it's not over priced at all. that $5 keyboard is wired up as a sheet of plastic with conductive paint running circuits and contacts and a rubber sheet with conductive rubber pads to complete the contacts when pressed, plus a cheap plastic key and a frame.
a unicomp model M has over 100 individual spring switches and every key is actually a separate key and removable key cap. the board inside is an actual circuit board and the chassis design keeps spilled liquid off the board and allows it to run out the bottom through channels.
so it's more like complaining that a cup of gourmet coffee is $8 when you could scoop parasite infested water from a drainage ditch for free.
i imagine a spring keyboard would be harder to sniff, the main sound in a rubber sheet keyboard is the key striking the bottom plate, which results in a different strike position for each key giving a different sound. with a spring keyboard the primary sound is the spring assembly in each key, so the difference in sound should be less.
the difference is that strip searching is actually implemented in policies affecting people. people complaining about "PC" are just annoyed that they can't go tossing around "faggot" and "nigger" like it was the 50's
my school actually had a fairly reasonable definition. guns, blades, clubs, or any object that can be used as a weapon if it is used as one.
rather than trying to split hairs on what is and isn't a weapon they listed a few obvious ones and made it clear if you beat the crap outta someone with something else it would be considered a weapon no matter how clever you were in "proving" it wasn't a weapon.
i guess i will be grabbing a copy of the old windows client then, i like the skype version on my eee PC better than the one i downloaded for my windows box.
the solution is to sue monactive for slander and tortious interference. They stated that your auction was counterfeit, which is a false claim against you that cost you money, and they caused ebay to wrongfully remove your listing.
if gopher had won we would have ended up extending it to be able to embed references to ftp or tftp hosted files, and tftp would have been an important part of the internet instead of a rarely used protocol.
the only difference users would see would be that the text of a page would load first and URLS would all start with gopher://
Then Mr. Lesher tracked down comments Officer Ettienne had made on the Internet about video clips of arrests. An officer should not have punched a handcuffed man, Officer Ettienne wrote. "If he wanted to tune him up some, he should have delayed cuffing him."
He added: "If you were going to hit a cuffed suspect, at least get your money's worth 'cause now he's going to get disciplined for" a relatively light punch.
there were posts deleted BEFORE 4chan grabbed this and ran with it. The official explanation also doesn't match with patch log records and file system date stamps. This is what you get when you believe what you are told to believe.

unless of course the bot DOES track topics.

"zero tolerance policy" is not a defence to a child molestation charge, nor will it defend against high velocity lead

umm. because people are frelling stupid that's why.

skype works on linux, and does conferencing.

actually the "shouting fire" ruling was the SCOTUS allowing suppression of anti-war and anti-draft activists during World War I
that it is regularly brought up in apositive sense shows how clueless the average American is about our own history.
fucking hell if i had velociraptors in my case i would always be looking for escape routes from my room.
turning about to be canceled credit cards into actual non-canceled money is the trick.

200:1 when it's not your 200 is plenty profitable
no they still use the pre numbered cards. now they have a foil covered pin on the back but who would notice if it was missing.
it's not the shade of green, it's the yellow ring pattern
let me know when it runs well on x86
unless of course they attacked the production and distribution systems for utilities.
pattern the length as such that the first byte indicates length unless it is max int, in which case the next byte is also used, recursively.
if the string happens to be an even max int size follow with a 0.
they should release an open server even if it lacks the content and patch the client to allow the user to specify a server.
bullshit. list one.
