Nice lead, but it's still that stupid stetched butt guy again .Here's a picture of the cell phone blowing up. Hardly an explosion, looks like a little smoke to me.

You must be pretty stupid to think people will click on that.

First, try to figure out what you absolutely need to have in your pockets/belt (try maybe pocketing/belting the cell phone and the pda). The rest can be put in a handy case -- made specifically for hauling your shit to and from work. These cases, typically designed to handle briefs (not your underwear), can handle these devices with ease (hence the name briefcase). They're usually priced at $25 and up. Click here to get started (no affiliation...just a google search).

Good luck!

The reason I don't have an anchor in my sig is because Slashcode turns it in some unreasonably long bunch of html that won't fit.

Funny to find out that the last question in SCO's teleconference (August 5, 2003) came from the same Herbert Jackson at Renaissance Ventures who had fabricated that "Strong Buy" investment thesis in March 2003 and that "Handicapping SCO - vs. - IBM Lawsuit" paper where they allotted the fur of the IBM bear in advance (April 2003) as Groklaw had published some days ago.

The laughter of those two pals might now be seen in a special light.

"Sontag: OK, the last question.

"UF: Thank you. And that will come from Herbert Jackson at Renaissance Ventures.

"Jackson: Hi, guys, you've been busy.

"McB: (laughs) Yes, it's been a busy few months.

"Jackson: (laughs) Can you comment on any discussions with other software vendors that might produce a (inaudible) legal version of Linux going forward?

"McB: We have a variety of discussions going on and I'm not at libertyto go into detail of all the various discussions that are out there. I can say there are companies we're dealing with that have seen the code, have seen the problem, they're stepping up There are others that are taking the approach to really come after us, and to try and take our legal rights that we have and just squash these rights.

An interesting point indeed! Whether or not there is more than just a semantic distinction is a topic being debated in this article.

Worth taking a look at, at least.

And most importantly, was Cliff smoking something when he posted this, and if so, where can I get it?

Smoke my Cliff and some of my genes can get absorbed into your body, thus making you less stupid.

A more indepth look at the history of Galileo can be found here. It's interesting how the didn't even originally plan for the observation of Jupiter.

Got the year wrong or something? Slashcode should automatically prevent that.

In related news, eBay is spying on its customers. Not much new about that :(

This story too is buried in the bowels of /., but not listed on main page.

Imagine this in 3D!!!

That's interesting - the hottest coffee the investigators at the case could find from McDonald's competitors was around 160 degrees farenheight (about 70 degrees celcius) - some way off boiling. Certainly even with the toughest mouth in the world drinking coffee at almost boiling would burn you badly.

Also, the vehicle wasn't moving - she was in the passenger's seat and it was stationary. The cup was between her legs to grip it while she took the cap off it.

She wasn't driving. Her grandson was driving and the car was stationary. She put the cup between her legs to hold it while she took the top off. There's a very interesting post on it here:

Liquids at 180 degrees farenheight will burn the skin within two seconds and is far too hot to drink. In the previous ten years to the case McDonalds had had 700 claims filed against it by people who had been burnt by its coffee, and had done nothing about it.

Originally she aksed for $20,000 compensation, but the court awarded her $200,000 which was then reduced to $160,000 because it was deemed 20% her fault. The rest of the damages were punative.

What about a cluster of those?

Dear Mr. McBribe,

We, from the open ass community acknowledge your valid points and we assure you we are going to fix the code we've worked hard to produce and steal from you. In the meantime, mind you if we keep copying licenses from vmware and several microsoft products, since without vmware and windows we cannot make any use of our worderfully engineered linux code?

Send some cheers for your daughter, on the behinds.

If you like Mailinator, check out a program I recently wrote called Nator - it uses Mailinator as a backend and it can scrape the email on mailinator.com and send it to your home email address. It also does some cool things with random usernames. Details here. It's free, written in Java, and is open source (or will be once we're out of the beta phase) Brian

Your sig:

LinuxSecurity - All the Linux vulnerabilities Slashbots don't want you to see

You are such a troll! Most of those vulnerabilities are for applications! Many of them are just freaking bug reports! If Microsoft was held responsible for all the non-Microsoft applications then you'd be comparing apples with apples.

GNU/Linux distros include all those applications. But you don't have to install them!

Take a minimal Windows install and a minimal Debian GNU/Linux install. Or take a Windows box and load up a selection of applications from various vendors and a selection of stuff from downloads.com, and compare it with a reasonably complete Debian install. Then I will be able to take your criticisms seriously. As it is, you are overly critical.

But if somebody is concerned about the emissions from a few Space Shuttle launches, imagine what cities full of hydrogen-powered cars would do.

This link takes you to such a project on Freshmeat. Yeah, it's beta, but my experience has it that if it's beta, there are very few problems.

Does AOHell block these guys?

Would an effective workaround at this point be for LiveJournal users to use a URL link shortening service like makeashorterlink or tinyurl? That way, the third party visitor links to the shortening service, and the browser is then redirected on to the AOL address. It seems like this could be an effective way to manipulate the referer field usefully.

Alternatively, link via a proxy service like Anonymizer, but in practice I'm not sure this would be as easy.

Where there's a will to get around roadblocks, there's usually a way to do it. If Anonymizer can allow 'net users in China & Iran to reach out to the rest of the world, I'm sure a way can be found around puny little AOL/TW.

I recommend going to THIS TinyURL instead. Of course, it's still just a workaround, but it's an interesting concept regardless.

How about we ALL just go to THIS TinyURL? They won't know where these hits are coming from, if other posts in this thread are true.

Could you get around this using tinyurl? I'm not sure if it changes the HTTP_REFERRER or not.

This one is 40g, 10g more than the iPod, and at the same price. My iPod is still en route -- I may well return it if the Karma is shipping soon and I can verify Linux support.

Isn't it clear?

Homer was busy reading _The Internet for Dummies: Remedial Edition_, so he clearly could not be trusted to adequately protect his safety monitoring system. And if that wasn't bad enough, after "buying out" Compuglobalhypermeganet, Bill Gates sent his men over to the power plant to make sure Homer wasn't hiding anything. While one guy ransacked Homer's office, the other co-opted Lenny and Carl to install Windows across the network. That last part got cut from the final version, but it's true.

Oh, by the way, the Simpsons live in Springfield Ohio. :-p
