Remember KISS... my mother bugged me for a week to come and fix her computer (we live in the same city) because her new DVD-RW "wouldn't copy anything". Turns out Nero has 2 buttons at the top corner of the main menu... "Click here for DVDs/Click here for CDs" and she had the wrong one selected.
He couldn't erase it from the computer image... although I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to modify the system to use little transmitters to determine which device was being used. Heck, that was like 4 years ago anyway. There's probably a new model out that does just that by now.
My profs had a board that hung on the wall and behaved for all intents and purposes just like a regular white board... but it had a pressure-sensitive thing underneath it so that the marker could be tracked to an image on the computer. Wish I knew who made it... he'd just hit "capture" after a boardful of physics and post it to his website for studying.
If that's the case, why is it still called PLAYstation? I guess because they couldn't use "Sony 360" or "Sony Revolution". Marketing droids... [sigh] they're just not creative. It's kinda sad, isn't it?
Strangely enough, I'm voting Insightful. Wish I had points to enforce that with... who really cares about "blogebrities"? I've noticed that/. does this more and more frequently. "Oooh! They said blog! We must report!" or "Oooh! Today is day 7 of Star Wars in theaters, let's post another random article so/.ers can say Lucas raped their childhood memories!" Why can't we have more stories like the one this morning about Voyager?
If only they would make this game multiplayer... I loved Morrowind, but if you could work together to accomplish things (or even work separately, just on the same map) this game would have even more appeal. I don't want an MMORPG, I'm thinking like a 2-player or 3-player mode.
Netscape released a statement saying that people who downloaded the browser labeled 8.0 actually got a mis-labeled copy of 7.9.9.9.9. The new version 8.1 will actually be 8.0 and the following patches labeled 8.1.1, 8.1.2, and 8.1.2.1, which will be released daily starting tomorrow, will be relabeled as 8.0.1, 8.1.0, and 8.1.2, respectively. ***NO CARRIER***
We apologize for the above post. Those who were responsible for sacking those who were just sacked, have been sacked.
Not according to the "definition" of binge drinking... 5 or more consecutive standard-size drinks for guys, 4 for gals. Consecutive meaning drinking them within a short time span, less than a few hours. So it's pretty close, but not quite. Still, if it reduces non-binge drinkers 50%, it should have *some* effect...
Hehe, if MY last boss fell off a ladder, the rest of the world would be crippled (Imagine a man who could sit in every seat of a Ford Focus at the same time).
You're exactly right, too... sales in his store have consistently gone down since I left. I wasn't a good salesperson, either. He's just receiving the rewards of being such an arse.
Why is the "web browser" even considered a "market"? It's not like I pay any extra for IE. For that matter, most of these browsers are free, right? So what exactly is gained by having 98% of the universe using the same browser? AFAICT, this amounts to a "Mine's bigger" war between the browsers. Not flaming here, I really want to know.
Go to Wal-Mart and grab the $9.99 knockoff of Mavis. That will teach you which fingers type which keys. After that, download any instant messaging program and talk to (at minimum) 3 people at a time. Once you can keep up with these conversations, you'll get a lot faster. Someone suggested somewhere up there that it's also important to always type correctly. I tend to do this, even in IM windows. Also, focus on frequently used words. It's rare that I type "teh" in anything anymore because I've developed a pattern that is comfortable for me and is accurate.
We'll probably have to wait a while. Personally, I don't want to see more Star Trek until they get Tweedledee and Tweedledum out of the producers' chairs. They stood on the shoulders of a giant and made a mess of his vision. Perhaps bring in some of the authors of Star Trek novels? Several of those books are pretty good reads... As for a time period, I'm thinking maybe post-Voyager (but not too long after).

If they want thier children to growup clueless and unpreparded for college, that's thier choice.
Sweet, sweet irony... Need I say more?

If you have minimum 5 drinks every night, you're beyond "binge drinking"... you're probably alcoholic.

Depends... how long did it take you to consume them? 3 years, probably not. 3 minutes, probably so.
If someone gave me a kudzu leaf, I'd probably think I'd had too much to drink already.

Um, NO.
It's O-G-L-E.

no, iBomb.
No doubt named "MinePlanter".
It's a good example though, something that everyone knows about in order to demo reverse-engineering techniques.
Yes.... that's right, give in to your anger... FEEL the hate flowing through you... now you are discovering the true power of the Dark Side...
I actually agree with you. People seem to bond over hating the same stuff. We derive some sort of tasteless superiority from "hating" things.
