well, it is Wal-Mart.
Somewhere along the way the RIAA has to get a cut, and they have to buy a bowl of rice for a Chinese family. You think rice grows on trees? What about the amazing social commentaries turned out recently?
Does not Cuba Gooding deserve another Academy Award for his astounding performance alongside Horatio Sanz in the blockbuster comedy about two men trapped, disenfranchised, and coming to terms with the human condition and status quo among the gay community, "Boat Trip"?
Is not the sky blue?

I'm one of those users that's been driven away by attitudes like that. I've known about Knoppix, seen it, but never used it. This li'l booklet might actually make me feel comfortable doing something outside my safe and cozy realm of Slackware/RedHat noobism.
Right on man, when i was 11 i wanted a vcr. my dad bought me 5 vcrs that were all broken at yard sales. in 2 days we had 4 vcrs that worked with rubberband belt replacements and one that had been taken apart and rebuilt to make the read-heads scoot the tape-holder-thingy around on the floor really fast. Cost dad 20 bucks and i got out of his hair for a weekend. and everyone in the house had a vcr, including our giving one to my gramma.
uhmm....if Blanka's his brother's favourite character, would it not follow that the child knows everything about Blanka's bio. Vis-a-vis carrying on healthy discourse with family, like good humans do? Like....caring about his brother's favourite things and whatnot...I know my nephew's bio, because he's my brother's favourite son. We're just a little older.
Hell, I remember watching "Doctor Who" with my brother when I was 5 because I loved spending time with him. He was a hero of mine, mainly because he could do woodcarvings (I still have one on my desk) and build ANYTHING out of Legos. I practiced for a long time to get as good as him at Legos and electronics. Just like he tried to be like our father.
Is it so hard to believe that maybe the kid has a good family?
I saw Gleaming the Cube when I was 8. I thought the steel wheels were awesome, and Slater's admonition to "really tighten the trucks." Also, the fact that it was an Asian adopted brother he is fighting to avenge really endeared him to me.
lmao. I deliver pizza to some of the best (and by best I mean worst) white trash in Arkansas. There's only so many times you can get hit on by 3 female generations of the same family living in the same trailer before you want to vomit or go a little Frank Miller in the trailer park.
Most well-evolved MUDs have this in a form called Avatars or something similar. And a pray channel. Newbies pray and a LVL X player who has proven themself helpful can respond. Using that format and a decent training zone with well-written help files, MUDs are a lot easier to get into nowadays than they were say...6-10 yrs ago
If we handed this project over to three 17 year old pothead Flash programmers it'd be done in 4 hours with an original soundtrack and Kung Fu stick figures of Kerry and Bush fighting and succeeding based on how you voted.
I've worked third shift jobs and know that many people like to work from home at night or just stay up late. This leaves us time to sleep and escape the rays of the evil day star. Getting telephone calls during our deepest sleep cycles makes us really, really pissy. Like pissy enough to aim our cars at fellow travellers. Pissy enough to punch children. Pissy enough to swear at customers and lose our jobs. Etc. Telemarketers are evil. Period. Except my cable company. They give me HBO for X-mas.
...this bring about the change to IPv6 that much sooner? A few million TV-IPs is just what we need to make sure we address responsibly.
Think of all those TVs hooked up to your local pipeline, DSL speeds will be amazing...SBC can't even keep a decent DSL speed in a college town in AR, wtf is this going to do to us?
Right on brother. I'm still rocking a 2600 and a NES that are in perfect working order. My freaking MarioPaint mouse is still good, so is my Superscope 6. WTF can't an Xbox work for 25 years?
People who buy this won't be interested in it for the battery life. You'll be able to sit in your living room feeding on television and playing live over the internet wirelessly, with your PSP plugged into the wall.
My main question is, "is there a TV Out?" I hate tiny screens, but I could deal with one as "practice" while I was mind-numbingly bored at my parent's over Thanksgiving. I'd definitely want to plug the little bastard into a TV though.
When I was working in a gas station in Indy, I'd MUD and read/. at the counter on my laptop.
I've also checked up on/. from a stripper's apartment before I left for work.
Anyone remember a thing called Battery Cola? It was an offshoot of Jolt about 5 years back, came in a black and gold can and had + and - on the tops and bottoms. Looked like a big Duracell.
It was touted as having the maximum legal amount of caffeine or some BS.
Friend of mine who was constantly lethargic due to MUDding bought a six-pack of that stuff our senior year of high school for a party we were having at his house. My other friends and I all purchased some also.
Anyway, lethargic friend drinks all six of his and proceeds to take an innumerable number of pisses, after which his only comment was, "damn, I feel normal all of the sudden." Shortly after this he started getting proper sleep and lost the soporific edifice we had all come to associate with him.
That's how I got through my Sophomore year. I called it, "Yellowjacket sleep" and found that I got best results when sleeping on the love seat. You awaken feeling as though you can teleport like some Dragonball Z offshoot.
It's also a good way to get to work on time after a night of boozing and whoring.

uh...this DIY player has a built-in FM transciever(sp). tune your existing car stereo to it.

Oh, and don't forget the environmental beauty that still lives on in those worker's paradises.

Find and destroy those blasted meat-robots!
Thank you for beating me to it. Luckily, I watched Mystbusters, so I wasn't the first.
Yeah, it would probably have a nice scream moment in the middle of ammendment voting.
and you'd have to throw a spear really far to vote for a 3rd party candidate.
and of course the obligatory badger dance.
Right on. How hard is a fucking counter?
If we handed this project over to three 17 year old pothead Flash programmers it'd be done in 4 hours with an original soundtrack and Kung Fu stick figures of Kerry and Bush fighting and succeeding based on how you voted.
And it would be RELIABLE. Jeez.
