    All the richies in Nigeria are dead. And Nigeria won't be rich once all the banking officials contact their american collegues under the strictest confidence and get the money out of the country.

    I second that... I can only control what I do: how I drive, what I drive, etc... it's all for nothing if some turd rams me with his big ass truck cuz he doesn't know what he's doing, or is too stupid to care. So, if idiot gets a big truck, I feel more protected in a bigger truck.

    Personally, I've have a 2 - 4 button trackball (Now with a scroll ring!) on my machine machine for the last 10 years.

    I sympathize with ya. Anyone who's had to deal with third party charges on their phone bill has been through hell... It's rediculous that they can disconnect your phone over charges someone else claims are valid, and they (phone co.) have 'no responsibility' to verify them.

    ... that sometimes it's beneficial to break contracts when your position isn't changing as originally thought. No one is expected to stay in a losing position.

    If The Planet felt, for *whatever* reason, they were on the losing side of this deal, and they are prepared to deal with the possible repricussions of the doing so, they can break the deal.

    In summary, to all the freedom-freaks: This has nothing to do with freedoms of any kind, except of course, the freedom for The Planet to act how they did. No government squashing of free speech, no freedom to be hosted wherever you please. Nope, nothing like that.
  8. my favorite line on What You'll Wish You'd Known · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The important thing is to get out there and do stuff. Instead of waiting to be taught, go out and learn. I wish I could have made the distinction years ago.

  9. Re:Speaking of ethics... on .net Domain Up For Grabs · · Score: 1

    I say from now on, people that complain about unintrusive sigs for things like this should be modded down for 6 months per offense, regardless of post content or merit. No shit, seems every /. story now has someone shooting down another's comment based on the free minimac/ipod/handjob link in their sig... Get over it and don't click.

    Now I can put the phone line to use, since I've moved my phone service to cable.
