The problem is when the network is down and they want you to answer their emails.
That doesn't sound like a problem at all. If the network is down, you won't get their e-mails. When you get those e-mails, the network is up, and you can respond that it is now working. Sounds perfect to me!
Then they call you on the phone demanding to know when the network is coming back up.
If I reboot, and let the system run for a further 4 months, would the symptoms come back?
Then the problem didn't get fixed.
Then go bitch at MS. Your IT guy isn't likely to be able to fix a 4 month stability bug, especially when you should be rebooting at least once a month for patches.
Skidpad is only a measure of static lateral grip - slalom speed is probably a better performance metric there. Corvettes are fast and cheap (and feel like it too), but I prefer things like the Lotus Elise.
Everything I do affects you somehow, so that's out. We haven't established much of anything besides you thinking that I do something you disapprove of - not really worthy of legislation. I can't really make sense of the rest of that wharrgarrbl, so I won't bother with it.
The fact is, we didn't treat them like POWs, so we can't start now, and we frequently put a bounty out on a fuzzily defined group of people and got a lot of guys like achmed the goatherder or the turkish chinese guys that nobody wants. What to do with them? I'd say offer asylum to the ones that aren't dangerous, since it's our fault they're in that spot.
I find it hilarious that you're defending an H2 as a serious offroad vehicle instead of a fullsize chevy with a body kit. If you need 12" clearance, get a pickup and lift it a bit. At least you can get them in diesel.
Honestly, it doesn't even matter: Bush's insistence on manufacturing a new term for them and keeping them in a hole for 5 years means that any of the ones that are actually dangerous can't be prosecuted anyway. That must frost you.
A lot of the people in gitmo are there because we paid some tribal lord a bunch of money for 'taliban soldiers' and they rounded up whomever they didn't like. So yes, Jamal the goatherder is not a terrorist.
No, that's just a mainstream news unit of measure. We now have football fields, libraries of congress (LOCs), swimming pools (for area?), and the entire power output of the north american energy grid.
If "Having other students answer roll call for them" is an indetectible method of circumventing the rollcall procedures, then Japanese professors are just playing into the West's "All Asians Look Exactly Alike" stereotype. Way to go, Nihon.
Um, they sort of do. Japan is really homogenous, much more so than almost anywhere in the US or EU, if you have 150+ students to grade, can you tell them apart by voice?
Even more frustrating is; grades are more about attendance than performance.
With that and the crap about their racism and treatment of people whose distant ancestors were butchers/undertakers, why do we even consider them an economic threat?
I guess you're unclear on the concept of what a password is. Of course handing over the keys to the lock makes the lock pointless. It's not obscurity, though.
Is this another "commerce clause" sort of thing that means whatever you want it to mean depending on what is convenient at the time and who is in power?
The commerce clause is much abused, but this is a clearly needed thing: interstate commerce requires interstate markets, and without regulation, things go off the rails. You could argue that it shouldn't be this way, but we do need the SEC, even if it means an amendment allowing them.
With the NES collectors, you could argue that there is no real harm in having 6000 ROMs from a game system that's 15 or so years old. They don't sell it, and even if they did, there isn't much market for that stuff anyway - you'd need to package it nicely and make it play like a regular game. Even then, the appeal is limited. This is more akin to collecting antiques.

Heh, Obama is a Chicago politician. If he wasn't at least a little corrupt, I'd be surprised.

why would you have multiple threads running on a tally?
My doorframe is steel. Should stand up to a boot heel pretty well.
Maybe you should invest in a sturdier door.

He said harm, not affect. The things I do that do not harm you are none of your business.

even what American's fondly call beer.
I'll have you know, America produce quite a bit of very good beer. Show up in seattle and I'll introduce you to some.

What would you do if some bunch of foreigners rolled into your country and started acting like occupiers? That's right, you'd shoot them.
Pot, kettle.

No, all security relies on some way of authenticating people so you can keep the wrongw ones out. pass phrases are one way, and ID cards are another.

I skipped tons of classes during my undergrad degree and this enabled me to actually assignments that I wouldn't have otherwise had time for.
Congrats on your engineering degree. I hope that those skipped English classes don't interfere with your technical writing ;)
Like nobody does this outside of engineering. I also have an engineering degree, but my electives are all over the map.
yeah, the copyright owners do the whole packaging of old stuff for a new, niche, market instead.

So collectors sell their illicitly gained ROMs in the WII shop? Seems unlikely.
