I've seen it a few times on my g4 mini. More so then bsods on my current windows box, but it was mostly associated with a non-apple usb wireless adapter which I got rid of, so I can't really bitch.
Right. Now we have that ever-so-helpful "you need to restart your computer" thing in four different languages. It doesn't even mention an error anymore.
The idea that Quake or any other FPS teaches people to aim a gun is fairly foolish, as it does nothing to show people how to line up their sights and get an appropriate sight picture. However, having been trained in the military how to shoot after having almost no experience with firearms prior to that, I can tell you that training someone in the basics of aiming and firing a weapon can be done in a very short amount of time (twenty minutes or so in a classroom environment). You can also easily do a Google search and find out pretty much anything you need to know to figure it out for yourself.
There is a legitimate argument to be made that Zionism has, quite contrary to its intent, encouraged a new round of antisemitism and made the world less safe for the Jewish people, not more safe.
A new round of antisemitism? What fucking planet do you live on? Would you care to point out a gap between the "old" antisemitism and the "new" antisemitism? Antizionism is, much of the time, merely antisemitism attempting to be respectable. The "antizionist" propaganda coming from the left wingers is identical to that of the skinheads and neo-nazis, and pretty much looks exactly the same as what was produced by Goebbels.
Not really. He was found guilty, but since congress had granted him blanket immunity to testify before during congressional hearings, his conviction was thrown out. The politicians were looking to nail more senior people, and in pursuit of that, made it so North couldn't go to jail for what he did.
It sounds like a bunch of grad students got together and convinced someone to fund a brewery that they had rigged up in the basement of the science building. I can just picture a bunch of guys sitting around drinking beer and trying to write a grant proposal. "Oh hell, just tell them it's a fucking fuel cell...."
BS, that happens all of the time. It's just that it rarely makes the news because the press could give a rats ass about reasoned intelligent discussion. Some screaming blowhard ranting on some random subject makes for better ratings because it's more entertaining than having some academic type discussing how we can reasonably and economically do X over the next few years which will achieve some desired result.
But my 85-year-old uncle probably will never own an iPod, and I hope we'll get him to own a Zune. Well, duh, he's family. In the Ballmer family, iPods are verboten. And if you can't convince your elderly uncle to buy your personal music player or girl scout cookies or what have you, then you have no business being in business.
Christ, you'd think the cheap bastard would have bought his uncle one by now. It's not like he doesn't have a couple bucks stashed away. He'd probably even get an employee discount.
LOL. I end up saying something like that every couple of months.
The truth is, most people look at politics like they look at sports. Their "team" is to be backed under all cirumstances, while the bad guys can do no right.
Or maybe that "Casandra" is actually Greek in origin. But you know, sometimes people just make mistakes, and you can just leave it alone and not be an ass unessarily to someone else. Just in case you didn't know.
Linux Mint. An Ubuntu based distro that uses French female release names. The latest release is Bianca and the next one will be Casandra. So you can tell you parents it's Mint Linux, Bianca, as opposed to Ubuntu, Feisty Fawn. Also, the blue/green theme it uses out of the box looks nicer than the orange/brown of Ubuntu.
Ack. I pretty much hate government interfering in the free market, but the printer/ink/toner industry is such a fucking scam right now I'd be behind government regulating the whole damned industry. We have an old wide format printer at work that we are nursing along because ink cartridges only cost $3 a piece. Anything else runs $40-50, and the cartridges last about half as long. God damned greedy bastards.
If the friends and own parent couldn't look in his eyes and believe him when he was saying "I didn't do it", then they are much more guilty than him.
When he was initially being accused his parents came to the school and the tape of the bomb threat was played for them. According to them, they both told the principle that the voice on the recording was not that of their son. The principle disregarded them and called the police. So pretty much from the get go the parents believed that their son was not guilty.
Not really. The article suggests it had more to do with population size than anything else. large brains, cognitive abilities, and bipedalism only serve to change what is selected for, not to blunt selection itself.
You should also add "when it is safe to do so." A few months ago, at an intersection next to the building where I work, a policeman went through a red light with his lights and sirens going, but did so when he was traveling too fast for drivers going through the green light to react in time and when he was unable to see the crossing section of road so that he could tell if people where crossing there. He broadsided a car while doing close to 50 miles an hour (made a terrible racket outside) and he and the driver of the car he hit both ended up with critical injuries. I imagine that this was against department policy, but I don't think the cop got more than slap on the wrist for what happened.
Well it's not like we're going to ship a backhoe to mars any time soon, so finding some pre-existing holes in the ground to use just might make establishment of a base just a tad bit more convenient.
Standard practice for truck drivers. Banging through 9 or 10 gears and having to double clutch when shifting is hard on the left knee after a while, so drivers just shift without the clutch by syncing the RPMs up manually, allowing the transmission to slide in and out of gear with just fingertip pressure. Anybody that doesn't/can't do this is pretty much considered a n00b.
Seriously. For just about every piece of electronics gear that I've ever bought, the company I bought it from came out with a better model at a different price point after a while. What is there to bitch about here?
Now picture trying to do that after being woken from a dead sleep in the middle of the night, when all the while alarms are blaring and annoying the living hell out of you. And this is not so long ago-- the US Coast Guard was still using ancient PDP8s in the early 1990s to track their LORAN timing signals. Entering the bootstrap in on the front panel binary switches was not a thing of joy.

Not if you went to school in the Yukon. Really, if you don't tell us were the hell he was driving to, it doesn't tell us much, now does it?

Yeah, but you'll be able to pay real $$$ for really cool expansion items like horse armor and houses! The old games never had any of that!

You don't remember the nutty conspiracy theories of a bygone era? Ah...kids these days, I swear.
