Yes, your loan will be approved as soon as you log on at www.BankuvAmerica.com or www.AmericanExpresso.com with all of your info, and our Nigerian Banker-trained associates will take REAL good care of you!
Yeah, sounds like a real good way of doing finances to me, hehehe.
RTFA! CUSTOMS, not FedEx or MPAA is doing the opening of the packages. Try another cup of coffee, you will wake up and be able to understand then...maybe.
I think a Sony style rootkit on the DVD would also be funny, along with a good collection of some of the nastiest malware available to *help* the rootkit along.
After the initial WTF?!?!, the first thought that popped into my head was of an incident that occured in W. Germany, 1979 while I was stationed there (US Army). We (us hash smokers) had a contact in the MP detatchment that would alert us when they were going to bring the dogs in the barracks for *surprise* drug sniffing ops. Usually we would just consume all substances before they got there. One time my team mate got an idea.... We used Johnson's Paste Wax (tm) on our barracks floors (as required) to keep it nice and shiny, the barracks used steam radiators for heat, which we would set the can of wax on to soften it for easier application...."what if we melt the wax, crumble up oh, say about 10 grams of hash into the melted wax, then heavily wax the floors?"
Well, overkill being one of my team's trademarks, it ended up we mixed 30 grams of some really good "bubblegum black" hash into the wax, used the whole can on the entryway floor, and buffed.
The MP's and two dogs showed up about half an hour later- the dogs went NUTS! They both went running around in little circles howling and whining for about 30 seconds, then bolted for the door trying to exit the barracks, the MP's could not gain control and had to let them out of the building.
Several of the remaining MP's made a search, but could not find anything.:)
Later on our contact told us that whatever we did totally burnt out the two dogs- they were worthless as "sniffing" dogs after that and were put on patrol duty. We never did tell him what we had done. (I use the term contact because he was one of our suppliers- we got most of our hash from such MP's!)
Now, off to my lab to synth some "Pirated DVD Smell" to spray on ALL of my mail/packages! Muuhahhaahhaaahhaa;)
Well said!:) I'll be looking for this post when I metamoderate since I don't have mod points to give you currently (best I can do, sorry!), but again, nice post.
Every time I'm about to give up on/. (due to the insipid drivel), along comes a post like this (yours) that keeps me hanging on. Thanks. (I think!?);)
Add another to the list- I always disable msmessenger on my Xp boxes,any other IM apps on my *nix boxes, and do not allow any IM app's to be installed on any box on my network. If the user's don't like it- tough, that's what a phone is for. For when email or snail mail just isn't fast enough, the phone has worked wonders for decades.
*BONK* Hit the nail on the head, you did. It's a competetive market out there, yes, I understand that. But get innovative (ie:stop trying to rest on your laurels), or get left behind. This has nothing to do with consumer's rights, nothing to do with justice, this only came after the recent trial. Why, if this is really an issue, did it wait until now? Smacks of oppurtinism to me, not legitimate in my book.
"Lastly, I call bullshit on the figure of USD 7/hour for an entry level tech job in the US..."
Consider yourself called- Creative Labs (Stillwater,Oklahoma) starts pay at 7.00 per hour after two week "training" (basically how to get the caller to the Kbase, and how to use their in-house sales software). You are expected to limit call times to 8 minutes maximum, sell the caller something, then get them to Kbase to actually get their support. Not second-hand info, I tried working their, only lasted 9 months, had to leave due to feeling "dirty".
Before a slow and painful execution, he should have his anal sphincter jerked up around his adam's apple, his scrotum tied (in a proper square knot) behind his ears, then beat with a baseball bat until dead.;)
Yeah, I also wondered about this. Bash M$ for the same thing, but don't mess with my "pain in everyone else's ass" cell phone! Heh, seems like we never learn. I for one can't wait for the feces to hit the fan, and will LOL at all of them when it happens. As it is now, in my home the standing rule is: turn of your cell phone upon entering- if it rings and disturbs me, I reserve the right to tie the offender's scrotum behind their ears.;)
"It is driven by an open-ended mission to organize the world's knowledge..." and: "Google seems to have grasped the new century's most important business lesson: The capacity to evolve is the most important advantage of all."
My bet is on Google to solce the problems of a working A.I., maybe by accident, maybe by design.
I don't know....after first page all I could get was: "Sorry, we couldn't find the page you were looking for. Return to our home page. Leave us feedback." Tho' I was using Firefox with no script and adblock plus extensions!:)
LOL! Don't forget having to pass a test to get a license just to drive it somewhere! Yeah, we want our appliances/tools to "just work", but don't care to make sure our brains "just work". It's a funny world, full of funny people.;)
"Person drops dead on the floor in front of you, all of a sudden you can look up exactly what to do and what could be wrong." WTF??!! He's dead, Jim....bury the poor f*cker already! What do you need to look up on Google?
You may be dating yourself with the Clockwork Orange reference! I am now dismayed that I used up the last of my mod points this morning, so here is some applause!!!!! ( if had points, would give +2 insightful)
I guess we might as well get used to seeing this from now on: every month= game sales down, **AA crying that movie profits are down and music sales (CD's) are down, none of them can get a clue I guess, a lot of are tired of DRM, high prices, and slipping quality and us sheep are looking for better pastures.

Well, we know you can't guess worth s**t. If you had bothered to read RTFA, you would have already known that they purchased this chip retail.
;)
So, stay stupid, keep guessing wrong, keep not reading the articles, and I will always have a dumbass to deride!
Well said! :)
