Cops in Seattle are constantly driving the wrong way down a one-way road to get in to their parking lot (because they don't want to drive around the other, legal way). And when I say constantly, I mean hundreds of times a day.
But they're nowhere near as bad as Seattle's (well KC Metro anyways) bus drivers - running red lights, blocking intersections, etc.
Someone was doing that once, but I don't think I've seen it since. Probably because when the site "comes back", he tries to sell Amazon books on it or something? I dunno.
For me it's more the fact that I can use more than one service to chat than the lack of ads, by a long shot. I can't run MSN messenger at work (no Windows), but I know people on that net, along with people on Yahoo.
So for me the feature attraction list goes like:
1) I can run the program at work. 2) I can chat with people on MSN and Yahoo at the same time, with the same program. 3) Automatic low-impact(CPU) spellcheck (in GAIM) 4) No ads, although I would pay a few bucks a month/year for something like this, too.
Actual unique ids. IRC never was consistent on this. IM, however, is. For Yahoo, I know that joebobfrank is ALWAYS the same person (barring actual hacking), or for MSN I know that joebobfrank@msn.com is the same person (same caveat). Most IRC networks don't require registration or passwords, and thus miss out big time.
But only because Microsoft is big on "no disclosure", instead of the superior "full disclosure" method of distributing security information. MS feels better being able to suppress bug announcements, indefinitely, until they think it's appropriate to issue a patch. Which is why I could never use an MS OS and expect security...
I've been very impressed with the aftermarket for Gameboy products. Each aftermarket component I've bought for my GBA SP has been under $10 - headphones + adapter ($7), 3-cartridge adapter w/ extra size grips ($9.99), USB power adapter (couple bucks), car power adapter (couple bucks).
I know they're not "official", but they all work just fine. Let's hope Sony doesn't stifle that too much.
Better yet, try playing any fighting game that requires combos with a Nintendo/Logitech style d-pad. It's really, really tough to get the precision right.
You're right! I remember when those FCC rules were on the ballot a few years back and I was thinking to myself, "man, I really should pick yes or no here, but.. I don't know. I'll leave it blank." Damn!
Heh, I'll read whatever documentation is available to advise me on what software I should and shouldn't use. Given that most security problems are with people rather than software, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect documentation to be kept in sync with software.
I know this isn't a man page or anything, but it's also not confidence-inspiring.
Imagine if you just asked the user, and then offered them a tool to change their password after you were done.
I sniff traffic all the time, and I look around at files all the time - it's my job. I do avoid mail spools, except for when users need virusus cleared out (because their braindead anti-virus program aborts the POP3 connection upon reaching a virus), but that's it. I'd just end up frustrating the entire userbase if I refused to help.
The gameplay was very fun, and I just wish there was more of it. The non-interactive 40 minutes of story between every few blocks of actual gameplay was, at best, frustrating.
I do enjoy books, and I do enjoy movies, but I didn't enjoy the crossbreed quite as much.
lsh is far from finished; don't expect these snapshots to compile or work, and even if they appear to work, beware that lsh currently does *NOT* provide any security at all.
Indeed. haha. Here's the list from what I can guess.
#1 - Black and White #2 - Metal Gear Solid 2 #3 - Matrix Reloaded #4 - ? #5 - Quake3 mod? #6 - ? I remember seeing the ads for this one though. #7 - Final Fantasy 7 #8 - Tomb Raider (probably most recent) #9 - Donkey Kong Country #10 - Halo #11 - ? #12 - Halflife mod? #13 - ? I remember this one too, don't remember name #14 - SimCity? Er I mean Dead or Alive 3 #15 - ? #16 - Mortal Kombat #17 - ? Max Payne maybe? I dunno #18 - ? Alice #19 - ? #20 - ? Everquest? Heheh. Nah..
A top-down driving game with a "free" world like GTA3 has would just not be as interesting as a 3D world, IMO.
One could argue that the best gaming is text gaming, because you have to use your imagination for everything. 3D gaming gives you a lot so you don't have to use as much imagination. 2D just gives you less to work with, and you can't really "imagine" up the difference.
Sorry if that rambling didn't make sense, where's my coffe
I'd be for that. I consider the amount of value I get out of every gallon of gas to be extreme, and I feel I'm paying less than what I'm getting, by far.
I mean, how else am I going to go 200 miles, with arbitrary stops, for $25? It's really amazing.
One of the problems with gas prices here in the US is the government subsidies. I'm not talking about direct money, but how many wars have been paid for by everyone to go to war to keep our gas prices low and alternatives out of the market? If we started counting defense-of-oil-interests in the cost of oil, I think we'd start to see some serious alternatives on the market.
describes my exact situation. It's frustrating as all hell, but I've come to terms with it by just accepting I can't get more than 200 miles out of the tank. (I ignore the E-F indicator entirely, it's useless now.)

Because rather than own up to responsibility, they prefer to get /. users to subscribe so that they can get in pre-/. effect.
Of course, they could at least link to Google caches of the sites after they give the subscribers their taste..

fucking convince slashdot to fucking cache sites.

Btw, best.com ruled. Loved that company. Shame what happened with the whole Hiway+Verio thing...

That doesn't sound like a very good idea:

Because otherwise all of the e-mail sent to misspelt domains would sit in mail queues for X days, doing significant damage to the Internet.
I mean, more damage than Verisign has already done over the years.
Indeed. haha. Here's the list from what I can guess.
#1 - Black and White
#2 - Metal Gear Solid 2
#3 - Matrix Reloaded
#4 - ?

#16 - Mortal Kombat

#18 - ? Alice
#19 - ?

I'm sure plenty of folks can fill in the blanks..

They do that now - at least, I've never heard of a doctor with an encrypted phone line, or fax line.
My brain is breaking federal law. Someone please quick call TIPS! My name is ..
Perhaps the current "Flash Mob" trend can be expanded to phones.
I'd be for that. I consider the amount of value I get out of every gallon of gas to be extreme, and I feel I'm paying less than what I'm getting, by far.

That's a mighty SUV-sized link there. Here, let me hybridize it up a bit for ya.
