Now that is funny! oh and of course we are! lol

I am an American Indian, what was that again?

Well having worked in a couple of libraries, after fines clear no records are kept. I can tell you a total of books you've checked out but there is no way to see what books they were. Yeah they an change this but as of today, nothing is there.

I've often wondered how "sucks" got to mean something bad.

Well the arguement goes like this, at least it did for motorcycle helmet laws. Sure if you choose not to wear one please don't, just sign a waiver you will be responsible for ALL your care in case of serious injury. I do not want to pay for your brain damage care because you CHOSE not to wear a helmet. Also we need to teach bicycle driver they are a vehicle, not a pedestrian, and do NOT have right of way like a pedestrian, at least in this state.

The only ones I found that worked well at all were 12 thousand dollars, they used bluetooth , phones, ipods were crystal clear, but so was the price, same amount I put down on the house I'm living in. So I still say huh a lot, lol

Boy isn't that the truth! I have never had a problem with HP in Linux or using Windows. that said I never have gotten the HP suite to work anywhere. Bloated, confusing, crashes, you name it. Their software is as bad as their printers are good.

Well maybe if Google gave an "opt out" button so the people in the mid-east would realize the vast majority of people in the US don't care to see this video and actually think it's disgusting just like the Virgin Mary made out of tampons. I never saw that either and just like this video I hope Karma catches up to the 'artists' .

Perfect, I'm reading the same thing I'm thinking on /. I need to see a doctor.

Been working in Education for the last decade and I can say give it up. I have never seen any filter work more than a day at best. Lightspeed whatever just doesn't last very long. Kids start with proxy, but quickly switched to stealing passwords. The school year is only a week old and I have already seen a fairly complete list of staff passwords and ever our sys admin password. Get a Federal approved filter and do the best you can, keeping the systems working will kill all the time you have believe me.

news flash... Governments lie, all governments all the time.. new around here?

Used to be part owner in a day care a few years ago. Disney sent us a letter about paying to show their movies at the day care. I sold the business after that so I am not sure where this went, I just laughed.

And privatization means the police can hire companies to do things the constitution won't let them, pesky little laws.

Agreed. Now for the tinfoil hat. We seem to have lost our will to explore space, it's not just money, people hardly care about space travel anymore. Reminds me of the Mule in Asimov the Foundation Series. Remember all the SF stories of Aliens denying us the right to space? Why send ships to stop us when just a few mental tweaks will take care of it? My only hope is breaking the heliosphere is a tripwire like the obelisk in 2001. I know I gotta turn off the TV. But Momma thats where the fun is.

Quiet computer? Well I bought a 4870, which just burned up, thank god. I got tired of leaving my computer on all night because I couldn't go through boot up without my computer sounding like a jet plane taking off and waking the whole house. At least I could control the fan in Windows for gaming but in Linux it just sat there at 5k rpm. Well at my old age I went back to school and gave up gaming, no time or money for a video card that costs as much as a console. BTW playing even WoW, or Rift at ultimate caused the card to run at 100c, scared me, probably explained the burned up board. So its win win I get to play with Linux again, and I have my day for me. No more ATI for me, second expensive card I bought from them and both didn't work out so well.
