I gathered this much from dabbling in string theory, that it presents a bunch of formulae linking the fundamental forces that requires 9 (or 10 or 11 or 13 etc.) variables to work. These variables are then each given a dimension so they can be used in a handy matrix form. It seems this mathematical notion of dimension has little to do with spatial or temporal dimensions, its more just a convenient way to represent the maths. As such, the concept of 'tiny dimensions' only makes sense in an allegorical way. It seems that time permeates space, and seems separate, but Einstein saw that the two were linked, that spatial displacement can distort time. I suppose this could be true of higher, tiny dimensions yet it is much more feasible that four dimensional spacetime needs ~11 parameters to function, and the whole thing is simply a bad analogy.
What if the guy who wrote it is dead already? Face it, this thing is alive. There must be an alternative solution. Perhaps a seti@home style initiative that can match the capabilities of the botnet. Fighting fire with fire so to speak.
You need to be very close to the exchange to ever see 25mbps, a more realistic average is 8-10mbps, and you have to be damn unlucky to be stuck at 1mbps. So it is more like a 20x improvement. Still, why they don't just go with fibre optic is beyond me.
Ironically, the storm worm is one of the few idiot proof pieces of software floating around. It requires absolutely no skill on the part of the user to get the job done, hell a certain level of incompetence is a benefit. Perhaps this is the key to making linux user friendly - just rewrite it as a worm!
FUD is a perfectly doubleplusgood acronym. This little ploy of Microsofts is 100% fear, uncertainty and doubt. I'll spell it out, there is no need to indemnify Linux users from Microsofts patent trolling, because the simple fact is IBM et al. will have a field day if Microsoft ever follows through. Ergo, they are selling a load of hot air and the only reason people are buying into it are the idle threats Microsoft is using to spread FUD. Really fuddy FUD, too.
He's jacking off in the privacy of his own porn viewing habitat. If he was jacking off in public, you might have a point that he lacks self control. As it stands, he has perfect control over his sexual desires, he just chooses to indulge them rather than repress them. So far from lacking it, I gather he has quite a bit of skill in 'self-control'.
Yep, this new fangled wireless technology is bound to take off soon. If only it was invented, say 100 years back so we could have some time to accommodate it into our technology.
We all know the Mayan long cycle is coming to a close as we realign with the galactic core ushering us into the dawn of the age of Aquarius. The Rapture is coming, but who will be the Antichrist come 2012? As always, the answer has been hidden in plain view.
Let us take the name

We rearrange the letters and the truth comes to light!
Rapid hell Antichrist demon, no rly
We further rearrange these letters to complete the damming message:
Antichrist lol no rly I'd dampen her
Ignore the evidence at your own peril. Vote Ron Paul!

Who is John Conner?
Having police confiscate all computers running malware... well that's one way to get Linux on the desktop!
Though you are modded funny, this is likely the only explanation that would work on PHBs.

Holding your breath is now forbidden. You are free to continue breathing, loyal citizen.
Hey look, at least they linked to an actual fucking article which is pretty damn good by /. editor standards.

Its more like: SS routinely monitors all comunications. SS owns massive voice matching software. SS is a dodgy name. SS have flagged this post for saying too much. They perfected these methods in the Cold war to use against the Russians, now it's time to implement some Homeland Security, Cold War style.
They have articles now? I thought they just linked to blog drivel and wikipedia.
Ever seen a haze of smog enveloping a city? I don't think a few hundred metres would make much difference to exposure of airborne lead particles.

So that's what all the latency issues are, Vista's just checking if you need reactivation every few milliseconds.
Well, you still have the choice to brush up your resume before the company collapses thanks to piss poor IT management.
You'll become enlightened to the fact that that cracks have legitimate purposes too.
Don't know about the flying car, but here's an ultralight helicopter.

In the red corner, weighing in at 32 pounds, he's the green machine, the beatnik who wont quit, the artist of alarmist, it's the Vegan Warrior!
And in the blue corner, weighing in at 400 pounds, it's the executive with a directive, when he's not pollutin' he's retributin', Mac the Litigator!
LET'S GET RRREADY TO RRRRRRRUUUMBLE!!
I guess we'll just fall back to 'Nerd' then. It'll be a smooth transition.
Indeed, it's the same reason you can find CDs and DVDs at libraries. GP is stuck in the past.
