Stoobalou contributes a link to this story at Thinq.co.uk, from which he excerpts: "Torrent-tracking site The Pirate Bay is currently unavailable as reports come in of co-ordinated police raids against file sharers across Europe. Police in up to 14 countries carried out raids against suspected file-sharing servers this morning. According to file-sharing news site TorrentFreak, the bulk of police action seems to have taken place in Sweden. Swedish Internet service provider ISP, which hosts both The Pirate Bay and whistle-blowing site WikiLeaks, earlier denied rumours of a police raid, saying that officers had visited them to ask questions over two suspect IP addresses, and that no computers or other goods had been seized."

Instead of dupes, ./ are now reporting the future
My current directory is reporting the future?! I can't believe it! My terminal just simply started spitting out all sorts of useful advice above events that haven't happened yet. I performed the pwd command to figure out which magical directory I had entered, but then my computer imploded! I didn't have a chance to copy the terminal output to my USB drive. Now I'll never be able to know what happens in the future!
