I do the same thing, Mostly beacuse I hate thinking while working at a crappy fast food job, so I try and avoid it, and spend as little thought on it as possible. It also sucks when you realize you messed up and your brain locks up from embassment.
School system sucks here, math is all repetitive and review.
Just reading their frontpage, it stinks of a bias and partisanship worse than Slashdot or Bill O'Riely's mouth.
What does PTC stand for anyways? Partisan Television Complainers?
Fuck them, just write to
editor@parentstv.org
and let them know that most of the country disagrees with them.
I think it was Omega Code 2.
It also had some dumb subtitle about Medigo.
At least the monsters in Doom could be from another dimension, if not from hell. A virus that makes people into monsters sounds more laughable than monsters teleporting in behind you.
look at that!
They look like the power rangers! Hiya! I was hoping for something cooler than Power Rangers. But hey, now once someone gets their hand on it, wait for the mods.
I wonder if there will be a giant screen, and one of the players will use a nintendo powerglove modded to work on PC. That would be totaly sweet, and when I say totaly sweet, I mean really weird.
Just convert the Scab into a american, teach him about how much more you make, and about how you dont got to take shit from anyone and you will get another job, doing something much more intersting and still be making 3x his salary. Or point out that the McDonalds kids make more than him. Remind him that he should never trust the company, don't fuck the scabs skills, make him one of us. If your replacement can go back to India and start demanding higher wages, expect to see jobs coming back to the U.S., in 10 years after all the americans have had their wills pounded as bad as the Indians who now act like Americans. Maybe even the same guy you trained, will train you to take back your job.
I think I'm going to switch away from learning programing and tech and get into management/law. All i gotta do now is practice being a prick, so I will go find small dogs to kick.
IF anything, teach the Indian the most important thing... YOUR NEXT!
what? costomer service is nice, but when i am geting $6.70 an hour, i can really care less about the store, as the store and company do not care about me, the coustomers do not care about me, so why should I care about them? I quit working there because I was getting tired of not getting any breaks because we were too busy. every damn day, and we had less people working there than 4 months before that, but fewer people working, and busier at the same time means we had to do more work for the same amount and the owner made all the money.
I really do not see why everyone complains about McDonalds service, we give you your food, its warm, i say hello, have a bit of conversation if I have time, try to get you out as fast as possible without being rude, as you come to mcdonalds for speed, unless you come in anyways when you can see a line of cars snaking all the way around the building and into the road and complain about it, because, DAMN! i never noticed that there are people waiting.
I will not cheat the store, unless they cheat me, I do not hate the managers as people, or the owner as a person, but when it comes time to me vs. them, they are on the manager side, they try and keep things secret from me, they try and underpay. They do have pressure on them from coperate, so I distrust the coperate too. There is a very good reason there is a short turn-over time at McDonalds. We get treated like were are completely expendable, but are supposed to be for the store. I never Trusted the place, and was too much of a cynic, I somehow stayed there for 2 and a half years, but they hired people for as much as I made after 2 years, so I said fuck it, put in my 2 weeks the day before I was set to be gone for 2 weeks, waited 2 weeks, picked up last check. I do not think they ever cut my checks. They tended to schudle people for around 30 hours a week, and allowed hour swaping pending approval from management, so rarely did any of us kids get over 40 hours, and some of us were forgotten for weeks at a time. I dont ever eat fast food any more and I try and avoid chain resturants, their food is rarely better, I hate the fake atmosphere of the places, I shop at EBgames for games because I have made friends with the people who work there, or knew them before and I tend to hang out there, and there is no such thing as a non-chain store where I live that carries obscure games.
relating back to what wiener said. Attitude is normal, and when costumers come thru acting like snobs and making cracks at us, we just smile and evily say "I hope you ennjjoooy your big and tasty, we made it jusst for you" of couse we never EVER, have done anything to the food that was not to be done, as tainting peoples food is wrong morally, but there is nothing wrong with making them think there is, when they deserve it. People come in and try and lord over us, they do not treat us like human beings, they think they are better than us beacuse they may make more per hour, they assume that people at mcdonalds are stupid, we are not all stupid, except we work at McDonalds.
You skiped most of the damn idea in your quote there, thus changing the entire context of it to make a quick jab at the guy who makes your double quater pounder with cheese supersized fries and diet coke, please, do not upset the guys who make your food, as it can be hard to concentrate on making food properly and not accidently adding in some horrible posion when you are under stress and crying for being insulted.
I worked at McDonalds and the clock out repiets had each time you clocked in and out on them, so first clock in would be (9:00-13:00) for lunch then (13:30-17:00) for the night out. and a big XX:XX if you did not clock in. so I am a bit unsure how you can have your time changed in the middle of the day, as a extra clock-in and out would be noticeable, and I would have gone to the manager right then and there, fuck all the costomers outside and whatever, they can cook their own damn food.
nah, looks like fun, wireless LAN, anywhere, anytime. now if a bunch of these could interlink to each other by proximity (i dont know much about wi-fi) you could in theory make a large network on the back of wi-fi geeks.
I know completely what you mean. I have a auto tech class, and much of the talk seemed similar to computer moding/repair, like how most people do not anything about the car or pc, only pay attention to the idiot lights (a big window that pops up and says "dude, you got a fuxored pc") and never open up the inside. But modding a car is much more difficult than a PC, as due to the fact it has much more parts that can be removed, as opposed to a pc where there are many parts, but are grouped in larger chunks (video card, motherboard, cpu) and once you figure out what is wrong, you either do a software fix, or replace it as fixing the hardware is probably extremely expensive for what you would need to do (fixing a single cell of bad ram), so it would just be cheaper to go buy a new stick of RAM.
Cars on the other hand have several systems, that keep subdividing, and have many removeable parts, as if a piston ring is faulty (think of it as a little bit of the cpu) you car will either not funtcion, or not work good, if it was a cpu, you would toss it, but in a car, you would take the time to trace it to a componet and replace it.
thus, I think overclocking is wanting to be like car modding, but just cannot get the outside respect of car modding. In the long run I think cpu modding is easier (a quick trip into BIOS and maybe 10 minutes of time), but in the long run could be much more difficult (getting tech to let you modify the chips themselfs to work better and other detail modding, even replacing circuits and building faster software). So, we are kind of the next hotrodders, thats why people have lan parties you know.
I thought they found the Beagle sent to mars had been in esex for 150 years, and started going WTF? THEY SENT A MARS ROVER BACK IN TIME BUT NOT TO MARS?
Wow, he lives about 9 miles from me. and the bastard is on comcst cable too! hes stealing my bandwidth! the bastard!
wonder if i should think about doing something funny to his house.. like massive TP in trees and such. Now I know why comcast keeps hiking the price on cable bills around here, becuse he keeps spamming! grrr... so.. anyone know any great pranks that can be done VERY quickly to a house?
well, better the guy who made it, becuse he may be doign a patent to stop another group doign research from getting the patent first and bogging it down in the legal system. to bad you can't patent something "open and free" to stop a greedy person from taking the patent.
gravity moves near the speed of light.95, but with a possible.25 margin of error, so it could be quite a bit slower too. now i think i will ask stupid question. Maybe gravity is some werid reaction, that everything reacts to, on a atomic level or something, it moves slower than light so maybe the atoms or molucles have to "see" and know theres gravity, so its a kind of information... hmmm gravity = information deliverd at lightspeed and activated (.05 the speed of light) later, fun idea.
yeah, he keeps making "kiddy" games, But he makes inovation in design and came up with,well we all know what hes done. While i do enjoy mature games, i dont see the problem with not making them, he doesnt want to, what would be so much better about a mature game? blood? guns? and there are other people making mature games that are good, so we should all be happy nintendo makes "kiddy" games that ARE good
who cares that this got posted, its 3 or 4 am, opps its 5 now, does it really matter that someone posted a casemod story at this time? it is a bit pointless of one. but i dont think there were any important things happening right now.
wow, they got keyboards to work from 150 meters away? thats a bit overkill. and encryption or only having recivers accept transmission from the right keyboard would help, or maybe both, never know when "The man" wants to know you password for logging into slashdot.

What will probably happen is someone will crack the service pack to install on any machine.
They would just use RFIDs gluded to the certificates.
