I think, like you're, like rationalizing this whole thing like into something you did on on purpose. I think we're stuck with a very, very stupid and a very, very dismal looking desktop. This is depressing.
That reminds me... They should add insult tennis as a possible competitive event. I happened to witness this a couple of years ago, ironically, at a Renaissance festival -- a place other than a comicon or Star Trek convention where you'll find a large gathering of nerds.
That's why I use VLC. If VLC can't play it, I probably don't want to watch it; either that, or they'll come out with an update so I can. After all, VLC comes built-in with every legit codec installed, and, even though it doesn't use the codecs installed in WindWoes, it actually runs faster and w/ a smaller memory footprint than WMP.
That's not necessarily true. The ones who quiver in fear are the ones who do poorly in interviews. Believe it or not, there are top-notch guys in IT and in programming with exemplary resumes and (in some cases) master's degrees in CS, but cannot land a gig in their chosen fields because they have a horrible time selling themselves to prospective employers. Whether it's because these people are naturally shy, or companies see them as overqualified, or that the companies are jaded from being inundated with overpadded resumes and they get lumped with joe schmo who says he has 10 years with MS SQL, but can't even spell ODBC -- whatever the reason, these people get overlooked.
I, for example, have to keep five different resumes: one for data networking, one for Windows administration, one for UNIX, one for DBA work, and one for programming (primarily in C++, but I also write in PHP). Otherwise, recruiters think I'm full of it, or I'm not as good in that particular discipline. Case in point, a recruiter recently told me I wouldn't be a good fit for a position because it requires someone be a 'senior network engineer,' and I've passed the written portion of the CCIE! I'm sorry if I learn technology quickly, and get really good at it. It's their loss as I'm consulting, making twice what that position paid.
Ya, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't to solve engineering problems, but to analyze problems in probability theory that he wrote about. The use of using it, and it's closely related Fourier transform came only about in the 19th century for actual engineering problems.

You know, there are off-site spam filtering services out there that will filter out most of your spam, leaving your local filters to clean up the remnants. This is highly recommended if you have lots of email and limited bandwidth. I've worked at places where we only had a T1 for our site's internet connection, and the off-site service kept most of the bad email at bay without having to overload the mail server, spam filter, or the internet connection with processing mail we didn't want.
There's no excuse for you not to see it if you have a Netflix account, considering Netflix offers this movie as part of their streaming service. YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!
That's a good call on Numerical Analysis. Fortunately, I was taking it at the same time as Real Analysis, and I was able to see the correlation between the two. Not to mention that since most upper-level math courses (i.e. 3000+ or 300+, depending how your school enumerates its courses) are rich in symbolic logic, it behooves anyone studying CS to have a background in math -- as much as possible.
Then again, I was a Math major in college, and not CS.

In that vein, considering impotence is a major side effect of most anti-depressants, I take it the more flaccid junior is, the more likely we're to believe an anti-depressant is working?
I just want to make sure I know what's going on.
Not all Senators/Congressmen are like this -- some feel that being voted into office gives them the right to decide as he/she sees fit. Considering the number of topics that each has to consider on a regular basis, that Senator or that Congressperson cannot go back to the constituency every time there's an issue to discuss; otherwise, the whole process has become inefficient (which is why we live in a REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC, not a DEMOCRACY). They all have agendas, but they also see that their election into office is (dare I say it) a MANDATE from the voting public to decide as they wish. Granted, that mandate doesn't include impropriety, but that's another topic altogether.
I've heard this from the Democrats for years (at least since '04), but let's not forget that they've been doing it for years. Where the Republicans tell people that their opponents are unpatriotic, socialist/communist, and looking to take away your hard-earned money, the Democrats have been telling us for years that if you don't support them that we'd support the destruction of the environment, the kicking-out of the elderly out into the streets, the starvation of children, sweatshops, racism, or whatever Leftist viewpoint they were espousing. There's no difference, but the Republicans have just gotten better at it over the last few years. I'm not saying it's right, but tactics like these have been part of politics for probably centuries now. I think it's kind of chicken of the Left; after all, it seems to me is that the Dems are upset that the GOP is beating them at their own game and want to call such rhetoric unfair.

Been there -- done that.
No, no! It's Ludacris speed! We's gotsta sells to that young, hip, urban, market... like to the dilly-yo, yo!
Or, maybe the Chinese took time off from spamming to watch the Olympics.

Perhaps, someone can invent some sort of lasertag-type system w/ lightsabers or something...
I too paranoid to do that. That's too many hands touching my vote; it'd be like playing telephone to vote for my elected officials.

Considering that there are only seven guys in p0rn industry, I don't think he has to worry about competition just yet.
Is that before or after her voice chip got swapped with IT GI Joe?

Why would you do this? You're just setting yourself up for identity theft along with the physical theft.
nobody.com expires in August. I'm sure that would get lots of mail, too.

Nice response, Mr. Tufnel.

"In Sweden..." That's right out of The Anarchist's Cookbook (the movie, that is).
