Bless their pointy little heads.

And here I was, all this time, thinking that it was a petite hog leg!

I liked my prior workplace, where I had a standard cubicle (one with a lot of space though, not one of these "compressed" ones), surrounded by other cubicles with my teammates. I had some privacy, I didn't have people walking right up behind me like I do now, and when conversations did happen, the high cubicle walls kept the conversation from being too distracting (and kept me from having direct sight of all the people standing around), while still allowing me to hear if it was something I wanted to participate in.

5? You think a 5 year old even gives a shit about a first person shooter? Hell, kids at 5 don't even have an interest about that. Maybe they have interest in wow, or some mmo, or something fantasy, maybe even a fighting game, but FPS are typically not something that people at 5 are interested *in*. If I found my kid playing mortal kombat at 5 successfully, I'd be damn impressed. Again, that's not a FPS. Nor do they have 50 dollars to spend on a game, unless they stole your credit card and in which case you have another lesson altogether. Nor do they have the attention span to even play such a FPS.

If the kid was 9-16, that's the range you start dealing with these kinds of things. But at 5? No.

Taken out of context, that seems to be quite an insightful thing for a general to say...

No one ever expects the Spanish Inquisition.

Ok, its late. But someone had to say it.

Should you really be telling everyone to accept that morals are relative. They may be relative for you but not to them. ;-)

He didn't TRY to contact the owner, he DID contact the owner. Apple refused to arrange for him to return the phone. Corporate personhood sucks sometimes.

Really?

Maybe you should go read the warrant, they basically said "you can take anything from his house that is electronic" including mice and including taking any passwords he has on his PC. Mice have evidence?

I'm quite sure that last one there is a first amendment violation. Any lawyers care to comment? I smell a mistrial where he won't get his stuff back for 5 years including all his cellphones which they took(at which point it'll be useless). gotta love the "hold his stuff indefinitely while you copy every hard drive".
