I haven't set foot in, much less bought anything from, Best Buy in close to four years. Their college kid employees were exceptionally rude to me on one day, and I haven't returned since. They've survived, I've survived, end of story.
she's a fucking woman, what'd you expect? intelligent, rational behavior? especially from a twenty-something? she's just another no-count ignored by daddy and only now realizing she's angry about it
the world's full of 'em. the only thing about this chick is that she's not even cute; I wouldn't hit it with YOUR wing-wang.
Great choice. Talk about someone totally bereft of talent. For Pete's sake, unless he's running and shooting a gun, don't expect much. The limit of range for his characters is switching from a six-shooter to a semi-automatic.
I haven't even seen all three movies, only the first, and I was extremely impressed. No, I take that back; I was astounded. It made me think, and reinforced that thinking, since the Matrix final films were released: if the type of level of effects were possible in TT & ROTK, why was Matrix so, and everything else, so bad? In my opinion, it makes the Matrix a pop music phenomenon, and ROTK a classical masterpiece. At any rate, we'll certainly see how much Hollywood politics weighs in once the Oscar decision is announced.
I honestly have never been able to understand why someone would choose a career they have no great intrest in simply because they could make fairly good money.
There were a high number of people I schooled with that were in computer science because they "wanted to learn about computers". These students were from the population who continue to believe that computer programming is glorified data entry. It dang sure ain't.
uh, I know that's a great deal for a Mac, but I can build a new machine damn for around that cost, and with hardware that is only a generation or two older (at the most) than state of the art.
Hey, at least Microsoft supported 98 for five years; neither Red Hat nor Apple will do that.
Lets get one thing straight: open source is not perfect, and Microsoft is not the only company to write proprietary software; they just happen to be the most successful one. But everyone, from open source advocates to Larry Ellison, knocks MS just because it's the trendy thing to do. But in my experience, based on 10+ years as a both a developer and user of *nix & Windows, Microsoft makes a better product, and it's much closer to perfect than open source will ever be.
I don't know who "Jenni" is, nor Robert Smith, nor Steven Morrissey, or even what the A&P grocery store is, and I am what I would consider "old as dirt", and I don't feel one shred of indignity about it. I read the article about her site, the death threats, etc., and regarding the closing of the site I simply ask (rhetorically) "Who Cares?"
I remember the pre-GUI days, cassette tapes, BASIC, and 2600 baud modems, and online bulletin boards, and punch cards, and walking across campus to the computing center to wait in line for 3 hours to run payroll and hoping to god it ran correctly because I dropped the goddamn cards on the way there.
So STFU. CHRIST, I FUCKING HATE IT people. Times like this make me wish I had gotten my fucking MBA instead so I could outsource your annoying ass.

...oh, so that's why I never heard of them.
yeah, that's what you get for using a weakly-typed language. you get away with things you shouldn't.
So what are you saying? That you tried to extort Google?!?

No kidding. I want to know what it REALLY looks like, not what they want it to look like.

I held a 3.98 GPA and graduated first in my class
not to be an ass, but I'm wondering how big that class was, if you graduated first with only a 3.98. Where I come from, a 3.98 ain't that great.
...it makes me SO grateful I have my own office and don't work in a cubicle.

Pipes my ass. Anytime I ever connected to AOL I got some crappy 56K connection.
You think people woudn't jump ship to capable word processors like Abi word if .doc was fully documented?
WTF is Abi word? Whoops, guess I haven't jumped ship.

interesting point. I'm still waiting to see if I get sued for having windows in my house.
I retired Windows 98 from my computer a LONG time ago.
