Find a job you want. Work out which skills you have that would help you in that job and make you a better candidate than the competition. Write up those skills.
The fact that you have diverse skillsets is a strength, but you still write your resume the same way as someone with a linear job progression. Highlight the skills, activities and experiences that will add value to your potential employer.
Fuck 'real work'. If you want to wall off part of your content, go ahead. Don't fuck over my standards to do so.
The internet is worldwide because it's open. People can use it. I want to defend this.
If that means I can't access commercially sold films via the web then that's cool. I can already access them over the internet via my TV anyway. Oddly enough the lack of DRM in web standards hasn't prevented this at all.
Am confused. Doesn't this mean that youtube/dailymotion/tumblr and many other top sites would have to be put on the porn filter by default?
Absolutely. Use their rules against them.
Hell, google.com will be gone; Google Image Search is almost impossible to keep free from nakedness. I'm sure we can get Yahoo, Bing and Wolfram Alpha added to the list too.
I thought telegrams were transmitted using morse code. That's pretty digital. Trinary bits rather than binary but digital nonetheless.
The analogue technology superceded telegrams because it could do voice; telephones are only digital again because computers can encode/decode the digital signals a fuck of a lot quicker than a telegram operator.
In court, Gearbox will have an easy victory (there have been a number of cases like this recently, and all have been lost by the incompetent idiots attempting to extort cash).
You must know a lot more about the contract than I do. If the terms dictate that royalties have to be paid, and that Apogee have the right to audit to determine appropriate royalty payments, then they're probably going to win.
It's extortion, it's contractual obligations.
The game being shite is irrelevant, it's the contract terms and numbers sold that matter.
It's still very crude and entirely useless but academics have had success in creating images depicting what someone's thinking of.
So give it another decade, it's not impossible that you will be able to tell what someone's thinking.
Whether it's ever possible at a mass population (rather than inserting someone into a scanner) is more difficult. I'd guess not, but I have no scientific basis for that.
On a home PC the extra power draw isn't a massive issue on cost grounds. Even at peak load full time the fx-8350 is going to cost.. hmm, actually anything from $20-50 more than the i5-3450. But in real usage, fuck all.
The issue is the heat involved. Around 50% extra heat means extra cooling, better airflow and that invariably means more noise.
For home use, the Intel option is quieter. Daft but makes a difference.
Aspergers doesn't stop you doing shit. Go dancing. Trust me, partner dancing is fucking perfect for people with Aspergers. Just have a shower, spray on something that smells nice and enjoy the nice structured controlled limited social engagement.
I'm curious about the ability he had to do this. The Prime Minister in the UK could push a bill through parliament cancelling the BBC's charter and/or its funding, but couldn't actually shut it down. If he sent police in to clear the building then the police would be acting illegally and I'd expect them to refuse.
So it's interesting that the Greek PM didn't face such barriers.
See my answer to AC for more details but the BBC news has repeatedly been shown to be biased.
The BBC are consistently biased, but that bias swings in every direction.
Overall there's inevitably going to be an element of bias, but on the whole I think they cover most issues from most angles and give a lot of airtime to very conflicting viewpoints.
I hate paying the licence fee but I'd rather keep the BBC completely independent of commercial necessity - sadly they're not completely independent, but by not having to compete with the other commercial channels they've kept the average quality of UK TV very high.
Exactly. The pity and mercy from Batty to a mere human is far more powerful than to a fellow replicant - whether Batty knee or not. That single act of kindness (and associated poetry) took the film from great to near perfection
I think that's unfair. There are some excellent actors and actresses out there; it's whether the script, direction, set and music can frame their performance sufficiently.
Shit, even playing Ford's Deckard, there are a number of actors more than capable, let alone bringing to life a whole new character.
My interpretation is that no, this doesn't confirm anything. Deckard may just told him he had this weird fucked up unicorn dream. Or Gaff may have a habit of making unicorns and that's why Deckard dreams of them.
Or maybe Deckard's a replicant. I just don't want him to be.
Yeah. Get the keyboard dock for it - even if you dont want the keyboard, it's got a spare battery and additional connectivity ports in it, including USB host.

Nonetheless, using recordings of private intimate calls as a source of entertainment should be a disciplinary offence.

This merely proves that people are willing to pay for reasonably priced content and DRM is utterly fucking irrelevant.
I just type £ and accept that Slashdot's code is going to fuck up its representation.

I like the commentary tracks.
That's right. Proud conquerors of the vastest empire the world has ever seen - and then we gave it back.
We're that good.
The racing industry can change all four tyres on a car in under three seconds.
A 45 second recharge isn't impressing me.

Sorry, which gender is someone with XXY chromosones? How is someone born with both sets of genitalia suffering from dementia?
Sorry that the world doesn't fit into your limited binary gender divide, so lets skip political correctness and call you the idiot you clearly are.

I know a lot of very senior managers, including c-level execs, that don't do it "for the money".
The money's good, and they like it, and they don't turn it down, but most people do actually enjoy their work.

Work doesn't make me feel good about myself. Being out of work makes me feel relaxed and happy.
I try and hit a sensible balance between happiness and income, but given financial independence I'd stop working as quickly as possible.

trying to do a sequel/derivative of an awesome film like "Blade Runner" seems like a sure letdown.
On the other hand the game, a derivative work, rocked:

However I really don't want a sequel, unless it absolutely retains the moral ambiguity, grittiness and atmosphere of the original.
Not the chief. Gaff.
My interpretation is that no, this doesn't confirm anything. Deckard may just told him he had this weird fucked up unicorn dream. Or Gaff may have a habit of making unicorns and that's why Deckard dreams of them.
