    Boom! Headshot!

    I like how in the link they say the rifle has a range of "only 1200 meters" It takes exceptional skill to hit targets at ranges of 800+ yards. There are not very many calibers that are effective over 1000 yards, and there are relatively few people that have the skill to hit anything at that...

    Great example of government waste

    We will only have one address. The 911 style address I gave is just an example of the style that was assigned to anyone with a RR Box. My gripe is that they are changing our address for one that is no more precise than the old one. The Rural Route system here was over capacity and really...

    Great example of government waste

    A 911 style address allows emergency dispatch to quickly and precisely locate someones physical location without having to know every street name in thier jurisdiction. Instead of street names, numbers are assigned to roads that identify thier distance from geographic center on the county map...

    Great example of government waste

    I am as close as I care to be to any of those places. I couldn't handle living around that quantity of people. The people there are probably all happy for me to stay here as well.

    Great example of government waste

    Our county recently decided to jump into the 1980's and adopt a 911 style addressing system for rural residents. This was initially a great idea becuase the old Rural Route system wasn't implemented properly and was a confusing mess. My business makes quite a few rural deliveries every day and...

    do restaurant employers have the right to pay for credit card service fees out of waiter's salary?

    How is the statement wrong? People do it all the time whether it's against the TOS or not. The statement is accurate, you just don't agree with the practice.

    do restaurant employers have the right to pay for credit card service fees out of waiter's salary?

    It does work that way. The cost is either built into the price of the item, or the store charges an extra fee at the register. You think the owner works a second job to pay the credit card fees so the customer doesn't have to?

    do restaurant employers have the right to pay for credit card service fees out of waiter's salary?

    Sounds like you've got some entitlement issues. Merchants that charge extra or require minimum purchases for credit cards have just decided to charge YOU for the convienance that YOU want instead of charging everyone for it. Why should everyone have to pay more because YOU don't want to carry...

    do restaurant employers have the right to pay for credit card service fees out of waiter's salary?

    The servers are NOT DEPENDANT on tips. If they do not recieve enough tips to get them to minimum wage the store must pay them more than tip wages to compensate. Even if a server recieves no tips on a given night, they STILL will get paid the same as everyone else. Guess what, I have NEVER had...

    do restaurant employers have the right to pay for credit card service fees out of waiter's salary?

    In my state, the minimum tip wage is ~$4.50, which means that my delivery drivers make between $15-$18 an hour. They don't work any harder than the rest of the crew and use my vehicles and my gas, yet they can make twice as much as an employee in the kitchen working just as hard if not harder...

    do restaurant employers have the right to pay for credit card service fees out of waiter's salary?

    I wonder what is allowed in the event of a chargeback where the employer NEVER recieves reimbursment or compensation. I've had a check come back from the bank that was written just for a tip to the server, I can imagine some bigger stores having large tips left with stolen cards that later get...

    do restaurant employers have the right to pay for credit card service fees out of waiter's salary?

    You don't know how the fees for credit transactions work. There is a per item fee that is charged for every transaction, this is a set fee depending on card type. There is also a percentage of the item total that is charged for every transaction. Any tip that is added to the total will...

    do restaurant employers have the right to pay for credit card service fees out of waiter's salary?

    Using that logic the employer would get to keep all of the tip, being that the employee has no agreement with the cc company. If the employer incurs a fee, I don't think it's unreasonable to be compensated for it. The employer does have the option to not allow CC tips at all, one phone...

    USPS FAIL - Updated 09/18/09

    :confused: They don't advertise it as tracking, they don't even call it tracking. How is it fraud again? The government gives you plenty of legitimate reasons to hate them, there's no need to make stuff up.

    ATI x800 Vid card vs. ATI HD4200 IGP

    I just upgraded my rig and moved my old AGP x800 AIW card to my HTPC. Works great and and still has plenty of power to run most games for my son to play on our 52" lcd. The fan is a little loud for a HTPC, but its rarely an issue. OTOH, IGP would likely be fine if you weren't going to be...

    Shark pwns mans keys

    All boats have a tether that hooks to the driver in case they get knocked overboard by a wave. The tether disables the engine so the boat doesn't keep running without a driver, avoiding a collision and giving the driver a chance to swim back to the boat. Some boats have this device along with...

    42C idle at .93 vcore and 1.6 ghz -- i7 920 is a furnace!

    There's only ~10 seconds difference between your max and current temps. Your temps are not anywhere close to normal even if your ambient temp is high, your temps are an indication of a problem elsewhere.

    42C idle at .93 vcore and 1.6 ghz -- i7 920 is a furnace!

    I wasn't having that big of an issue with my stock HSF, but I agree that it is barely acceptable IF you have a good case. I had GREAT luck undervolting my i7 while still maintaining a stable overclock, and the difference in temperature was huge. Perhaps that may help you out. I'm running...

    Help with my i7 overlock please!

    I believe it helps to have your uncore running at over twice the speed of your memory. Try bumping your uncore up to x21. I was having a problem with stability and this solved my problem and allowed me to lower my voltages substaintially. Right now my 24/7 settings are vCore 1.175 QPI...

    Hello, I have a Dell system that's needing an upgrade and while Intel's website says that the g33/g31 chipset is Quad core capable, Dell's website is showing the max processer to be the E8400. I know Dell's boards are a proprietary design that may or may not support what the chipset does. Is...

    local drive spins up when I access fileserver. why? how do I stop it?

    I've got 7 fans spinning in my case, so I can't really hear the drives once thier on. However, when they spin up my system locks, and since they spin up staggered it's a pain. I don't understand why they do it, I have NO apps on the drive and not much data otherwise, they are just for back ups...

    local drive spins up when I access fileserver. why? how do I stop it?

    Please post the solution when you find the solution. I was having the same problem until I disabled spin-down on the drives. I would love to have them on standby since I rarely need to use them, but I hate the 2 second lock up when they spin up for no reason.

    Bartender BS.. Tried to refuse to charge my credit card tab because it was less than $20..

    I don't disagree with you in that scenario. In the OP's case they should've just cashed him out. Earlier I had been quoted other scenarios brought up in the thread about cashiers refusing service's not rendered when they had signs stating thier policy. However, in the OP's case, if the bar...

    Bartender BS.. Tried to refuse to charge my credit card tab because it was less than $20..

    So you think you are allowed to walk out without paying because you don't like the stores policy? When you walk in the door and you see a sign posted explaining the stores CC policy, you agree to abide by the policy or not request services from them. I stated earlier that my store does not...

    I own a business that accepts credit cards and I can assure you they will NOT cancel a merchant for that, they MAY warn them to stop if there are enough complaints, but they will not cancel someone they make money from. Just an FYI, I did not have to sign an agreement with the credit card...

    Try that and you'll find the credit card companies care about your inconvienance about as much as the merchant does. If you're to inconsiderate to care that the merchant loses money on the sale, do you really think the interchange bank is going to care you had to use a dollar bill to buy your...
