Same thing here in Seattle. We even had classes on how to use IE. Thats pretty bad. Every two years or so the teachers all got new computers (iMacs) and none of them know how to use them except for grading. And you do not need the lastest imac for grading. There was one teacher (ex-microsoft employee) who realized how bad the tech was being used there and started a c++ class.
"I get my news from the web"...yes and thats why your on slashdot... Actually im going to agree with your young white male theory. Ive grown to hate tv. I avoid it as much as possible. Many of my friends were tv junkies 'till around the end of high school when they realized how dumb it is. We have all been happier, creativer and productiver without it. I still like some tv shows but it's not worth it to watch them on tv (bittorrent or rent/buy dvds).
"lets see who'll get voted off the island next!" sounds like our presidental races.. expect there is only two contestants.
"you'll love this new mccdonalds deal"
rock and roll mcdonalds.
Its like when your adding a bunch of simple numbers then you do it again and get a totaly different answer. People make mistakes. So do computers but their mistakes are unbias. Rossi is one of three rep. i voted for. WA is majority dem so the fact that it was a tie tells you how well liked he is(for a conservative) around here.
In 9th grade a friend I discovered that we could open up the chooser (macs) on any computer in the school, click on a teachers name, put in their password (super easy guesses... last names in most cases) and have full access to all their files. We read both the school and district rules and found that as long as we didnt change anything we were safe. So during class we would browse that teachers files while they were looking. It was pretty funny considering most of our teachers were pretty cool.
I can second this as a mormon. I will say, however, that Utah has lots of mormons and traditaional mormon values (Not actually church related things like old wives tales and super-conservitive values. The church is actually very liberal in ideology) are prevolent. The problem is that this mentality gets into the state gov.(democracy). But not everyone their is mormon and all it does is make people mad and point fingers and give them negative views towards latter day saints. If absolutly everyone there was a member then great, but they arent. Its really interesting to go down there and see how alot of teens rebel. It is quite entertaining. I personaly, being from seattle, cant stand being there for more than a week or so to visit family and go skiing. Too much meat and jello.

PSP And DS Duke It Out

· Score: 2, Informative
Ive had a DS since xmas and I havnt been able to play it much. Ive done a little bit of mario 64 but thats it. there are no games out yet. sprung isnt my idea of a game. Right now its just a $150 alarm clock. I'm still optimistic though. wheres my pokemon puzzle league
Why is no one mentioning kde and scalable vector graphics. That means any size. Also the crystal icon set blows everything else away as far as looks go.
or if you are poor... www.cajun.nu (thats Car Audio Jukebox Implemented Under li-Unix). i made a nice inefficent 40gb mp3 for my car from random junk parts laying around. I love it. Its a perfect compliment to my '95 dodge caravan.
Personaly i find games aimed at the older audience tend to be enjoyed the most by 12 to 14 year olds. GTA and the like dont apeal to me (20). I prefer games like mario and other cute type games. The games are just more fun. Am also a big fan of puzzle games. That one thing that nintendo has do to piss me off is scraping their panel de pon for GC. Most games made today no matter what the age group are kind of lacking gameplay wise. I think nintendo knows this and thats why they want to shift from graphics. the polygon monsters in Super Smash arent that important.
Actually clothes lines are great. If you want nice fresh clothes try it. None of frabic softener for me. The only problem is here in seattle it can be done for about 4 months of the year before it turns into a rinse line.
I agree with you here. Im no expert but that energy will be produced whether or not we use it. Keeping engery levels low or constant may prevent building of dams... etc and lead to wind/solar but turning off a light bulb doesnt make you an environment saver. Longer lasting lights for example are a great idea. This is because of a cut down on waste. This is like when people go around saying "we can make hydrogen cars now! Out law combustion engines today!" (over statement). Think about all the waste that would come form trashing the millions of cars. Note that this is coming from a vegan and not an SUV owner.
Alot of what they have is beta. geeks understand when something beta doesnt work right. Also if they were to publicize themselves i think people would turn away from them (like yahoo etc). Theyre worth billions all off of word-of-mouth. I really dontthink they need to advertise.
nope. I used to work there. Now I dont eat ice cream anymore. Or dairy for that matter. You get sick fom being covered in lactose and refined sugars all day. Now i just puree fruit and freeze it. mmm

Forget NPR. here in the land of Rossi we have KEXP 90.3 the worlds only radio station that doesnt suck.

Utah is pretty much 100% conservative. As long as he keeps running he'll win. Even the liberals in utah are fairly conservative.

To bad there isnt a full blown open source alternative. Im getting tired of flash player not working (right) in my firefox.

They're annoying during the day time too. Honestly i'd rather listen a radio then chimes and i really hate the radio.
