Only advice I can offer is to spread spectrum submit your resume. I applied for everything from NASA down to kitchen helper.
Some work is better than no work. I was unemployed for 3 months and it really sucked, but things tend to work out.
Hell, check out some of those remote data entry jobs. They send you some scanned forms and you enter them into a database for them. Shit work but hey, it pays (sometimes rather well) and gives you some income in the mean time.
This. I live in Japan. After working IT for around 20 years, I got "downsized". Took me 3 months of resume submission and interviewing 3 times a week to finally land a job. Not in the IT field of course. I'm working for a construction company now where my co-workers know less about computers than my wife (who doesn't know how to send email). Now It's manual labor in a field I've never worked in and I'm happy about it. Why? Making anything is better than making nothing.
For those that say they cannot find a job? Bullshit. Man up and take some menial labor job that you hate and use your off time to look for a "better" job. Talk about motivation, how about getting out of a job you hate?
Although, having 2 kids in college and 3 in elementary school is a pretty big motivator too...
I wanna play xwing vs tie fighter again... Imaging something like the eve graphics engine driving the visuals. Keep the original gameplay and physics and add new missions...
"we decided to add in some code to our test run to show what those fractions would add up to"
Test run code. Not production. We can run all transactions through a testing environment to make sure everything is working. We do this at least once before we let the system run the real batch.
I used to work at a place where we did credit card transactions with our customers every month. We would automatically pull the amount from their card. Catch is, we bill in yen but the customer's bank accounts are in USD. We commonly would pull the equivalent of around $15000 per month. On a whim, we decided to add in some code to our test run to show what those fractions would add up to since in USD you have $x.xx and yen has no decimal point so everything is rounded. Turns out that that $15000 would generate about $0.02 (two cents) every month since the rounding up and rounding down tend to cancel each other out. Hardly worth the effort. I would imagine that dealing with equivalent of millions of dollars of transactions per day might net you something, but otherwise it's not all it's cracked up to be.

If I write a web page, however much it sucks, that's exactly how it should be delivered.
If I see a bad website that takes 20 minutes to load, then I will never buy anything from that site or it's company. If they can't hire a decent web programmer, they don't deserve my money.
However, if you change the page to make it render faster, the ISP is lying FOR the shitty company and their shitty website by making it appear to be a well crafted site.
tl;dr: Leave the shit shitty. It'll put bad programmers out of business which we need.
What I want to know is why is the government the one that always gets these settlements? Why not refund it back to the consumers or use it to subsidize the next year of computers that they ship out?
I know it's a fine, but still, in the end, it's always the consumers that lose.
In order to fix this, or at least slow it down, the copyright holders should have to pay a fixed amount per IP to offset the cost of the request for the ISP. Let's see them request 150,000 IPs per day when it cost 100 Euros per IP.

Yo dawg! I heard you like CPUs... so we put a cpu in your cpu...
THIS. I ran a 4 node bbs back in the 386 days and it would have been impossible to do that under DOS without having multiple computers.
Each session got it's own COM port and I still had enough resources left over to play X-Wing while the BBS was running.

Time to trot out the signature quote again:

That should do it right there.

One would think ROT-13'd braille would be sufficient.
