Geek Food: A Cookbook for the Technologically Inclined

thaen writes: "Might want to check out the latest offering from arstechnica.com. Somebody has compiled a 51-page book of recipes written by geeks, for geeks, and originally posted in the arstechnica 'Lounge' forum. Mmmm...the omelette..." I seriously hope that the macaroni and cheese recipe really needs "tabasco sauce", rather than "tobacco sauce", because I can't even imagine... no. Not going to think about it.

Friend Or Foe - Explain

[Anonymous Coward]

Can someone explain why there's a friend or foe function, THAT HAS NO EFFECT WHATSOEVER?

It doesn't filter dickheads or trolls who have about as much skill as a script kiddie.

How CmdrTaco blown it again?

To here when logged in. Change the threshold to 0. Assign a people modifier to your foes (-6).

If you want to read everyone's posts, but your foes, assign +1 for offtopic, troll, redundant, and flamebait.

I don't know if that will really work but try it.

Say your prayers little one
don't forget, my son
to include everyone

tuck you in, warm within
keep you free from sin
till the sandman he comes

sleep with one eye open
gripping your pillow tight

exit light
enter night
take my hand
off to never never land

something's wrong, shut the light
heavy thoughts tonight
and they aren't of snow white

dreams of war, dreams of liars
dreams of dragon's fire
and of things that will bite

sleep with one eye open
gripping your pillow tight

exit light
enter night
take my hand
off to never never land

now I lay me down to sleep
pray the lord my soul to keep
if I die before I wake
pray the lord my soul to take

hush little baby, don't say a word
and never mind that noise you heard
it's just the beast under your bed,
in your closet, in your head

exit light
enter night
grain of sand

exit light
enter night
take my hand
we're off to never never land

The last line should read:
"We're off to Napster Napster land!"

Fuck off, troll

[Anonymous Coward]

Fuck off, troll. Your mental processes must be on par with those of the average piece of cow dung. It pains me to think that, by the mere act of typing, I am crushing millions upon millions of amoebae and bacteria living on my keyboard with more intellectual capacity and evolutionary potential than you.

MOD UP PLZ!!! Re:alt.gourmand and the USENET Cook

[yota]

Well, THAT brings back memories... You've got two options: 1. I found an online version of it here [cf.ac.uk]. 2. If you really want to recapture the "old school" experience, you can get the original troff sources here [std.com] - but then you have to go to Finland [funet.fi] to find the "recipes" macro package that you need to process them successfully.

I wonder why the abobe post has not been modded up yet!

Please do!!!
