What I want to do is use the TC as my router, but stream media wirelessly to my mini. What issue are you having with wireless?

I'll watch it tomorrow...caps game tonight

aim me, I like the chicklets, but I'm not married to them I like the old apple keyboards too.

I have an old style bluetooth keyboard and mouse I'll be selling at some point. I need wired, and I like the chicklets (I need wired for the kvm)

That's a long way out to still be in communist country. Shoulda gone to NH.

I was 13 in 1983. I was playing football, riding my bike, reading science fiction, and went to my first concert, Styx. Several people are younger than you are. Several others act younger.

workflow is a big word for jay. It means it's useful for more than music.

I was tempted to respond to a tangential response from one of our canadian members, but thought better of it. Lets just leave it at comparing apples to oranges isn't useful.

He's saying that it's not fair that the healthy young people don't subsidize the cost for unhealthy old people by contributing without using the services.

Government isn't necessarily bad in theory, only in practice.

I'd love to see an example of something done by the government being more efficient than something done by private enterprise. Governments can't even handle getting people a driver's license efficiently.

I believe that there should be a safety net. People should get a reasonable level of healthcare. Right now, that's provided by the hospitals. Most hospitals write off millions of dollars in care for people who can't afford the help they get. I don't think people should get all their healthcare for free. Or even most. How people live affects their health. The option to pay for better care should always be available, and if we make it unavailable in this country, people will go elsewhere for it. See the canadian example. People who can afford to go to the US for their healthcare do. Profit is one of the incentives to better service and advances in treatments. You don't have an inalienable right to be free from disease and injury. If you do drugs, and get hepatitis, I shouldn't have to pay for you to get a transplant. So if it's accepted that there are things that should be covered and some that shouldn't, then as a society, we need to determine where that threshhold is. Right now in the US, people under a certain income are covered by medicaid. So most of the people who aren't covered by any insurance have chosen not to have insurance in order to have money elsewhere. That leaves illegal immigrants. Do we really want to set up a system where we treat anyone who comes into this country for any problems they might have, whether or not they're here legally?

If I can sell my airport extreme N I'd be interested in a time capsule. Curious as to how well it'd work as a home for itunes media files

My free cash went to shelving units for the basement and garage floor tiles this weekend

Awesome. The touch is on my "want" list.

This is why people want you to go the fuck away. You don't care about the discussion, you're not even on topic. You just want attention. Go back to 4chan.

happy birthday vince! Just remember, Jennifer said it's over, so no more drunk dialing.

I had friends in alaska who climbed denali (mt mckinley). That sounded like enough of a pain I wouldn't want to try anything harder The idea of extreme training for 6 months prior makes it completely not worth it.

RAID is better than no protection. Not everyone needs double mirrored backups with a hot site

I'd have to agree. Why did you go to an emergency room for a rash from a food allergy?

Be careful citing wikipedia when discussing academics. Wikipedia is a very politicized source.

Why not? Why not negotiate for your best interest? It's the whole "I shouldn't have to negotiate for health care" thing that got us in the mess we're in now. If you don't negotiate (and that doesn't always just mean about price, they can make effective but better value decisions when treating you if they know cost is a concern), then they will choose the latest greatest options to treat you, which are often cost prohibitive.
