  1. Remotes on The Do-It-All Remote? · · Score: 1

    Unless every piece of your system comes from the same company, then you are going to have to use more than one remote. How often do you really change some settings. I can turn on all of my components with one remote, but that had more to do with which piece plugged into who. Example: the TV into the cable box into the VCR on and on and on.

  4. Eyes on Laser Vision Correction? · · Score: 1

    A friend of mine had it done. When he drives at night he can see lines of light from where the cuts were made. Another surgery may or may not help.

  5. IDG on IDG and 'Trademark Dilution' For Dummies · · Score: 1

    IDG provides the company I work for with a lot of books. It says in the book that these are the registered trademarks: The ...For Dummies logo, and For Dummies and ...For Dummies are the registered trademarks and can not be used without their permission.

    Pepsi makes me sick to my stomach.

  7. Coca-Cola on Coca Cola Supply and Demand · · Score: 1

    I work next door to the Pepsi headquarters. I'm sure they have the same technology. They just aren't stupid enough to let the public know.

    Either you never win anything or you grew up in a large family, because that is just childish.

  9. Ama-Sucks-Zon.com on Amazon Sues B&N over Software Patent · · Score: 1

    Does anybody remember when Amazon was being sued by WalMart because Amazon hired away quite a few of WalMart's key computer personnel? WalMart got screwed. Does anybody remember a little while ago that Barnes and Noble tried to buy Ingram publishers thus having control over the prices they could charge to their competitors. The government was thinking that day and the buyout never happened. B&N is certainly not the "little bookstore on the corner" that they are trying to get us to believe they are. I do believe B&N charges one price at the store and another at their website. Please don't feel sorry for B&N because the are a huge huge corporation run by greedy men and women just like Amazon.

  15. Gambling Debt on Woman Avoids $70,000 Online Gambling Debt · · Score: 1

    I win a lot more than I lose when gambling online. I just want to thank that irresponsible, overindulgent, want to be scammer, that has absolutely no willpower or intelligence, for giving the government a VERY VERY good reason to make online gambling illegal. THANKS STUPID BITCH!

  16. House Burned Up on Hemos is Homeless · · Score: 1

    I feel for you. My house burned down and the only possessions that survived were the shorts and t-shirt that I was wearing. What sucks the most is all the stuff you can't replace, let alone put a dollar amount on. Hopefully your insurance agent is as good as mine. He helped make the pain go away with a check that blew my mind.

  17. women in the open source/free software communities on Women in the Open Source/Free Software Communities? · · Score: 1

    Today I received a learning Linux book called: Easy Linux: See It Done, Do It Yourself! The author is a woman named Lisa Lee. So woman are out there, just a little harder to find. And isn't it the rarer gem that is more precious and valuable?

  18. employer's stealth spy software on Stealth Software Used To Spy On Employees · · Score: 1

    Haven't you already figured out about a dozen of other people's passwords? You might still be logged at the same machine, but not the same user.

  19. Internet taxes on Ask Slashdot: e-Commerce, Taxes & Private Transactions. · · Score: 1

    Current state sales tax codes will have to be abided by, but no new taxes will be created because the government and companies contracted to do government work DO NOT have to pay sales tax, and internet taxes could compromise that luxury. Especially if anyone wants to be reelected. Just make sure you vote!

  20. Re:taxes on Ask Slashdot: Employees or Contractors? · · Score: 1

    When I have been a contracted employee I have always signed an agreement with all aspects of the job covered and have an attorney look it over. I do not sign one unless I am getting what I want. If the company wants to set all the rules for your contract, go away , far away. A contracted employee should always get paid better than employees, because their employees can't do the job. Do not let them push you around especially with this incredible job market. Take advantage of being a contractor by wanting high salary (so you can afford benefits) and no changes to your job. You will then become an employee. A company doesn't really pay that much in taxes, disability, etc. as they tell us they do.
