I don't pirate online, but that's not to say my previous collection is from umm...dubious origins. In any event, I do stream music rather than listen to FM radio because it opens me up to whole genres of music I would otherwise not be exposed to short of making a random purchase of music. Which BTW was the norm back in the mid 90s's and prior. Back then if you wanted to hear music other than what was on radio rotation, you got exposed to music from other peoples collection (which was often limited), or close your eyes and pull an LP/CD/Cassette and random and hoped for the best. However today, I'm finding all sorts of obscure bands that range from absolute shit to pure genius-why-isn't-this-top-40 level of stuff. Eventually, I'll find something I like and will do one of two things. 1; find a used CD and purchase online or, 2; purchase music from iTunes. Come full circle now, I'm purchasing more music thanks to legitimate internet streaming than I've ever did before. As for the RIAA, they can go fuck themselves!!! They're not the sole arbiter of what music should and shouldn't be popular. I'm not fucking cattle!
Regarding corporate executives; a good ratio of them are already psychopathic. If fact, it was the lack of feelings and empathy that didn't hold them back. Essentially, shit rises to the surface above everything else.
But you don't understand. It keeps DC employed and filthy rich. So much so they have a baby boom. Everyone else got fucked. America is one giant low-information-voter. Honestly, I hope these voters get fucked in the ass for it. Maybe then they will wake the fuck up!
Like I've said a thousand times to people. "Race is not the same thing as culture. Do not conflate the two". When people drop the Race Card, they're often espousing a great deal of ignorance themselves. Now I don't deny that there are many racists out there, but the vast majority of people are culturists when you get right down to it. Ironically, most of then don't realize the distinction until you explain it properly.
When that happens, I'm pretty sure that states will either just ignore the Federal Government, or officially leave the union by force. This can go peacefully, or it can turn into a multi-faction civil war. That means the military would fracture too. I would guess nuclear weapons would be locked up and rendered useless without codes, but I'm not knowledgeable in the policies and procedures of their readiness. I seriously doubt a nuclear civil war would breakout. But given we are 17 trillion in debt and Obamacare is about to push people over the edge and default on their homes (can't pay mortgage), this nation is at the cusp of financial implosion!. It's truly frightening to think about.
I or anyone else for that matter can't tell you how it will all play out. But one thing is for sure. What can't go on forever, won't go on forever. Change is coming, and it's a safe bet that it's not all hopes and dreams.
I notice you DIDN'T mention the Valery Plame affair which in my opinion was FAR worse than anything that has happened in the Obama Whitehouse and led to criminal prosecution of a White House aid.
"Divide and conquer" is the phrase you're looking for. Obama is an Saul Alinsky-ite. None of this is news to those that are educated. But the educated didn't vote for the guy now did they!?
Oh please. The press sucks the cock of the DNC! Obama walks on water, and they will continue to report it as such. This is what major network journalism has come too. Political propaganda machines under the wing and coercion of elected officials. The masters have full control of their slaves. And the slaves LOVE IT!
Once in awhile I'll listen to Rush Limbaugh on the radio during lunch hour. It's a talk show, why not. Anyways, he said something that stuck with me. Basically, the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) wasn't just drafted in one week. It was drafted years in advanced and stuffed in a drawer just waiting for the opportunity. And that go me thinking. What other fucking legislative bombs are lurking in the deep dark corners of an office someplace? This piece of shit of a bill needs to die; in fire!!! But it's not going to be the last. No, this sets an encouragement to draft and pass bills in a similar manner. You must pass it first, then play cleanup later. Only cleanup will never fucking happen.
Racial profiling is a step forward, but I wouldn't trust that metric. What should be profiled is an Islamic background. Last I checked, non-Muslims weren't an airline threat.
We're a reseller of Office365. Most of our clients still keep their data locally. In fact, setting up cloud storage with Skydrive is really a back door to a SharePoint site that must be setup first for collaborative central cloud storage. Currently, it's a huge PITA to setup and assign granular permissions.
Where Office365 does shine is hosted Exchange and local installs of Office 2013 via 'E' plans. Our clients love it to be quite honest.
Well, no actually. You need the same amount of storage, but not spindles; which isn't the same thing. When you run VMs from a server, you benefit from data consolidation vs. each machine running on bare metal.
With the advent of BYOD, throw-away consumer electronics, and thin client machines booting from VM client images; the days of consumer drives needed in office desktops will become more and more sparse. I can only imagine the consumer PC market will follow a similar downward trend (sans VM and thin clients). Save for those specialty gaming rigs and workstation class machines used in drafting, manufacturing, and GIS (oil and gas industry).
OCZ aside; when we procure Dell PowerEdge servers for the SMB market, we don't actively select the brand of drive. What we do select is capacity and performance and weigh that against cost.
Now you may be asking is "why"? Simple. 1: We trust Dell's selection in their PowerEdge lineup. 2: We never run a server without an active warranty. Drive fails in an array; we get it replaced the same or following day. No problemo.
Also it can save power. If the GPU is creating frames lower than 60hz then that's less power it needs to spend to do it.
There's no "can" about it. It's a proven fact that it does saves power!!! I know because I enable VSync at the global level in the nVidia Control Panel. Regardless of what game I play, the card isn't calculating into infinity and drawing over 100 watts of power (not including the CPU power savings). It's also more quite because the fan isn't working hard to throw off the extra heat that would otherwise be generated.
Mid-range cards are nasty fast and efficient. With a standard LCD monitor (which over 99% of the population uses), you don't need anymore than 60 FPS because you're not ever going to see it. It's just a waste of GPU/CPU cycles that only the benchmark queens care about.
We don't have a tax problem in-so-much as a spending and entitlement problem.
Do you want to win in American politics big time? Level with the public. Just stand up and say "vote for me and I'll give you FREE shit". It would be a landslide victory. Take America off life support and let it die already. We're not just financially bankrupt, but morally and ethically too.
Business trips are often booked in the last minute. Especially if you work in IT and have to make an emergency visit that justifies the trip. Anyways yes, flying is a shitty experience. If it's not the screaming kid kicking the seat behind you, it's the fatty taking up all the leg and elbow room.
I actually had the middle seat between a couple's windows and isle seat. They chose those seats because they were both obese. When I went over to sit, both of their rolls of fat rendered the middle seat absolutely useless. Maybe enough room to fit a bag in. I was lucky that there was another seat that I could relocate too. But imagine a full flight where they had to shuffle people around or kicks someone off the flight.
They should have paid for that third seat so no one else could be assigned to it.
Just one question: What happens to the 16 TRILLION in debt that the remaining states hold once the southern states leave the union? Do you think China or anyone else is going to ask those states to pay up? LOL, ya right. Nope, they're no longer part of the union, remember. Whoever holds the bag is going to be in for a nasty surprise!

Benghazi! Nuff said.
I'm disgusted by all forms of corruption. I don't dispute what you said, but as a voter, what are you doing about it?!
Democracy is a horrible system. All other forms of governance are far worse!
