There is another option. If they don't accept the $100 bill, that's ok. They must let you take the merchandise or service and make arrangements with you at your convenience to repay that debt. You offered them legal tender.
They can also get out of it by allowing you to pay cash at a certain location. Just not there. For example if you are at an apartment complex and you want to pay your $1500 months rent, you can do that at our office that's in another state.
I never offer them that option. I offer them the "I'll repay it later" option. They take the $100 bill.
Have you actually called the cops for that? I'll bet $100 you haven't.
Didn't call the cops, had him call his legal people. He took the $100 bill. Of course when you do that, they often call you the professor from then on. I carry $100s. Beats the hell out of 5 $20s. Wish they had $500 and $1000 again. Buy something for 20-50K or something, that's a lot of paper. So stupid. It's not impacting the drug trade, clearly. Only hurts law abiding citizens.
concludes that the E-cat is "a device giving heat energy compatible with nuclear transformations, but it operates at low energy and gives neither nuclear radioactive waste nor emits radiation. From basic general knowledge in nuclear physics this should not be possible. Nevertheless we have to relate to the fact that the experimental results from our test show heat production beyond chemical burning, and that the E-Cat fuel undergoes nuclear transformations.
Gee, could it be a standard exothermic chemical reaction? Of course it is. Move along, no scientific discovery to look at here. When you get a fusion reaction, there's a Hellovalota energy given off. Not impressed.
From whom? I was told many years ago by a retired agent who gave a talk at my high school's career day that their unofficial policy was to not hire anyone *under* the age of 30, because they wanted you to have several years of practical experience in some related field before they would consider you for a position.
I wish they would raise it to 60 or something. Then the could bring in senior IT type managers. Guys like me. I could also tell them to get off of my lawn.
Not a 1% thing. That's crap. They can get it just like anyone else. In fact, they're probably more likely if you think about it.
They're controlling this story because A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it (Kay - Tommy Lee Jones in Men in black). We all know it. Think about it. I had ideas here, however I removed them because someone may do it. This stuff is actually worse than antrax. Anthrax you have to have around 1300 spores before you immune system is ovecome. Hard to do. This stuff one guy could become a typhoid mary.
My Caddy has what many newer cars have for headlamps - leds. Damn things burn out the ballast, or lamp. Car isn't that old. My 2000 chevy's laps lasted for about 12 years. Even then the plastic was frosted over, the lamps still worked. Even if they didn't, less than $50 at any auto shop and about a minute to replace it. The caddy and the Beamer - what a PIA to get to! Expensive! Ballast for them are around $500 a pop. Headlamp assembly around $800, then you have to get it installed.
Ever look at them again? Fog Horn, Bugs, Jetsons, they all stand the test of time. Courage - sadly not so much. Three Stooges - for the most part not so much. Then there was outright crap.
Fog Horn - Boy, I Saaay Boy - boy's about as sharp as a bowling ball! Man, classic! I know people about as sharp as a bowling ball.
Then there's the manufacturing songs by an orchestra.
... So you set it to "(){:;};rm -rf/". Even before the helper script has had time to receive the data and do the necessary sanity check on it, bash will interpret the whole content (because it begins with () ) including the rm.
Wish people would try stuff before talking about it. If you try to run any binary you will get a segmentation violation. I know, I tried. Before you point out libraries paths and crap, that doesn't work either. We tried that as well. You're limited to shell stuff only. I.e. echo for example but not/usr/bin/echo. However if you know what you are doing echo is plenty powerful.
... reboots are years between, and in scheduled windows.
Care to publish the IP of your machine?
Of course don't do that, only a fool would do that if you're not rebooting to a new kernel more often.
Have you even looked at systemd? By your comments I don't think so. I'm getting a 3 second reboot with a VM. Yes you have to learn some new stuff. Big deal. I'm a guy that used to compile Unix from tape on a vax 11/750. Learn it, it's worth it.
Think so, eh? Don't read this then - http://www.sweetliberty.org/is... . I know a guy that was working for Dupont when they came up with the ozone bit. He's still amazed people are still duped by it. PT Barnum was right, sucker born every moment.
Do you know what we had before this country existed? Look it up. I think you'll easily agree we own land today. Clearly it isn't what it used to be.
I own a lot of land. I can sell it as well. Often do. Buy other land. No sweat. The big caveat is don't go around trying to harm others. No drugs, no religions that serve only you, other nastyness. No problems. Ironically my fear are the crazy lefties and their BS. Suddenly a building they don't like may become a target. Often for something that isn't even a problem - like too much di-hydrogen monoxide. I know, it kills a lot of people every year. However it's necessary for commerce. Funny example, however this happens.
BMI determines my BP. It's like clock work. Higher BMI, higher BP. Anytime I'm over 220, it goes up. Below 220 I'm in the normal range. If I eat something very heavily salty, of course it goes up. Don't eat a salt lick.
Come on guys, we're not helpless Windows type people. Stuff changes. Go with it. I'm old guard, as in I used to make my own filesystems from a prototype old. Today you just mk*fs. Partitions are easy, even X11 is automatic to the point people probably don't even know they're running X11.
I loved the old stuff. Made a lot of money with it. Old, dated. Like with aircraft, autos, etc, time moves on. Adapt or be left behind.
The new way it boots, there's no question it's better. Just learn the new way.
Clearly it didn't. Bash uses emacs commands by default, of course. Mode editors are so 1960s. If you're serious about computer science, learn emacs. Then you can use both. I use both. If it is something simple, I use vi. For anything else emacs. Once you learn emacs, then you'll wonder why someone didn't let you in on the secret before. So far I have one guy that still wouldn't admit Emacs was superior, of course he wouldn't even try it. He helped write vi.
So sure, vi won in the sense that it's almost always installed by default - small, fast. When I show people Emacs and what can do, they usually learn it.
Didn't care which one - SYSV or BSD back in the 1980s, pick one and all of us - use it! Didn't happen. That BS still rages on today when BSD was rescued out of oblivion by replacing the Apple OS with a modified version of it.
Gnome and KDE - again, pick one. Can't have that now can we? Let's fragment everything!
Now this crap. I go back to the mid 1980s with Unix. It built my house and has paid for everything I own. I'm happy to move to the new way. It's better. SYSV - nice knowing you. I'll put you in the back of my closet like I did with the Casette, 8 track, other stuff that had a good run. I'm sure I'll always remember you.
Not to say that the new way is a bed of roses. Getting better, however.

Used to be a boy scout project I remember from years ago. They found a place that had good optics. They knew because they worked for NASA at Goddard. Sent a few back. So they had the optics and we had to build a case to put them in. Plywood mostly. When it was done, man it's incredible. No, really. I've owned some Sears type telescopes. They're crap in comparison. When you are able to see through one of these babies - it's truly incredible. I'm talking one with about a 1 meter or so focal length. Galaxies oriented every which way and the colors and so many of them. Never felt so insignificant in my life. Then we found Saturn. Incredible. It really is worth I think we paid about $200 for the optics about 15 years or so ago. I'm sure that telescope is still around someplace. Wish I had it.

23 less than X less than 37.
Doesn't matter, I'm still well over a decade to old.
I wish they would raise it to 60 or something. Then the could bring in senior IT type managers. Guys like me. I could also tell them to get off of my lawn.
So basically the FBI is only hiring people over the age of 50?
No, they don't hire anyone over 35 last I knew. I found that out way after I turned 35.

Of course, that beats the 2000s idiot time wasting system. Responding to people on slashdot.
