It makes sense that you wouldn't like an evolution article. It obviously hasn't been very kind to you.
About your sig... If Liberalism is a mental disorder, the founding fathers must have been some crazy motherf*ckers. If you hate America so much, why don't you leave?
No, we can fix our own machines. We just don't need to. We buy new ones with the money we save on support/repairs/time. "Oh, but you can't upgrade a iMac!!!" They're call EXTERNAL peripherals, dumbass. Just bought my aging G3 a new 120gb HD.
By the way, how's that spyware treating you? Looked at any JPGs lately? Good luck with SP3!!!
FYI: Not every company does the merit-based-raise. I'm 24, so in my company that amounts to 4% over two years. Also known as jack shit. Nevermind all of the old mainframe guys come to me with every stupid html/javascript question you can think of...
So even though I get more done than everyone else, I try to keep it close... by reading Slashdot all of the time.
I was trying to keep my zealotry a secret, but powerbooks have always worked the longest for me. I have two Dells, the older one gets around three and a half hours, the newer one only gets around two and a half.
On the other hand, sometimes I forget to plug in my powerbook and somewhere in the last third of an eight-hour day, I'll realize it and plug it in. I use to run it on batteries to use iTunes during parties. Its never fully died on me.
If it was a (anatomically correct) woman, I'd marry it.
They have windows because you're in a technology school! If you had Macs, you wouldn't learn as much because they would work! You wouldn't have to spend time learning how to troubleshoot Windows, which is what you're there for anyway, right? If all the computers worked, how would they teach you how to fix it? I'm guessing they don't have a 'If-it-ain't-broke...' class.
Now before you reply, it's called 'humor' and 'sarcasm'. Not to be confused with zealotry.
Speaking of Macs, I managed to crash mine the other day. If you count the time I tried and succeeded to get a blue(black on Mac)screen on the OS X Public Beta, that makes twice.
Your job is to explain this world to them, not to shelter them from it. Nipples are unavoidable. Why not take the five minutes to explain what a nipple is, why it's been demonized, and that it will make a lot more sense when she's older. Wait a year, repeat.
It should be a wake up call that so many people are willing to have the government automate their parenting.
Parenting is a responsibility. Own up to it or your child will pass on the same dysfunctions
I always listen on shuffle. When Anita Hill's 'Ring My Bell' or Bobby Brown's 'My Prerogative' comes on I can deny that it's mine and blame someone else, usually someone I don't really like. "Oh that must of been on that one CD I got from so-and-so". It works.
They sent out a memo on cardstock (assuming people would actually read it if it was cardstock) telling us to cut down on the number of unnecessary copies and duplicate forms. We have 4500 employees. They told us to use email instead. Then they sent out a memo (regular paper. I think they could hear us laughing already) stating that they were blocking all attachments. I hung that one on my wall. And made copies.
Burn a bunch of iTunes with copywrite protection. The format on the disc will now be AIFF. Put the new disc back in. Re-rip (Using iTunes, if you like). No more 'FairPlay'. Not that I'd do it, I'm just saying...
I have bought songs from iTunes. I was fine with only burning them twice. But because I can't burn with iTunes (No idea why), I was forced to use the Toast Lite that came with the burner. It wasn't until I had put an iTune on about five different mixes that I realized I was (Gasp!) 'circumventing the DMCA'! Of course I quickly microwaved the discs and scattered them at sea. Then I realized I had just dumped toxic waste in the ocean. I quickly wrote a letter to the EPA telling them I was going to have to move my business to another country if they decided to pursue any legal action. Then I sent the Republican Party a check for $2,000. Then I threw a big party at a hotel, got the Bush twins drunk, and took pictures of them taking lines.
The moral of the story? Don't cheat, unless you're a good cheater with lots o' dough.
First off, PGE is owned by Enron. Portland wants to buy it, but Enron wants to dissect it and sell the assets to pay off debts, and have rate-payers help with the debt. OK, not exactly, but something like that.
Second, nobody wants to own PGE Park. It's not profitable. Our weeklies usually have a least one article a month about some poor, old, rich bastard who can't pay the City of Portland for rent.
Third, PGE Park lost power not too long ago. This is the park with Portland General Electric in the name! They can't even keep their own power on! Blocking Wi-Fi? It's probably science fiction to them.
I agree with a previous poster, this is no slugfest. This is a bloated 600-pound gorilla complaining about someone else's scent covering their foul odor...
BTW, Portland itself kicks major yahoo.
There has to be education. If nobody knew that Heroin is addictive and can kill you, I'd be willing to bet a lot more people would be riding the H-train. I know I would. People with addictive personalities need to be educated about what certain things will do to them.
I am an addict of many things (Coffee, Cigs, biting my nails, etc.). It took me 4 years to realize that I had spent 9 months of those 4 years playing computer games. This was before Everquest. I won't blame my failed marriage on video games, but I will not rule out the fact that they aggravated our problems. I have since thrown out all of my consoles, and computer games. I get an occasional fix at a friend's house, but it's still hard to get me away from it once I'm playing, no matter what the game.
I'm not saying that video games are as addictive as Heroin, but they're worse than coffee. I won't disregard what someone is saying because I'm enjoying a particularly good cup of coffee. I have a friend who has gone through 4 playstations destroying them out of anger. He can't even count how many controllers he's broken. I have another friend who has attended one social event in 5 years. It was a New Year's Party. He had to leave early. He was celebrating the holiday 4 times (time zones) with his clan. I don't have a coffee clan.
There is a reason my friends and I refer to games as "crack". When a person is playing they are "cracking out". Co-worker quote: "I'm going home to sleep. I cracked out till four last night."
Yes we can blame the people who play. They are addicts. But they are uneducated addicts.

Sorry, sometimes I like to throw their own stupid rhetoric back at them...
You, sir, are an idiot.

I called them the Gingerbread Crakers...
Your replying anonymously to someone you think is a sissy? Your brawn must match your brain... Puny.

They're not using an Xserve.
And I had a 'planned' puking last night. Right after my 'scheduled' passing out.
Maybe this is there 'novel' idea of dealing with Slashdotting. They're trying to get on the list for next year.
I was afraid one of my co-workers would read this...
Go ahead and keep asking me the stupid questions, and I'll continue pretending you actually still do something beside cycle power.
Cause I was SOOOO busy working...

You just have to give up sleeping.
Not that you were getting any in the first place, huh, tiger? RRROOOWWWW!!

Doesn't this make Sony a drug cartel?
