Let's apply some logic here.
Hawaii is a (sunlight-lover's) paradise.
Sunlight causes tans.
Slashdotters are, pardon the euphemism, not tan.
Ergo, no Slashdotters live in Hawaii.
You are correct. However, the probability that the script comes up with 50 domains that start with a hypen is quite low. When I ran it, one of the URLs that got queried was "Aa.com" which of course, is American Airlines' domain. The script generates a completely random length string, which is what is desirable in this situation.
#!/bin/bash for i in `seq 1 50`; do length=$(tr -cd [:digit:] </dev/urandom | head -c 2) domain=$(tr -cd a-zA-Z0-9\- </dev/urandom | head -c $length) echo "NSI will register $domain.com shortly" whois -h whois.networksolutions.com "$domain.com" done
Buy a 'small business' laptop from Dell. It's clear that Dell only forces people into the various groups (home, business, small business, etc.) to obfuscate their marketing strategy.
Hey, fuck you buddy. The former CTO of the OLPC, Mary Lou Jepsen, created the innovative display technology of the XO laptop. Why must "geek" and "woman" be mutually exclusive to you?
Last year it was C and EasyC (a scripting language for programmer-deficient teams [usually the new ones that have more than enough to worry about like funding, etc.]). You can use any tools, though a lot of the teams used MPLAB. I used vim, make, mcc (the Microchip compiler), and the ifiloader for Linux.
Why mention your firm if you don't mean to shamelessly advertise for them?
Besides, verifying that you are indeed a patent lawyer is an extra step that most non-RTFA'ing Slashdot visitors would never dream of performing. So cut the unneeded disclaimers.
Hehe, good to see others saw this as an influential story of the day. However, I have a question that perhaps others can answer. What does the diagram actually work out? Listing 1. 25-Pin NULL modem cabling
2 3 Transmit Data 3 2 Receive Data 4 5 Request to Send 5 4 Clear to Send 6 20 Data Set Ready and Carrier Detect 7 7 Signal Ground 20 6 Data Terminal Ready
What does that mean? I thought serial -> serial is merely a connection. Do I have to solder something?
I saw this Slashdot headline and immediately headed there to check up on my honeypot, but noticed the site was down.
Just a few days ago, it was "down for maintenence."
If this really is what spammers are taking their revenge out on, then how can we ensure that upstanding members of the Internet community are protected?

Anecdotal evidence or do you have something more substantial?
Firefox 3.0 Beta 2 does not support Acid 2. Here's proof (tested on an i686 machine).

They say they are using 8 Mhz processors, but they actually mean 9 Mhz!
OMG NO WAI
Better change the Slashdot title as well!
Don't use the term "American" in place of "white."
Somewhat tangentially, what happened to Project Honeypot?
I saw this Slashdot headline and immediately headed there to check up on my honeypot, but noticed the site was down. Just a few days ago, it was "down for maintenence."
