    The Sims. I'm sure the have an expansion for horny-college-kid, and the later developmental stage of picking a wife that's right for me. The problem is, you aren't going to find a wife that can keep up with your desire to read slashdot instead of making sweet love.

  7. Re:defining terrorism on "Star Wars: Clone Wars" coming to Cartoon Network · · Score: 1

    Did you mean rebels in the first line, because they didn't blow up Alderan. Furthermore, We the only information that we have that said the planet was devoid of weaponry was Leia's, who was from that planet, and a leader of the resistance. Now, I can't surmise to say I know the planet was harboring weapons against the Empire (the established government) but you can't say that you can possibly trust what Leia has to say about the planet. She'd be more inclined to save it if it were strategically important to her cause.

    Did you shaft the guy? If it was $1,000 cash, I would have said, sure, then stuck with my current job just to spite him.

    Then what about the 60 million using P2P. IIRC it is 60 million.

Error, error error, oh the humanity, let's take a look at how Mr. Z is doing. Mr Z appears to have written only 100 lines, but it does compile, and What's this?!?!? It's fully functional! Mr. Z, here's your prize, one XXXL T-shirt. Tune in next week for Linus vs. Bill on the Professional Coder Network. Will be forced to where a M$ sucks shirt to work on Monday? Only one way to find out!

    I know you ment that to be funny, or at least hope you were, however I fear my country may try to something horrible in the future. I for one intend to move to Germany within the next five years. As soon as I graduate from college that is.

  15. Re:Simple, do the math... on Most Movies On P2P From Insiders? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I totally agree. There is a play-again theatre a few blocks from my campus. Movies get there around a month to two months after the regular theatres. They're there before rentals. Anyway, the play-again theatre costs $1 for admission and regular movie prices for concessions. I use to go to movies 2-4 times a month at $8.50 a pop. Now I go about 2-4 times a week. Now that's what I call a working buisness model. At any given time the theatre is completely packed. Even for crappy movies.

    Take a social psychology class. People are attracted to people with similar intrests to themselves. The whole opposites attract thing is BS.

    .... a sexy, available, female nerd. We would all like it to exist. The fairy-tale aspect of it is too grand to not want, but sooner or later we come to terms with the truth.

    It has no network adapter (modem or otherwise) and no input devices (as in all the ports ps/2 com et cetra have been melted shut or broken off) It has no hard drive, just rom, and It's in a chest rigged to explode somewhere at the bottom of the north atlantic! I extend an invite to all the hackers/crackers to try to by pass it!

  20. Re:Childish screening procedures. on Linus to SCO: 'Please Grow Up' · · Score: 1

    After the MacArthy trials took place there were laws put up against blacklisting people. Now you can refuse employment based on past employment history, however I don't think that'll fly here as codemonkeys have little or no say in management or decesion making, ergo they should be held accountable.

  21. Re:Right... on What The RIAA Gets Out Of File Sharing · · Score: 1

    I once read that if you added up all of the replacement parts for a Pontiac Grand Prix, it would be in the $100,000 area, and that's not labor for putting it together. Seems reasonable, no?

  22. Re:Good to see they let her off easy. on RIAA Settles With 12-Year-Old Downloader · · Score: 1

    They're pretty well-to-do poverty stricken people to have $2,000 sitting around. While I come from a single parent home, my mom has owned the home since I was little. She works one full-time and one part-time job to make ends meet. She doesn't help with mine, or my sister's tuition, she can't afford it. I got in between a rock and a hard place last semester, and couldn't afford my rent for three months. She emptied out her account, closing it, and handed me the $875. While I don't presume to know the entire budget, I do know that she makes between $30-40 more a month than the bear minimum to cover her expenses.

  23. Re:Well no duh... on EFF Warns Against RIAA Amnesty Program · · Score: 1

    With the proliferation, it's unlikely that IRC will be tracked. I've been using it for over a decade for warez trading, and it's always been the best. It's not as user friendly, but that's why 60 million people don't use it.

    Www.no-ip.com they have a free solution for your problem. Just change the port numbers on your daemons to something non standard and get yourself the dynamic dns client. It have it running on a p2 400 with the latest mandrake beta on it. It doesn't take up a noticeable amount of resources, so whatever you run it on should be fine.
