Your hardware is only as old as the software you're running.
If I can find a less bloated OS to run on older hardware with all the features I need, then I don't feel the need to upgrade.
Most of my machines are 7 years old. I got them all as hand-me-downs from people "needing" newer hardware to run the latest OS. Like me, most of them don't play games and really only need a web browser and an office sweet. I love it when a new OS comes out.... chances are I'm going to get a better computer for free.
If used properly, GOTOs can still leave the code readable and maintainable.
Besides.... We've all been using GOTO's under different names.
In C++, what do you think the 'case' statement or the 'break' statement is?
It's essentially a GOTO. Still readable. Still maintainable.
Bad programmers will leave code unreadable and unmaintainable regardless of whether or not they use GOTOs.
Good programmers can use GOTOs with no problems.
Almost everyone has a cell phone. When I need privacy at work, I just walk out of the building and talk on my cell. Scrambling my voice would be annoying to me and to my coworkers.
Oh, it certainly works if you do it right.
1) Make sure that you cover the entire glass surface inside and out with spit.
2) Rinse lightly. If you rinse out the entire saliva film, you will fog. It's the film that prevents the fogging.
3) Dive immediately. Leaving it more than a minute or 2 will cause fogging for some reason.
BTW, I have 12 years of diving and over 800 dives without a fogged mask:)

I intended the above post as a joke, not as information. Really, now I think the fact that my blatant (and somewhat lame) joke got modded as informative is funnier than the joke itself.

...83% off all statistics quoted are made up on the spot!
$30000 under the table is about $60000 of income that is taxed. So, unless they hope to make $60000 per year doing ligitimate work, then $30000 is quite profitable. Remember that a lot of people don't have great earning potential (like a Wal-Mart clert).

A plan B is definitely required. Imagine being denied admittance due to the cell phone battery being dead.
Sounds like the elevator has a utilitarian philosophy.

Most cities don't have a bug problem. Rural areas on the other hand.....
... and the number of birds who feed on the bugs will be cut dramatically throughout the cities.

The "owners" often have no say in corporations. It's the board of directors and senior management that has the say.

Wow! Mrs Claus is skankier than I had imagined, but for some reason, I just have to buy a T-Mobile Sidekick II.
Before we go blaming the cause on computers, perhaps a causational study is in order.
