I've had three food jobs.. All were the same, some 35 year old assistant manager snorts coke all the time and supplies beer to the underage female coworkers.
The worst was this pizza joint I worked at. The manager was in a wheelchair, so he always tried to play pitty games with people. He would take money from the register and blame it on us. Then when they installed cameras, he would 'mess up' the paperwork and short delivery people almost daily. Most were too ignorant to catch the short-change, but when I approached him about it he just fired me on the spot.. It was for the best, I think.:)
So much that I used some program that changes the way your voice sounds on the fly. Works well in CS, but I have not tried using it on anything that really taxes my machine. You can use it for prank phone calls, too. I just use it to make a minor change to make my voice very neutral sounding.
Here is a link to the publisher. Depending on your location and moral character, there are full versions on most P2P networks. Of course, the full version allows much more tweaking.
The sad part is, half the time this issue is brought up around someone not in the IT industry, they think of it much the same as american auto makers back in the 80's.
What they do not understand, the government bailed out the automakers. This allowed the american economy to hang on to it's monopoly (economic, not auto) for a bit longer. The auto industry also held a ton of economic might for just 3-4 companies. That made it easy for them to put a few law-makers in their pocket.
The saddest arguement I've heard, so far, was that "Americans apparently can't do the job as well as Indians". Oh, I can't wait until that particular redneck calls Dell or EarthLink for support and can't understand a word they are saying.
It's not like these companies are charging less after sending the jobs over there. They charge the same as before, some have even raised rates (EarthLink), so I do not see where this benefits the economy at all. It's just money flowing to countries that would rather see us gone or suffering.
I've done this before. For instance, I knew the place I had just inquired about a job needed someone proficient with SQL. I exceeded all other requirements for the job, so I put down some experience with SQL. For two days before the interview, I plowed through a SQL book and had enough fresh information to breeze through any questions they had.
Sure, it took a little while to get totally up to speed, but this was masked by the fact that I was proficient with everything else.
I get about 500 spams a week. It gets old, very old. Especially when I use a web interface to check mail while on the road.
I'm very enthusiastic about anything new. The other guys (earthlink, etc) have had absolutely no luck in implementing a real spam solution. I suspect that more money was spent on marketing 'spamblocker' than was spent developing it.
Let's be happy one of the big ISPs have the resources and dedication to, at least, try to slow the spam down. Something has to be done.
Just look how many years it took for these other dolts in the industry to even block port 25 traffic to any SMTP server. So very frustrating to think about.
Yeah, just look at what happened with MindSpring. In 1995, before the big-boom, Charles Brewer had great control over his company and grew it amazingly well. Then as the boom hits, the company is showing a lot of promise. It has it's first profits, then investor greed got the best of them.
They bought Netcom, then merged with EarthLink. At this point, investor hype was all that mattered. The things that made MindSpring a great company were now forever gone. Great things being: top notch in-house support, their own network, their own developers, and everything that could run on open-source being run that way (it saves money!).. Now they are EarthLink, technical support is handled by rude people in India, they outsource their network from the bottom dollar bidders, and have put 3000+ people out of work. To offer better service? Nope. Just so a very select few can make a few more dollars.
I, personally, hope this activity destroys corporate america. I am not any sort of activist, I could just do without the excessive greed destroying everything good. Just because some other guy is the market leader, there is no reason to sacrifice your ethics to "win".
Good old Mindspring would still be a profitable business with it's 300,000 organic-growth customers.
Enjoy the churn, Mr. Sky Dayton. You shorted a lot of investors and are a criminal. I guess I should stop there, next thing you know the big, scarey church of Scientology will file a lawsuit against me for picking on their little boy.
Asia is a better acress, anyway. The great thing about her, she looks like 3/4 of the asian women out there. So it's easy to get something close to a porn star girly for a geek.:)
Yeah they do. Women will be much more impressed if you purchase a mechanical watch that increases in value over time. Spend the $1100 now and never buy another watch again.
Also, make sure you wear good shoes. For those who never see your own feet, everyone else notices when you are wearing nikes with slacks.
At the day care provider my parents stuck me in, there were, literally, thousands of lincoln logs. They had tubs of the things and I was the only kid who would touch them. While all the other kids had to share legos, I was build log mansions. It was great. I had one structure about 6 feet high (stood on a chair to place the top parts). The bitch who was in charge of us yelled at me because of my hoarding. I hope she's fat and bald now.
It would have been far cooler if he'd fitted a TFT screen instead of his window.
That's what I expected to see when I began my downward scroll towards the final product.
I don't really think this case mod deserves a/. headline, personally. It doesn't look very good, but that is my opinion.
My system looks almost like a G4 with the aluminum case and G4 keyboard. Perhaps I could take some pictures, talk about how I spent 4 hours making a bezel and get slashdotted..
Speaking of which.. 4 hours to make a custom bezel?! My god man. I think a paraplegic could do it faster. I did a plastic one in less than an hour with a dremel and plastic cement. Looked perfect. I used a dremel to cut an aluminum one for the last game system in about 45 minutes. Maybe he was high? No, I was high when I did both of mine. Hmm
eople keep talking about _____'s lack of multiple-tuner support as if it were a showstopper*
It stops you from multi-tasking off a single device. So it's a double-show stopper, technically.
If you're looking at buying/building a PVR, you presumably already have a VCR, right? And you're going to keep it hooked up for watching your old tapes and rentals, yes?
Not really. I have not owned a VCR since I built my first media-PC in 96. I used an old ATI card and a capture card to record shows. I haved used DVD for movies since 94-95 and would never rent a tape again because of the poor quality. Mind you, I am exceptionally picky. Not to be snooty about it; my eyesight failing slowly, so while the world is still nice and clear (fingers crossed), I want the best images consumer-level technology has to offer. Quality issues are compounded when you view on a 50", or larger, digital display.
OK, so hook up the cable or rabbit ears to it, set the timer, put a tape in, and record that second show your PVR is missing the old fashioned way. Granted, this won't work in all cases (e.g. two programs on non-broadcast digital cable channels), but I've been watching every "conflicting" episode of Ed, Enterprise, The West Wing, and Jake 2.0 all year this way.
Well, I live in 2004, the only analog coming into this house is the telephone line. It gets converted to digital right out at the curb. I don't use any over-the-air, except for my local HD channels.
This also requires some intervention. Using a dual-tuner tivo or UTV system, both recording shows appear in the GUI and lets me pick another show from the list. It's all on one screen and requires no monkey grease to work flawlessly.
I, technically, can record two shows and watch a 3rd as my HD box is a separate component. I left that out of the parent post because it did not relate to the functionality of the single PVR component doing all the work.
I use my Xbox as a media player for my divx and mp3 collections. It's got a 100 gig drive, Xbmp (xbox media player), and ties into the home network with a 400 gig file server dishing out whatever media I've manage to save digitally.
'we will laugh at personal computing as we know it.' No need to wait, I do it every day."
I don't find much hilarity in the way we do personal computing these days. Just look at how far we've come in 20 years.
I might as well get used to this ungrateful Generation-W (as I call it, Generation Whine) attitude towards science and computing, regarding the rate of advancement.
Fact is, if it weren't for the efforts of millions, the majority of/. types would be doing manual labor or handling paper files for a living.
When I started in the professional world, computers were already common, but had not fully penetrated my office. We still had a huge file room and was in there several hours a day. It really sucked compared to having everything on a file server, a 20" LCD display, comfy mac keyboard, P4 3gig, and USB lights strategically placed on my desk and monitor, and Aero HM chair.
Anyway, satisfaction is relative. If you are laughing now, you were laughing in the 90's and will continue to think the same in 2015.
Everyone responding seems to have some strange feeling that you have to be indirect or obscure to say:
"Until your court case is settled, my company will refrain from contributing further resources to this issue."
What is indirect or obscure here? This structure would fit the writing style of his document better. It is still saying "fuck off, losers". The "wasting time" remark just did not fit very well. It sounds immature in an, otherwise, flowing document.
Until the next thread, I will refrain from contributing further resources to this issue.:)
Why do we keep hearing about these PVRs?

Build Your Own PVR
·
· Score: 4, Informative
Hmm. If you just wait until a special, you can get a PVR w/ dual tuners for free by switching your video provider (CAT/SAT).. There's always some special going on by one of the major companies. Yeah, you'll get a 12 month contract, but whoopee-do.
$29/mo x 12mo = $348.00. That's for a year of basic satellite service (~125 channels) with a 40 hour unit for 'free'. As the PVR prices continue to tumble, you'll find that PVR units will become standard-with-service in a couple of years.
Sure, "hacking" is fun, but only when it's improving something and learning in the process. I know Linux/BSD as well as I ever care to, so there's nothing new to learn by typing 'rpm -i Myth' or 'make install' and edit a conf file, or two, after building a new box. I've seen too many people refer to this as hacking, thus my mention of it. Don't call it that unless you are writing your own code or have either utilized a soldering gun or dremmel in your project.
Don't get me wrong, I am not critizing people's efforts. I think it's great that folks are using this to learn something new. But, it hardly replaces a set-top PVR or saves any money.
Here's the reasons, as I see them:
Multiple tuners - lets you record one show while watching another, record two shows while watching another previously recorded one. This issue has only ever been responded to with "You watch too much TV" cracks, but I watch about 4 hours a week and have two series with over-lapping schedules. If I had one tuner, I would miss one of them.
Realtime encoding/decoding - This goes with the multiple tuners issue. My unit can encode two shows at once while playing a third one back. This is all done without any slowdowns on a dinky CPU.
Remotes - A task specific remote. VCR style controls, never have to touch a keyboard. No dead buttons. No extra buttons.
Wife/child friendly - If it crashes, the most you ever do is pull the card and power cycle. Boots in 15 seconds and picks up where it left off (recording or playing back), no loss in material except for the off-time. I don't want them having to worry about ever having to see a console or have any bugs surface that can't be fixed by a power cycle or press of a button on the remote.
No fuss in the event of a failure - If a lease or in warranty: Call your SAT/CAT provider and they will Fed Ex you a whole new unit in the even of a failure. If it's old and you own it, then simply take advantage of the market and switch providers for 12 months, get a free new one.
I know some folks are very dependant or faithful to one provider. Don't be. They all just want your money, just because one has a cooler name and you like blue icons better, that doesn't mean you need to not play the market. There's plenty of money to be saved and the tactic of branding is just that, a marketing tactic. Shop around, get cool stuff for nothing, enjoy!
You have to take into consideration the following text:
He has developed heatpipe-driven gloves which pump therms from your toasty upper arm down to those aforementioned frosty digits. 'Each glove contains five small heat pipes, one for each finger, that are about 14 inches long and 1 mm x 2 mm in the cross section. Each pipe consists of three sections: an evaporating section, which is attached to the upper arm area; an adiabatic section, which is between the finger area and the arm area; and the condensing section, which is attached to the finger area.' Coming soon to a half-pipe near you..."
This text sets presedence that I will be seeing something that someone has already built. The prototype photo you are refering to is not a glove, nor does it look remotely functional. If I had invented such a device, I would have big, pretty pictures for advertising to investors.
From his website as a "On-Going Research Project": Flexible Miniature Heat Pipes (FMHP): The ultra-thin, flexible heat pipe is developed for applications where mobility and pliability are required. Such a heat pipe is light-weight and has the ability to flex and change shape as an application requires. Flexible heat pipes show great potential for distributing heat in biomechanical applications.
How'd he make the gloves when they have not found a reliably method for building a flexible heatpipe? Like I said, this doesn't look very far along. As far as we know, the stuff in the photo could snap the third time it's bent more than 30 degrees.
I'm always the devil's advocate when it comes to neat-new stuff that isn't on store shelves yet.
The phrase "waste my time" just does not fit the rest of the document. In previous paragraphs, his words are flowing and elegant. Then you read that last bit and it looks like a sloppy forum post.
What did this do for my image of the writer? He went from sounding like a professional businessman to someone who can't maintain a steady writing style through a single page document.
It simply took away from the letter, regardless of whether it's civil.
That is cool sounding, and all, but I don't think it's the way to go.
Just like we have manners at the dinner table, we should have manners when in a business enviroment. Following such standards will help one out immensely come review time.
He has developed heatpipe-driven gloves which pump therms from your toasty upper arm down to those aforementioned frosty digits.
If he has 'developed' these gloves, I would like to see a picture of them. It looks like these are just as 'developed' as those night-vision contacts over at Popular Science.

I've had three food jobs.. All were the same, some 35 year old assistant manager snorts coke all the time and supplies beer to the underage female coworkers.

It would be a man's moral right to kill a man he finds in bed with his wife. Still, that offers no salvation from the legal system.
Fear of punishment should keep them in line. That's separate from morality.

Oh just let him hang on to the illusions drawn by the liberal media.. [sarcasm]
I say if the media is so liberal, why doesn't it attack everything Bush does? Hell, I never even see anyone questioning anything.
I just want to know the status of a few things:
Where is my 9/11 report?
Where are the WMD?
What's the status of the anthrax investigation?
What's the status of the leak investigation?
I'm not disagreeing, just felt like bringing these up. This shit should be on the news, in the 45 minute loops, until the whole story is heard.
The current administration seems to have everyone so scared of terrorists, they've become distracted.
Deal with it. Boycott or abstain, but overpricing doesn't give you any legal or moral right to steal.
Moral rights are determined by self.
