I think it's true. It's good to be damaged. I don't mean physically or to the point the cloud humor fails to make you laugh but rather attack; I mean rather that you get a little ruffled, that your edges get some tatters and the sh&t slides off much more slickly. Now don't use this as an excuse to break out the old chain clippers and let me fall...I'm just saying, in my own syphonic way (sluuuurp!), that I don't think tech should be so bombastically lusted after like warm meat. Just let the kids go throug the pheromonal miseries in a sea of hormones at school with rusty IBM PS/2 to practice typing on. A shiny Mac will just make them wimp jelly.
I was thinking something about jogging, and getting flashed with your iPod in hand. Like, "Take a jog with your iPod past certain homeless guys in the park, and you could get a few choice 'flash memories' for free, if you know what I mean...."
Okay, my comedic skills have failed me (as have my numchuck [sic] skills, my bo staff skills, my computer hacking skills, etc.)...Anyway, I was trying to come with some sort of joke about flash memory. You know, something about being flashed, the memory of being flashed, whatever...but no, I've got nothing. I can't find the proper set up or timing. Any of you have better skill at executing this idea?
Now, I don't know about any of you, but I myself have never found it necessary to give my signature out to McAffee or Norton to get their products to work. Maybe I had a cracked version, I don't know, but I've always been able to install and operate without signing a damn thing....okay, okay, I'm kidding! Sorry to all you who were about to just rip into my stupidity. I've taken away your fun! I'm just foolin'!
Nah, I think what it is, my scrumptious crumb, is that I grew up and now have other concerns. They are just a childhood memory like any other. I play the occasional Stinkoman for kicks, but that hardly counts.
At least you just went with my (intentionally) crazy style and (inadvertant) typos, instead of huffing around about it, being and randroidical and linguistically utilitarian.
Oh my days of console gaming are long gone. i shed a hard tear or four for those days. Back when I was a lighter spud (a kid, in the 'up down' speak), I saddly have some of my fondest memories from playing games back then. But I think the biggest reason I liked them was because of the cartoony surreality of the graphics back then. Now, with all the capabilities for photo-realistic graphics, it loses its charm. How many snakes, for instance, can smile within 10,000 pixels these days, but not we forget how the snakes from SM2 made us smile. Thank god humans don't bud, eh? What would console makers do for controllers the? But I digress....anyway, does anyone else shed the tears I described for the innocent days of game play?
Preston is the better name for the hog, but corporate lackeys didn't have that dream because of a high pile of snow just inside the hall entryway. Seems unbelievable, yes, but I saw the uncensored memo. They had a machine do it, and weren't careful about the commands--meaning, of course, they didn't get what they bargained for and a mount was formed in their path. No kitties got left out, however.
They've taken a little cooler and stopped chasing their speed dragon to make a more solid, well-organized, and efficient architecture. Once they've established this 'way point' of stability, then they can get back on the zip zoom bus. I'd like to stand in on the silicon vista, if I were tiny, and see how much less litter they've got hooked up down there. Copper plate thatches, cat scratches, now Intel has the cool down rock and roll.
Isn't it a little scary that soon all the crazy paranoid people--those who think people are beaming messages into little chips planted in their belongings--aren't going to be saying anything too far-fetched?
You know, I'm actually becoming a little bored with all the self-righteous promotion of Linux and vehement bashing of Windows. You know, I'm a scientist and I used both platforms a lot for my work. However, at home, I don't bother having anything but Windows. And you know why? Because, even though I'm in a technical field, there is a lot of other stuff I have to worry about than keeping my linux box running and up to date and making sure I know how to keep my files cross-compatible with what everyone else is using. And I value my personal relationships more than the state of my PC OS. What I'm saying is, is that using only Linux requires a certain committment that I don't have the energy to maintain or the need to do. It's almost a hobby in and of itself. And there are a lot of other people out there who deal with technology even less than me who really have no need for the responsibility that comes with Windows.
I guess what I'm trying to say is...despite all the freedom and independence that linux affords all you linux users out there, you don't need to be so snobby to the rest of us. It isn't that we're dumb or unimaginative...its just that we have other things to be smart and imaginative about and we don't want to be distracted by having to deal with Linux. If you like it, fine. That's your prerogative. But you don't have any place being indignant and snobby toward the rest of us. What we sacrifice in control and nuts and bolts access to our OS's, we gain in not having to think about our computers as anything more than a task-tailored tool for the other shit in our lives that's more important to us.
"Would it be possible to place a GSM transceiver within you home that can be tied into Asterisk in a way that would allow you to place calls from your GSM phone across your VOIP connection or though your local landline? "
Now seriously...listen to yourself...how do you look yourself in the mirror each morning?
If you want something so fancy and seeded with the sci-fi honey, then more realistically I'm thinking we could expect those filamentary 'cell kites,' as they were, to offer you your interface calling.
They need a 6 mo, 9 mo, and 12 mo head crash test in their evaluations. But then the review wouldn't be cutting edge and fresh by that time, how far? Hard drivers scare me when I load them with loads of data. I's a scared baby when it comes to my data. Back up it often, your data. I know this commity knows this. Computer hackeys abound here.

obscure, but to those of us who get it, it was pretty well timed. That was good.
Abort-worthy perhaps, although I love any excuse to dwell on Brazilian cuts....

Oh well...they've gave me a pity point.
and look! another typo! how about '...being all randroidical...'

It's worth two tin pennies and a straw that threads.

dirt-potay-stem.
I may just. I perhaps should have included mac users, I was just in a hurry. I guess my pulitzer will have to wait for another day.
I meant to write, 'the responsibility that comes with LINUX.' I need grammar school more than I do either OS, apparently.
