You could throw a rock from any one of the drugstores and hit any of the other ones. I am sure there is some reason for this, but I have yet to be told what it is.
Where does everyone go for help if they can't find a webpage discussing the problem they're having? Is there a very popular site, similar to Slashdot for helping people, particularly in a forum-like setting where people can post problems? Obviously, I know there are newsgroups and websites all over the place for this kind of thing, but is there one that's extremely popular? If not, I think Slashdot should start one...
I was thinking that same thing yesterday. A slashdot for technical questions. Maybe divided up into some logical categories.. maybe not. But if you had the amount of people posting as you do here, you could probably get any question answered in an hour. That would be useful for so many people.
Yeah, and Golden Eye was a movie, not a video game. But if you were talking about "playing golden eye on the nintendo 64", a person who responded "Golden Eye is a movie, not a game" would look like a bigger jackass than the first guy.
But yeah, I've played the original Duke Nukem.. I never liked it.
Duke3d_w32 is a port of Duke3d to the Win32 platform.
Hehe, that's pretty cool actually. Duke Nukem was a pretty fun game. I think my all time favorite DOS FPS though was probably Rise Of The Triad. That game was great.
There's no reason you can't have a free market economy based on moral principles and fairness.
Of course there is. Moral priciples and "fairness" for one are extremely vague terms. My opinion of fair might be to lie and cheat and steal from others.. so long as they can afford to barely exist, while I might just desire to collect diamonds just for the fuck of it.
And actually you can move right on in to California now, since the retarded state gov is basically trying abolish all immigration law. Come on over!
Yeah, good point. Anyone can come work in our country.. hey, we'll even send you some of our jobs! But those same countries often will not welcome Americans at all themselves.
Although I don't think I have needed any... been running Windows Server 2003 for about 2 years now and have never been without problems for a single day.
On the other hand, the success of the PS2 can probably be traced to GT3, GTA, Square, Metal Gear Solid 2, Onimusha, and a host of must-have games that were released before the Xbox hit its stride.
Personally, I have never liked Sony as a company, their practices, or their gaming consoles. I really don't understand why Microsoft doesn't just buy Rockstar and Square, and put an end to this once & for all.
Also, there is a difference between creating a proprietary format and wanting to be the sole manufacturer/distributor of that format. Plenty of formats are closed/patented, but still in wide wide use and made by many different people.
Oh, I basically agree with what you're saying.. I just honestly didn't understand how in this day and age someone can just float around the world with any less hassle than what they would find here in America. It's my understanding that almost every industrialized country in the world gets about equally screwed come tax time, they are all about as poorly represented by their elected/chosen representatives, and the only ones who do seem happy, I think do it just to spite Americans.:)
um, if your bruted password gens the same hash, why wouldn't the original (and unknown) password unlock it as well?
If the passwords were of sufficient length, and encrypted with 128 bit encryption as is an option in newer versions of Word, then this is a moot point.
This new exploit would be the only thing that would be practically feasable in taking advantage of the scenario created for instance by Dell sending out unmodifiable quotes. In that instance, this exploit becomes very, very bad.
The only way to actually know that someone is actually receiving your e-mail at a particular location is to include a web bug that reports their IP address back to you, by opening a socket connection directly to something on a server you own (e.g. an image). So either include an image in the e-mail which is requested from your server, or include a trojan that "phones home" when they run it.
Wrong. If you were talking about you or me.. that would be true. But if you were talking about an organization that had the means to find any email on any provider, then all you would need is to include a unique identifier in the email so that you would be able to locate among the billions of uninteresting ones.
I used to monitor commercial pager traffic. So that on my PC I would see every page, from every person on a given provider. If I wanted to find the "capcode" (basically a pagers ESN) of a user on the system, I would only have to send them a page with a unique number and grep it. From that point on I could single that user out for monitoring. So, this could be the same thing, only with email. Word.

Americans are drug addicts?
If they are on to something, this could be huge. Imagine that you're in charge of running a major international relief organization
Imagine that I'm in charge of a large earthquake insurance company.
Seriously though, this does pose many any questions.

Duke Nukem wasn't an FPS, it was a side scroller.

and if you have other apps with problems, please post about them below.
I can't get the DOS version of Duke Nukem to run in Windows XP. Is this at all somehow related? Is there a fix??

It's precisely the selfish profit-driven nature of our economy that allows this to happen.
I think you mean every economy.

Proprietary formats ensure lock in.
Well, if and only if they catch on.
Also, there is a difference between creating a proprietary format and wanting to be the sole manufacturer/distributor of that format. Plenty of formats are closed/patented, but still in wide wide use and made by many different people.
I wonder how many people are turned off of personal digital audio players by the compromised sound quality of lossy codecs?
Probably somewhere between 1-100 people I would imagine.
robot sharks.... with laser beams.
Better make sure they are frikkin' laser beams!
Why not just use a real dog?
It's much more efficient, easier to fuel, infinitely more intelligent, far less expensive
And they taste good too!
Who is deploying giant robot ants? If no one is deployiong such a weapon, why are we creating something to eat them?
This is another one of our preemptive measures. I mean, it's a safe bet that the Chinese are building robotic ants anyway.
Its called a mule.
Mules are inexpensive and reliable though. The point isn't to save money!
Work on robot soldiers, and save yourself all of the hassle of killing people at all. That would be a lot more fun to watch on CNN anyway.
Unless you know of a law that forces Adobe to do this, this is simply Adobe being a responsible company. Don't like it? Buy something else.
Does anyone really buy photoshop anyway?

At some point I may have to vacate and become a citizen of the world.
What exactly would that mean?
There was a post about this on whatreallyhappened.com.. and it linked to a large article about it here.

Calling these different but useful things "flavors of the month" does a diservice to the value they both bring to the table when used appropriately.
You're a manager, aren't you? I don't think I've met a programmer who's ever mentioned anything about bring "value to the table". Hehe.
