slashdotting his boss' server? its negative bonus! um, yea. you won't be getting a pay check for the next six months because of the bandwidth fees incurred from YOUR slashdotting.
No wait! If these machines have the default "intel" ssid. well, theyre blank machines anyway. Fine. make an image of the hdd. you won't get anything good anyway cuz the machine is new and has no sensitive data *yet*
no, they have basically mapped out the human genome, but they have no clue what most of it is. ATGC...uh yea...very meaningful.
The way they find genes is that they take a specimen that exhibits a specefic characteristic. say, pigmentation of the skin. then they find a specimen that doesn't show tht characteristic: an albino specimen.
They take the albino specimen, map out its gene, take the "normal" specimen and map out its gene. then its a matter of "hunting" down the gene responsible for the "problem"
so, its basically mapped out, but the genome is a great mystery.
Here in Calif, it is quite different. Dring from San Francisco/San Jose to Los Angeles down I-5, Verizon(CDMA) sucks! (dropped calls, etc) Cingular (GSM) on the other hand goes strong all the way, through the central valley farm land.
hong kong is a special administrative region. That means that it is disconnected from the mainland. Hopefully, that means HK films will still be in circulation. -Grump
No, the plan is that these students graduate. then they turn around and sue the school back for the tution cuz they were forced into doing something "illegal"- which was being forced to use doze.
that guy used to be on artbell (coast to coast am) now where has he gone?
he also had the theory of various civilizations. from abc interview: A type one civilization controls all forms of planetary power. They control the weather, earthquakes, volcanoes, and the ocean. A type two civilization controls the power of a star. They can manipulate and play with stars.
A type three civilization is galactic. They have colonized most of the stars in the galaxy. On this scale, we are type zero -- we get our energy from dead plants, i.e., oil.
We physicists believe that in a hundred to two hundred years we will attain type one status. However, to have warp drive, you must be an advanced type two, or type three, civilization. http://abcnews.go.com/onair/DailyNe ws/chat_kaku112 2.html grump
I'm in san jose, calif. used to know this guy in hs that moved here from vancouver. yea, his stories of french class portrayed how seriously french is taken.
Looking for library desk worker. Pays min wage. Apply at local college.
Campus cafetria. Benefits include meals, and getting harassed at by friends.
Campus computer store- Does this work with my computer? (your an english major. quit asking)
taxi driver- where to?
AOL help desk- I enjoy speaking to idiots all day.
President- no wait, George sure is enjoying his time living off tax payer money.
School principal- Superintendent Chalmers: I've had it with this school, Skinner! Low test scores, class after class of ugly, ugly children... (simpsons)
If you bought the wrong oil, like 20w-50 when your bmw requires 5w-30 (note: I don't actually know what each demands. However, I do think BMW specifies synth stock while GM uses organic stock)
Well, damnit! you put the wrong oil in, the oil wasn't able to protect the engine, and thus lead to engine failure!
However, if you bought an oil that was to the right specifications, they can't nail your dead engine on the non BMW oil.
Now, if I were to modify the engine, say bore it out, change the cam shafts, etc. And after the modifications the engine didn't work. Now that's the OWNER's fault, not BMW.
Thus, Apple is not at fault here. Users modified the product so that it is no longer OEM. The repair for the iPod should come from the user's pocket.
Glad I got an MD player. Using it for 5 years, take it jogging, take it hiking. Dropped it a few times. Still works fine.
from his story, its more like the person at the "normal" checkout cards for everything, while the person at the liqour conter doesn't card at all.... looks like the person who isn't carding should do it more often.

yea, they sabatoged the mission.
The longer they can delay us from further probing their planet, the longer they can keep their privacy.
Note to space programs.
Martians want to be left alone. maybe the man on the moon is more friendly to us.

As for getting a UPS, just wait till Fry's has a Free after rebate offer.
They did on nov 28th.
But more seriously, it might be worthwhile to have a UPS for the entire comp lab, rather than putting one dedicated per machine.

I'm no bio major, but from what I understanad:
