I was modded down a day or two back when I said that the so called "good" worm was trouble.
Well, I told you so.
And in my OP, I didn't bash M$ at all, I didn't even mention it.
Now, I will.. Windows is $HIT. I could take a BIG STEAMY SHIT and stick a mouse cord and a monitor cord in it and have a BETTER system than you get with ANY version of Windows.
Yeah, yeah, bye bye karma, mod me down but you know I'm right..
I just looked up the name "Gigli" in google and found out about it.
Jennifer Lopez. Piece of shit. Would not ever, ever, watch ANYTHING featuring that piece of filth. My eyes will never, ever view that movie or even a trailer of that movie.. So sorry, some of us despise certain actors/actresses for what ever reasons and will not patronize them.
Yep, you are flamebait. You are the idiot and the jackass for you are the one spewing.
What the hell is "Gigli"? I've never heard of it before.
And yes, all the actors are drooling retards. All the GOOD actors are dead now.
Back many years ago you had to be a good actor or a failed actor. You didn't have special effects to cover your shitty acting and crappy storyline.
They can take any drunken bum off the street and stick him/her in front of a camera and make them look like a genius with CGI.
Hell, they even use DEAD PEOPLE as actors now, like Brandon Lee and even that crack ho that died in an airplane crash last year. They were both dead but they acted out parts from beyond the grave. Prove it otherwise.
Ok, she's a goddess... I remember seeing her in the Rocketeer and Dark City when my kids were little. Yeah, she's hot..
And by the way, I have to admit, I saw "A Beautiful Mind" and it was a pretty darn good movie with minimal special effects and loud music. They actually wrote a pretty good script for once.
I sent her my phone number and address and told her I'm divorced now. Still waiting to hear from her...
Why don't you come down here and try out some of the homeless people for size?? They'll skin you alive pal. The homeless around here are dangerous. They are so dangerous that an entire city closed down and moved away from them. Only on the very outskirts are there signs of life, the inner city is a burnt out cinder.
All the stores and restaurants couldn't stay open because the homeless would hang out around and inside of the places, harassing real customers. The police did nothing. So, the businesses just closed down and moved. Now the homeless are even more poor than they were before and 10 times more dangerous because they are even more desperate than they had been. And the city is now dead. No more. No work. No tax base. No anything. It's a nightmare.
They entire city has become too dangerous to venture into. Ever seen the Escape from New York or Escape from LA movies? HA! That's nothing.
Anyway, on your point of mental illness. Yeah, they are. And they have no business on the streets if they are. They should be in a place where they can get help. And if they refuse help? Too bad, pick them up and impose the help on them before they hurt someone else or themselves. And your argument still does not excuse these people from their behaviour. They have no right to use the bathroom in public, or shoot heroin in public, or drink alcohol in public. Those things are illegal, mental illness is not a free pass to illegal and bad behaviour..
I have absolutly no clue who that is. Never even heard the name before.
I haven't been to a movie in years. I quit watching movies on TV (cable, satellite, recorded) several years ago too.
I mostly try to watch movies from the late 20's to the late 60's very early 70's, prefering black and white to color.
My hearing is damaged and I can't understand what people are saying when there is music playing or stuff blowing up.
I tried to watch LOTR last year and after FOUR tries I still had no idea what they were saying. I finally watched it in my bedroom on a 13" set that has CC.
Not to mention, I can't stand the slimy themes anyway. All smut. I caught part of "Enemy at the Gates" while my son was watching it. The sex scene (woman sticking hand down man's pants) ruined the whole movie. Why do they think that every movie has to have a sex scene in it too??
When you have little kids you can't even let them watch TV or a movie because of all the smut.
Make better movies. Your movies suck. Face it. Get better actors, they all suck too.
You try to cover up the fact that the plot sucks ass and the actors are retard droolers by overloading the senses with loud ass music, shit blowing up and other gee-whiz special effects.
You are hoping that no one will notice the fact that the entire movie sucks.
I DARE you to make a movie without loud music and ANY special effects of any kind, CGI or old school. You won't because you can't.
You can't produce a movie that will stand on the fact that the plot is good and the actors are good because those days are gone.
Hollywood is washed up. Fold up and go home, we don't want your crappy movies any more.
They sleep on the street on a sheet of cardboard where people have to step over them.
They deficate and urinate in the street in full view of the public. Privacy?? They have none because they choose to have none. They could go in an alley or behind a tree or something to be out of sight when doing bodily functions but they choose to do it in full public view.
Then they stand around ranting and waving arms at people, spewing whatever delusions are on the tips of their tounges at the momemnt.
Hey, I'm against the government tracking people, it's wrong. But it's also silly as hell to say these people have any form of privacy. No one could possibly be more un-private than a homeless person.
Getting a glimpse at SCO's evidence

LAS VEGAS--When SCO Group first filed its lawsuit against IBM in March, critics characterized the move as the last gasp of an ailing company hoping to strike a series of lucrative licensing deals.
Since then the company has come out swinging even harder, bashing its detractors, standing by its allegations, and most recently, posting a profit that SCO said would allow it to continue its aggressive intellectual property fight.
At the SCO Forum here Monday, the company pulled out its latest weapon: lines and lines of disputed code that were allegedly copied from SCO's Unix into IBM's version of Linux. The company claims that IBM illegally copied Unix code into its version of Linux, and it's warning Linux customers that they may be violating copyright by using the operating system without paying SCO. It's also recently announced a new licensing plan that would require Linux customers to pay between $199 and $699 per computer.
In a quiet conference room tucked into the conference center at the MGM Grand, SCO offered customers, partners and the merely curious the chance to view the code for themselves, as long as they signed a nondisclosure agreement.
Companies involved in litigation traditionally keep such information under wraps in order not to tip their legal hand, but SCO said it decided to display the code because its critics were charging that it didn't have a case.
"Given the nature of this case and that there may be a significant period of time before it's resolved and that people were clamoring to see it, we decided to show a few pieces of evidence," said Chris Sontag, senior vice president of the SCOsource unit, which is charged with protecting SCO's Unix-related intellectual property.
As of the end of the day on Monday, more than 150 people had seen the code presentation, which the company said includes a small portion of the infringing code it has found so far. Sontag said the company has uncovered more than a million lines of copied code in Linux, with the help of pattern recognition experts.
A compelling case?
According to those who viewed the code at SCO Forum, company representatives showed off several categories of code that allegedly infringed its copyrights, including some lines that appeared to be directly copied, some that were derivative works and some that were obfuscated, such as code from which legal disclaimers had been removed. (This reporter declined to sign the nondisclosure agreement required to attend the special sessions where the companies showed off a special side-by-side comparison of the code, opting instead to gather reactions from people who saw the presentation.)
After viewing the code, Don Price, general manager of Price Data Systems, said he was surprised at the volume that was allegedly copied. "It's compelling," he said. "Some people were either extremely sloppy, or copied and thought no one would go after them."
Neil Abraham, with SCO reseller Kerridge Computer, said SCO made the right decision to pursue IBM. "I think they've got a very firm case," he said, after looking at the code. "It's not just one line. It's huge chunks."
Bob Ungetti, of Raven Technologies, who was milling about waiting to get into a room where the code was being shown off, said he wanted to see the code because his customers have been asking him about the suit. "I want to see the code myself just to substantiate the claims SCO is making, so when I talk to my customers about the credibility of the lawsuit, I can say I saw it for myself," said Ungetti, whose company is a reseller for SCO. "If they're interested in using Linux, they're conc
Now that the Y2K bug is -- well, not exactly a thing of the past, but no longer quite as prominent a news item as it once was -- we've decided to turn our attention to a different sort of bug: the bug (computer or human) known as a virus. Specifically, we're interested in knowing whether you should refer to more than one virus as virii.
Latin-lovers and viral votaries alike know that the noun virus is a borrowing from Latin. In that tongue, a virus (pronounced WEE-russ) is a venom, a poisonous emanation, a slimy liquid, or a stench. In fact, when virus first slithered its way into our language in the late 16th century, it named a "venom emitted by a poisonous animal."
The word's Latin ancestry has given some English speakers the idea that the only logical way to pluralize virus is to replace the terminal -us with the letters -ii . This idea seems especially popular among folks who are referring to more than one computer virus. But before you catch the bug for that new spelling, consider this: the notion that Latin words ending in -us must take an -ii plural is a flat-out fallacy. In fact, there is no evidence that any plural form of the classical Latin virus was ever recorded; some lexicographers even suspect the Latin virus was a mass noun (and thus needed no separate plural).
In addition, when you look at the historical record of English usage, you find viruses, not virii, as the established plural. So although virii has turned up upon recent occasions, that word is far from standard.
Oh god no! I refused to watch that movie. I don't watch "love" movies, at all, ever, for any reason. And it just smacked of dumbness and lameness. Not to mention the AOL factor. I thought it was an AOL propaganda flick, I'll bet they handed out AOL CD's (or floppies) at the theatre.
Don't laugh. I went to an office supply store and the little girl there had NO CLUE ON PLANET EARTH what carbon paper is. She didn't even know what isle to begin looking on, she thought it might be with the inkjet cartridges when I told her it was a special paper for making copies of handwritten or typewritten documents.
She even told me she had never seen a typewriter before but had heard of them. She thought is was some sort of word processor. (Yeah, it was one of the first!)
It's amazing how fast we've thrown out the old. Even in movies all you ever see is some dipshit banging at a keyboard and they aren't even typing, much less do they comprehend what it is they are supposed to be doing (as an actor).
I haven't seen a typewriter in a movie for years now. FWIW, I still have a manual, 1941 Underwood at my office. I keep it just because it keeps me in touch with the past. It still works too..
and wish for their speedy demise, I applaud them for shunning M$.. This is about the ONLY good thing the communist government has done since it came to be.
OTOH, it's going to be much harder for the NSA to hack them, if they are running Linux. If they were to run M$ products any 5 year old or the NSA could waltz in and browse the entire country at will like a dumb tourist with a camera around his neck..
Maybe the gubmint should convince Billy boy to GIVE M$ products free of charge to China so the whole country has that *special* built in back door..
I'll tell the planet what I see. I could give a rat's ass about SCO and any NDA shit. What can they do to me??
Not a damn thing in the world. I don't use banks so they can't take my money. ALL of my possessions are fully paid for so they can't take them. Texas is a homestead state so they can't take my house.
If they sue me, I'll wipe my ass with the papers and mail them back.
If you have the $$$ to drive me (I do *not* fly) to Utah, I'll sign the NDA, view the code and post the results here on/.
The "Hulk" was made on Linux boxes. So the Hulk is a derivitive of Linux. I guess that means that SCO get's a cut of all the top hollywood movies that use Linux systems to produce special effects.
Let's see Darl talk shit to Hollywood. They smack his ass back into the womb where he can be born again and his momma can get a postnatal abortion..
you are better off to call a licensed electrician.
Don't even think about touching anything in there. You will be taking the big dirt nap shortly if you do, and a little on the crispy side at that.
CAT-5 is one thing, AC wiring will KILL YOU DEAD. Keep out of it, call a state licensed electrician. Not to mention, it's the law in most states anyway..
You now have a worm that people are being led to believe that is a "trustworthy" worm.
Sure it is. But wait. As it moves around, it will be hijacked and mutated into something bad. It will pickup a package along the way and drop it in your box, and because you are led to believe that it's a "good" worm you'll welcome it.
This is NOT smart computing. It's not responsible, by any means. If you don't take action of your own accord, you are lazy and stupid and you deserve whatever bad things happen to you because of it.
Fix your own problems or pull the plug. If you can't handle it, you have no business using a computer..
In Merry Old England, they have refined the solar cell to be much more efficient. I read that a company had developed solar cells that are up to 30% efficient. They claim that these solar cells can provide high output even in the ever cloudy and foggy days of England.
With the new extremely bright LED's available now, you could light a room with more than enough light to preform your usual tasks, using very little electricity and generating very little heat. You could turn on high power compact for when you need very bright light for brief periods like repairing things, finding something dropped, house cleaning, etc. then turning them back off and using the LED lights.
I've tried it and it's very feasable.
I'm also trying to build a sterling engine that I'll mount to the focal point of a 14' satellite dish I have, to track the sun and generate free power, heating and cooling. I spend a lot of my time working on such designs.
I designed and built a solar powered heater that you put in your window like an air conditioner. It works fine, runs totally free and is very quiet and 100% zero pollution. Problem is placement. You have to have your house *just right* for this to benefit you. So, it's a limited market idea.
There's a million things people can do to help. I recycle things, like old appliances. I take people's old appilances, repair them, clean them up and make them look and work like new then resell them to people that appreciate getting a good appliance for a fraction of the price of a new one.. Not to mention, it keeps stuff out of the landfill too..
"Your rant is just more typical liberal jibberish bullshit"
LOL!! That's grand! I'm so diametrically opposed to liberalism that it's not even funny. I'm so far to the right that I think that Fox news is a subversive pinko commie, leftwing propaganda machine.

I take people's old appilances, repair them, clean them up and make them look and work like new then resell them to people that appreciate getting a good appliance for a fraction of the price of a new one.. Not to mention, it keeps stuff out of the landfill too..

LOL!! That's grand! I'm so diametrically opposed to liberalism that it's not even funny. I'm so far to the right that I think that Fox news is a subversive pinko commie, leftwing propaganda machine.
