I would fight my tickets, but each time I've tried its only made it cost more. One time I even got my license suspended. My ultimate solution was to finally do the speed limit. I do 30 in a 30 and 55 in a 55. I'm sure the poor people who get behind me hate me. But the cost of my insurance (267.00 a month) and the cost of the tickets and defensive driving classes were killing me.
Hmm lets see, most cops in my area make 11.00 an hour. So it costs them 88.00 a day for the cop, who sits on the toll road outside my home and pulls people over non stop. Lets say he can do 1 ticket every 10 minutes, thats 6 tickets an hour or 3000.00. Now I belive the last ticket I got was not 50.00 but over 100.00 for reckless driving. But we wont factor that. Most people like me simply mail in a payment. So they get a check. I would say thats a good profit. 88.00 + cost of a pen and paper for 3000.00. Oh yea, and add in a minimum wage job of entering the tickets.
The thing that plays before movies says no cell phones, laser pointers, talking, or crying babies. It says nothing about recording the show. Maybe thats the problem.
Well, you have UT2003, UT2004, Neverwinter Nights, and rumor has it Doom 3 will be for linux and mac. Sounds like linux gaming is growing. Even if it is slowly.
Does this mean I could host a webserver and sell webspace and email out to people, then read all their email and take all their customer's information and well as code/databases they may create because its in my ram?
Its because of people like me. When I worked support for a large ISP, most people just needed a good reboot. We would clear their cache to make them think we did something, then tell them to reboot:-)
I write all my pages the same way. I use css to control all aspects of the design and layout.I use tables for the very rare cases I can't get the css to work just as I need it (very very rare, but I've had that happen once or twice) And then I use javascript to detect the browser and send a tweaked css for IE. I've found that if I make it look good in firefox, it looks great in IE 97% of the time. That other 3 percent, I just make a second tweaked css and then detect the browser and send the correct css file. Opera never gives me any trouble and I dont get any complaints from safari users either.
Ok, try this, what if everyone setup their machines to spam?
I mean spam every address you can find send thousand of duplicate emails a day, bring the entire internet down. We made the thing, lets take it back down. Then leave the unwashed masses out of it. And if we can't take every router in the world down by sending massive amounts of spam, maybe we can make the signal to noise ratio so high that the spammers wont make any money.
Imagine a day when everyone gets 100,000 plus emails per inbox. Each one for a different product. It would be impossible for them to read each ad, so the real spam would get bypassed and the spammers wouldn't make any money.
Now before anyone takes this serious, I know this wouldn't work, even if we could get thousands of people to send fake spam, they would be the ones the lawmakers would go after while the real spammers. And besides, its most likley morally wrong.
But I say, If you can't beat em, join em. If we were all spammers, nobody would care about spam.
I use the refer that says I'm IE if I have too. Then I send a contact email to the site letting them know I spoofed my user-agent to access their site with firefox, and it works fine. I also link to firefox and explain why I use it and why they should support it. I also point out that any webdesigner worth his shit would make a page that can be viewed by any browser.
Maybe this will help me get my friends to switch to jabber. I've gotten almost everyone I know down to msn and yahoo and jabber. If I can get yahoo to move to jabber, that just leaves msn:-)
I guess they wont mind if I put some buggy software on their systems then?
But seriously, why can't they be sued for cybercrime? If installing software without permission is perfectly legal, I have some keylogging software I would like to put on my banks PC's. I wouldn't argue privacy, I would argue the fact that they are putting software on your computer without your knowledge, that may cause problems in your system critical applications such as porn.
Its not the router, even if I plug my cable modem directly into my computer via ethernet or usb, I get random disconnections. It doesn't matter what the upload/download ration is. I can upload all day long to ftp at high speeds and download from ftp all day at high speeds, just bittorrent and also sometimes ssh kills my modem requiring a reboot.
I read last night this is a bug in the cable modem and linksys has a firmware patch out for it. But, linksys support said you can't flash your own firmware and the cable company has to do it for you. I called comcast support, but it was like trying to talk to a brick wall. No one knew what I was talking about. A few further googles proved what the other articles I have read told me. Comcast needs to update the firmware on linksys cable modems to reslove the issue. I guess we can't update our own firmeware because of the way docsis 1.1 works. In any case, I think the solution is to just buy a new modem, which is what I plan to do tonight. I think i'm going to go with a surfboard. Any suggestions on a good modem?
My problem is I just can't get large files to download over bittorrent because of my linksys cable modem. For some reason when I use bittorrent for more then a few hours it crashes the cablemodem and I loose all internet access till I reboot the modem. This only happens with bittorrent.
So far I havn't needed to download anything that large yet that I can't get via ftp, but if I did, I guess I'd have to debug this problem.
Art is subjective my friend. Just because you dont see remixes as art does not mean others dont. If someone takes your song and 3 others and remixes it to a new dance tune, its still a new work of art. That said he still owes you for use of your work, but you should not be able to tell him he can't use it.
As for your software example, if a applicant came into my office with my source code modified to do something else, my first question would be to find out how he got it, then to revise my security practices! Unlike a song, source code is a copywrighted work that you normally dont release to the public unless you are giving it away. Thus this does not make a good argument. If the guy had access to the code legally and if it was a good hack, I would definatly call that high marks.
In any case, you seem very close minded for an artist. Most artists I know encourage creativity, and understand that just because they dont like something doesn't mean it sucks. Do you tell children they are not allowed to sing your songs because they might be out of tune? You have a right to make money from your work, and as long as you are getting paid, I dont feel you have a right to say what the public does with your work.
But thats just me. Everyone has their own opinon:-)
I still dont understand why spammers try to break spam filters. They are in place because the user wants to get rid of spam. I would say it is safe to say that means users who setup spam filtering wont be buying anything from said spam.
A few of my companys oldest legacy clients still have SCO servers. Most of them have moved to AiX solutions though. I'm not sure if my company plans on offically supporting linux or not at this time. Fortuantly, I dont have to deal with either. I focus on the client software which runs on *gulp* windows. Although that doesn't prevent me from running linux at home even when I have to do work:-)

That includes all stealing? From a penny to a movie to a stickypad off a co-workers desk?

I'm so soroy, IlL mkae sure to uese spelchek next time.
Lighten the fuck up.
Firefox: The act of lighting a small animal on fire and letting it go loose to discover new areas in the world you would of never traveled too before.
Thank sounds plain enough to me.

I only really use notepad to edit source files, so syntax highlighting and regular expressions are a must.

Isn't the deposit the goverments money? How can the stores tell you how they are giving you back money that isn't even theirs?
no, the compiled win32 zip works just fine.

There's your problem. Dont use the installer app, just use the compiled zips. Delete old folder, replace with new folder.

Does this mean they actually have developers? Or did they just up the product version number?
