I use Adium so they never showed up. But they showed up on my friends' computer whom has Adium as well. But i have privacy set to ignore people not on the buddy list where she does not, other then that our setups are the same (I set them up)
maybe AOL knows I dont give a shit.
Web: I use Safari and block the popups, the other stuff i dont care about, i've never clicked on any web ads
TV: DishDVR through Dish Network, TiVo even pisses me off, all those beeps and now they are putting ads into it, I like my DishDVR so much more. Also with Spike TV having 5 hours of StarTrek every weekday, what geek would be without a DVR?
Mags: just flip past them or rip them out, if they dont give out free ciggs then i could care less
the ssn is just one of the ways we verify citizinship, people that are not real citizans have different number codes for the prefix. This is setup by the SSN admin and is very reliable and it does say that we have the authority to close the account as another comment below shows:
"Under the proposed definition, a bank will not necessarily need to establish whether a potential customer is a U.S. citizen. The bank will have to ask each customer for a U.S. taxpayer identification number (social security number, employer identification number, or individual taxpayer identification number). If a customer cannot provide one, the bank may then accept alternative forms of identification."
That gives us the authority to close the accounts if they are not citizans, but we do not have to. The reason we do this is to prevent people from out of the country getting access to one of our cards to pay for flight school or chemicals and then using it for some sort of attack.
but its quite a bit harder to verify someone with other information as Drivers Licenses are easy to make fakes of and what other identification is there then, no SSN, a DL that is very likely fake. yeah we should definitly give you a credit card as we have no idea who you are. And in order to verify someone with a DL they have to have a card already and be at a store, and we then have additional steps to verify they are really at the store. There are so many times a day that someone calls telling me that they are at a store and hand the phone off to a clerk when really its just some guy and his buddies at a payphone outside.
you should go through my training.
To start out, i work in a security division of a credit card company.
under the patriot act if a credit card company asks for your ssn you must give it to them to validate yourself as a citizan. If you dont give it to us, we can close your account.
even if you dont give it to me, i can pull it up using FastData web or Accurent using just your address or phone number, along with anyone else that has ever lived there or had that phone number.
so next time you call a credit card company at least, just give it to us, we have it anyways. stop being such a pain in my ass. and if you dont and we close your account its your own damn fault.
My Basestation has always worked fine for travel, i've never found the size to be restricting. However this product's 20foot range could turn into a problem.
The AirPort has done this for years, share the dialup over wireless. WOW huge revolution here. There were probably even products before AirPort. Delete this article, its all been done before, and at a lower price with more features/function.
i do, plus virtual boy, gameboy advanced, Gameboy SP, Playstation 1, 2 Playstation 2s, a Sega Saturn, Sega Genesis, GameGear, Dreamcast and an Atari 7800.
XBrick i will never own. you could not pay me to own one of those...
my T3 isnt really a bigger better zire with "a few extra features" its compleatly different and runs a different OS version on a different hardware platform.

i was talking about the original zire, not the 21 or 71, but i still would not get one of them over the T3.
