Yah, but it only takes one sick slob to cough a phlem-ball on his hand and wipe it on the cloth seat to get the effect that the original poster was making.
Put in what you want to buy on the web site, then the cart display shows WHERE the item actually is located in the store. One thing that sucks about the big box stores is finding everything. This would rock, if it was truly a map and not some etherial voice "Take 5 steps ahead, turn right, take 10 steps..."
Even better use the "Right Turns Only" mapping software that UPS (or FedEx?) uses to plot the best path to follow to obtain all your items.
Yah, I used to beleive that. Now it's more like "Send in your subscriptions, and waste your time."
I've been here for years, have a four digit ID, and have NEVER had one of my stories posted. Sure, let's say most of them are crap, boring, stupid, lame, but I'd think at least ONE of them would have gotten thru in the last decade. I've seen a lot worse ideas actually get posted.
I'm not angry, I just don't give a crap any more. The other day, after years of not submitting anything, I tried another one, it was about Jack Thompson suing the Omaha Police Chief to get the video game records of the mall shooter. Seemed perfect for Slashdot. Bounced, rejected, nobody got their version posted either.
Just reaffirmed my belief that Slashdot is ran by tin-foil-hat wearing lizard conspiracy overlords trying to turn us slashdotters into mindless consumers.:)
I know we're talking CDs, not DVDs here, but the same thing applies as far as "The legal alternative is a worse product, not just a more expensive product." - over Christmas at my parents I gave my little boy two DVDs: Pirates of the Caribbean III and The Wild.
We had a three hour drive back home from grandma/grandpas. I've got an RCA car DVD player (Kind you strap on the head restraint of the front seats so the kids in the back can watch it.) - It would not play EITHER ONE. It plays older DVDs just fine, but would not play either of those. Really bullshit, since I actually paid for the damn things, but they've got them DRMd so bad I cannot play them even though trying to use them in an unarguably legal way.
Even funnier - I got home, threw them into my computer, and DVD Ripper Pro had zero problems ripping them to DivX format. None at all. So what the fuck is the point of these DVDs having this DRM "protection" on them? I can not play them legally, but can rip/play/share them just fine.
What have these idiots created? I don't think I'll be buying any more DVDs, not if they won't play on a standard DVD player. Dumb shits.
Going to the dentist will become much more painful - Novacaine and Lidocaine that they use to deaden pain-sensing nerves are nothing but cocaine with a different name.
Little boy, before you get cocky, I even used NT 3.1. Of course by the time I got it installed from the giant pile of floppies (Seriously, this was before most computers has CD drives) it originally came on, NT 3.5 had been released.
I'm the opposite here. I tried 64-bit Vista and had all kinds of problems. Switched to XP x64 and other than having to spend the first couple days finding the right drivers, I've had no problems with it. Solid as a rock.
(Other than all the web sites out there with shitty Flash content, and Adobe's unwillingness, or ineptness, to release a 64 bit version of Flash. And this affects both XP and Vista x64.)
Does anyone know of where to get a 64-bit version of Cisco's VPN client? That's the one last serious hurdle for me. I have to run a 32bit version of XP in VMWare on my 64 bit machine so that I can connect to work.
It's just like the quantum paradox of particle-waves (Light, etc) - Maybe that's why we see a paradox, it's a wave when processed as data, but a particle when processed as code.
I don't know if "processed" is the correct word to use, but gets sort of close. Maybe just "when it exists as" would be a better term to use. Which still doesn't make a whole lot of sense either, but these concepts tend to get weird when we try to represent them as text.
BLOG is one of those words just like FOSS. Totally lame-sounding, had to have been made up by a dumbass. Sick of hearing either term. Say Open Source, or say Web Log. Don't mushmouth them together.
Apparently not wanting to waste time constantly having to worry about memory leaks and having malloc and free peppering your code is considered lazy.
Other than the lack of memory utilization commands, which are completely unneccessary in.NET, C# is basically C++ with some minor syntactical differences.
The way I see it, if I can do 10% less work than you, but still get same same amount of work done, then call me lazy any day!

So basically you're suggesting here that we spend thousands of dollars in order to masturbate to an image of Winona Ryder? That's your best argument?
Yah, but it only takes one sick slob to cough a phlem-ball on his hand and wipe it on the cloth seat to get the effect that the original poster was making.
Joe, we've asked you before - please don't smoke pot at work.
Then your security people are incompetent and you should consider getting a real job with a real company.

That's not how http://babelfish.altavista.com/ translates it.
Oh, I thought it meant Rabbits Puppies and Gerbils. Sorry.
Somebody's gonna hit the thing with an RPG? What, they're going to invoke a magic missile spell against it?
Dude, you've been playing too much D&D...

Qi Gong? Isn't that the guy who got killed by Darth Maul? Didn't look so tough to me.
Oh, you're supposed to swing AND DUCK??!!
Damn, no wonder I keep getting the shit beat out of me.

/dev/null to you! :)
So
Interesting. Maybe I should try it. (Vista 64)
Maybe.
How much slower is it than XP 64? Negligible or noticible?
Don't worry, I couldn't make much sense or find much relevance about that guys reply either. I wonder if he somehow replied to the wrong message?
Well, he would have, if the Matrix had came out the same time as The Empire Strikes back.

Are you fucking kidding me?
I AM at work, you insensitive clod! :)
Nice sociopathic attitude.
