...school isn't about learning stuff, it's about making sure the rest of the world knows exactly how smart you are.
Best quote ever.
The problem I have now is finding time to study and make use of all the interests I have.
That's what I've found with medication treatment as well. It has changed my life.
On the one hand, I tend to agree with the people who think giving young people ADD medication tends to turn them into robots when they might have been more creative otherwise.
I look back and think that it was necessary to live untreated. The creativity and character building is key to being able to live happier later in life and also improve intelligence. Like you said, when you hit that window, is when you need to decide.
Then it sounds like you have nothing to worry about. Of course I find it hard to believe that people would download music instead of ripping it themselves...
You're being sarcastic? It's much less work to find a perfectly ripped album on the internet these days, then it is to dig up that old scratched disc, get the best audio ripping software to clean it up, and to encode and tag your files. Not to mention, research into encoding formats and quality settings. Why do all that when there's millions of others who already did all this work for you?
Of course, I'm not speaking for myself. I know all those things, and can do it with very minimal effort (I'm sure most of the slashdot community is the same), but I'm speaking for the one level above joe sixpack here.
And that's just talking about CDs. You really want to do the work of ripping some vinyl when some kiddie got credit for it on some site because he used his multi-thousand dollar record player and sound card to make a perfect clean copy?
I'm guessing the 20 minutes includes warm up time for the soldering iron. I didn't even have to crack the case on my Yaesu VX-5 to "MARS" it.
or you can just pop the cover in back of the battery and de-solder the two pins (the vx-5). General Receive in 1 minute!
It's possible he had it installed in Program Files. Bad things happen in Vista with stuff trying to write to Program Files with UAC enabled.
So f'in true! I can't stand this issue I have where on reboots some programs randomly revert back to their configuration of months ago.
Because, as an iPhone developer, I am acutely aware that 99% of the people jailbreaking phones do so in order to steal software.
um...no. Have you bothered to actually see how much awesome development is in the jailbreaking community? I don't even bother with appstore apps (pirating or buying) anymore, because there are just too many jailbreak apps to keep me busy.
I was thinking the same thing but lets face it, APRS is obsolete. Why use APRS when you have a full blown high-speed Internet connection supported by expensive radio towers, WiFi, etc. with huge coverage. Packet radio is friggin slow and the coverage sucks. Plus with the commercial restrictions you can't use it to do cool things like track your pizza as it's being delivered and stuff.
Because APRS doesn't need towers. With a mobile rig you can reach up to hamsats (I believe the ISS runs an APRS repeater as well)
