Heh...and I have acid reflex. Join the family. I wonder if the hardcore Mexicans get any of these types of diseases, or is it just for us wussy Americans.
I have that same problem with ACLU. I respect them as an organization, and I have my card to flash around, but I don't appreciate the political leftist snail mail I get almost every day. From anti-death-penality groups to NOW (nope, not a chick), and they seem to have the same writer for all of them. (I notice that every single one has the phrase "(over...)" in the exact same way and font.)
I have my card, but they have enough money if they are going to sell my address. The EFF, on the other hand, still needs money, and they don't sell anything to me. In fact, for my $65 donation, I received a EFF t-shift, and a tax rebate for my donation. (ACLU was not tax deductable.)
The RC56 had a point: to prove to the government that 56-bit keys are insecure. After I calculated the odds for the RC64, I bailed out. After that, there was no point. With the results of the RC56, I can simply multiply the number by 256. Honestly, I was surprised that they even finished the RC64 challenge; it only took them about 3 years.
Now, I'm even more surprised that they are stupid enough to take the RC72 challenge. 3*256 years? Yeah, technology will speed that up, but it'll still take at least 10-20 years to crack that key. Hopefully, the futility will hit them eventually, and do something more productive, like solving mathematic puzzles, etc.
I'm not really blaming anybody or anything, but just defending the (great?) grandparent poster that you don't have to be a girly girl to dislike beer. And actually, I love spicy food, sweet/cream coffee, and chocolate. But, you're right, I just don't like the taste of hops.
If you want to question my abilities as a man with drinking beer, I'll question your abilities as a man with eating spicy food. (Habanaros? Pssshaw.)
Sorry, but I've tried beer. I've tried LOTS OF BEER. Every time I see somebody drinking a new beer, I get a taste of it. It all sucks. It all has that bitter beer taste, even the ones that advertise that they don't give you "Bitter Beer Face". Thus, I usually stick with hard alcohol. (At least I don't have to drink 64oz of piss, just to get drunk.)
The Smirnoff (sp!) Ice isn't too bad. Zima sucks, but the Ice actually tastes decent.

No, he doesn't do everything, but he does WRITE episodes, which is the whole comedy aspect of the show.
Fair, maybe...but cell phone companies aren't designed around "fair" business models. See, they get a perverse joy in double-charging you for both outgoing and incoming calls, just like (most) banks have a perverse joy in double-charging you for withdrawing at a foreign ATM machines (from the ATM itself, and your bank). (Yes, you already paid $1.50 for getting cash out of your account, but now the bank wants to punish you with a $2.00 charge as well.)
My company has an option for unlimited incoming calls, and my bank doesn't charge me for using foreign ATMs.
I think they are trying to promote IMAX as a format as a whole. The IMAX is a great --IDEA--, but it is EXTREMELY underused. Big movies don't get into the action, and you're left with dumb movies about fishes and space.
Now, the brothers have given IMAX a chance to showcase the biggest action movie to date and to compete with the theatres. It's their way of thanking IMAX for their innovative format, and giving them the push they need to get other Hollywood films to possibly (and in the far future) to release IMAX-only films (which are on par with the regular theatre movies).
Slashdot Mirror
I was able to replace most of the stuff, such as a "ls" command with color. However, certain utils, such as "ps", I couldn't find replacements for.
In any case, that one Sun box kicked the bucket, so I'm not to worried about it anymore, but I was busy trying to transform Solaris into GNU/Solaris.
If you can burn everything onto an MP3 CD, where is the DRM? Built-into the MP3? Just on the non-MP3 files? Why bother, and just use MP3s?
My funny scores are set to +2 in my preferences. I like humor.
I could follow this up with an "In Soviet Russia" joke, but that would just be too easy.
That's akin to singing "Look on the Bright Side of Life" while hanging on a cross.
Well, SCO has a problem with that "bragging" thing.
+1, Informative.
Considering a good portion of Slashdotters don't even bother to RTFA, it's a good idea for the article to be at the top of the comments, anyway.
What's wrong with xinetd? It's in hundreds of distros, so obviously nobody has a need to replace it.
Seems strange that this crew of 30+ writers have the same level of comedy.

Huh? You're going to have to explain that one a bit better. I don't quite understand the connection.

That'd be like suing Microsoft for outlook viruses
Oh, we can only dream...

Sorry, I prefer my DNS server package to include JUST the DNS server package, instead of trying to replace my OS with his own distro of network crap.

I call that a bug in the Slashdot code. Very annoying, too. Replies to comments below your threshold should also be hidden.

Mod this parent up. I want somebody to start this business. (IANAL, otherwise, I might try it myself...)

They get paid $5.75 an hour. Just give them a few bucks as a bribe.
Wow...I forgotten about that. Wasn't he the taxi driver?
