Fuck that. If there was a large response to its arrival that shows a big enough number of enthusiasts are checking the camera often. Some Wag could easily locate this particular crater even with the map used to navigate the archives.
Once in the crater it's gonna be pretty easy to see that BIG WHITE BOX made out of metal and built to resist VOLCANIC EXPLOSIONS. This isn't some hibernating i-book with a webcam doing wifi updates form some rock. It's a fuckin bomb shelter.
It's probably the most noticeable (and thusly find...able) feature in the crater.
The question is "How much would I pay to keep Shatner OUT of the show, thus killing any thoughts of a headache inducing 'time singularity/distortion/graviton flux' plot-line?"
I say we toast the cast of Enterprize with some Iocaine powder.
I'm glad they figured out how to balance the phase variance in the polaric energy they had to run through the deflector array to fire up the phaser arrays. Ver admirable work, but it's no match for my Klingon Disrupters!
Last summer I went to Tokyo Dome City right downtown tokyo and on their main roller coaster you could buy your place at the front of the line. For some (reasonable wankwank) 1000 yen or something you would get 4 little pictures sent to your cellphone (well, your girlfriend's) and you could reserve spots for the ferris wheel too.
We cut out of the 3 hour line (The charge goes to your phone bill, handy!) and went to the front, put the picture on the screen of the phone and put it on a square reader. It beeped and ten minutes later we got on the coaster. We did that all day. Chumps, lines are for poor people.
You idiot. How hard is it to get your idiot friends to click three buttons and do a fucking auto-update? I'm all for punishing the guy, but a monetary fine is fucking bullshit. This isn't an unlocked door, that analogy blows. It's like running your car without motor oil.
Retarded. Preventable. Oil changes are fucking simple, patching your system is even easier.
How ridiculous is it that they have caused you $500 of work when ten seconds of clicking would set the thing installing.
Also, I think the onus in this case should be on the end-user. Don't talk about burglary. Or motor oil. This is new territory, nothing substantial about cybercrime has been setup, it's such a fledgeling criminal offense.
The internet is a malicious place, you wouldn't walk through Harlem at midnight a scrawny nerd in a nice leather jacket. The Police will still pursue the offender but they're going to think you're RETARDED for walking through such a place.
I know if it's on the right they'll get lots of inadvertant clicks when people are aiming for the scroll bar. Then again, it's another reason to put it there.
Stuff on the bottom just fucks with my brain. Anytime I'm on a friend's computer and those huge msn e-mail warnings come up (and those are hella small compared to these ads) or some retard has logged on I always scream out in horror. No one should put anything down there that isn't in a taskbar and cordoned off from doing anything to my sanity!
Left sucks, it would just jar your browsing experience. No one needs that.
On the top? Uhh... Probably again alot of inadvertant clicking trying to minimize or close. I know for me I have all my windows maximized so I can just whip my mouse up to the top right (Requires no brain use) and start mashing mouse buttons.
So if the Victorians taught us anything about logic, the choice is to put it on the right.
You fucking overbearing asshole americans, you're making being an american very hard for me. Maybe you should take half a second to read the man's words. Why can't you understand that it is now a global economy, if american companies were to spend too much money on paying our fat lazy assholes (I'm sorry but anyone who works on a computer has a fucking soft life.) to be less productive we would eventualy fall by the wayside.
What we need is to be competitive. There is a glut of software engineers. Too many engineers not enough jobs. This is true anywhere, pickle farming, douche bag manufactury, or chiefs. You complain that the reason the jobs have gone away is some ceo meeting his bottom line. It is, he's making it and you don't cut the mustard. When you were in college you had the opportunity to get any education, and you picked the profession with too many pasty little whiners.
Try beating your life out of a patch of dirt, then bitch to me from ivory keyboards.
Life is competition. Do not be a sore loser. Dust yourself off, get back out there.
p.s. of course it would make the shareholders of intel happy, that's why the bought the stock you fucking nerd.
If you give your children freedom, without cockamamie rules like "Don't lie to us" and "Don't quickly close down windows", you'll find that they will police themselves. They're going to see porn eventually. Somewhere they will. you can not stop that. there are bad things on the internet, as there are in real life, seeing things that might be unpleasant (I'm speaking of your rotten.com's and such) but looking at that stuff is it's own punishment.
Your kids are smarter then you give them credit for, but please, don't punish their natural urges to explore the more adult side of life (I don't mean just porn, adult stuff in general, as in non-barney) with obtuse rules. Let them close the door, let them lock it too. If you trust your kids you will have a much better relationship with them.
It is when trust breaks down that kids will do drugs and not tell you. Then you won't be able to educate them without making them look at you as captain bringdown. Discuss sex openly. Discuss Alcohol openly. Discuss with your teenage boys the need to respect women, life, privacy. Your kids will love you so much more if you can be a friend too.
Now, if they're way out of line I'm not saying you should back off and be a total beatnik parent, you're still the authority figure. Just use some rationale eh? If your kid tries dope you'd much rather hear about it from him after the first incident, not the cops after the 100th he had to hide from you.
Same deal with the net. To love is to set free... I think Sting sang it best.
Oh, and by all means block crap like rotten.com... I saw that around age 12 and it was not right. Don't block goatse.cx though, they see that and they'll stay the F away from that side of the internet for a while LOL.
The Hudson's Bay company has been existence since 1670. When Canada was formed as a country it was already 200 years old. They still operate stores all over Canada. You can still buy the same blankets at these stores that you could at the Hudson's Bay Company's trading post. Except now you give them paper or plastic instead of a corresponding number of Beaver pelts. Mmm... Beaver Pelt...
For those who have no idea who Zildjian is, know this. They are undoubtedly the manufacturers of the finest cymbals in the entire history of the world. I cannot describe for you the feeling I get when I hear their perfect resonance. (For the cymbal nerds, I have 60 year old beauties, but I don't read Arabic so I don't know what they are)
They are my benchmark for digital audio. When a speaker can reproduce that high, it is done. No further development is required, the upgrades will have to be made on us.
Listen to Will Smith or Alanis' albums. Do those stinking piles of shit have anything remotely resembling a full collection rather then a hobgobble of singles? I think not.
The joke ass bands that are Green Day and Stinkin Farce (Linkin Park) wouldn't know an album if it bit them in the face. Those idiots write 3 or 4 singles, all to be released in three month intervals to maximize fan stupidity, and then fill the rest of their albums with noise so they can pretend they're musicians.
I'm sorry, but the lead 'singers' of linkin park should be dragged into the street and shot if they ever try to sing again. I've never heard such drivel. Tell me how there lyrics aren't pandering to the white suburban nerd, who thinks he has such a terrible life. Poor kids get three meals a day, a warm bed, school, AND they have the privilige to listen to this crap.
And since that's the case, wouldn't a 'pay per song' model be more effecient? These tools won't have to fill in the rest of the album anymore. They can just put a new song out every three months. Jeez, if they were smart they'd do that and insist on a 'modest' increase of price to $1.98.
I bet it's easier to sell twenty idiots one 'cheap' song, then sell one idiot a 20 dollar album.
Such whining makes me want to throw up. And I think I'm going to.
Uhh, it may just be me, but isn't the atomic receiver the one doing the time telling? I mean, you're using a clock to run the pendulum, whereas the order used to be reversed. (Pendulum ran the clock)
Does that seem really frivilous to you too? This barely fits under "Stuff that matters"
I don't know if you've noticed or not... but each Starbucks is the same as the next. Manufactured art-deco murals, the same damn tables, and the same idiotic, conglomerate mindset in each. Don't you see that putting Wi-Fi I-Net access in their stores is only pulling the wool over your eyes to the crap that is Starbucks? Support a little guy, hit up a local Coffee House, you'll meet much more interesting people (Unless you like talking to yuppies about their matching VW bugs and IMacs).
And if you don't... may you never say a disparaging word about Microsoft again, you hypocrite.
I don't know that I have ever seen a 'rock star' driving a really nice car. You know who I see with lots of money? Rap artists. Anyone care to venture a guess why there are rap artists that make a shit load of money?
They have their own labels! Death row, murder inc, I could go on and on. These guys were smarter then whitey from the get-go. They produced their own music, and sold it themselves. New artists get picked up by these labels and make ridiculous amounts of money because these labels know how easy it is to market these albums. All you need to do is have a video filled with hot chicks and some Bling, have music that doesnt suck(Doesn't have to be good, Ja Rule sucks heavy fucking ass and is really rich), and the white MTV watching yuppie kids will go out and buy that album in droves.
There is no shortage of smaller record labels that will sign interesting groups. If not, create your own label! Swollen Members did it with Battle Ax records, and the beastie boys eventually came out with Grand Royal as a record company. Hello Nasty sold a shitload of albums, and wasn't promoted by RIAA tools.
If more people followed this business scheme (Basically invented by Puff Daddy and Russel Simmons) when they went for a recording contract, they'd be rich. (See Bow Wow, but it helps that Snoop Dogg was in his corner.)
I don't feel sorry for Idiot Band A when they sign with Mega Asshole Company B, without taking into account whats going on. That's just stupid business practice.
"The maiden voyage of Deep Flight Aviator in San Francisco Bay, they said, ranks with the Wright brothers' flight at Kitty Hawk and Lewis and Clark's trek through the Northwest Passage."
Yeah, and I come from Soviet Russia. The Northwest passage doesn't exist, English.

What we really need to know is how many library of congresses this thing could remotely control...
Quake 3 comes with the same editor that the id team used (and designed) and it's free.
Quake 3... Use it... Love it...
(Plus, your levels will look much prettier then other games, and there's gobs of free textures and objects on the net begging for you to use them)
And remember, game play and flow are as important as aesthetics.
