Maybe team up with the marketing guys at Chick-fil-a and have cows shoving chicken down your throat and selling you a (linux) computer at the same time.
42 million miles sounds like a lot, but that's not even half of an AU (1 AU is the distance from the Earth to the Sun). I'm not sure the point of my post, maybe it makes us seem more insignificant, or maybe not. I'm not sure.:)
Users and groups permissions started changing randomly for a few hours afterwards. It was not a fun day. I didn't write the script or even execute it, so I don't know why it happened, but I (and a few other IT people) got to clean up the mess.
I've only used it on Windows 2000, so I can't offer advice on which to pick, but I can tell you that it isn't wise to dump over 2500 users in to Active Directory with a script. AD will not like it, trust me.:)
My important passwords I commit to memory, but ones that aren't so important I toss in a little program I found a few months ago called Whisper. Whisper stores usernames/passwords, will generate random passwords, and allows you to copy a password to clipboard quite easily. Anyway, the program lets you password protect your password file, so I did that. A few days go by and I open my password file and type in my password. "Wrong password. Failed to open document."
Assuming the ISS is still there once the booster module gets there. Flamebait, I know, but really, it'd be better to skip the middle part because it may not always be there (and it would suck to have to redesign the whole thing just because you lose a space station).
Very cool. Next, record yourself talking, convert to MP3, and set that as the "hold music."
"Okay, I'm back. Hah! Just kidding, just a recording. You're still on--hey, sorry about that, anyway as we were sayin--HAH! Tricked you again! You're on hold! You! Are! On! Hold! You're on hold! Hold! Hold! Lalala! You'--"
Can a reverse firewall tell the difference between spam being sent out, and someone emailing his entire family with good news about his daughters report card?
Sure. Setup a basic word filter to look for "enlarge" and "penis." Stop all e-mail that matches.;)
Yeah, reminds me when I used a flood light at three in the morning during the winter to try and film a scene... not pretty. What a long night that was (editing was a bitch, too).
I'd recommend using at least two flood lights. Or maybe filming during the day--especially when you want it to look like day.:)
10 years? It really does seem like yesterday. Shit! I was thirteen! My dad took me up to the local science type place where they had telescopes lined up. I peered through the telescope and I was able to see "a bruise" on Jupiter! Jupiter! I thought it was quite cool and I've been hooked ever since. I hope more celestial events like this take place in my lifetime.
Well, I don't even use my PDA for practical purposes anymore. My PDA sits on my end table and listens for voice commands that control my TV, DVD, etc. It's just an expensive $300 voice activated remote control now (and a bad one at that).
I'm by no means an expert, but doesn't the metabolism of insects (such as mosquitos) destroy the HIV virus? Is there anyway we can use that to help develop a cure?
Majel or Mabel?
If you're referring to the computer voice from the Star Trek shows, then it should be Majel (Barrett Roddenberry). I don't know who Mabel is.;)
...in five years after the entire world is hooked on it, we'll see, "Have you been taking MOLECULE DIET PILLS and started bleeding UNCONTROLABLY? If so, YOU could get up to $1,000,000 in damages! Call 1-800-NO-BLEED!" commercials.
Unless this thing can leave Earth orbit, what's the point? I don't wanna turn 33 and hear about the newest space technology that will now allow us to fly circles around the Earth.

Or not.

Yeah, that sucked.

How do you tell your porn apart? Or do you simply not care? *sigh*
Better idea...

Be sure to send this book to your parents then send them here.

My mom didn't find it that funny..

I find it amazing that HP can make money some days...
They sell lemonade on the side.

The Tesla coil where I work produces ozone. I have no problem running that thing all. day. long.
I've had grey since I was in the 7th grade. Three IT jobs later, and I have SO much more (seriously (and yes, they were all Windows users)).
Now I'm doing something less stressful: working two jobs and going back to school.
Maybe this will help? I can't really think of a simple way to explain it. They're a lot of fun to play with, though. :)
FUCK YEAH! GO MIKE!
Imagine the rest in caps: Congrats to the entire team! You guys did a helluva job!

What about the Babylonians getting a big fat check for inventing the zero? It would seem Kasner owes them one hundred big checks. :)

...when I see this planet's natural satellites!
Joking aside, this is pretty cool. But the star is a white dwarf. Will this technique work (if it even works now) on brighter, bigger stars?
