  1. Re:I hope on Electronic Arts Facing Possible Class Action Lawsuit · · Score: 0

    That's the problem isn't it? Exploiting the courts, pushing the settlements and punishments higher and higher until everyone is afraid their shadow will block out the light for someone who happens to trip on a loose rock that would otherwise have been seen.

    If it starts becoming expected too frequently, then something would have to change


    Then it probably starts becoming expected by your coworkers too, sometimes just pointing out to the management that there is enough work here to employ another person. Since that person will not be payed overtime for his normal hours it would make the company save money. A bonus is showing management you can think of resonable solutions to the little problems that can come up around the workplace.

    The problem with this standpoint isn't job security, they can't really fire you for doing the 40 hour workweek.
    The problem is if something unexpected comes up and extra work is needed to take care of it, if you then stand by your 40 hour work week and just go home you will not be considered a team player and advancement/pay increase may be lower or nonexistant.
    Is not working 5-10 hours extra / month really worth it? Not to me it isn't.

  4. Sounds great to me. on VectorLinux 4.3 - Rocket Fueled Slackware · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think this may be what gets me into Linux, I have an old 266MHz computer that isn't doing anything.

  5. Re:Glad to see they're acting now on AOL Files First Spim Lawsuit · · Score: 0

    For some strange reason, the only time I ever get ICQ spam/spim is when I use go.icq.com at work. When I use it I get 1 message / day or maybe 1 in 2 days. Whenever I use a "real" ICQ client I never get any.

    I know that, however since the car which sounds like it was pretty new "electronic key thingy". The designers may have gone a little to far with the electrical stuff and made the breaks just like the gas controlled by a microprocessor. On the other hand that might be illegal.

    Sounds to me there was a glitch in the software and that's why the car didn't break when he slammed the breaks.

  25. Re:Power is an important ingredient ! on Anatomy of a LAN Party? · · Score: 0

    We used to be allowed to be in some school dining room on the weekends. We also had this problem, another problem was getting people to understand that the fuse would blow again if they didn't switch to another outlet.

    The biggest problem however was convincing the guy whose BNC calbe was broken that his BNC cable was in fact broken... 50% of the time it was the same guy, he probably hated me for telling him his cable was broken.
