    ... and don't call me Shirley. ... and stop calling me Shirley! :)

  2. Re:Simple solution... on US Senator Proposes Bill To Eliminate Overtime For IT Workers · · Score: 1

    Do contract jobs even have good fringe benefits? I need those since I have multiple disabilities so that is important. :(

  3. Re:And still... on Chrome Becoming World's Second Most Popular Web Browser · · Score: 1

    Bah to the latest versions. I still use Mozilla's SeaMonkey v2.0.14 and Firefox v3.6.24 because I use many addons, and some of them don't work with the latest web browsers. I will upgrade when they are updated or have replacements. :(

  4. Re:Heard about Marathon on Aleph One 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    I could not get into Marathon since I was a big DOOM fan back then. :(

  5. Re:Is this an article from 2005? on E-Mail Can Reveal Your Friend Hierarchy · · Score: 2

    Yeah, my friends and I are old farts (over 35) and love e-mails too. Funny, we don't like IMs and real-time chats. We use e-mails as IMs! :(

  9. Re:let's see DRM, high cost of HDD's get in the wa on Good Disk Library Solutions? · · Score: 1

    Is there a way to avoid ripping BRs and just play videos directly from them like older disc formats? I noticed VLC, Windows Media Players, and other free media players don't play them natively directly? Hence, why I still haven't bought a BR drive.

  10. Re:Hell I might build one for home on $350 Hardware Cracks HDMI Copy Protection · · Score: 1

    Ditto, but I hate DMCA. I have seen people's Internet service get shut down for pirating. :(

  12. Bad timing for me! on Hard Drive Prices Up 150% In Less Than Two Months · · Score: 1

    My three years old Seagate SATA 7200 500 GB ST3500320AS HDD just started to have problems (write delays, lost connections, etc.). I also just replaced my Linux/Debian box's IDE/PATA HDD with a new 115 GB SSD (about $170 retail) because I wanted to install a new Debian installation due to my bloated and badly shaped 2004's Debian installation. It looks like I will have to spend more money. I could use my two IDE/PATA HDDs in my storage, but they're old and small. :(

    I would too since I am disabled and can't drive. However, it has to be bugless too. I don't want a buggy KITT. Wait, I would call mine KARR. :P
