Why is the shit separated from the piss? Is it because the piss will just fly all over the place due to the lack of gravity? If that's the case, I hope nobody has diarrhea:)
I've seen circular referencing occur many times on Wikipedia, often by complete accident. If journalists actually gave their own sources when writing articles, it would be much less of a problem. Of course they will never do that, as then it would be revealed that they themselves don't bother fact-checking at all.
In order to sign up for the 'Do Not Track' registry, you'll need to provide your name, address, phone number, SSN, mother's maiden name, and the names of all the porn sites you regularly visit. Without this information, we cannot guarantee your privacy.
I can't believe they wasted taxpayer money on this. Of course people would fall for this scam. What's the point? The result was entirely expected. Social engineering works.
The popular T.V. Show NUMB3RS had an episode ("Prime Suspect") in which criminals kidnapped a child and demanded as ransom a possible proof of the Riemann Hypothesis from a mathematician. The proof would be used to steal interest rates from an encrypted website.
Sounds like it was just some (persistent) XSS hole in phpBB that allowed the attackers to post javascript. The social engineering would come in later, obviously.
Maybe they're afraid that they won't be able to keep tabs on the astronauts in space? What's to prevent British astronauts from putting some duct tape over the cameras and engaging in terrorism?!
"GameSpot's cheat site" is called GameFAQs. The poll wasn't "hacked" - an employee apparently created it as a joke and let it go up on the site for 45 minutes, either intentionally or accidentally (the official story from Allen Tyner, the GameFAQs editor, was that it was accidental).
According to the Joint Space Operations Center at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, the commercial communication satellite Orbcomm FM 36 maneuvered to avoid passing within about 123 feet of the debris field on April 6. A NASA Earth observation satellite Terra was moved June 22 to avoid coming within about 90 feet of the debris.
Before anyone starts discussing the 2/500 statistic, remember that the interview method - asking an auditorium of college students to raise their hand - is not the best way to get a truthful response. The percentage of people who believe that downloading a movie/album illegally is wrong is probably much higher.

Surely you can't be serious.

Old "news" written in the third person.

Looks like the summary is the only place where femtosecond is mentioned. The actual article has it right.

What's next, looking for leaks in a sieve?

Fascinating!

This was leaked at least 4 years ago.
Everyone knows that the final boss is supposed to have three forms. We're not even halfway through the battle yet.
Personally, I'm expecting some sort of cyborg octopus as SCO's final form. 9999 HP? You better believe it.

The submitter wanted to know how to do this on XP! You removed his question! Now how is he going to pirate an OS that was released 7 years ago?
Outsourcing the software development to Mexico was a terrible idea.

4chan isn't mentioned in the Wikinews article at all. Wikinews, and every other outlet reporting this story, is a fucking joke.

If the documents literally contained explosives, there would probably be a better chance of the government actually releasing them.
RTFA.
