Request: removal of personal information from your database.
I never gave your company permission to use any public record that
belongs to me in a profiteering method. Social Engineers have accessed
your database and have potentially compromised personal information
belonging to potentially every US citizen, including myself.
Reference:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6969799/.
I request that any information about myself, removed be removed from the choicepoint database. I am forwarding this email to
the offices of the DOJ, President Bush, Vice President cheney and John
Hostlettler to inform them of the request that I am making. Also ccing
to ombudsman@npr.org.
I am appalled that this corporation dares rob me of the basic right of
privacy and security that the constitution protects. I demand my
information be immediately removed, my file shredded and evidence of
such to be delivered to me.
My old boss, a computer "Guru" by his own statements ran a small computer shop where he did custom assemblies with pirated software and "new" refurbished oem hardware
One day he decided that he was going to build a Athlon 1.4ghz computer with a 135? (probably wasn't much bigger) power supply.
At the time I was working for him as a Cable modem installer because I wanted nothing to do with his customer service reputation, but I strictly told him that a 135 watt PS would NOT supply enough power for that pc.
In the end, every component on the PC had to be replaced due to his actions, he learned his lessons of the importance of power supplies and I won a $20 bet with his assistant
The moral? Never trust a bad power supply (or a idiot boss)
I call horseshit. I have been using windows xp well before it released publically, and I have NEVER had a virus on my pc. Spyware? Yes, but never a virus.
And what about my SO's PC woes? Well, after her Vaio was so violently debilitated, and after being told by various experts that it would require nothing short of a complete (and very expensive) Windows system debugging and OS reinstall
I say:
Reinstalling windows takes 60 minutes and from windows 98-present (highest home user edition is XP Media Center Edition) will prompt you and give good tips on the whole reinstallation process.
Furthermore, this system was a sony Vaio, and sony has very good reinstallation and imaging disks. So good in a fact, that if you had made a short free call to the manufacturer they would have told you to insert the disk and to follow the on-screen prompts.
-- Yes, I am a experienced x86 man, I am a PC diehard. But being that, I also know bollocks when I see them, and this particular section is. In a word, owning a PC, just like owning a Mac, just like owning a car, you need to be able to follow simple directions for simple maintenance.
Maybe I'm a flamer or a troll, but I don't like when facts are cast to the wayside for a biased opinion.
I'm sorry, and I really don't mean to sound like a troll here, but lets look at some quotes from your "fun" article.
Telka: Sexuality in ads will exist as long as you have uncreative minds clamoring away on the idea that their audience is entirely male
Well, while the majority of the market is male, I know a _lot_ of female gamers that have no issue with the gameplay and advertisement. People say GTA:SA is bad, yet my ex and my current girlfriend that both come over to my house to game on a nightly basis. And they think killing the hookers is a great idea.
Staci: The women in the industry are doing their best to expand the minds of the men in the industry and its having an impact.
I highly doubt no matter what the makeup of the tech team is that PR, advertising and R&D are all dominated by men. I'm sure there are plenty of very smart women out there that know what sells that are making these calls.
Trisha: Still, I don't think that you would have seen any woman playing video games 5 years ago.
Rubbish, 5 years ago me and my ex gamed every night. As did the many girls that came into the video store that I worked in part time in those days
Sarah: Ugh! my first thought is, "they're naked!!" My second is, "what does that even mean? I got implants? You can play me?"
Have you ever seen a trimspa commercial? This particular ad is obviously making fun of anna nicole smith. And she wasn't naked. And implants are part of the game.
Interesting possibility. Depending on how good this gets, what would stop a informed individual with a sky projector, pirated divx 40.0 encoded movie and shoutcast from displaying teh newest releases for everyone to see?
Harr harr, you troll. And if you're serious, you need a lesson in simple computing yourself, you don't store critical information on a PC without making backups, period.
I found this information on myself, I really wonder how many other applications these web sites can use your SSN for? Complete trackback with job history?
The Social Security Number 812-60-84622
is valid and was issued in Indiana.
This SSN is ACTIVE.
Would you like to learn more about this SSN?

It's scary what our "Secret number" system is capable of.
Just remember: Once you have the cards paid off and the debt subsided, save save save. That way, when times are hard you have cash on hand to deal with anything.
And congratulations, for thinking outside of the box =)

I'm not going to waste the time to list out your flawed theory by listing games, but trying to game on the mac SUCKS

Sir, I am offended. I am a double amputee, and it is very hard to press my thumb on gummie bears

Very true. Unless you have a Space Proxy
I like the idea.
That is too good
Who is the GNAA? Oh, wait...
I prefer to keep my legal backups on my hard drive, in images that alcohol 120% can mount.
They finally get a vacation, and hopefully unemployment. Unemployment for 99hrs/week = Working 0 hrs/week and drawing 10x better salary. I'd be happy.
You have given me my new rate plan, thanks!
Networking support was not available in windows 3.1, only in windows 3.11.

Viva america!
