some marketshare too and people would have to wonder who to believe. You can have all the evidence in the world to prove something right or wrong but if you don't interpret the evidence correctly it won't help. There are big steps missing in the story of evolution that scientists can't fill in.
no wonder we have children who have no sense of what's right because parents don't let them find out what is right but of course they let them find out what is wrong but don't say its wrong (porn)
By regularly using mobile phones, especially to send text messages and by playing hand-held computer games, a physical mutation had developed in the under-25s, the researchers have found.
So now simple muscle toning is considered a mutation and thus an argument for evolution being real? Give me a break. I guess all those body builders are just a big mass of mutations then? Too bad (for the evolutionists) this won't actually get past down to the children's offspring since it's not actually a mutation and thus a change in the chemical DNA of the children (which is the basis of evolution). I still can't quite understand how a physical change creates a checmical change but that's the scientists for ya.
Of course, you'd need to make sure the algorithms that humans wrote aren't flawed themselves, but once you got that pinned down, you would be more or less home-free.
Humans are imperfect by creation. The code will never be perfect because humans create it but we can always get it a bit closer each try we get.
Science can't prove evolution or the big bang (although it would love to do so) but those *theories* are still published in scientific journals. Scientists can't prove either but treats the theories just like they are laws. I wish I had a dollar every time someone made an argument for those theories, made an argument using those theories, or just said something in passing about those theories. They are that pervasive, especially if you ever watch the Discovery Channel. That channel acts like nothing else could be true except for those *theories*. I think people have forgotten what a theory is and automatically relate them to laws instead.
It didn't develop. It was created. If you can understand that simple fundamental issue many other questions are answered. Deny the truth and you will never understand the full story.
check out the Jukebox Recorder from Archos.com. It can encode to mp3 on the fly from voice or (if u buy the FM version) directly from the builtin FM tuner...20 gig version is about $250 or so, a lot cheaper than an iPod. Comes with its own set of headphones. A guy where I work bought one. I like it. I will get one eventually. Only about 12 oz.
It seems you might enjoy a service that offers songs for $0.25 in a lossless format, with no form of DRM, with a selection of every song ever made and nothing less. Just because you can't get Tuva [amazon.com] when the service opens doesn't make it a bad service.
Every song from every artist from every music label from every decade and every country. How do you get that? With Qwest. Ride the light.
In an imperfect world that tends to happen, just like it tends to happen that people get sick, die, cry, and hurt. Only when Jesus comes back to take those who believe away fromthe Earth will those people get any relief from the rest of the world.
where is the pro-choice meaning coming from concerning abortion rights? where's the baby's choice? We don't have the right to say when an adult human lives or dies so we shouldn't have the right to say when a baby lives or dies, whether its born or not.
I don't know about you, but I shudder to think of the potential damage that could be done to the air sacs in lungs just from breathing in "clouds" of these structures, even if benign.
In the book Prey (book about what *could* happen if nanotechnology "worked"), by michael crichton, it is described as choking because the bots fill your lungs and thus oxygen can't get in. You basicaly suffocate to death because the bots are in your lungs, throat, nose, mouth. It would be like taking flour and having someone pour it into your mouth and ram it down your throat so you couldn't do anything because there just was so much of it. Not to mention that the bots in this book were a little mean and would bite you so think of millions of tiny pin pricks on your lungs just before you stop breathing.

This was in Wired 1 issue ago. Not exactly news.

Short story is to delete msblast.exe from c:\windows\system32 either from linux or from a bootup dos prompt (otherwise you get access denied while in windows). Then install the patch at That's for the XP 32bit version. Win2k version is about 850k, 500k less than the XP version.
So would that be Kenny (or whoever wears red) from SouthPark as #5 there in the pic?

Like figuring out which dildo hurts least going in...
it's the smaller one
I'm not deleting the porn and you can't make me.
I think "every" might be a slight exaduration.
Would that be similar to an exabyte but bigger? Or should I ask how long an exaduration lasts?

How did consciousness develop?

for the anti-christ to keep track of everyone once he comes to power and to deny anything to anyone who doesn't follow him.
was spoilt by the greed of men.

was this not first posted a few weeks ago??
But in all seriousness, who would want a dull plain looking chubby chick ---> real life, and who would want an exotic hot chick ---) game life/dreams
You do realize there is a middle ground, like an average looking girl or guy average, right? Why go to extremes in either direction for men or women?
I like women in my games to have big tits and small waists.
Girls just flock to you don't they?
