Looking Back On Looking Forward
da6d writes "The Independent Online Edition has an article on the release of interviews Stanley Kubrick conducted of numerous prominent scientific minds of the day in preparation for the movie 2001. The topic of the interviews: extra-terrestrial intelligence. The transcripts of the interviews are due for release in book form next month. The actual footage of the interviews seems to have been swallowed by time." From the article: "Some of the interviewees have looked back at their original comments. Professor Good stood by his, including his suggestion that computers might have personality traits: 'My Windows 98 computer tells lies and often forces me to shut down improperly. Such behaviour in a human would be called neurotic.'"

My girlfriend tells lies and often forces me to go to bed without sex. Such behaviour in a computer would be called buggy.
Try out fish, the friendly interactive shell.
You seem to be forgetting Me, much like MS would like to forget Me.

Have you tried having intercourse with her while she sleeps?
In computer terms that would be called: unauthorized access.
You can't handle the truth.
Have you tried having intercourse with her while she sleeps?
If you tried such acts you would recieve a 403 Forbidden error.
"Have you tried having intercourse with her while she sleeps?"
Not cool. I have two seriously messed up friends who have suffered greatly because of rape. Even if your statement was meant as a joke, you shouldn't have posted it, and if it was anything resembling a serious suggestion, I'd recommend that you seek some serious psychiatric help.
On second thought, do so anyway. You obviously need it. >:(
It's only unauthorized if you put it up her butt. - in computer terms that is called a Backdoor Trojan/Virus of some sort.
You can't handle the truth.
