it's good odds that she would have been pulled out anyway.
Nah, when people drown in the local pool they are left there. Got 17 bodies at varying levels of decomposition in the deep end, the filters should get all but the bones in a few years.
And how many people died in relation to the performance of those services paid for by that 6.5M?
Traffic accidents by commuters, manufacturing accidents with chemicals/molten metals or just heavy shit falling on people (and the deaths and losses of general quality of life granted by the pollution).
How about those basic economics? We were talking human lives, lets not get too distracted.
Why not just say all the guys here have "inferior equipment"? Seems you're not far from doing that.
And leaping there after someone points out that recording digital video is very close to what a Digital Video Recorder does (since you seem to be defending some difference there) is pretty juvenile.
Funnily enough you are cheering about your techinical understanding, in spite of the fact that if you had said "tivo-thingie" instead of "DVR" there wouldn't be any room for my you said "I don't have A, I have A!" statement.
This isn't about man versus woman, I'd be making the same argument if you were male. This isn't CuSeeMe, the text we bat around doesn't scream male or female. Think of it as one of those technical details you've mastered and try not to introduce sexually based insults into a conversation after preaching of sexual equality. I recognize the ground is relatively even, but by sabotaging the case you make after inventing a reason to persue it, you just aren't helping.
Indeed, the industry has proven time and time again. If us mean spirited consumers wolud just give them a chance to, they will gladly cut back on advertising.
I'm glad we've progressed as far as we have, I keep hearing about back in the day how advertising invaded everywhere all the time, the list of what ads effect is still mind boggling huge, but at least they've taken what few opportunities they've gotten to cut back.
I hear one day they'll have a pay TV service which will allow them to remove commercials altogether! I hope I live to see that day.
Linux users need some iconic way to know that they've really fsck'ed up the their computer.... We need something....like a dead penguin. Or maybe a slightly stunned penguin.
Or a sleeping penguin? Maybe one pining for the icebergs?
Heck, your PC probably does "janitorial services" like like antivirus scanning, indexing, disk-optimization, and other tasks when the CPU is relatively idle.
CPU is not a big issue for drive based processes like those.
Actually, I recall the 68000's connector was very male, and only connected successfully to a female socket.
I'm having trouble coming up with anything that isn't rigidly heterosexual in a computer. Except perhaps the gayness that Gates has built into Windows. But this is Slashdot, who didn't see that coming?
Config... Choosing what programs you want? Free programs? Terrible...
Write shell scripts? Must be some stupid RedHat thing.
Update RPMs? RED-HAT...
Partition drives? I thought we already installed, only a true supervillan would partition after installing!
Patching the kernel... I guess if you're running on cybergoats and fembots you'll need special drivers... Ideally you'd have modules figured out if you're doing a big rollout though.
Compiling, an option in Gentoo, otherwise download and go!
Version dependancies, thoes things that automatically whiz by when I choose what free software I want, so it all works?
... This guy is so evil, he probably stabs himself in the hand if he has nothing better to do...

Problem:
A private/public key pair would really make that tough.
People without eyepatches who insist on interoperability.
Until I can read/write RARs through a FOSS KIO slave I don't care to hear about it.
I'm not saying I like ZIP, I use alternatives generally, but RAR is a bad joke in my view.

I aimed my controller at a young kid and mashed my buttons at him violently.
Shutup and listen
Screw you.
I think timezones should be abolished too.
During a certain period of the year the blinking of the 12:00 should be reversed, so its off when it should be on and on when it should be off.
This is expected to waste huge amounts of energy to implement, which will be profitable to certain businesses who are owned by friends of mister bush.
I lean towards setting the clock half way to it's next leap and leaving it there.
This shifting back and forth schtick is inane at best.

Yeah, good episode, I really think this would be more of an X-Box device for some reason.
Or about 0.671 light-milliseconds...

I don't control a DVR, I don't even have one. I much prefer my capture card.
Capture card, eh? Whats it capture, video? I'm sure it doesn't do that digitally! And capture isn't another term for recording?
Maybe I hit sarcasm and my detectors are mal-tuned...
Yeah, its a bit over the top for instant popcorn purposes...

BACK OFF OR I'M GOING TO SET MY FEET ON FIRE!!!
Yeah, good point.
Heh, get with the times.
Amiga has had E since 1993. If you really want to go back and do D go ahead, but, wow, a bit late...
Heck, your PC probably does "janitorial services" like like antivirus scanning, indexing, disk-optimization, and other tasks when the CPU is relatively idle.
CPU is not a big issue for drive based processes like those.
Only concern I imagine is when those apps hit the drive (wear and tear on the one important piece of non-solid-state equipment a computer has).
:-)
Or if you have an unstable cooling system that extra heat pushes over the edge. The latter would be good to know about anyways.
Okay, I'm gathering up lots of unused CPU cycles. But if I were going to reuse a cycle, I'd probably want to reuse a cycle that did something...
Who wants to pay me for the past three years of my computer idle time?
Hey, pay for my idle time too, arcades aren't getting cheaper.
DNS is a network service just like HTTP or whatever else. If theres any reason, the smart masses can just redirect their DNS queries.
