  1. roco. but i decided it was a great way to derail thread. and czech republic best european team? right after denmark then... for best euro i would nomiinate france, germany, italy
  2. rather cell phone antennae are amazing. consider their size and the signal strength involved. pieces of fricking art.
  3. thanks. i always preferred mountain bikes since they can take a little more abuse. and i was always a bit on the large side and i just don't trust those skinny road racing tires.
  4. this site is so warm and fuzzy it sickens me. even the trolls are friendly.
  5. and sgt. wilkinson was disqualified from the competition for shooting his wad prematurely...
  6. bring it on, girly-man.
  7. yeah, that is impressive. my personal best there is 31.4 on public roads on a mountain bike. and you wouldn't catch me dead in those shorts.
  8. no, i think you were the first. the first one i've seen anyway. no, not the first to post a cached test, the first to actually admit that it was fake! rock on, enjoy your stay here, tell your friends!
  9. sport? you call that sport? i call it a competition between team doctors to see who can get away with the most doping...
  10. i suspect legit corporate customers that replied before the offer made it into the mainstream did actually get the thing.
  11. soccer is too violent for me. i prefer good old american rules football. football is more violent than soccer you say? i beg to differ. playing football i know that the guy coming at me is going to lay a hit on me as hard as he can. so i can prepare for it. in soccer you can never be sure if he is simply going to tackle you (yes that is the term) to get the ball or if he is going to tackle you ignoring the ball and going for blood. i've had both happen. and i do prefer wearing pads to prevent the guy going for blood from getting it. (and headbutting with a helmet is more fun than risking breaking your own head) and if you have to decide what is more violent, look at the riots you get around soccer games and look at the lack of riots around football games. just my US$0.02 worth. but you read it and now the amazing human brain means you are stuck with it for a long time. enjoy!
  12. heh. looks like we have a lot of former air force people in here. i however was in the german air force.
  13. that's riled up. and your gun company analogy sucks. the gun companies do not offer facilities to commit murders. the pirate bay offeres facilities to link to copyrighted material and flaunts the fact that they are promoting theft. they even do so in their name. and yes, of course there are millionaire actors and artists out there that in some cases are millionaires only because the people don't feel bad about paying for the mindless drivel they produce. there are also plenty of small time actors and artists that are just squeaking by. just watch the credits on a porn movie. how much do you think "2nd girl with cum in hair" got paid, hm? not to mention all the extras, technicians, wardrobe designers, grips, roadies and others that go into making the big hollywood productions and music albums. yes, the focus is on the rich. conveniently so, since one can then steal with a clean conscience. but there /is/ an industry behind the whole thing that lives off it. plenty of those people probably get paid less than you.
  14. then hand them over to the riaa or mpaa. they can fit them with concrete overshoes and sell the sinking of the piratebay scum as a snuff film.
  15. when working at the german telekom i got the boss tyo sign an expense chit for a dozen of the damen things. we then got a bunch of different phones and tested their reception using the onboard diagnostics, not just the bar display. when we called in the cellphone techs with their gear we stuck the things on that too. no improvement, ever. except a negative result if placed just right over the internal antennae of nokia phones. it appeared to cause some reflection if turned just right thereby decreasing signal strength. transmission strength was also at best worse, battery runtime decreased slightly on those that had degraded signal.
  16. ok, yeah, the phone is what defines wether or not you get the signal in strong enough. as for that cellphone booster, (i can't believe they are still peddling the thing, it knocked me off my chair laughing 5 or so years ago and it still has the same design) it is a sticker with some metallic circuit looking thingy attached to it. does it connect in any way to the phone's electronics? no. does it form a parabolic antenna around the phone that you then point at the tower? no. so how in the name of all that is unholy is the damned thing supposed to boost your reception??!?!?!
  17. fuck who? tpb? they collect donations and allow links to illegal content. that's good enough to convict em. if they use the excuse "but we can't be held responsible for the content that members pot" then they have to filter content before it is published.
  18. what's to love about someone flaunting the fact that they enable people to steal shit? i see no humor in that whatsoever. what is the difference between piratebay and me setting up an old lady trakcer so you can find out where the most old ladies are to enable you to steal more handbags per hour?
  19. the reason your company wants you certified is that the secretary can use the wizards. but if something breaks in the database and they have to have somebody to root around in the database without being able to use any fancy automations, tools or scripts they want to know that you are up to the task.
  20. fine. but the fact that they do track legal torrents doesn't mean they can't be punished (i say hang, draw and quarter 'em) for promoting theft with the tracking of illegal torrents.
  21. well, anything those retards at break say is nothing but a hint at what it isn't.
  22. if you get a recovery media it will probably just get reinstalled. you would have to pay extra to get a true windows cd to install from, then it should not get installed. (unless they have a really freaky deal going on with ms to have the windows setup pop it in.)
  23. bah. tacky fake assault rifle would be just as bad. that there is a genuine sniper rifle. thing doesn't even fire full-auto. but it will let you shoot the left nut off a mosquito at half a mile if the bug has the good grace to hold still for the second or so it takes the round to cover the distance... which is why the guy is in such a compromising position. he is giving the shooter a steady platform to aim from.
  24. i like dell. good boxes at rock bottom prices, good warranty too. i just don't like the idea of a new box coming preloaded with ad-, spy-, and malware like assorted google crap and skype.
  25. can't get mine to do even a simple one like quitting smoking.
