@cmotdibbler, don't even get me started!

Rules to having political discussions that don't end friendships:

I see it in the poll results, but not in the poll itself. That's really weird, since others have obviously voted for it, so they can see it.

My laptop's monitor is also 1920x1200. I find the text a little small, and increasing the font size in the OS doesn't always carry over, so I've gotten used to it. But I don't think I'd want to go much higher.

Probably since around the same time you began using it. I also never deleted anything until about two years ago when I switched to the web client. Now I delete a lot of stuff that comes in from places like facebook and tigerdirect. Anything that is an order or something that is more than a mass mailing sort of…

I've been using Google Apps for Domains for YEARS, and my inbox isn't ever over 800MB. I can't imagine using the 7.something GB I have.

Made me think of this.

Never understood why the less you pay, the more freebies you get at hotels. You pay $50 a night at a Holiday Inn, and you'll likely get free parking, free continental breakfast, and free wi-fi. Pay $100 a night for the Hilton across the street, and you'll pay $10 a day parking (plus tip for the valet), $7 a morning…

That's how I get my LH!

Can someone help me up on to my high horse here, please. I don't pirate media—music, movies, software—at all.

I did not read the original blog post. Just this LH article. I stand before all people reading this with my head hung in shame. I made an assumption about the builder based on two paragraphs here, without giving him a fair shake by reading his own words on the situation.

Of course I've broken a law or two. My objection here is that he breaks this law so often that he felt the need to build a device to allow him to break it without getting caught.

If you're paying attention, you never have to make emergency stops at yellow lights, because they give you the time you need to safely stop. In a perfect world, at least.

I'm not denying that you can get tickets for running red lights when you never ran them. I may have misinterpreted the reasoning behind building it—that he regularly runs red lights—but I don't think for a second that these machines are perfect.

The point here is that he runs red lights enough that he gets tickets at the ones with cameras, so he built a device to tell him which lights have cameras just so he will know not to run THOSE lights. The ones with out cameras he will continue to run.

One would assume that if there were an emergency vehicle that was about to go through a red light, and you had to get out of the way for it, that it would also get its picture taken. You go to court, explain the situation. If they don't accept your answer, ask for all red light pictures taken at that light within a…

You go back to the beginning. With a three letter shift, ZOO becomes CRR. You can do the same backwards. A two letter "backwards" shift of APPLE becomes YNNJC (I think!).

I have my router DDWRTed, and have separate encrypted/password protected networks for the adults and the kids in the house. The kid's network forwards all HTTP traffic from the router, through a Linux box I have running Dansguardian and Squid. It's not bullet-proof (HTTPS traffic is not filtered), and it's not…

I am a computer consultant, and I work with HP Service Manager for a living. You can do a lot of stuff inside that product in JavaScript. I understand ServiceNow is entirely JavaScript. JavaScript can also be embedded inside other programs.

I'm pretty good already with HTML. DHTML is a different story.
