If you live in a society that lives by the credo of "Stay in line, this is your number" and where the most common expression is "May I see your Papers Please?" you accept the paranoia of those in charge as an immutable natural law and go on from there. So how to live with it? Protest or work against it? -easy way to get a larger file, that. No, the best way is to always smile, say "Yes Sir" and do exactly as you please while APEARING to be a common little proliterait. I once knew a janitor who told me that every time he had a kid born he applied for and recieved at least 20 social security cards. The pencil pushers are used to the paperwork and just roboticlly fill in the correct blanks. This way, he had at laset 5 his kid could use, 2 or three he could use, and he could sell the rest. I always thought this fellow a smart man; trading paranoia as a commodity. Spys call it a "legend"; Building up a absolutley solid ID that is totally different from you. I would suggest anyone itnerested in freedom investigate open literature on how this is accomplished. f you are unwilling to stray that far from the matrix, try this: Always lie, always typo, always answer with a smile and a mis-spelled name. such mistakes are expected, forgiven and never result in problems for you but if ENOUGH do it, the monkey wrench colides with the machinery in such a way as to render the whole thing disfunctional,. Do your part to show the insult to individualism and freedom it truely is.
NASA has shown several times they can afford to send money controlling Senators and other congress critters into space. Seems a perfect example of Newtonian physics; toss hot air bodies at asteroids until they slow down to a crawl like all governemnt service.
You are bringing up Justice and Defense and other LEGAL issues.. The point I was attempting to make here was: the obvious pecuniary use of the legal system, and its complicity in this cash cow for lawyers. I was not talking about "justice", or your "right to a lawyer" for your "criminal defense" This little money machine has as much to do with "criminal" and "justice" as a fish has to do with bicycles and THAT IS THE POINT. This is Lawyers, who understand and exploit a system built by lawyers for the convenience of lawyers to screw non lawyers. More Lawyers basically saying: "You dirty guys" while actually thinking: "why didn't I think of that?" is NOT a valid critque of this. As I said: This whole business model cheapens the very fabric of Law in America.
Remember, most politicans start out as Lawyers......
So, to protect against a lawyer, you must hire a lawyer. Old old saying... "To catch a thief.." This whole circumstance does quite the job cheapening the whole legal system. Using what proports to be the mechanics of the law as a revenue stream, and the fact that other lawyers, judges and members of this so called profession condone this by their silence says buckets about the profession itself.
In the 1929 crash the problem was partially blamed on the ticker tape running at times up to 1 hour late. Before computers there were people you could blame.
with a "oh what can it matter?" 2 lines of code added by one programmer that does not meet the strict rules, interacts 3 months down the line with some other component in a totally unforseen way that makes an arm which runs a photo cell whack another component spinning the whole rig into oblivion. Sort of like a Microsoft service pack update
"I realize you are a big jock on the football team, Letterman, and enjoyed kicking sand in my face at the beach this summer, Also that I am a big eared nerd with taped glasses and a pen protector in pocket, but if you don't do what I say My Space will display those compromising pictures of the party at Coach's house that you THOUGHT you had erased from your phone. Oh and don't worry, I PROMISE Becky-Sue will enjoy her date with me.."
I thought this played out once before in court. Only that time poor poor Microsoft was the innocent defendent and big bad Apple was the Evil litigator. As I recall, Apple lost. Ballmer should remember his chair is for sitting on and calm down!
Where is it written that Youtube is the ONLY place to host video? If YouTube has a policy like this the answer seems simple: go elsewhere . Long before they became the clearinghouse of film, folks hosted things on sites all over the net. We got by. Many of the things you find there today, first were found on some other site.. Also, I see another phenomena here; when slick Hollyweird stuff is out there in this sort of venue, right next to non-commercial or commercial and outside the mainstream, and you compare it with say home grown fare, the homegrown is usually better. Also the advert money is what is really is at stake here. Can you imagine: "Ghostrider: The Upsala Run" brought to you by....?
If you have a Apple and a pad; try writing "Rosetta!" three times. It was a Newton Easter Egg and from what I have heard migrated into OS X from its smaller cousin.
this seems more FUD then anything. lets have a Crisis du jour. It just seems the answer to any "Crisis" is to throw money at it. Money that will land in a teleco's pocket who will be more then happy to help us with this very limited bandwidth commodity. Perhaps we will even get some new 300 baud lines...
I am also in Oregon and Mister, I don't care if your oposition to the sales tax is due to alien communications or your pet ferret thinks its a bad idea as long as you oposes it!
NINE times we have voted on a sales tax. 9 times it has been voted out... and they STILL keep proposing it.. When will the wastrels we call Gu'bmint figure it out? WE know your game and we want NO PART OF IT HERE!
Doesn't anyone think the Search function in 10.3 worked just fine and that Spotlight (AKA "Son of Sherlock") is to much liek Microsoft's offering? What of the simple search those who KNOW searching need?
What I mean is. Say I am looking for a file and I know it contains blarg in the file name. In various search engines/opsys I issue some varriant of "Find *blarg.* or Blarg-wildcard and there is my list, with the folder/directory whatever...it is in. Spot-lite seems to find any web page somone might have thought a while the word Blarg but never actually said it, every word that has B L A R G somewhere in ascii inside etc. The final result after beachball heaven is confusing, (but Insanley great) and none are arranged in a manner you can get at it,, open it, easlily figure out where it is. but my its so tasty and arty!
10.3 had a SIMPLE search that WORKED! Today I use a product called EASYFIND. and wait a while... I HATED SHERLOCK THEN, AND EYE CANDY DOESN'T MAKE IT ANY BETTER TODAY...
Agreed. send this tax money to me...now you can keep the 25 mill, that 2 bucks will add up to BILLIONS!
2. Train/Metro in every major US city
forget it! I want my 2 bucks Baby!
3. Large installation of windmills
agreed; burning all that gas to pay me the 2 bucks will make lots of smoke. Fan it Eslewhere
4. A miracle and revolution in the US to a systemm where our representatives do not get campaign money from industries that benefit from pumping pollution into the sky.
What? remove the politican's main reason for being?
Sorry to be flipant but I live in Oregon and our chief Climatologist just went on record based on his professional opinion, you know... as a Climatologist...that this whole thing is hokum, and the main polution related issue to look out for here is the smoke and mirrors..
Until I am absolutely sure the TV pundents, Al Gore, my barber and the guy in line at the 7-11 have better info, I go with him
Indeed. There is not a single zillion dollar toilet seat on board, the average age of employees is somewhat less then 60, and they have a real fiscal agent called a Financial Officer looking at the bucks spent. The Shuttle on the other hand uses 8086 era tech, systems that are so obsolete that the fellow who designed them is not just retired, he is dead, and other such inovations. Yep. a company is not in the same game as NASA....Thank Goodness!

Tis nice to see valuable return on money invested in political "leaders"

Never confuse the mutually exclusive terms "taxes" and "rights", other then the fact that taxes and death are the only two rights we all share...
Michael Dell is back as the Chairman... Steve Balmer is a chairman..
chair and chair alike.....
