Not to worry Bush will likely decide that it's time to "liberate" India. Of course the majority of jobs at the beginning will only be for the welfare-state they call "The Military"
Not a real quote from any person but the whole "I paid $29.95.." line is a crock.
"I spent $29.95 on Kazaa and thought I could download thousands of dollars of CDs, movies,
software and pr0n." Riiiight.. (Feigning) ignorance is not a defense. From

Remember that your employer does not speak for you.
Another relatively uninteresting open letter, however this part of the submission caught my
eye:
chrisd notes that his company is making SCO employees unhireable.
[from that link]: Any resumes which include the Santa Cruz Operation after May of 2003
will be immediately deleted as well.
That is truly childish. The real assholes
at SCO are the suits and money-grubbing lawyers responsible for this charade. A code monkey
in the trenches who needs a job to pay the bills isn't necessarily an enemy of open source.
Guilt by association is a slippery slope, remember Joe McCarthy?
I think you can't come to terms with the fact that most people supported the war...
So? Most people used to support slavery. (I know that's a strawman):) When your proud army finds all the WMD that George and Tony lied about, then you can lecture me.
Unfortunately the vast majority of people out there get their news from the talking-heads on television. These kinds of stories will never be seen on mainstream media (ala CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, et al) as long as they are owned by monolithic corporations with their sole interest being profit.
The brain-dead sheep of the world watch their TV and are fed what the advertisers want: "Don't question the war in Iraq, buy a Swiffer WetJet!"
Well, the person quoted works for SOFTswitch, the manufacturer of the fabric. I don't doubt they'll come up with a proprietary detergent needed to clean their fabrics without harm.
She has a vested interest in making this fabric's future sound inevitable. Certainly it is coming but consider the source when reading fawning quotes.
She says that in ten years, 20% of our clothes will incorporate some kind of electronic
components.
Unless she's including RFID tags, that 20% figure sounds far too
high. I can't believe that one-fifth of socks, pants, underwear, shirts, etc will contain
electronic components in 10 short years.
Also, how will all these clothes be cleaned?
Will they be safe to throw in our 2003 "stone age" washing machines when 2013 rolls around?
Yeah I thought of that after submitting. That's for Sendmail 8.ish and goes in the sendmail.mc file. Please don't get going on "(Postfix|QMail) r0x0r5, 5endm41l sux0r5".:)
I used the Osirusoft lists for a good while. They helped me reject more spam than you can shake a stick at. I don't care about the guy's personality that runs the show (Joe), I just like his product. Just as I like OpenBSD.;)
1- The RIAA can tell what is popular via a digital pulse on the wrist of P2P users. 2- The RIAA pushes stations to play songs that are popular downloads. 3- The RIAA members get listeners in cars and offices. 4- The RIAA members sell more discs. 5- The RIAA sues 12 year olds and tries to slash the wrist mentioned in 1 above.
53x? I have an Intel QX3 USB microscope which goes to 200x.
In the name of science (yeah right), I used it to look at a
Biore strip fresh from my nose. I didn't clean my nose for a while in preparation for this advancement
of knowledge and the results are worth it.
I know many people that make some decent coin but hate their jobs. I make a nice salary and love my job. I wouldn't consider leaving (maybe for a good 1/3 increase in the cash and the same freedoms I have here).
The survey should ask more than just income: the real question is: are you happy at your job and content with your income?
Slashdot Mirror
Some poor admin at Netcraft is 'tail -f'ing the logfile and thinking "Holy moly, Slashdot must have run a story on 'Microsoft-Antitrust.gov'.."
Holy moly.. and I thought I needed more tinfoil on my hat.. ;)
NetBSD runs on the PS2 and has for some time. Too bad it's dying.

Because Microsoft wouldn't know an RFC if it fell on Bill Gates' head.
Outlook and Exchange use TCP/135 to communicate. Not everyone uses a VPN to read their Exchange-served email when remote you know.
Today's
Microsoft is poo. Of course you already knew that.
SCO are lying, thieving gypsies. You already knew that too.
Spammers are poo AND lying, thieving gypsies. Duh.
Cubism is leet, imagine a beowulf of those!
Java Web Services in a Nutshell is cool. Real geeks measure their O'Reilly books by the foot, not the title.
RIAA uses P2P stats but cornholes 12 year old girls.
Adrian Lamo surrended. Free Kev^H^H^HAdrian!
Film scanners are cool.. but who, other than professionals, use film?
SAGE confirms it, you make less than you should.
Gnome 2.4 is leet. It even works on *BSD (which is dying)
Hahaha! Very funny, short and with a good punch at the end. Cheers!

Yup, and when we play "Compare the Dinkies" in the junior high school washroom I always win. Likely because I'm 37 years old..
Bah to that.

You can filter at the server end based on subject:Of course if you don't run your own server, you're SOL.
You should jump to conclusions
1- The RIAA can tell what is popular via a digital pulse on the wrist of P2P users.
2- The RIAA pushes stations to play songs that are popular downloads.
3- The RIAA members get listeners in cars and offices.
4- The RIAA members sell more discs.
5- The RIAA sues 12 year olds and tries to slash the wrist mentioned in 1 above.
No wonder there's no:
6- PROFIT!
Start printing stickers that say "Adrian" which you can apply over the word "Kevin"..
The wings are not the hairiest thing on a bee.
True, but have you ever tried to spread those little legs?
