 | We have a new president; watching Bush's helicopter receded into the horizon and listening to BHO calmly work his way past CJ Robert's fumble of the oath of office then his acceptance speech; I held my breath as he kept getting out of the potus-mobile to walk through the crowd. … |
 | I can't really believe that he is serious but then I looked around on his site and don't know what to think.  |
| | I remember a while back there was some sort of difficulty where posters would get a message that said "This forum requires that you wait 15 seconds between posts; please try again in 1 seconds" -- I got it again. Does not happen often - just sayin'....  |

| | Re: Global Warming! [QUOTE=khess;746772]I have kind of a different take on the concept of global warming. I believe that, yes, there is global climate change but not global warming. There is no global temperature. Temperatures fluctuate everywhere on the earth and there are periodic warming and cooling trends. Climate change is a different …  |

 | Oh damn yes! Learned COBOL and BASIC as a youth and have never been the same. I have honestly tried to learn other languages but I was ruined. I was on programming teams that were both mixed and all men - the mixed teams worked best because they were complementary. … |
| | The US Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX) mandates what is effectively a systems engineering solution to the problem of how to control theft from the inside. Reliability is achieved not by human oversight alone, but by a set of information and control systems that ensures information quality and management accountability. … |
 | Gasoline pricing has so many variables that I am surprised that it tracks with crude so closely. The whole chain from well to pump is fraught with so many perils and 'Murphy' points it is unbelievable. The Madness of Crowds is pretty important - generally, there is enough gas available … |

| | He knew he was being investigated! Arizona still has the record for most governors finishing their terms in jail but IL could catch up soon. I wonder what New Jersey thinks of all this? |
| | Someone just pointed me to this [URL="http://amog.com/tech/gaming/oldschool-videogames/"]sit[/URL]e for old 80s video games - I mean this is [B]Old School[/B] in all caps! They even offer DigDug - I sold a book I was reading just so I could get a couple more quarters to play (I never did get to …  |

 | Interesting ethical question! I think it would be okay to ask if he knows how YOU can track back but, unless the offensive e-mailer actually does something that brings him into your uncle's attention officially, I would really be not ask your uncle to do something unethical (possibly even illegal). |
| | Well, you could incorporate yourself as a bank holding company and apply for some TARP money - go for a little extra to cover a couple years power. |
| | My favorite series is the HalfLife series. Right now (since I am spending most of my time on a lap-top) I am playing turn-based games, currently Jagged Alliance 2. I like it but I think I am going to get FalOut3 - then all will be lost. |
 | I would like any of these - I would prefer the full scale but the [URL="http://www.puzzleworld.org/puzzleworld/toc.asp?t=_des/mb001.htm&m=des/mb000.htm"]mini pieces[/URL] would do. I saw this guy's stuff in Scientific American about 30 years ago (when I subscribed). The really amazing thing is that these sculptures disassemble and can be re-assembled as something different …  |
| | [quote=EnderX;390543]Prequel doesn't automatically imply backstory. I can see where you're coming from; my point was simply that The Hobbit served to lay out vast amounts of information about the world where the series took place, moreso than a normal book would. I apologize if I did not make this clear … |
| | I think this [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghz4_kikLkE"]song[/URL] better represents our country. It brings tears to my eyes and a lump to my throat. I am an atheist (surprise,surprise) and love my country for what it is, not for what theists think it is and yet, I love this song. Then there is [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlbMFRK9I9s"]Phil … |
| | My first time online was connecting to a CRAY supercomputer located in CO. I was working for NOAA (1984-87) and managed to find a game of trek (I knew the geeks had one on it - it just took a lot of snooping to find it). It was funnier than … |
 | Re: BitTorrent Bittorrent is a free P2P file-sharing protocol ([URL="http://www.bittorrent.com/"]BitTorrent[/URL]) - it is thought that it is responsible for a significant amount of traffic on the web.

I did find some [URL="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7771628.stm"]history[/URL] on the subject of police/youth conflicts. I am unable to form an opinion on this particular situation but agree … |

| | Re: screeching sound it sounds like you are describing modem/fax training sounds - does it sound to you like a modem training? |
| | Re: "Dodgy" Advert A similar thing happened to another site where I hang out ([URL="http://www.schlockmercenary.com/"]Schlock Mercenary[/URL]). He runs a really fun, science-based web comic (and just happens to be Morman); he was really ticked. A filter failed somewhere.  |

| | He writes deeper [URL="http://www.fourmilab.ch/documents/digital-imprimatur/"]stuff[/URL]; I dug around on his differing sites and like what I found. I found his ideas intriguing - and when translated into cyberpunk ideas, I can visualize the cyber-structures with the zaibatsu living on top, controlling WWW3+ and razor-girls/boys populating the alleys and hidden byway of … |
| | It is interesting! Similar things happen all over Europe - entire apartment buildings are taken over by squatters. It is what happens in an ownership society - no one is using the buildings but the owners do not want anyone using them. There is always going to be conflict between … |
