    Not ssh, but the windows "shutdown" command allows you to specify the hostname of a remote machine to shut down. After that, your only problem is making authentication work.

    After we've executed all of the bullies, lets move onto all of the smelly kids. After that, maybe the ones that start puberty early.

    For the same reason that we drink bottled Hydrogen2Oxygen (or Hydrogen Hydrogen Oxygen, so as to not offend Hydrogen) and run GNU/Mozilla/OpenOffice.org/Nvidia/Google/KDE/Linux on our computers.

    You can't just block the emails. What we need is a separate but equal email system for them to use. We can just shunt all of the non-white, non-American email onto it.

    While we're at it, why not bar blacks from entering your convenience store.
    Let's block people with Arab-sounding names or skin tones from flying.
    White middle-aged males need to be monitored, since so many of them are serial killers.

  17. Re:Don't Forget Our Pollution Exports on China Hits Back At Google · · Score: 1

    I don't often shop at Walmart, at least in part because the nearest one to my house is about 25 miles away. However, it's surprising just how much US-made stuff I notice on the shelves when I do go there.

    Thank you. Most of the Walmart bashers fail to notice that Walmart's store brand (Great Value) is all made in the US.

    Now, I don't have a problem with bashing Wally World, but please do it honestly. I try to shop elsewhere because of the soul crushing depression that hangs in the air there.

    I'm not an expert with LOLCODE, but I've seen an image macro of a cat or two. I'm thinking that the visible keyword probably has a counterpart named after, or is at least a reference to, the "invisible" meme.

    On top of that, look at the blue snap-in parts. This is a Dell. Hardly a single screw to bother with in there even if he did it from individual parts. Motherboard, drives, fan, even the CPU in many cases, just snaps in place.

    Wow. I've never read the original. Thanks for linking me. Although I'm excited that Wells thought of this, I think I was happier thinking it was handwaved. Being invisible except for the lens looks like a cop out. I guess it's better to handwave and remain accurate than handwave and break physics more than necessary. :)

    As long as we're OT, I recently read Omnilingual on Project Gutenberg and I recommend it as a nice sci-fi short about learning the language of ancient Martians without any common translation to start from.
