Why is it that it's considered an achievement to have a girlfriend/boyfriend? Do you understand that, for some of us, there are better things to do that putting up with another person's crap for the rest of our life and that sex is not that important?
The mouse buttons, I believe, run the entire length of the mouse...
You might just be right. At first I thought that the buttons were those small things on the sides, which would at least make the mouse something that one could use. But if it is the case that the mouse is really all button then the desctiption of it being a mueseum piece is quite true, as it fits what some would say would be the first prerequisite: no practical use.
And here's even better advice when looking for an internship: get someone inside a tech company that doesn't normally do internships to ask around to see if they want to get an intern. Really, the ideal situation you want is to create the internship position, in which case you have a high possibility of being the only applicant! Then there's no difficult interview or application packet. I'm working an internship this summer, and this is how I got it. I made it into town on my spring break for the "interview" which was short and sweet, and more an outline on what I would be spending my time working on. And no, I'm not going to give out a company name. I would rather not have any compitition for the next time I want to work there, either.
Then the off campus bookstore needs to supply students with the same cost deferment until finantial aid comes through. That's the way it's done around the University of Florida. It's also probably the way that the bookstores get most of their money. All you have to do is bring in a printout of your expected finantial aid total. Not that I've tried it yet, I'd rather use the good old pay now option when I have the money.

Before picking up Naked Sun, get Caves of Steel. That's what Asimov started that trilogy with, and it's quite an amazing book (probably the best of the three, too). Earth people dealing with robots, overpopulation, and an upperclass of people called 'spacers.' It's just got more substance than the agrophobic Baley, an earth detective, seeing another planet and some scary open spaces.
This could put the students at a horrible disadvantage. Things really depend on their major, though. Anyone doing something like a CIS degree would get little experience of what they actually need, and that's working with Microsoft products in a Microsoft world. The deal seems something on the immoral side, too. What would you all be saying had Microsoft issued a deal paying colleges to only use their software in order to produce a workforce that can only use MS software?
Yeah, but what happens when these 'smart' guns really get smart and start aiming for you, maybe something of a friendly fire option to keep people your family safe. It's not something that should be forced upon people, but improvement can be made until people actually want it, that is if they can afford it.
Problem is that it's all about the price. There is a difference between an oiled piece of metal and something wired with a circit board and sensors. It will be heavy and unreliable in its first few models. There are many things that could keep me from buying one of these.
by this is the people that sell guns in New Jersey. It's like outlawing fireworks, people just go across the state line to get them.
So if you want a cheap gun get an older used one that isn't 'smart' or bring your business elsewhere. I'm sure that the shop owners will be pretty pissed off, and that this won't help lower crime at all. I'm glad that legislatures look ahead, I just hope that they are planning on repealing the law once the technology comes up to speed on the issue. That would be a really good plan.
Seems to me that the idea was something different. He wants the company to feel good about it, and yet still not able to sell the code to other people. I'd much rather leave out some key libraries, so that they'd still love me until the time came for them to compile the program. And sure, I'd be able to compile it for them (or sell them an update). They can't really do anything with incomplete code anyway, except maybe more fully understand the program, which is probably a good thing for them to do anyway.
Some people have some strange problems, and it's not for us to attempt to understand them. Why is she so pissed off about a recommendation for Road Trip? I'd rather not really find this out. I would also not like to know what made the writer of this article include this stupid fact. The thing about the people messing with TiVo was funny, but there's always people that are irrationally angry at things, when does that cross the line and become newsworthy from the everyday irration that we have to live with from all around us?
Something I remember from a while ago is that car rental companies might use something like this. At that price car rental companies can fine you a couple of times for driving too fast, which they can now find out about, and it's already payed for, earning them money while they watch your every move. As if the internet wasn't good enough to track you everywhere.
The problem is that ground is better. Cars go quite fast enough, and while traffic is really bad the fact remains that after a small collision nobody falls to their deaths. And can you imagine the noise pollution from the rotors? Think of one of those things taking off from your neighbor's driveway! Cars are fine for me, where I don't have to worry about watching for other vehicles in 3D, hey it's hard enough when you don't have cars coming up from underneath you cutting you off! We're still on the ground all the time because it's just a better place to be.

Well yes, the average troll would probably be very good at solving this problem, but is that really appropriate use of mod points?

And yet this article mentions that Microsoft gets to cover itself with their own representatives that will probably come home crying
And why would anyone being payed by Microsoft want to support open sourced software? especially when they'd get so much money otherwise?
