Well, I for one enjoy Vanessa Carlton's songs and her talent, even if I felt the last album was one long diatribe from a 16 yo girl's diary about heartbreaks. Which she admits. My concern is more for the impression of Wicca being dark. Admittedly, it depends on your leanings within it, but it's not ...

I'd agree with the hacker vs. cracker comment, btw, but then yer showing your age in just how long you've been geekin'. Anyways. Cracking is illegal. There's reasons it's illegal. It *can* be used for good use. Killing the man who's mugging you is 'illegal' for murdering a person, but is considered ...

Hey, a topic I know something about. Wheee! Tippman '98's are the stock marker. If you hear a comparison of markers, and you're not discussing the $1000 models, it's going to be against the 98. It's a staple of the industry, for good reason. Excellent marker... ... however I love my Tornado. PG-1 it...

All excellent, thanks for the share.

I'v never been a real fan of the "laws of man", so the legal theft aspectz don't really bother me. I think file sharing iz great! I do, however, believe that the musicianz & record companies deserve something 4 their work. Suing a bunch o' peepz 4 tonz of $ 4 file sharing, tho, iz no solution... no...

I'm not blaiming Rob for being rich, I'm not saying they shouldn't be paid or anything, but they shouldn't bitch if they aren't getting MORE money (I'm thinking of Dre and Metallica those rat bastards) because we download some. I mean, its the same as making a mix tape for a friend, but Memorex isn...

This thread's getting some attention I see. Unfortunately for the majority of folks out there, I also fall into the 'it's not your right to steal that work' category. I however learned this one a while ago, when program theft was common on the older IBM's. Code was simple enough to crack that your s...

The resistor is between your power supply and the battery in the computer, however the power supply itself also has them (that little box). If you can power your laptop in any way through that cord, the cord should be fine. On that note, though, I'm going to bow out to div. Experience vs. book, expe...

Were you using the modem and/or have the phone line hooked up to the laptop during the storm? I've seen a few modems get blown out that way, part of the reason the 6-socket plugs with phone jacks got popular. I'd say at the least that either the phone jack is dead (should be able to hook a phone to ...

I personally always loved:

The greatest risk is never taking one.

Oh, talk about some evil images... "Brains... BRAINS... " "Wrong head, but keep trying."

Hrm, I didn't appear to make it either... wonder why.

ROFL.

Do not Burn. Rape /OR/ Pillage.

72 first try. I must needs work on my clicking superpowers.

Woo, I just purchased a 2001 Suzuki GS500. First bike I've ridden in about 8 years. Quite happy to be out in the sun on two wheels again. Wheee!

I'll go ridin' with ya... if ya come out to the desert.

My god... we've gone plaid.

Do you think it's okay to proposition someone the first time you meet? Which do you prefer, subtlety and innuendo or direct aggressiveness? What "tactics" will turn you immediately away? Is flirting with someone who's in a relationship already okay? At what point does it cease to be flirting and be...

Hopefully my login doesn't get dumped again as well. Was starting to wonder who I had p'd off, since I don't typically post much...

Btw, this post is also to just make sure the board remembers I exist and doesn't think I've got 0 posts...
