"or 8,000 times more data than a human brain retains in a lifetime."
Since when did the human brain retain 125GB of data?
Anyone know where this comes from or did they just pull it out of their ass?
"well, no more DVD movies for you!"
Ha.
Well MS, no more money for you!
Really, what incentive is there to *achem* upgrade to Vista anyway?
95/98 over W3.1 I get (pain in the ass as it was)
ME over 98 ? no fsking way
NT over 98 ? not for home use tnx
2k over 98 I get (glad I did)
XP over 2k ? I can live without the eye candy
Vista over 2k ? take your Trusted Computing and DRM and put it where the sun don't shine thank you very much.
Until 64bit apps are the norm and force me to upgrade (like 32/16 with w2k) I can't see buying into this endless upgrade cycle.
I'm in the top 0.5 % and #39 in my Class with over 11k units mostly on a single machine.
If I can't transfer that because I forgot my original password and changed email addresses since then, well screw it. I'll fold proteins to keep my apt warm.
11) The president directs you the engineer to hire and train a new technician.
12) The president gives you the evil eye at the old technician's funeral.
13) The president hires an old buddy for "administration" duties that pays what you (used to) make.
14) The secretary has a stack of overdue invoice notices to open every day.
15) 22yro greenhorn engineers are hired at $20/hr to fulfill $55/hr contract engineering jobs.
16) The president is absolutely incapable of admitting his glaring, obvious mistakes in mgt and project scheduling despite the advice of more experienced designers and engineers.
17) The president insists on shipping a product even though it does not work reliably.
18) Due to ill advised and unnecessary shortcuts the product is failing prematurely.
19) Management berates, insults and openly intimidates everyone who questions their flawed decisions.
20) It just plain sucks to work there anymore and you can't wait to be fired.
I know, it's an oxymoron but if Sony wants to sell these socalled 'CD's' then they should be REQUIRED to label them as software. Any disc that installs drivers is NOT a music CD, it is a software CD. Just boycott Sony, they haven't made anything but crap since 1979 anyway.
But they don't want you to live a long life. Just work and pay taxes until you're 65, then die. That way they don't have to pay out Social Security benefits.
Jeebus on a pogo stick, get a grip. Either buy some nukes or chill the fuck out. If you're so damn upset just revoke all Chinese copies of Windows and hire an army to enforce it. Or please just shut THE FUCK UP.

Orwell and Hitler would be proud.
In some sort of crude sense, which no vulgarity, no humor, no overstatement can quite extinguish, the physicists have known sin; and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose.

In ten years of overclocking I've never seen CPU temps under mobo temps. Any links to data? Unless of course the CPU intake is being vented in from the outside, good idea.

I mean how many billions in advertising has the Simpsons made over the years?
Well whatever works I guess.
I always wondered if the animation was crafted to match the voices or vice versa, at least the article cleared that up.

Brads brother Mike also works at the MPAA.
Pretty funny when the secretary pages the building : "Has anyone seen Mike Hunt?"
Time Warner Cable in upstate NY was unable to connect to several sites. SETI and Newsfeeds notably on Wed.

How can it not be stealing ? The same way it is not murder. Get it asshole?

go chase 12yo girls and die in prison HH.
Hollywood lawyers be warned : you have no friends.
Period.

And more people were killed in Dresden than in Hiroshima.
What do you see that is the result of superstition? What do you see that is the result of science?
Eardrums move in and out. One dimension.
Silly cowards.
Crap with depth.
I found 1d radio broadcasts like Alan Shepard in the 60s more interesting than most of the ooze oozing out of my TV set today.
You can't hide a ton of shit in a one pound sack.

That's quite a thermodynamic feat, the CPU running cooler than the air around it.
