Everyone gets out what they put in to their life Welfare queens are a myth last time I checked You can take it easy as you like, or fill it full of strife But what keeps me from being a bum: a little self-respect

Learning a trade in America is completely overrated, Working hard, getting dirty, and only minimally compensated. Entertaining, the arts, getting your 15 minutes of fame, Bieber fever is where its at, not the 'fixing Ducatis' game.

Hooked on Phonics isn't alone in it's fault Other bastardizations of English need to be put to a halt, It's all "D-o-double jizzle, Fo' shizzle I-Pizzle" The only word that should end with 'izzle' is sizzle- tits.

Switching to haiku? No rhyming, hardly clever Asian invention.

This warning message I also doth receive, Granting rep I was unable to achieve, Though earned, it will be left forsaken, Until Pauly ruins rep once again.

Halloween was how many weeks ago? Two? Oh God, oh God...uhh, People can survive two weeks in the trunk of a car right? Yea, sure. BRB.

Theoretically, but that's a personal decision whether you trust the cloud or not. For me, I like web-email and web services in general because it's peoples JOBS to ensure data protection, integrity, security, etc. They can do that a lot better than I can with the equipment I'm willing to buy at home. If a hacker gains access to my data, it's likely because they got me to install a key logger or a trojan on the machine I use to access the data rather than hacking the web servers themselves. Also, if my local machine crashes, I don't lose anything. All my e-mail and contacts are in the cloud that I can pull down whenever I need to. I'm statically banking on my POS computer failing before some multi-million dollar data center owned by Google or Yahoo! Considering companies spend A LOT of money and resources on keeping these services alive for people because they generate revenue from it -- I'm willing to make the tradeoff of some of my privacy to have the backup and security of a cloud system. Now, if you're trading Nuclear secrets or kiddie porn, probably not a good idea to put anything on the cloud.

You're missing the full story. http://www.snopes.com/rumors/noflags.asp

The "cloud" is the internetz, it's called a "cloud" because you don't really know what's going on inside it or where your data is at any given point (false, but the level of abstraction for the end user makes it simple to explain this way), all you know is you send information into the cloud, it reaches it's destination, and the cloud spits back out data to you. Therefore "cloud computing" is using one, two, 40,000, etc. servers that are out there to do your information crunching for you instead of on your local machine. I'm trying to come up with a simple example. Web e-mail, (GMail, Yahoo!, etc) is all in the "cloud" since you can access it from any terminal anywhere in the world. You don't know where the servers are that hold your e-mail, you just know you can sit down and access it from where ever you want as long as you have the internet. If it was on your local machine (e.g. retrieved it periodically from a server via MS Outlook or something) you'd have to access it differently, not from the cloud, but from your local machine.

Quick, haze the noob everyone! Welcome him with snarky comments referencing inside jokes that the reg members will laugh about, but will just upset this guy! Troll, troll as hard as you can!

I'm sorry to hear about this jbot. I'm sure the doctors did everything they could for you, but sadly you'll be an Asian for the rest of your life now with no chance of recovery.

...it's all fun and games until you get a plastic air pellet in between your eyes.

Bump on this thread, a buddy at work is trying to coax me into playing with them - (he just got an AK replica). I'm just learning about the types of guns (spring, AEG, Gas). I've visited airsplat and some other sites, but I'm not looking to spend $300 bones on an airsoft gun when I can get a REAL one for that. Being the cheap bastid I am, any suggestions on the best gun for the money? Bottom dollar isn't what I'm looking for, I'm looking for a good value for my dollar. It seems most of the guys my buddy plays with use LMG or assault rifle type guns (med range tactical, AEGs, 450 round cap) -- though I actually think the pump shotties look baller for an airsoft weapon. Weigh in with your latest opinions.

I always thought the_silverfox was MUCH older -- silverfox, silver hair? I.. um... I learned something today. Happy Birthday.

This seems like a better deal, if only for the simple fact that it comes with a defense barrel and a hunting barrel http://slickguns.com/product/mossberg-28-vent-rib-12-ga-pump-shotgun-combo-25900-store I don't know where "Big Five" stores are though...

If you say so... I find it a little hard to fathom that some dude on a blog was "First" on this anyway. But, his post was slightly compelling. That's why I asked. Either way, I'm still going to be able to sleep tonight.
