    If you are agnostic why don't you just believe anyways?

    What evidence? There is no evidence that god exists. None whatsoever.

    If you are agnostic why don't you just believe anyways?

    Belief is not something you can choose to do. You either believe or you do not. I can't just choose to believe the sky is red.

    How do you get people to start using complex password?

    People always bitch about it here too and I would tell them it's not too ahrd to think of one and use it if you use a sentence. The example I usually use is "My 2 kids names are John and Sally" = M2knaJaS That usually works for most of them.

    Who on Anandtech can **PROVE** They were on the internet first?

    Sep 20 1996 I was on earlier but that's the oldest I could find with a few minutes searching. I have a 205xxx ICQ number and that was my second one. Had one under 120xxx but just grabbed a new one reformatting one day.

    To tools who never carry cash on them and feel the need to tell everyone

    Not to mention that most computer based pos systems in restaurants are designed to allow check splitting easily. It's really not an inconvienience for the server to have to get seperate checks for everyone. And even if it was isn't that a service provided by a server that everyone equates to...

    To tools who never carry cash on them and feel the need to tell everyone

    Go to the glovebox and grab the cheque that I keep tucked in with my insurance/registration. Everyone does that don't they.

    This is despicable.

    And rightfully so. If a business can no longer survive on the higher margins it was charging for products then it's time to lower prices, get out of business, or find something else to sell your customers to remain profitable(service for example).

    What's the longest continous period of time you've spent gaming continuously?

    I'm usually good for a 15hr stint every weekend in EQ2. I have also had 12hr sessions maybe 10 times in the last month.

    Your top 3 Tom Hanks movies?

    Can't believe how many people skipped Philadelphia. SPR while a fantastic movie is not necessarily one of Tom's best.

    Peyton

    Is Pollard out this week? I wanted a good QB for my FF team this year so unlike most who drafted RB's. I grabbed Peyton and he hasn't let me down.

    Will a 6600GT require me to upgrade my power supply?

    But if you are not having stability problems then you don't need a bigger power supply right? Having a bigger PSU does not affect actually card performance.

    Really Low 3dmark score

    So I put in my BFG 6800oc and wasn't exactly blown away. It's faster and allows me to bump up the settings in my games but it didn't wow me. So I figured I should try and open up those 4 other pipes. Before I do this I want to take a benchmark so I have a point of reference on how much of a...

    *XFX 6600GT AGP AT NEWEGG!!!!*

    What is so great about the BFG's. I know the warranty is awesome. But I can get a leadtek 6800 for $20 less. Sell me on why I should go with a BFG

    9800SE or 9800Pro

    It is a price jump as well though. $230ish compared to $190ish. I had decided to get the 9800 Pro and had ordered one. I just cancelled that order. Will wait a few weeks and see about the 6600GT.

    9800SE or 9800Pro

    Please correct me if I am wrong but aren't all 6600GT card only 128-bit. If so it wouldn't exactly be comparable to the 9800Pro.

    9800SE or 9800Pro

    I guess there is a chance that with the Pro I could also get a 360core one and could flash it to an XT(although it would only be 128mb)

    9800SE or 9800Pro

    Ok I am basically faced with a decision to purchase either of these cards. Both will be 128MB 256-bit. My understanding is that the only difference between thse two cards is that the SE has 4 pipelines and the Pro has 8. So the question is. Do I save the $40 and get the SE hoping it will...

    What else would you pay a 2000% markup for?

    But it's ok to pay for that same bottle with some flavouring put into it right? If you buy a pepsi because your thirsty your ok if you buy water your a dumbass. Just don't see it sorry.

    Fantasy Football Trade ?

    I wouldn't do it. Marvin Harrison is a strong WR and will give you good points in that category week after week. Without Harrison you are looking at some weak WR's and low pts. Green is a workhorse. But is he going to be leaps and bounds over everybody ever week. I think there is very few...

    Question on tipping delivery guy...

    I always laugh when people say that next time I will be last on the list etc. Or I will get cold pizza. Wow pizza delivery guy. You just punished me with a cold pizza. You have now cost you place of employment a customer. I don't call to bitch. I just don't order from there again.

    Whats your opinion on this video?

    Whne I first saw it I was surprised that they would pit at that speed. That's insane. I would have tried to box and slow the driver down and then pit. But then after hearing it was a 70 mile chase. How long do they let it go on? There was a window of opportunity and they took it. Give it...

    I am a marriage n00b *pic included*

    Ok contrary to the other people here I don't think your selfish for wanting to go. I also don't believe that you must give up your entire life and become a couple 100% of the time. In fact I think it is extremely unhealthy in a relationship to not have some alone time. Would I go to Europe...

    If you won the Lotto...say $20 million

    Would the Vietnam war been different if we had todays weapons then?

    Those daisy-cutters would have done wonders for thick jungle skirmishes. Napalm helped but was sometimes not as accurate as would have been liked(do to pilot error or called in locations). IT was sometimes hard to pinpoint an enemy location too. Today's daisy-cutters would definately allow...

    Being a waiter sucks...

    If you think waiting tables requires "no skill" and is not physically demanding then you have never actually worked as a server. You have no basis to judge how dificult a job is unless you have actually done it. On a busy night when you are on your feet for 8 hours, constantly moving, taking...

    Being a waiter sucks...

    Bustin his ass? Waiting tables is a minimum wage job. It is unskilled labour that is all that physically demanding compared to other minimum wage worthy labour. And workers generally have a better working envornment then other unskilled labour(air-conditioning, heating etc) That college...

    Being a waiter sucks...

    Hmm so it is true. Employers are required to pay the difference if the employees wages plus their tips do not meet the Federal minimum wage. So servers are guaranteed minimum wage. I will never tip a server again.

    Being a waiter sucks...

    I really love these threads. It's good to have one every few months. All they do is serve to strengthen my resolve against the tipping practice. They remind me that I think it's bullshit and that I refuse to follow some stupid social pressure to subsidize someone's employment. I wasn't...

    At a restaurant should no refills = no tip?

    They don't "deserve" anything. They like anybody have the ability to "earn" tips. It is a non-skilled position unworthy of $15/hr. It is a minimum wage position(yeah I know they don't get minw age). They should. But restaurants don't because the law lets them. If the servers in this...

    At a restaurant should no refills = no tip?

    I usually tip zero to start. If the waitress asks me if I want a refill when she is coming to the table for something else(bringing food clearing plates etc) then my likelihood to tip increases. If she stops and asks for no reason but to see if I want a refill the likliehood increase more. If...
