Don't swallow the corporate bullshit. You still have a few rights, at least don't fight against them. It's so frigging difficult to not fight against my rights with those lawyers these days! Tomorrow I'm going to fight against my freedom and serenity too. Makes life a hell more snappier!
Or smart? Either this is a nice marketing ploy to sell more products with 20%/50% reduction;
Or they are really stupid not forwarding this case towards the real con-artists, the HDD manufacturers printing the wrong information on their products? This playing-with-numbers-charade could end right now if they add a few large HDD manufacturers to the process.
If I should have waited longer to create an account to reply to one of the posts on/. I wouldn't be able to brag about this!
For the parent poster:
one has to wonder where all the low uid people have gone? Still, the lower ID users are here, if you don't like an item, don't read it, ignore it... It's not any more simple than this. A lot of noise on/. does not mean it's braindead!
If you really don't like this news system, create one yourself? You'll notice you will not be doing the best of all worlds for everyone.H
On another side, I've repaired my powerbook pro with another brand harddrive, non-apple-branded; it's even smaller! did I void my lifestyle now? depressive....
Frankly, I've not been thinking about this simple solution; while the movietheaters do the same to display their schedules here in Belgium. I've got to test that for coding, now if only those monitor supports would be a bit cheaper to put 2/3 LCD's together with 1 arm...
400 Euro to attach 2 monitors is outragious, knowing one 22/24" monitor costs about 400Euro too!
I've been buying +300 WD's for over 10 years now; had 2 disks DOA and 4 disks which died later on. Most of the older disks I got stored in a container as extra backup.
One of these disks dying is even my own fault by tilting it while writing. Also, I've been hearing stories at my suppliers; disks made around JUNE-OCTOBER are mostly the ones with the most problems. I wouldn't know it's a general believe although I'm for sure checking my labels before assigning a disk to a server as precaution to myself.
I've had plenty of other drives dying, IBM, Seagate, Maxtor, Hitachi. My last 2 crashes were my Powerbook PRO and with an IBM disk. Had best effects with IBM, WD and Maxtor to be honest. Maybe I was most lucky with WD's? My first choice will always be a WD.
The Western Digital warranty has always been inbetween 3-5 years, so, I really wonder if your supplier was kosher at all? They got a very fast and extensive warranty program which even allows you to send your front-plate and keep the disk with your precious data.
My suppliers got problems getting the normal LCD screens ; they are all widescreen. I've been forced to buy 2 widescreen LCD's because none of my suppliers could get me decent 20/22" non-widescreen LCDs. Pretty annoying when coding overnight through a secure shell session, I must say...
They wouldn't be IT professionals if they'd jump another wagon every single minute.
Working for over 10 years with the same tools/software makes it a profession on itself. Still, after 10 years I'm learning new stuff about Sendmail, diverse FTP servers, CVS, Linux kernel hacking, etc..
Does that mean I need to switch to Solaris because I'm afraid of change? Or get my mind sharpened up with the stuff I already know much about? The learning curve is often too steep to allow changes between software/hardware.
If it works, keep it working, optimize it, but don't overhaul it.
It's CanSecWest, not CamSecWest. Or is that country now called Canada? I guess, there, everyone is a Comedian... You seem to have 2 spelling errors, fixed that for you..
I've been taking pictures of myself since I was 14; which may have included some nude pictures too. Can I be charged as pedophile while having my own pictures on disk?
If so, I wonder, since when is possessing your own body on image illegal?

Mothers Against Drunken Flyers! ... If I could only find back that ms-excel fly-simulator!
Guess I'm too drunk for that.
The only difference is that it's written in Perl; still; I like WebGUI as much as I like Drupal.
I've always liked Coranto, also written in Perl but a lot more user-friendly & much smaller in footprint.
cmsmatrix is also coincidentially hosted by plainblack if my mind doesn't leave me now...
I've got a four-digit userid you insensitive clod!
Nice UID by the way, random or chosen?

Kinky!
I am still trying to figure out wether this is a dating advert (for some atleast) or a breach in security..
Nowadays they got ROT-312 and ROT-624 encryption, most new cpu's can handle that load just fine!

I've been using pure IPA for years to clean video-heads and tape-heads, which are made of metal.
100% IPA can leave nasty marks on a plastic surface. When using with plastic it's advised to delute with water for atleast 50%.
I don't really think your work is appreciated... ... if you got multiple axe murderers a year behind you screaming in pain.
... he was an early riser?
So, I guess it does work!
Are you sure that Reality Distortion Field is turned on ?
You insensitive clod, they are talking about Freddy Mercury, can't you read ?
You took the wrong directory on your system, here I fixed it for you.

Didn't know you like pony's
A much easier question:
I've been taking pictures of myself since I was 14; which may have included some nude pictures too.
Can I be charged as pedophile while having my own pictures on disk?
If so, I wonder, since when is possessing your own body on image illegal?
