Same goes for depression. Pisses me off. If I feel physical pain (which I only ever really did once, after jawbone surgery which IS hell, talk about taking twice the allowed dose of painkillers and still be close to going nuts), people even tell me not so suffer and to take some painkiller but when I'm depressed (which I have been for the better part of 2003) they do everything they can to stop me from seeing a shrink or god forbig start with Prozac or something.
Society is so fucked up, it's ok not to want to suffer of physical pain but emotional pain you're supposed to endure.
Just why should we even care? Why should I want them to spend my taxmoney on backups in space so in case we all nuke ourselves there will be some humans left? There's absolutely no benefit in there for us.
Now if you were to go mining planets for whatever resources there are, go on. But don't use my tax money on it. Like wise if you think the survival of 100 humans as opposed to 6 billion is so important to spend trillions of dollars on them, you may well go. Just make sure I don't find out it was partly paid for by myself. If I were paying taxes in the US, I'd be very pissed off by the fact that they shoot people into orbit doing nothing useful up there that couldn't be done by much cheaper means. (Why exactly does it matter how some experiments turn out in zero gravity? It's not like we live in a place where that applies).
Not that I support child molesting but how is downloading kiddie pron supporting those sites?
If he pays for it, that is another thing but in that case, law enforcement will sooner or later come knock his door anyway (you gotta be REALLY REALLY stupid to pay for childporn if you ask me).
Then again, what does even constitute as child porn? I mean I have a 19 year old friend who could pass as 15 or 21 solely on what she's wearing that day...
It's a box nobody needs. It's a pain to hit Tab to get there or to use the mouse. I won't use it, that's for sure. Now the "g query" solution sounds sane, but for the time being, I'll stick to Mozilla.
One thing's for sure, even if I could care less for the cruft Mozilla comes with, I'm not gonna use Firebird until they support hitting down arrow to search on Google.
No, must have been B&O. They sound worse than Bose, look very stylish and cost about ten times more than normal speakers delivering much better performance.
Friend of mine has a 20000EUR B&O setup (beamer is Epson IIRC but else it's B&O). Any 4000EUR setup would sound better but of course not look so good.
The thousands of organizations trying to find the next genius to tout on their shoulders. Most people that enter Mensa are brought in because they're expected from a young age to be members.
I don't like institutions and the few times when such organizations actually were around, I told them to fuck off which is the only sane thing to do, else you end up burnt even faster than you'd otherwise. I couldn't care less for NGOs and the like unless their paychecks match the ones I can get in the real world. Networking my ass, the people you meet in such organizations are mostly useless. Tell you what, economic lectures are the best thing for networking. You want to get up fast, you need to be nice to the people who decide on that very issue (never mind that the economics majors usually come closest to my political views, anyway. Unlike the social sciences crowd, they dropped their ideals long ago and are now mostly realists). There's only so far I go out of my way to achieve something. If it involves changing my political views because some otherwise nice and smart girl won't accept them (been there, didn't do it, won't ever do it, either), tough shit.
I did bring up a working solution.
Your solution is about as useful as everything I'd be telling others if I cared, i.e. not at all. In fact, I'd be telling them the exact same crap while knowing that it won't solve the problem. Preaching "common sense" ain't gonna change anything.
This society is DEEPLY fucked up (in a very different way than the US society is but no less). Going out is not gonna change that but makes you realize just how bad it actually is. And one can get drunk wherever.
Get your ass outta your house, or stop commenting on how people just don't interest you on an intellectual level.
So you're suggesting I should be screwing white trash. No interest. As you said, there's a price we pay and in this case, the reward is far from being worth the price.
You obviously aren't that smart if you can't figure out the solution to your own problems, including laziness.
Point is: there's no actual incentive to figure out what to do. Replacing one sucky state with another one is just plain wasting resources. If I'd care enough for getting laid, I could go to a whore, it's not like I couldn't afford it.
Binary search... uh, so what. If you implemented an AVL tree, then come talk to me. I clean re-wrote the entire string function set along with sorting algorithms when I was 12, because it was fun. Swing your dick a little bit more.
It's not all too hard to reimplement quicksort with Knuth on your hands. Now if you implemented divide and conquer algorithms without EVER having even heard of the concept, that would look differently.
Coming from someone who admits they're a loser, I think you are full of shit.
Why am I even bothering with people like you? Since you obviously ain't got anything better to do either, you aren't in the position to bitch at others. Much less as you didn't bring up anything original or, gasp, a working solution.
If I were to sell such a device, I certainly would NOT advertise it on slashdot.
as the one in Shuttle SK41G?
Grrr, Mozilla must have filled in some past subject here...

Make that girls instead of supermodels so we all get a chance...
> and other sophisticated port tracking mechanisms Care to elaborate on those (aside of cvsup, I mean)?
FreeBSD 5 can take up to 20 snapshots.
Clearly, you must be working with SAP.
Since you'll never want to use another Unix, that's not a big show stopper there ;-)
I bet you can find people outside the US that are willing to do those for money. I mean DDoSing trackers is obviously easier than going after them.
Or is it just my ISP?
If Microsoft were to go Unix (don't hold your breath) they'd go FreeBSD. And no, they wouldn't open source it.
No. As soon as they actually ship, I'm gonna get a 30 GB iPod. The Neuros is way over sized.
If it's a geek party, the one thing you think about probably WON'T happen.

they should do that for email instead...

You honestly expect me to type search if I want to search google? WTF are you? My mother telling me to clean up my flat?
One thing's for sure, even if I could care less for the cruft Mozilla comes with, I'm not gonna use Firebird until they support hitting down arrow to search on Google.

You mean we won't see anymore plots of people's productivity in relation to the last time they had an orgasm? Doooh.
It'd be about time Sun ported it to FreeBSD (the ONE thing lacking from it) but as you know, FreeBSD is dying so why bother.

Newsflash, if you are that smart, they find you.
Whom will find me?
