They left out one thing I've seen in every description of workplace sexual harassment that I have a huge problem with: unwanted sexual advances. Really, how do you know it's unwanted until you make at least ONE advancement?
I was recently informed too by a guy really anxious to use "RTFA" on me. What's the worst that can happen if you want to print low on ink? It's not like flying a plane low on fuel.. or is it? Will a printer burst into flames when it runs out of ink mid-job?
This could exacerbate a problem with the SR-71 as far as friction goes. Like with the Concorde, the SR-71 would expand due to the heat from the friction. This would cause it to leak fuel while sitting on the ground and it would have to refuel after take off and heating up.
So you have an aircraft in the works that'll go almost twice as fast as its predecessor, so the plane will only expand more and that could lead to more leaking fuel while on the ground. Does the government get a discount on petroleum? It just sounds like a concern to me of wasting fuel.
I usually run my cartridges until they start fading out. Then it's safe for a switch. Then again, I usually only print concert/plane tickets and papers for school.
It comes down to the subject. I was paid a very meager $12/hr (but the number of hours offset it a little) and helped research, design, and implement some superior advances at my last company. The pay was shit, but it didn't stop me: my image is more important than the money I felt I should've made for my contributions.
Institutions that offer IT training do turn out subpar students. Then there's just hiring the wrong people: you don't hire a 20-year programming veteran who can setup his own home wifi LAN to run an IT department. Less than half of the IT professionals I know I'd consider competent.
Cases in point:
"We'll put third-party firmware on a Linksys WRT54G and it'll be a managed switch."
"A Dell Poweredge, or any 'server', is just a company's scheme to get you to pay more money for a platform. We'll buy their desktops and put Windows 2003 on them."
"Tape drives are far superior to NAT hard disks."
I've gotten of IT and computers, albeit I still enjoy developing OSS, and going into medicine. It's hard work that pays more and has more demand.
I have a dual core on my desktop at home and HT on my machine at work. I'll take the dual core over HT any day that ends with a Y. You can multi-task so well with the Pentium D it becomes blissful.
Want to archive a DVD movie and put your favorite CD on your mp3 player? Set the two apps to run on different cores.
On the other hand, my HT workstation goes nuts-slow if I try to do two intensive tasks at once.
From what I remember in high school, administration would much rather get rid of a problem than solve it. If the engine makes a squealing noise, do you rip it out of a car? That's the mentality you deal with.
I had a friend who was suspended for 2 weeks. Some other guy attacked him over a parking space mix up (boo-damn-hoo). My friend didn't even throw a punch, he just held the guy against the wall until a dean broke them up.
Then there was the friend who said "There's a lot of mexicans on that side of town." He was expelled under some hate and racial guideline. HIS MOTHER IS MEXICAN AND GREW UP ON THAT SIDE OF TOWN!
I don't have kids, but I fear for anyone who does and they're in public school. Think about what kind of people are teaching your kids to succeed in life.
My company has us in a cave. No windows. Water seeps in under the door and brings in dust with it when it rains. There's a pool room in the same building separated by afro-engineered walls. So, 35+ hours a week, my guys are breathing chlorine.
All will be right, however. An OSHA rep said this will be a field day for them.
Typically, several tests are done. Whether it is done on one sample or multiple samples is preference of the lab. It is very possible (and likely) that the lab mislabled his and another patient's samples. So he may have never had HIV, but there is someone walking around who does and thinks he's clean.
Increase heat causes the humidity to rise. Water vapor typically has a cooling effect, yes? Think about the Island Effect. The problems you run into with high humidity and temperature comes to osmosis. In dryer environments, you sweat and the moisture immediately evaporates off your skin due to the low moisture in the air. When this is happening, your body is regulating its own temperature very well. In humid environments, say Key West, I'll sweat and sweat and the moisture just sticks to me and my shirt. As a result, it's hotter than hell outside always.
In the beginning there was a cosmic toaster and a boy. The toaster malfunctioned and wouldn't eject the toast it was making, so the boy attempted to remove it with a fork. There was a massive explosion and then there was Slashdot.
See? Now what makes that less credible than the bible? I actually found it written on a scroll 5 trillion years old in a garbage can with etched symbols which indicate it came from the center of the universe. No, really!
Ok, obviously what I wrote above is a load of bull. And I'm sure there were people thousands of years ago who lived next door to/knew anyone who contributed to any religious text was thinking the same thing.
I agree. someone purged a CO2 tank in a room in my office building. It went through the ventilation system and flooded my office. When my eyes started burning, I quickly left the room.
Think about the risk of a leak and the wildlife down there. You know, fish? They breathe oxygen that's in solution with the water? Anyone hear about these creatures? I think they were on CNN last week.
Instead of just storing pollution, why not continue the search for cleaner energy? Or just suck it up and pay the higher prices for alternatives such as solar (actually, I think that's the only one in this situation).
Bellsouth makes me pay for phone and DSL service. I never use my land line as I don't use the phone much anyway. Most calls I receive are on my nextel. Since it just became available, both my father and I are going to drop our accounts with Bellsouth and go with cable modems and Vonage. Unless Comcast uses Bellsouth's network, I really don't see how any company charging VoIP users a fee would profit when they could just use a cable network.

HP5650. Think you can find them on eBay still. Kick your extortionist printer and get one. :)

...everytime you watch a Michael Moore production, he eats a kitten.
Where is pcworld.com? I went to read the article and was bombarded by flash ads taking up the entire browser's view. And where's eBay?
I remember when bittorrent launched, the idea was to save bandwidth. Now that idea is what hurts them.

It seems this goes back to GTA: San Andreas. Why didn't Hillary go on a rampage like this when the topic was oral sex and her husband?
I thought the idea behind it was to cut down on bandwidth...
and sounds kinda kinky
Set the processor affinity just as if you have multiple CPUs.
Setting priority is one thing I don't have to do with the Pentium D. The HT I have, priorities are my friend.

Are we genetically enhanced mice or MEN?!

That wasn't very motherly.
