If a website actually made a company thousands or millions per day, then they should be able to afford to setup multiple dedicated servers and pay an admin or two to keep them up.
I work for a company where a day of downtime costs a thousand dollars roughly. That doesn't mean the company is necessarily profitable because many bills need to be paid. Multiple servers and extra admins would put us in the red, but that doesn't mean that the losses aren't real.
you know what would really suck? would be to die on mars or something and find that there really is an afterlife and reincarnation and stuff, but it depends on what planet (or other part of the universe) you die on. so like, you have to come back as a friggin alien bacteria or sommething.
man that would suck. or how about dieing in a black hole ?! your soul's ass would be like, all stuck up in there forever. because it wouldn't be able to escape the grabitration becaause of physics and whatnot. I think I'll die on earth and not have to worry about that kind of shiat.
you don't have to open a separate search window, you just have to hit a tab. the parent's way involved a separate dos window so it's pretty clear you need a cluebat upside the head.
I don't go to a museum and expect to see black bars on all the naked statues and paintings, do I? no but you don't expect to see statues giving blowjobs either
1) linux is for people who don't ever want to spend money on anything no matter how much it hurts. 2) windows is for people who are willing to pay a little to avoid the pain of linux. but not a fortune (also pirates) 3) mac is for people who want to spend as much as possible for some reason.
if the economy suffers, or there's a crackdown on piracy expect more linux users.if there's an economic boon expect more mac users. otherwise expect things to stay the same.
Your anti-hoax [badastronomy.com] site says 6% of americans believe it. I think that's a lot;)
the problem with the fake moon landing conspiracy is that, unlike most conspiracy theories, it passes occam's razor. therefore it's not hard to believe. personally I don't care one way or the other.
How does the password suggest she knew more? because if she's aware that this is the sixth time she's done it, and the passwords started at zion0, zion0101 would be the sixth iteration's password (binarily speaking)
I was in walmart the other day and I asked the woman at the cashier for directions to the monkey porn section. she just gave me a dirty look. I'll take my business elsewhere, thank you.

it's harder to acquire a taste for ink than for champagne, but once you do...
you are one classy motherfucker.
and that that increase could put a man on mars in 10 years, this couldn't be a bad thing.
oh yeah lets put a woman on venus while we're at it.

so put up a firewall and make a backup, doofus!
one dictionary definition of irony is when something unexpected happens. therefore all these situations apply.
i'm sure it really keeps her up at night knowing how low an opinion some creepy guy who lives in his parents' basement has of her.
i just hope that huge pile of cash is some consolation.
was that ironic?

In all likelyhood all this will do is force him to reconsider the decision about bigger being better as noted in all the spam he is ignoring
I think I would rather have a larger penis than a smaller computer.
Besides, if my penis were larger I think my computer would look smaller.
woo!

mooove.
hit the search button in explorer.

was that so hard?

that's my opinion and I stand by it.
imagine how much people would be willing to pay for a sticker that let them drive as fast as they want
and drink beers while doing so.

so what if I'm in the market for only the last 5 seconds of each track? can I get them for 2 cents?
he should be made to walk the plank.
or in this case the butt plank.
Can someone please explain to me how it is possible to mod comments redundant that concern themselves with the redundancy of the topic?
I personally find the overmoderation of this topic more chilling than whatever the story was about (I forget).
Dupes should be allowed to be successfully threadjacked in my opinion.

Yep that's what I thought, pure troll without a single tech post demonstrating ownereship or care of anything.
what's your point?
How does the password suggest she knew more?
because if she's aware that this is the sixth time she's done it, and the passwords started at zion0, zion0101 would be the sixth iteration's password (binarily speaking)
Personally I think Trinity is an agent and the outside world is another Matrix, but we'll just have to wait and see
Trinity can't be an agent because agents can't leave the matrix. the password she used (zion0101) suggests she knows more than the others though.
does this mean /. will stop posting sco stories on saturday? yay!
So that's the secret of Slashdot spelling...
slashdot should be so lucky as to have editors with opposable thumbs.
