Domino Day '02 Ends with a New World Record
Bobson writes "It took 89 people 8 weeks to set up 4000000(4e6) domino pieces for an attempted World Record. The last piece was set at 21:00 CET(Central European Time) by a Backstreet Boy. Jim somebody... Anyhow said piece started of over 90 minutes of an amazing domino avalanche show. It is one of the top hacking feats I've had the privilege to witness. This time Live on TV. I hope tapes (dvds) of it become available.
They even had time delays of more than 5min each, built into the system to allow for advertising intermissions. Some parts of the installation didn't quite work, but overall it was worth seeing. The final tally came to 3847295 pieces fallen. It ended less than an hour ago and you should have seen it."
yep
You pick up this working girl who's hooked on smack who hussles and scores. that's all I do she says. she says ten bucks for head, fifteen for half n half she says three hits a day at thirty five per, you say that's seven tricks a day atleast but she says sometimes I get lucky, once this guy gives me a bill and a half just to eat me, only time I ever came. You figure you can save her, you sell your color tv, it keeps her off the streets a whole day, you hawk your typewriter for one joe, your shotgun, your watch, a week later you say listen I'm a little short but she says, no scratch, no snatch. You say look it is better to give, but she says beat off creep. One night they spot you on the street in your skivies, trying to sell your shoes. You tell them who you are but they nail you. Then she happens by and she says christ you look fucked, she says hang tough, but you don't say anything, you just think what a bum rap for a nice sensitive guy like me.
I'm guessing your single?
Beowulf cluster of these! All lined up, ready for a slashdotting, which the server seems to be acting like too.. Knock the server over, you slashdotters!
during a botched arrest for possesion of child pornography. Whether you liked him or not, he was a valuable part of the slashdot.....
Wait, what the hell am I saying? No one liked him, he wasn't a valable part of the community, he was shit. I'm glad he's dead! Hopefully I'll have funeral details soon so we can all go piss on his grave. Enjoy hell Michael, you will not be missed.
...what if they made a Beowulf cluster of these?
(dodges lobbed fruit) "Hey!"
Honey, I shrunk the Cygwin
Holy shit, dominos and pron! I know I am not going to be the only one who clicks the 'Erotik' link down the side of the page!
Which raises another point... Why do the Germans even bother with German anymore? I mean I've been to Germany, and everyone there speaks fairly good English. From what I understand it is required learning in public schools or something, so they are already on the right track. Why not just ditch German and get with the program?
watchout!
Chicago2600.net more than a lifestyle, its a survival trait.
gee look
i click on the link and
i can't click on back fast enough to get back to slashdot
grrrrrr marketing
The cnn link is the goatse.
I try to be nice, I really do, but then you fucks and go do things like this. What the hell is wrong with the above comment? Its things like this that make me troll. Isn't the parent an interligent and rational question that relates directly to the topic as presented by the poster? What do you want from me? What more can I give you? Do I have to include "MICROSOFT SUX0R, LINUX RULZ" after every comment? would that make you happy?
Michael, if I ever find out that you are responsible for this I'm going to come to your house, cut off your nuts, chop them up into pieces and feed them to you with a spoon.
Lemme guess... You've got karma to burn, right?
People will pass up steak once a week, for crap every day.
slagging sims and spamming slashdot...
The only difference? Stephen wasn't a virgin......
How the hell that can be modded anything else than Funny I don't know.
This guy has reeeaaallly lost it! and he is damn funny when he loses it too! =)
Mod parent up as informative, please.
No, I don't really care about this whole story either, but this guy has gone to the trouble of translating it for everyone, and it makes a hell of a lot more sense than the google translation someone else posted, so c'mon, spread the love (mod points) around, people.
Curiosity was framed. Ignorance killed the cat.
Have you stopped squatting on censorware.org yet?
"Porc Américain".
Of course, that's just a guess.
Maybe you can explain why other countries are to be prevented from making weapons of mass destruction, while the USA can not only have those, but even can develop them further?
The difference cannot be in the IQ of their leaders...
