Well, after you've gotten into Linux on your Linksys router, when you have the source there's things you can make the hardware do that the original designers did not think of.
Epic Games' much-anticipated Unreal Tournament 2003 Demo is now available on a self-booting Gentoo Linux-based LiveCD, allowing you to play the Unreal Tournament 2003 Demo using any modern PC with an NVIDIA GeForce 2 or greater graphics card and a CD-ROM drive. Full networking, OSS sound and Creative Soundblaster Live! and Audigy support included, allowing for the full gaming experience including LAN/Internet play, EAX environmental audio and of course 3D accelerated OpenGL graphics. The CD also serves as a fully-functional Gentoo Linux installation CD. You can download the CD using this link.
I hated the PSX because of the LOADING... screens. You lose the fast-paced action of games when you don't have fast access to the media, like a cartridge.
Many guys at factory jobs clock in/out for other guys and people just leave the site.
I worked at Johnson Controls, making car interiors. Sure, factory job, but you've gotta clock in on time or else. You'd get fired and they'd find someone else with a pulse to take your job.
At Best Buy you had to have a manager punch you in/out if you weren't within 7 minutes of your scheduled time. This way they can control hours down to the minute.
At Applebee's they have what's called "Apple Time". You were supposed to show up 5 or 15 minutes before your shift and get ready for the day. They'd even pay you the extra hour or whatever you would be there during the week by getting there early.
I worked for a mom+pop network shop, and we were all salaried. The problem was, the cunt that worked up front would record what time we all came in and would email them all to the boss.

How about when you get a god damn ticket for going 73 in a 70...That's more comparable to 1 minute late.
By saying you should get docked for one minute late is like saying you should get a ticket for 1 mph/kph over the speed limit.

Dell spends more than Apple on R&D. What's wrong with you?

All they care about is their accessory and service plan #'s
If you need some innovative R&D and designing stuff like algorithms or optimization routines, hire Russians.
A colleague tried that. They got all drunk on vodka and made some program with colored blocks. I think it was called Tetris.
You can hire ten Indian programmers for what you pay 2 here in the USA.
The PS2 wasn't really any better than a top of the line PC at it's release.

Doesn't your laptop have a 'sleep' feature?
You really don't need to turn the thing off and then on every time.
Stick it in the closet or in a cupboard or something.

"Richard learns to quit being sarcastic"
Marketing/Sales meeting - yellowTab corporate offices:
"So, any idea on how we're going to increase sales and save this company?"
"Anyone?"
"Richards? What's your idea?"
"We could sell....BeOS systems....I guess"
*snickers*
"Great idea, Richards. Lets get started this!"
"Sir, I was just..."
"You were just saving this company! You're going to go places here! I like your style!"
What about him constantly resizing his xterm and changing the font and size?
You don't remember the Gentoo/Unreal Live CD?

You did read the Terms of Service before you subscribed, right?
Buy Nintendo. Save Nintendo, and you get all their IP.
If I can save up money, at minimum wage (6.75/hr) in 3 months, anyone can save up for a powerbook.
Assuming you work full time, 40 hours a week, pay taxes...
$200 a week. 13 weeks (3 months/91 days) you've got $2,600 assuming you didn't spend a single dime.
"In Elite, we made shooting another space craft illegal, so the player had to think before opening fire."
Works that way in GTA too, you shoot someone, you get arrested.
You've gotta be somewhat covert.
"an issue of good, solid engineering" and that "a few years ago, nobody thought it would be possible to get a G4 processor in a PowerBook"
Sounds like...."One day, computers will only take up one room in a house and cost under $100,000" the old Popular Science quote.
Job title is "IT Specialist" but it should be "Bitch"
Since it's slowed down, I've had to take on other tasks
Running all the outgoing mail through the postage meter.
Checking UPS shipments
Ordering/stocking office supplies
etc etc
Yuck.
Nobody told me Microsoft opened a steel mill?
I'm always on time since we started getting bagels/donuts. Ever been the last guy to get a donut or bagel?
The cream cheese is all dirty, the donuts are all picked over...
You could have a buddy clock you in or something.
