They helped. Local place came to the house and gave me a jump, then the real fun began. Had to go to 3 different auto parts stores before I actually found one that had a battery that would fit my car. And as soon as I left the house it started raining like cats and dogs. :lol:

I guess I should be happy, that Walmart battery that just died on me actually lasted me 6 years.

Roadside Assistance on most insurance policies is relatively cheap. I think it's less than $25 per year on my policy. Maybe around $15 per year or so. They'll tow to the nearest mechanic shop, jump a dead battery, "unlock" your car if you lock the keys in it. I think they'll repair a flat, or change the tire with whatever you have in the trunk (donut), but they won't replace the tire with a new one.

Every year around November, people sign up for AMA in droves...usually when the temps go down past -25C and dudes need emergency towing :lol:

If you think that the average tow (up here) is 150 bucks...if you join AMA immediately and are willing to wait a couple of hours, you save 75 bucks and get other benefits throughout the year :thumbsup:

....for anyone of you fellas that's wondering what a hyperinflationary crash looks like.....look no further than Ukraine:

http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user3303/imageroot/2015/02/20150225_GoldUAH_0.jpg



Furthermore, according to RIA, on Tuesday, Ukrainian television channel Ukraina announced that with the new exchange rate, the minimum wage in Ukraine stands at around $42.90 per month, which according to the channel, is lower than in Ghana or Zambia.

There are currently no plans to raise the minimum wage until December.

Behold hyperinflation:


"Food prices among producers rose 57.1 percent, with the price for grains and vegetables rising 91 percent from January 2014 to January 2015, while the official inflation rate over the period totaled 28.5 percent.



Meanwhile, Ukrainian consumers responded to economic difficulties by cutting their spending in hryvnias by 22.6 percent, which amounts to an almost 40 percent decrease in real consumption."







and the amusing part? greece is bitched about while ukraine is getting money after money tossed at it from those who really, REALLY want to start a war.

"A pro views her work as craft, not art. Not because she believes art is devoid of a mystical dimension. On the contrary. She understands that all creative endeavor is holy, but she doesn't dwell on it. She knows if she thinks about that too much, it will paralyze her. So she concentrates on technique. The professional masters how, and leaves what and why to the gods. (...) The professional is acutely aware of the intangibles that go into inspiration. Out of respect for them, she lets them work. She grants them their sphere while she concentrates on hers.



The sign of the amateur is overglorification of and preoccupation with the mystery.



The professional shuts up. She doesn't talk about it. She does her work."

I too have been a close observer of the doings of the Bank of the United States. I have had men watching you for a long time, and am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the Bank. You tell me that if I take the deposits from the Bank and annul its charter I shall ruin ten thousand families. That may be true, gentlemen, but that is your sin! Should I let you go on, you will ruin fifty thousand families, and that would be my sin! You are a den of vipers and thieves. I have determined to rout you out and, by the Eternal, (bringing his fist down on the table) I will rout you out!

Download your mp3s from Amazon to your computer by checking the box next to the song and hitting the download button. You can name your desktop as your device. They called my desktop "device" 'Eddie's Windows' or something like that. Also, you can delete the tag metadata from the mp3 in current versions of Winamp by removing the Id3v1 and Id3v2 tags in file info when right clicking on the song ('View File Info') in the Winamp playlist. Once you do that you can move the song all you want to whatever device via usb cable or however you get it from your computer to your device.

I don't use Windows Media Player because, well, it sucks. I think the issue may be more with MS's WMP, tbh.

forgetting portugal's basically in an even worse spot right now, financially...






















If there was hope, it MUST lie in the proles, because only there in those swarming disregarded masses, 85 per cent of the population of Oceania, could the force to destroy the Party ever be generated. The Party could not be overthrown from within. Its enemies, if it had any enemies, had no way of coming together or even of identifying one another. Even if the legendary Brotherhood existed, as just possibly it might, it was inconceivable that its members could ever assemble in larger numbers than twos and threes. Rebellion meant a look in the eyes, an inflexion of the voice, at the most, an occasional whispered word. But the proles, if only they could somehow become conscious of their own strength. would have no need to conspire. They needed only to rise up and shake themselves like a horse shaking off flies. If they chose they could blow the Party to pieces tomorrow morning. Surely sooner or later it must occur to them to do it?

If a trial is deemed not valid and they have to set a date for a new one, it shouldn't affect the potential punishment. They've already deemed the trial was unfair for whatever reason and taken measures to re-try the case.

Medical insurance through Blue Cross and Blue Shield. They handle billions of policies. They discovered a security breach where a bunch of customers' data had been stolen from their IT department back in December and estimate that the breach had been going on for weeks. They didn't encrypt anything so basically everybody that has held or is currently holding a policy with BCBS is screwed.

Alright. I'll sign up for it. Let's hope that's enough. I'd hate to have to put a freeze on my credit through the big three.

I hope this is a big enough problem that they come up with another way besides SS#'s to issue credit

That's what really kills me. It's supposed to be illegal for anyone to use SS#'s except for the Social Security Administration. The government came down on university systems hard for using the SS#'s as student id numbers a while back like in '99 or so. It's ridiculous.

Thanks and sorry to hear again. So it was medical history that was jeopardized only, or is there a potential financial loss with CC and bank info too?

One of our accounts was AHS, Alberta Health Services. A few years back someone threw away AHS laptops and some medical info was taken from them. Luckily there wasn't a financial concern, but the patient histories were out there.

Its a treasure trove, full names, everyone covered on your insurance plan names, SS#, addresses of wherever you have lived. Not necessarily banking and CC info, but plenty to start issuing fake CC and opening accounts.

According to the info I got from them, no medical records. Name, birth date, home address, work info, phone number, SS#... all you need to wreak credit and financial havoc on a person for the rest of the victim's life.

my sister had her identity stolen and found out about it on a trip to Vegas....it was weird, no financial loss but the person had been using her info in the States for almost a year...

I had my credit card info stolen once but my CC company was on top of that like flies to a pile of shit. Called me the day of the first suspicious transaction and we shut that line of credit down and opened a new one with extra protections specified.

I've been in the market for RFID blocking wallets ever since.

Worst I've had was trying to use my debit card at three separate places in the same day and getting a strange refusal notice I've never seen before.

Called the bank and they explained that someone's card was compromised in the first store I was in, so they deactivated all cards from the same bank.

Long story about how badly they handled it and by not telling me...I confronted the bank chick in person and she said it was for my safety and they notified me on 'this day'. I looked at her calendar and asked - Really? You guys worked on a Sunday???? (they didn't at the time)

I've talked to employers looking for programmers. The cutting edge companies want nothing to do with MS, and everybody else doesn't have a clue.

C# is just MS's ripoff of C++. I'm surprised Stroustrup doesn't sue the shit out of them. Personally, I'm a native C++ programmer, but I'm getting back into straight C, only looking for (free) resources for more secure coding practices.

I had my credit card stolen somewhere in-transit. Mail theft I guess. I get home delivery so an inside job maybe? Anyway, the fool signs an East Indian name when paying for a big-ass TV (I'm not E. Indian) and I get a call from the CC company.

Then a police officer visits the next day and asks the particulars. Whoah!

Cheap RFID block - Tinfoil in your wallet....will at least limit the transmission I hear. :tinfoil:

I'm using tinfoil right now. Feels kinda silly. They've got some really nice wallets out there that are RFID blocking though.

I learnt C -- in 1986!

Surprised it's still around, because at the same time I also learnt the dead languages of COBOL, Fortran, PL/1, Clipper dBASE, Machine Language and good ol' BASIC (though not necessarily in that order).

Pascal's been supplanted by the latest and greatest languages in common use today. Fortran is still in use, but it's numbers are dwindling.

Guess it s depends what your looking for, tons of big companies use MS. I get job postings all the time for .Net and MS SQL

I doubt it, but if something great came up closer to home maybe. Our whole system is built on SQL and .NET so the C# I would be interested in to start doing some more of our programming myself

6 weeks, 3-5 hours per week. They do language basics and OOP plus a special topic in 6 weeks. Prerequisites include loops, program flow control (which can be a pretty deceptive way of saying 'know everything'), and database concepts (which can get really ugly really fast). They're assuming you've programmed in some language before...

I know nothing about .Net, so I have no idea...

Fuck it, I'll take a look, just for the hell of it. I'm in.

C/C++, Java, Python, and some 16 and 32-bit assembly language programming. So just straight programming experience on my end.

I hang on to C/C++ and Python. I have a vendetta against Java, mainly to do with the fact that it's a complete ripoff of C++ (Stroustrup should sue, but again, he didn't). Assembly is so machine specific, so unless you're really into controlling your processor and hardware on the lowest level, which there really is no reason to nowadays, then it's just a waste of time. You can use it to reverse engineer programs, but really, that kind of game's for kids.

Oh yeah, I'm also playing around with R, but that's just a statistics-specific language so it really doesn't count in my eyes.
