Learn good communication skills so others will think you are competent. Even if you aren't.
And, remember, writing is communication. In fact, it's a form of communication that lingers on long after you've forgotten about it, making you look smart or stupid, as the case may be, the whole time.
My point here, of course, is that the submitter's summary is chock-full of screwups.

...I'd just like to point out that every employer who ever failed to hire me owes me back wages. $500/hr, backdated to my 18th birthday, ought to cover it.
tiny headmounted displays I fit in the corner of my glasses
Just wait till you get the tiny headmounted video camera in the corner of your glasses. That's when the MPAA comes in and stifles the technology, as per their track record of late.
Lite-On is supported by K-Probe, yes...but Nero CD/DVD-Speed supports lots of burners. What you're looking for is burn quality. This means a drive/medium combination that works well. Check CD Freaks for loads of test postings.
To give you one data point -- my own experience -- I go with NEC burners and Taiyo Yuden DVD+R media (which I get without problem from Rima). I get good results, whether scanned by the burning drive or a Lite-On I got before I knew better (which only gives mediocre burning results).
Probably going to get modded offtopic for this, but I gotta say it...
you can tell I'm from the vinyl age, still calling them "albums"
I don't get why people think "album" means "vinyl". Here, let's look in the dictionary:
A set of musical recordings stored together in jackets under one binding
That seems appropriate to modern CDs, yes? Particularly multi-CD packages.
A recording of different musical pieces
Ahh, there it is. Generically, any recording of more than one piece of music can be legitimately called "an album". (Or "anal bum", if you're Sean Connery.) It refers to the contents, not the medium.
So, please, people, stop doing this "oh I'm so old I still say 'album'" stuff.
As an American who's disgusted with the current Copyright Cabal running roughshod all over everyone and everything, I'm glad there's somewhere in the world where this crap inspires the mainstream rage it should. GO GET 'EM.
What's it like in Sweden? What's a nice time of year to visit? Are there programmer jobs available? Do you still have that bikini team?
...where morale drops through the floor and people start looking for new jobs.
Nobody likes living under a fascist big-brother network policy. But, hey, you put those lousy "freeloaders" in their place, huh? That's all that matters, after all...
I want to buy a RAID Array, but I went to the ATM Machine for money, but I forgot my PIN Number. Luckily, I keep a copy in my phone, but found that the LCD Display was broken! I went back to my computer, where I had yet another copy, but found that both the NIC Card and the SCSI Interface had gone bad!
Actually, I was going to go with "hydrogen hydroxide", which is my preferred wacky term for this. Unfortunately, the wacky hoax is written with "dihydrogen monoxide", so there you go. I imagine they chose that one because people will hear "monoxide" and think "carbon monoxide", which they know to be bad for you.
I've in fact researched this in great detail, and I could give you a list of food that have adverse affect on health
Ohh, adverse effect. Like contributing to complications of certain pathological conditions or something. I could have sworn you said "toxic". As in poisonous. Silly me!
...between ISPs and their users, the users said they would jump ship the moment they thought their ISPs were helping to spy/keep tabs on them. The users also read a statement into the record proposing that the Justice Department, quote, "go fuck themselves", and, further, that the DOJ heads would, quote, "hit the bricks as soon as we have fired their elected masters".
Take classes outside of CS(which is something that could not hurt anyway) and use them how you see fit.
I believe this idea is called "general education" or GE. It's that thing all the short-sighted college students decry as "having nothing to do with my major".

...will you find an explanation about the epistemologial separation between faith and reason using an MMORPG as an illustrative metaphor.
...they do put out some good albums.
...but since when is Apple stuff cheap?
And here I thought it was all hand-carved by magic elves in their own modern Eurostyle condos...
..that you actually had to explain that.
Now, grandparent poster: turn in your nerd card.
Being a VB dork, I should probably name mine "Me".
"Notify me but don't automatically download or install them". (In Control Panel -> System -> Automatic Updates.)
Then you can pick and choose which updates you want, and when you decline one, it pops up a message in which you can check "Never ask me again".
Too late for those who trusted Microsoft, though...now you have to do a lot of registry tweaks and stuff.
Luddites, indeed.

Does this mean I can finally use their OS as a telestrator?

That's my problem: not enough redundancy!

Some sites do print the "printer-friendly" page. Some even close the window afterwards. Bastards.
