What a coincidence. When I take this fantastically bad composition titles "Fgnvejnl Gb Urnira" and alter the notes in a certain pattern, I get Stairway To Heaven.
I have never fired an AK-47 but I have certainly heard of its merits. The M16 however is an awesome weapon. The sighting mechanism allows me to reliably hit a man size target from 500 yards away. As far as jamming, it rarely happens and they are easily cleared. I have had a sand fucked chamber and it still fired true. As long as you have your handy scrub brush and some CLP, there is no excuse for a jam unless your in the middle of the perfect sandstorm. Maybe I am partial, but if the apocalypse comes and I find a stash of AK's and a stash of M16's, I am grabbing all the M16's I can. I want one shot one kill not spray and pray.
First of all, punish people who break into closed networks not open ones. I have accidentally connected to an open network a time or two. Sorry, I meant to connect to the Linksys network, not the Linksys network. Secondly, if DLink and the like would default to a more secure configuration out of the box instead of pandering to the wanabe power users, this problem would be largely eliminated. The computer industry seems to want to make computers so easy anyone can do it. They can't. Take your car to a mechanic, take your clothes to a tailor, take your securely configured router that you can't figure out to me.
I could have one icon on the desktop that I click 50 times a day and that so called wizard will still tell me I have unused desktop icons. Even better, when Sally Secretary actually runs this fantastically annoying tool, she calls me ten minutes later to tell me Excel is gone.
I don't remember 2K bothering me quite as much as XP. Everytime I see that balloon telling me I have unused desktop icons I get mad. Eye candy is useless to me unless it enhances my work. Otherwise, give me TWM. That said, I am sitting down with a Vista Home Super Duper Bee's Knees Fucking Ultimate cd coupled with a Barnes and Noble style training session sometime this week. I am sure I am going to be mad.
How is this bad? This is natural. I did not expect gootube to be the end all for online video. I doubt google expected a monopoly position either. We are only seeing natural competition within this type of service.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who previously thought of a bar with an stereophonic interface to any song ever wanted to be played at 25 cents a pop. Cool Thing is that I am starting to see that. Now I can play Pink Floyd's Animals and even pay extra to que it up before the lamo who played something I could hear on the corporate airwaves. Data wants to be free but plunking a quarter into a machine for whatever I want to hear at bar is OK with me. The machine I saw even had a bidding mechanism where you could out pay the cokehead who wants to hear AC/DC ridiculous bad.
But another requirement of making the leap from genes to drugs is making the research public--a step that will make it difficult for researchers elsewhere to patent any of this raw genetic information. The only thing I hate worse than software patents are genetic patents. If any industries could use a Stallman it would be biotech and genetic.
I once heard this exact analogy and it really got me to think. I am a scientist at heart so I certainly believe in its merits. However, do we really expect science to explain everything? Is there a scientific method that provides proof for the meaning of life? To me, the chances of everything being as they are now by cosmic chance seems just as plausible as a God in heaven. So in the meantime I am currently undecided, a fact for which my Christian friends tell me I am undoubtedly going to hell for.
And damn the German legislature that says 16 year olds can have a beer. Those Chinese are even worse. I heard one story where a 5 year old Chinese kid was so drunk on whiskey, that he got kicked out of the bar after fighting and telling everyone to fuck off, then got into a head on collision with another innocent toddler just driving to the sandbox on his tricycle.
XML was designed for one thing, blind data interchange. That's it. Which is why if I could eat any programing language's pussy, it would be that XML slut. Hopefully PERL the sister would join in. I love those bitches.
XML still won't get the respect it deserves. One mass ritualistic suicide/orgy later in the googleplex, all google secrets are willed into the public domain thereby creating the biggest sexual open source squirt in history. In the year 2000.
Is that the first time one of my boys asks me if Santa is real, I will confirm his suspicion. If I play cute, and my boy goes on the playground saying "My dad says Santa is real!", I am doing neither of us a favor. I will also threaten him not to tell is little brother. Santa is easy, I imagine when they starting asking me the same questions I have about God.
XP's (and ME's) System Restore. This actually works on occasion, but only if the problem is minor. I disable system restore on every computer. In the corporate environment, I let backup strategy and servers do this work. I have never found system restore to work perfectly in a home environment. I agree it might fix a bad driver situation but I highly doubt it will fix the virus ridden. These are cumulative, each restore point is progressively more ridden than the last. This means system restore essentially useless for most home users.
When using any operating system, even a careful admin routinely running as administrator/root is stupid. I practice what I enforce. I run as a limited user in Windows and exercise my special privileges only when needed. I wish my Windows user account was as functional as my Linux user account. Anytime I can not easily deploy software because I refuse to have a building full of admins, I get mad. Anytime I waste 45 minutes activating trendy software I am angry. Somehow, even after 2 days of wanting to piss on cupsd.conf, I will take the Linux philosophy over Windows any day.

It is a cock sucking robot. It is a little whore. Sometimes it needs a good slap.
True. The ping of death will doom us all.

I've said it once and I will say it again. "If you don't love PERL times XML, you love Microsoft"!
I'm surprised that Novell wants to kill Microsoft. I thought they were friends. I am not surprised that all Novell did is use XML as it was intended?

I can't wait for beaming movies crossing my front yard. I hope the password is admin.
