I understand the whole concept of "Hey, I paid my tuition, I can do attend class attentively whether I want to or not."
But I think another reason these Profs might be getting frustrated is that perhaps there were some individuals who could have been enrolled in the class but couldn't because of a size limit.
Perhaps that student would have been very interested in the course, and would have achieved a greater mark than that of the slacker.
what the hell is the point of posting such a thing if it can't withstand the slashdot load? honestly? what purpose does it serve? none! i think there should be some hardware requirements in order for a site to be linked to from slashdot.
those geniuses at slashdot should seriously think of something soon before i go postal.
There are so many god damned blogs out there, that they just average blogs in general to be boring, uninteresting, and just plain shit.
I really don't see the interest of reading about someone else's daily activities unless they happened to be extraordinarily interesting, or of great contrast to what you usually do.
Most of them involve people posting about their lack of Cheerios in the cereal selection, and how they dropped a five dollar bill in the sewer today. Yawn yawn boring. I encourage you, if you are a blogger, to make up lies and throw some violence, sex, and perhaps a little crime into your posts. That way they aren't just existing, they're intertwining with the existence of other people's interest.
I grew up using Windows 3.1. My dad didn't know that much more about computers than I did, so I was originally the one who first decided to try out linux (rh 5.2 to be exact). That was when I was in grade 9, so I was... 12 or 13 or something.
I just think you should let your kids use Windows for now, and when they discover there's more than just it for themselves, let them choose whether or not they want to give Linux a shot. Personally before I tried decided to actually give linux a shot, I didn't give a flying fuck what OS I was using, I only really care about whether or not I could play my games and shit like that.
No one wants buy god damn mp3s online. They want something they can hold in their hands! And also, how many freakin' people have credit cards? I'm talking about the whole lot of kids and teenagers who are the main target market for a lot of music these days.
Stop with these horseshit schemes and drop the prices of fucking CDs already. They should slice the price of CDs in half, and then I'd start buying them again. Those greedy bastard musicians can then realize what it means to work for their money.
What if..
1) My neighbour is singing a Michael Jackson song in his shower, I record him doing so. (The audio people, the audio!)
2) He sounds so much like Michael Jackson I decide to make an mp3 of it and share it with people on my Kazaa or w/e
3) Well hell, he sounds exactly like Michael Jackson, so now everyone thinks its actually him singing the song. Everyone is d/l it!
Now, no one has profitted from this at all. So if I were to record it off the radio and share it on the net, the radio is profitting and so is the artist? So if it's considered theft to distribute free copies of a radio recording, what about if I distribute free copies of a.. "shower" recording?
Is this what America has come to in order to enrich their business? What ever happen to one business helping out another?
Of course the agreements have all been signed and such, but for god's sake, K-Mart isn't going to suddenly pull a competitive new OS out of their ass and throw it on the market.
"Army leaders estimate the total cost for U.S. Department of Defense corrosion-related problems at $10 billion per year -- $2 billion of which is related to painting and paint-scraping operations. "
what in the name of all thats holy are they basing these figures on? $2 billion dollars to paint stuff? jesus christ, if i knew painters were making so much money i'd have become one myself.
I buy a buncha songs, and I say, hey you there, I will trade you some of my songs, for some of yours. The guy says, ok let's trade. Or even, trading video games? If I in fact deleted my copy after sending it to the person I'm trading with. Would that be illegal?

they had the procedure for making a Jar Jar Binks.
i'd make one, then throw it in my fireplace and enjoy the show.

Does this mean vegetarians no longer have an excuse to not eat meat?
Attach GPS compatible tracking devices inside the computers.
By the time they've realized the hate for the game, they're addicted. So this is not an "easy" solution.

I think you've been misinformed. James Cameron is not the director of the new Terminator 3 film. It was directed by Jonathan Mostow.

Last time I checked my urine still had the same taste as Budweiser. Not that I drink my own urine..
And what would happen should the system happen to malfunction and shutdown locking the passengers inside with a limited supply of air?
