They'll mess it up royally. And no, I'm not being racist or patriotic or any other thing you'll throw at me. And I'm not hoping anyone dies or anything like that. It's that China wants to make a big push into space for some reason. The US and the Soviet Union did that back in the 60s, and a whole lot of bad stuff happened to both countries. Why? Because we were in "The Space Race." Even Cracked.com did an article on the Soviet's hushed up failures. So let someone else test out the technology before we even try it.

I'm not really up with the current BS IP/copyright/etc laws, but if the porno guy came at you with what is basically a BS claim, wouldn't counter-suing him be a good option? May need to take out a loan, but since the article says it's established law that an IP address isn't enough for a suit, wouldn't that be something like a frivolous suit?

Please correct me if I'm incorrect.

1) I need to hold a phone to my ear while trying to do the stuff the support guy tells me to do.
2) Occasional (or frequent, depending on company) hard to understand accents.
3) I don't have the greatest of hearing to begin with.
4) The support person sometimes/oftentimes can't understand me (yes, could be my fault)
5) Typing leaves nothing to guess at, as opposed to trying to understand some garbled words.
6) If the person is leaving parts out of your question, just ask for clarification.
7) Relax. Don't give yourself a stroke.

I think I did the random number thing about 30 years ago when playing Dungeons and Dragons with dice.

"From now on, pigs shall be called Rainbow Unicorns."

“Do not meddle in the affairs of the Google, for it is not subtle and quick to anger.”

I'm offended and I've arrested myself!

First we (US media, etc.) say that we are falling behind other countries in education, then we turn around and say it's too hard, then we do No Child Left Behind, then we try to raise test scores by various means, and now we question if any learning if necessary.

Shouldn't the emphasis always be on raising standards?

I may have to incorporate that into my sig.

Good thing I don't do bad things.

To the coming of the MacTwits.

"Climate change to argue, politics that don't matter. And sometimes we through in something techy/sciency, too"

Is it that difficult?

OK, not really, but it's a fun thought to entertain.

And very few morals.
