If you would please provide a mail link with form letter and email addresses for major companies I would gladly send it. The effort of contacting all the people who can make a difference is too much for most of us. But of somebody would take a week off and do the work I believe an army of open source aligned slackers are ready to send the form mail with their name on it. The fewer steps and less thought required the better. Perhaps a retired spammer could help us out here.
but they still keep calling to recruit and now they have more information because of my opt out form. I should feel bad about how I treat the recruiters and bad mouth the government, but I don't. If they were a company they'd have to prosecute themselves.
we should be seening bounties on fraudulent parties which can be collected by those that successfully take them out be what ever means. This way government regulations should get in the way and hacking skills can be used for profit, how nice would that be.
I'd still really like to see somebody provide the kind of laptops you expect from hp, toshiba, and others with NO OS. That should mean less work for them and a lower price for us and since I already scrap the existing OS right after getting a laptop it wouldn't be any more work for me.
It's not a practical technology. If the father purchases a dvd player for the family you can't reasonably expect that he'll be in the house every time somebody want's to play the dvd. I'm sure it's fun to work on such devices but it won't replace the existing systems in any major way.
Why not develope space technologies to help in safely travling through and living in space instead of ones to kill each other out there. We're already killing ourselves too much here so why must we be able to do so elsewhere before we'll even work on being able to go elsewhere?
Seriously. How many 'great' ideas come out of some over paid monkey's ass each day. It's nice to know about new ideas but what's really nice is to hear about the ones that last a few months and aren't just a marketing ploy.
Quite right you are. I tend to over simplify and go with such terms as theft and stealing because it gets across the correct attitude. Copyright infringment and plagearism are both terribly wrong but they don't carry the same conotations and seem in fact to be considered 'cool' by many youth who still consider theft to be wrong. Nonetheless, your distinction is correct and must be observed when addressing the legal side of things. My bad.
I'm defining stealing as taking what doesn't legally belong to you. This applies to people who make unlawful copies of, or download illegally, music which they do not have the rights to. I'm all for free or donation supported music though I mostly pay for my music online. What I don't like is those people who justify downloading copies of music which don't belong to them by saying that they deserve it for being so stupid as to buy an expesive mp3 player.
after all, we don't really want to encourage theft. I'm all for burning riaa but kids really should be stealing music. I'm discusted when my classmates (the ones driving a brand new lexus or suv) say things like 'I paid for the ipod, i deserve the music for free' and use that as justification for stealing thousands of songs.
Thank you. Everybody thinks it. Where there's a will (read: money) there's a way. Adult Entertainment has the funds and the desire to see this. Bringing the content to cell phones may be a fun idea but it's higher quality that'll really get the market.
I've accessed sensitive information on school computers and servers multiple times often without using more than a student user account and explorer. High school computers have got to be some of the shittiest in regards to security. And if default windows access exposes information imagine what I see when using a simple linux box ('hidden' shares are all shown by default and such fun things). The kids should be showing people how easy it is to see information so that it isn't stored like that.
Yes, the city is all too distracting at times but I've found recently that a stroll through the park with my girlfriend can remove the stress and distractions of the city. My friends and I make it a point to know where to go to get away from the busy streets and drive through coffee stops. The parks, botanic gardens, even just a friendly neighborhood, they all provide an escape even if it's just for 30 minutes during lunch. I don't know Pittsburgh at all but you might try finding a park somewhere nearby, baby ducks where hatching a month ago and while they're grown up a bit they're still quite cute. Enjoy, because Life Is Good
3-hours drive from the nearest highschool in hawaii out of town. I know this because I'll be making the commute to take SAT IIs during one of the days that I'm there. I believe the nearest theater (showing it or not) is in the same place.
Well, that's because I work for myself. But I still wouldn't go the first days, lines too long and theater is too crowded. I'll be working like normal until a good weekend a few weeks after release and then...I'll be out of town and busy with SATs so maybe I'll just rent it, maybe.
I'm sorry. In the past dell has provided non-standard hardware (different connectors, wrong size, etc.). As a result I stopped using them. I admit my knowledge of their practices is a bit outdated. Non-the-less, a laptop still requires hardware that you won't find at the local computer store (harddrives excepted) and I do know that dell still charges outrageous amounts to order upgrade through them.
Now I can spend twice as much for something that I can't reconfigure/upgrade (hardware wise) which doesn't follow standards (I love dell). Move over lugging around a desktop because now I can lug around a 'laptop' that weighs just about as much.
that's not very fair. what with the taking advantage of slashdot effect to make the poor guy stick to his words, we'll all download it and never even look at it, hell I downloaded to/tmp
And today is the last day for many of the regionals for FIRST Robotics, a highschool level competition sponsored by NASA. Too bad I couldn't compete in both at the same time.

researchers have located a crucial difference between men and women. It has to do with the size of one particular area of the brain...

just combine it with the hi-def web cast and we'll have adult entertainment all over it's ass, literally

let's let washington fix the bugs and then implement it else where. glad I don't live there.

Aren't I great with hidden messages and all. No, you're right, stupid typo.

Actually, I've never been to Hawaii. I'm in Denver and while I support lgbt watching baby ducks with my girlfriend hardly seems homosexual.

hackerman or heckerman?
I wish my last name was legally hacker. I'd change my first and middle to black and hat respectively.
And today is the last day for many of the regionals for FIRST Robotics, a highschool level competition sponsored by NASA. Too bad I couldn't compete in both at the same time.
