<0> but it doesn't mean that :D
<1> or ****, i dont care who you are, if you speak PROPER ENGLISH
<1> thats all it boils down to
<0> yeah
<0> I agree with that
<0> They could put Martians all for all I care
<0> just speak English
<1> And also I don't like the way Indian call centers appear to be reading pre-written scripts. I feel NO SENSE OF SINCERITY with that.
<0> yeah
<1> Its like they dont really understand whats going on, because they DONT NEED TO
<1> so I dont feel like im being handled properly
<0> because US tech support doesn't read scripts :D
<1> depends on the company
<1> some are really educated
<0> </sarcasm>
<2> Yeah, large US tech support operations have been flashcard-based for a long time.
<0> hahah flashcard :D
<2> I've had to talk to a level 2 or 3 tech at RoadRunner ever since I first got the service in, like, 2001.
<0> I get Indian techs from Microsoft PSS all the time and also Cisco
<1> I had to call APC tech support the other day wondering what the **** was up with a large smartups system, the guy on the other end knew immediately what was up
<0> those people are NOT using flashcards
<2> The level one guys are less knowledgeable than my cat when it comes to cable modem service. :(
<0> you'll get flashcards and smart people whether you're outsourced or not
<0> there's US firms that are flashcard
<0> there's outsourced that are smart
<1> Covad DSL tech support is AWESOME. I've dealt with them. Their techs really know their ****. They are not using cards.
<0> cause Cisco reps are NOT using flashcards
<2> z0g^sn: If you want to live in a global economy where you get cheap goods from Taiwan, then this is the other edge of that sword.
<0> yup
<1> i dont buy cheap ****.
<2> z0g^sn: Take off your shirt. Where was it made?
<1> im a firm believer in getting what you pay for.
<0> was your motherboard made in the US ?
<2> (Or if you can look at the label without removing it. I can't.)
<1> I dunno. Wherever polo and lacoste shirts are made?
<2> z0g^sn: Probably not the United States.
<1> **** if i know
<2> My underwear was made in the Dominican Republic. :-D
<2> I've got rastaboxers.
<1> eww. freeballing.
<1> heh
<2> It's a lazy Saturday.
<2> I haven't put pants on yet.
<2> So I'd be *really* freeballing.
<3> my penis keep falling out of my boxers
<1> sure is. have no plans at all. i really wanted to get a brake job done on my car but i opted to be lazy.
<1> anyone up for some battlefield 2?
<2> I haven't played BF2 in months.
<1> i wanted to install special ops but i left the freaking cds at work
<1> bf2 is a pita to install.... first we installed bf2, then installed patch 1.2, then installed special ops. that wouldnt connect to a server until you reapply patch 1.2 again
<1> whats stupid is the special ops installer attempts to patch you up to 1.12 without even checking if you are at a higher patch level
<2> I haven't even touched SO yet.
<2> Don't know if I will or not.
<1> also the patcher/installer checks the free space on the drive specified at HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ProgramFilesDir versus checking the free space on the drive that you ACTUALLY INSTALLED THE GAME ONTO
<1> retarded
<1> SO is cool
<1> bf2 is just full of errors, makes you wonder how clumsy the developers were.
<2> That is retarded.
<1> it STILL doesnt work properly on a SMP system.
<2> Their whole official server **** pissed me off.
<1> they recommend either loading the game, ctrl-alt-del and specifying affinity in taskmanager, or using some reskit tool to modify the exe header
<2> It made it exceptionally difficult to build a community on an independent server.
<1> at work we add a boot.ini entry with /NUMPROC=1
<1> its just stupid. all around.
<2> That's ****ing weak, rebooting with a different kernel configuration to play a game.
<2> And it's been out for, what, almost a year?
<2> 9 months?
<1> Yeah. First time ive seen a game have a stink on SMP systems
<1> and youd think they would have FIXED IT BY NOW
<2> Seriously.
<2> You'd expect that at least one of the developers involved would be using an SMP box.
<2> What with their ability to build much faster.
<1> Hell yeah, I mean, theyre probably dealing with high level CAD apps to build models, meshes, maps, etc
<2> And that they'd go, "Hey, this ****s. I'm going to fix that."
<1> and of course SMP is the obvious choice for a box that builds such entities
<2> All I'm sayin' is that if the game were open source it would've been fixed by now.
<1> i work at an engineering company man, we do that **** all day, every day, hence all boxes are smp
<2> ;-D
<1> were getting in some 7800gs cards soon.
<2> I like the color blue.
<1> pale?
<2> No.
<0> I calculated the TCO on my cat
<1> blue is my favorite color. dabadeedabadaa
<0> paper towels, food
<0> litter, etc
<1> all my walls are blue
<1> with dark blue accents
<2> FKnight`: AHAHHA
<1> FKnight`: The real question is whats the ROI?
<0> that cat is like $70/month
<0> the ROI is love and cuddles dude
<0> 5*2
<0> sorry
<0> meant that for calc.exe
<4> Muligan
<1> Wow. how hokey this game console looks. http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?InvtId=42600&cm_mmc=geekmail-_-newarrivals_html-_-04mar06-_-banner42600
<1> like, by definition, a proper standup game console should be taller then you are.
<2> Totally.
<1> and have a fluorescent backlit illuminated game nameplate
<1> I want a tabletop pacman game
<1> the cocktail tables
<1> those things owned
<2> I have a friend who's got a cocktail table game of Gorf with *all-original* boards and components.
<2> Even the controllers are original. It's amazing.
<1> neat
<1> http://images.webmagic.com/klov.com/images/10/1087182304.jpg
<2> That's the one.
<1> when i was a kid, i vaguely remember tabletops being very popular in arcades
<5> I went to BK for lunch, and saw a picture of that Cheesy Chicken Sandwich thingy.
<5> So in a hurry, I ordered one.
<5> And ate the whole thing. I think it must have 1,200 calories in the sandwich alone.
<1> Thats about par for a BK sandwich.
<5> Not counting the fries.
<1> did you get standard soda with sugar too?
<1> i abstain from fries and sugared soda. thats the worst.
<5> Got a diet soda.
<5> SO IT'S ALL GOOD FOR ME!1
<1> cool
<6> are there any rules in here
<6> ?
<1> speaking of health related matters. i need to get off my *** and hit up GNC at the mall. i need more vitamins.
<6> how can i download windows updates without having that validation crap blocking me
<1> whats the problem?
<2> !info warez
<1> normally the genuine validation is transparent and a non-issue.
<6> my bad
<6> heh
<6> didnt know
<6> thats why i said are there any rules in here
<6> hmm
<2> Kind of a vague question, though, but no harm done.
<6> oh
<6> heh
<5> I bottled 5 gallons of beer today.
<6> how can i disable it
<5> And I'm bottling another 5 next week
<1> 5 is an interesting number to bottle. thats like a 1/3 keg.
<2> greggdogg: And does the person whose beer this is know you're bottling it?
<2> :)
<1> you homebrew gregg?
<5> 5 gallons is a pretty standard homebrew amount
<5> Yeah
<1> cool
<1> i wanna try that sometime.
<6> are the updates the same for the media center edition 2005
<5> It's easy, but you can't live in a ****hole like yours unless you clean up for a day. :D
