Narrator: A new car built by my company leaves somewhere traveling at 60 mph. The rear differential locks up. The car crashes and burns with everyone trapped inside. Now, should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don't do one.

Business woman on plane: Which car company do you work for?
That's how I do it, except I create a trainer folder and an innocent-trainer folder.
If spam falls into your in box, throw it in the trainer folder. If an innocent email falls into your spam folder, throw it into the trainer folder.
It's always good to feed dspam innocent email. That's what the innocent-trainer folder is for. I feed it about a hundred or so of my innocent email into the innocent-trainer folder.
For the first hundred or so emails, dspam may misplace email, but after its training session, I had zero false positives. Here's my dspam_stats:
TS Total Spam: 10103 TI Total Innocent: 1063 SM Spam Misclassified: 807 IM Innocent Misclassified: 23 SC Spam Corpusfed: 285 IC Innocent Corpusfed: 191 TL Training Left: 1223
It says I still have over 1200 to go for training. Since my training is not complete, I still get the occasional spam in my in box, but as for false positives, I have not received any since the beginning of training.
Re:Why I dislike Halo (and all modern console game

Halo 2 Goes Gold

· Score: 1
Just give me a keyboard for the X-Box and I would be all set.
I hear ya! I am actually waiting for this. I don't know if it supports Halo2, so I am going to wait around until Halo2 is released.
I also don't know how much lag there will be for the controller mapping. I can't really tell that much from the video.
What about having the asteroid so large that upon impact the force puts so much pressure on the surface that molten lava begins spewing out of the earth's surface!
Isn't warranty on SCSI drives at 5 years already? Now maybe if they upped it to 10 years or 7 years, that could be more of an incentive to do SCSI instead of IDE when it comes to reliability/warranty-length.
Doom was not my first PC game nor was it the first game I played. The first PC game I played was Wolfenstein 3D. As cool as it was, I couldn't play it for that long because it gave me motion sickness.
However, I don't doubt you saying that Doom is an integral part of gaming history. Currently, I'm playing the following FPS games...
Enemy Territory
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
Call of Duty
All the various Medal of Honor releases
I also still play Rainbow Six among other FPS that probably had its roots close to Doom, a Doom-like engine, or an evolved engine from ID via Quake (1, 2, 3). Now that I think about it. As important Doom is to the history of gaming... ID's influences will be etched in stone.:)
Learn to play a musical instrument. Seriously. Most people I know who are in IT and play tend to have wrists in perfect shape. Both guitar and using a PC tend to cause RSI, but switching between both seems to counteract the effect.
Are you sure? Maybe I'm doing this all wrong. I'm probably at my computer a bit more than playing my guitar, but somehow my wrist still hurt. My right wrist is bugging me because of the mouse, and my left wrist is irritating me because of the guitar.
Right now I have a left wrist brace because of the guitar. I'm blaming this problem on myself though. I never took any formal guitar lessons. I don't know if my form is correct for playing. I have a friend who played the guitar years longer than I have, and he has no problems with his wrist.
Now I'm trying to take five minute breaks to relax my eyes and hands every hour or so. Maybe it should be fifteen minutes. But when you're in the zone coding, you know it's hard to stop:)
I've noticed that, too. I live in Los Angeles and my job took me all over the greater southern California and even northern California.
If there's traffic, I always stayed in the righter lanes. Either in the number 3 or 4 lane on a four lane highway (I believe you count lanes where lane 1 is on the far left).
Anyway, I notice two things during rush hour traffic. It seems majority of the drivers are rushing (obviously). They think the left lane is the fastest of all the lanes. Therefore, these drivers want to merge onto the left lane. This is somewhat true as long as everyone in the left lane is driving a bit faster than speed limit. However, when traffic slows down, the left lane seems to come to a halt first. (I'm guessing there are more cars in that lane compared to any other lane.)
Then the number two lane slows down... then your other lanes. No one wants to drive on the right lanes because they're slow. Both on and off ramps are on the right lane. Therefore, traffic can increase and decrease in the right lane. There are also those huge semi-trucks in the right lanes. Majority of the drivers don't want to be stuck behind those big trucks.
But I noticed one thing about those big rigs. They don't like stopping. (Maybe because it's a pain to upshift through all those gears from a stop?) So when I see traffic slowing down, I merge into the right lanes and follow the trucks. Sure, they are slow. But it's hardly stop and go compared to the lefter lanes.
That's my technique when it comes to highway driving in California:)
Your city may differ. As for surface streets: forget it. There's no point rushing through the city or finding shortcuts. Just leave ten minutes earlier to get to your destination on time.
Just a quick question. If you need machines for computationally-intensive tasks, wouldn't you want ECC memory? Or does it depend on the magnitude of your computationaly-intensive task? I'm curious in your case. Thanks.:)
Thanks for the link. That was a nice read. What I'm curious is if anyone has that issue of Newsweek mentioned at the end of that article...
Event Marketing Redux: Apple spent more than $2.5 million to buy all 40 pages of advertising in a special 1984 election issue of Newsweek magazine. At the time, John Sculley remarked, "It's unclear whether Apple has an advertising insert in Newsweek or whether Newsweek has an insert in an Apple brochure."
I was too young at the time to even remember what happened that year... (I'm only 23.)
Since you mentioned it... ob. Futurama reference:)
Fry: "Hey, as long as you don't make me smell Uranus." *laughs* Leela: "I don't get it." Professor: "I'm sorry, Fry, but astronomers renamed Uranus in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all."

The AE-1 is a great camera. I still have and use mine. I've been looking for another 35mm manual body though. Since I already built my Nikon kit with a line of Nikkor lenses, I was thinking about the FM3a.
To give some props for the AE-1, a couple dozen or so of these cameras were used for the first Matrix in help with the bullet time.
I wish I knew how they rigged that up (timers, etc):)
My roommate is doing a switch from Sprint to T-Mobile and it hasn't happened yet. He's been waiting for well over a week now.
Two nights ago, he was on hold for well over two hours. I want to do a switch from AT&T to Sprint (or anyone else than AT&T since their service is horrible in my area), but the people my roommate talked to said to wait sometime next year (early January) to get the "bugs" out in this system.
Article is/. but one thing worthy of note is that the copy protection on Gamecube also involves spinning the CD the wrong way round. To make a Linux distro you are going to need a very special CD burner
I thought it spun normally, but instead the laser reads from outside to inside and not inside to outside?
I already bought a Pioneer 105... and I saw the A06/106 since it does both. But even if I get a +/-R[W]... what media would I use to burn? + or -?
I don't like using RW, so I archive using write-once anyway. My problem comes with which format will win out in terms of readability in decades to come.
Since I'm guessing modern DVD drives nowadays will read +R and -R, I don't need to worry about whether or not that DVD player 20 years from now can read my +R or -R burn.
So is this +/-R still an issue? I wouldn't think so.
But what about +/-RW? I'm not too familiar with +/-RW.

Thanks, I'll check that out. That's basically what I need. If a new window needs to be open, just have it open in a tab.

Since that's for Opteron and not Athlon64, wouldn't this be Socket 940?

Still, I want one of these
I hope nVidia releases an update to the nForce chipset so it can support PCIe. I mean, they're already releasing PCIe video cards.
