Not a physicist myself, I am looking forward to some results from that machine. And I am really sorry for the scientist that they cannot play with their new toy. The guys are so curious and I understand how much they want to see what will happen.
boss: Joyce, could you copy the April charts for our partners, they'll come in a few...... assistant: Hi, you want those charts for April, yes? partners: Yes, if you'd be so kind, we've got a blank disk here. assistant: But of course! Puts the floppy into the drive and: # mkfs -t vfat -c/dev/fd0h1440 # mount -t vfat -o iocharset=iso8859-2,codepage=852/dev/fd0/mnt/floppy # find / -noleaf -type f -name charts_April.[a-zA-Z] -exec cp '{ }'/mnt/floppy \; # ls -la/mnt/floppy/Wyniki_KwiecieÅ.[a-z][A-Z] && sync && sleep 3 Removes the floppy and passes it to the partners. partners: Holy fuck! assistant: Oh, dear, I forgot to unmount again.
I once made my friends' jaws hit the floor when I burned a cd for them - from console.
And once I had this strange feeling that something was wrong with the CD drive of a machine I was working at in the console until I realized I was opening and closing the CD tray on a machine in another room!
I thought about X-COM Terror From the Deep. First Rosewell, then we sent probes to Mars. Now there is Gwoba Woba and methane starts coming out from the ocean bed. With the increased drilling for fossil fuels we might hit some nasty water creatures. And they might be mad the shrooms are killing the little amphibian overlord ambassadors on the surface.
I think we really need these now:
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. — I. Asimov
The parties agree that the only evidence of actual dissemination of copyrighted works was that Plaintiffs' agent, MediaSentry, copied songs. Plaintiffs argue that even if distribution requires an actual transfer, the trial evidence established transfers of copyrighted works to MediaSentry. Thomas retorts that dissemination to an investigator acting as an agent for the copyright owner cannot constitute infringement.
"It is well–established that the lawful owner of a copyright cannot infringe its own copyright."

If you can't find and login then obscurity does equal security.
If a tree fell and there was nobody in the forest to hear it, would it still make a sound?
How about a HTMLTidy module to the existing servers?

Let me google that for you.... Oh! Here it is!
We do what we must because... we can
This is a perfect example of the best that America has to offer.
The people who built these rovers were not all "American."
Because it works. ;)
Ever heard of OLPC project? Heeere's the result!
What exactly is teh License? Wkipedia says "Proprietary."
Dune had a metric crapload of made up words too.
Where? Which? Who?
IIRC it had a glossary but most of these words were somewhat self-explanatory. Like plasteel, carryall, lasgun or whatever.
And they were quite necessary, because they described something unique, not some equivalents of Earth's everyday stuff.
Your mother.
What I hate about them most is their labeling the file types in windows: "Adobe PDF, Adobe SVG, Adobe PNG". WHAT THE FUCK! This should be prosecuted.
Of course, I blew it at the translation, never mind :P

Puts the floppy into the drive and:

Removes the floppy and passes it to the partners.

USELESS!? Try it in conjunction with a killap like cowsay and fortunes!

Ok. Nevermind. Need some sleep.

The right to read.
Good thing there wasn't another attempt, otherwise the counter would've overflowed.

... AND it's freaking spelled ATHEIST, from greek theos - god and "a" - negating prefix.
Will theists EVER learn? Anything apart from what they read from their "holy *cough*crap*cough* books"?
But Athiests (i.e. Russia, China) sure have killed a lot without any religious text.
You forgot to stress their atheism was not the incentive for the killing they did (unless you can prove otherwise).
