8/16 My Acura Integra got stolen the other day, and there was lots
of stuff in it. Anything I can do besides file a police report
and wait? My insurance covers the car, but not the stuff inside.
\_ Should've wired up a remote-explode device.
\_ Are you sure you just didn't forget where you parked?
\_ Vigilante Justice!
\_ But he has to find who the culprit is first.
\_ Nah, just take out every one you see driving an integra.
You'll get the guy eventually. Or at least you'll have
fun before going down in a blaze of lead.
\_ Buy it back from ebay, your friendly online fence
\_ D'oh that sucks. I only had the two rear tires of my Integra
stolen.
\_ They took your tires and left your rims on? Bummer.
\_ Nope, they took those too. I woke up to find my car on
two jacks.
\_ I wonder why they left you their jacks and didn't take all
the four wheels. Dumb thieves.
\_ Start making a list of things you had in the car...esp. that
new moutain bike you've always wanted.
\_ not to mention, that titanium powerbook G4 with 1GB of RAM
that was left on the back seat..
\_ and a case of freebsd cds!
\_ The police should set up thief traps. Create situations that just
scream for something to be stolen...then watch.
\_ Watch is all they'd be able to do. Look up "entrapment".
\_ This is not true. It's only entrapment if they're
trying to trick someone into doing something illegal.
Parking a nice car somewhere and watching it is by
no means entrapment.
\_ Look up "sting".
\_ If they only have that much manpower ......
\_ I just realized that with GPS systems this would be very viable.
You don't even need an officer nearby. Also, setup multiple
"target cars," then when the car is driven away, the GPS starts
beeping, dispatch is notified, closest officer pulls them over.
\_ "loJack"
\_ similar been on world's police videos #1-4
\_ That's why I dont keep any important crap in it except my rottweiler
\_ Man, that's probably the stupidest thing I've seen in weeks.
\_ Mmm, baked rottweiler..
\_ If you have home owner insurance, I think some of your stuffs might
be covered.
\_ All your Engrish are belong to us. |

8/16 Here is the list of motd fan clubs that we've seen: they're in no
particular order.
* SCD fan club
* psb fan club
* (fucker) fan club
\_ Dude. (fucker) sucks. How did this guy get a fan club?
\_ (fucker) has a big following! I collect everything he writes.
He has humor and originality. Not like kinneydrivel(tm).
\_ Big following my ass. He has himsel--err, you. as far as
I know that's about it. The only reason he compares
\_ is this true? i've never heard of an ali or paolo fan.
favorably to kinney is that he doesn't post much. That's
about the only discernable difference.
\_ (fucker) rocks yer ass. get over it.
\_ LOL. Riiiiiiight.
* BDG (bitter divorced guy) fan club
\_ Membership ought to be contingent on either being unmarried
and commited to bachelorhood married but repentent (the fan
club is there to help) or divorced and suffering. "Happily
Married" and "Romantics" need not apply.
* ali fan club
\_ is this true? i've never heard of an ali fan.
\_ goddammit. I wrote "ali or paolo", but of course that was
censored. FUCKING BITCHES! BTW, ali, tx for not censoring.
\_ i enjoy the attention. -ali
* kinney fan club
\_ moot. he's posting his stuff on
<DEAD>applied.demonics.org/~kinney/forum/index.php<DEAD> nowadays.
* anything else?
\_ yermom doesn't need a fan club
\_ what about tjb?!
\_ tjb has no fan club. But there is a committee "to get
tjb a soda account by any means necessary."
* i had a fan as an anonymous coward once. fan, where are you?
\_ Anonymous Coward rocks! Keep the faith man!
- Anonymous Coward's #2 fan!
* tom fan club. -- tom #6 fan.
* sky fan club, the Krazy Kriminal's Krew! |

8/16 Anyone knows what the Japanese or English title of the Japanese TV
cartoon series ~20 years ago whose Cantonese title is "Doctor IQ"?
Thx.
\_ Dr. Slump (Arale-chan)
\_ Speaking of Asian cartoons, when I was in China I picked up
some VCD's of a chinese cartoon featuring policeman cats. I don't
speak chinese and there are no subtitles but they are hilarious
to watch simply because they are so surreal and so violent.
Anyone know what the name of this cartoon is? |

8/16 my power window on my honda doesn't work, motor seems fine, but
seems a cable broke or somethign, anyone know a good place to fix
that kind of stuff in san jose, milpitas, fremont area? thanks
\_ Go to the Honda dealer and buy the part you need.
\_ Get a screwdriver, open your door, put the glass back on the
clamp, screw it back together, be happy you spent a couple
hours working on something instead of paying someone $100.
\_ tried that, but a cable busted.. it is more than removing
the door panet, there is a steel wall that keeps in the
motor and clamp, etc. and a few electrical connectors
\_ power windows are a bitch. - former AAA automotive locksmith.
\_ Libraries (or maybe even the Berkeley ToolLending library) have
copies of Honda, et.al. repair manuals. Look it up and if it looks
easy, maybe can repair it yourself. Note however, it may not tell
you the tricks earned from experience (i.e. you might fuck up
the interior covering for the door and it never fits right again).
\_ too late for that (covering) :( |

8/16 Anyone has experience with a company called Orlando Promotions
(http://www.orlandopromo.com I got an unsolicited flyer from them via fax,
which lists a corporate discount vacation package that's very cheap.
I want to find out if I can trust the company or not. I can't find
the company in http://www.bbb.org Are there any other similar organizations
that warn the public about bad businesses?
\_ http://www.bbb.org
\_ Thanks, but I said I couldn't find it in http://www.bbb.org
\_ Oh yeah, sorry about that. Maybe they are OK. Just google
for them or something...
\_ If it is too good to be true, it almost always is.
\- there is a news group like ba.consumers you can try, as well as
the travel newsgroups. i would yuse google and google groups.--psb
\_ you moron, you are the reason we all get spam, don't respond |

8/16 values.h is deprecated. Where can I find useful #defines like
MAXLONG these days? grepping for it in /usr/include didn't
turn up anything, yet it seems something like this should exist.
\_ limits.h? (INT_MAX, LONG_MAX, ULONG_MAX, etc.)
\_ > cd /usr/include && grep LONG_MAX *.h
pthread.h:#define PTHREAD_THREADS_MAX ULONG_MAX
\_ Look at the files limits.h includes. Specifically,
machine/limits.h.
\_ Thanks! |
