I tried using a wok for a satellite dish before, but the only channel I could get was the Food Network. Seriously, pirating satellite TV is bad, m'kay.
I'm fairly confident that everyone is aware of breast cancer. We certainly get it thrust in our faces enough. They're basically saying that people in general, and women in particular, are essentially stupid and ignorant and have to be reminded all the time of things they need to take care of like regular breast exams. If this is indeed an issue, they should look at the real reasons why people aren't getting regular breast exams (costs, lack of insurance, etc.) instead of just blindly assuming that people are stupid.
I don't know what it is about the less common operating systems, but they seem to attract the asses. (Free/Open/DietBSD etc. seem to be immune to this, not sure why.)
Nobody wants to talk about *BSD, there's nothing wrong with it. 8)

Here's an example of how S/MIME certificates can be easily spoofed, and how both Outlook and Apple's Mail.app happily accepts them as valid. Want more trustworthy certs? Expect to pay out the nose.
Does anyone really think that Microsoft would resist taking advantage of an open source Intel-based kernel if it could help them solve the mountain of problems under which Windows is buried?
FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD... Microsoft can do that now, and some would say they already have *cough*TCP/IP*cough*.
Only their line of Digital Audio Players work with Mac OS 9 or X, and their largest capacity model has only 1G. That only holds about 240 MP3 songs. Their whole Sansa line requires XP and WMP 10, and they have larger capacities.
Plain text. There's really nothing in Rich Text or HTML emails that cannot be communicated in plain text. Documents currently being attached to emails can be sent via web services or through online file-sharing sites now popping up.
Take away attachments, bye bye viruses. Take away Rich Text and HTML, bye bye more viruses and most phishing schemes.
It will not get rid of spam, unfortunately. People not responding to it will.
The Community is too dense to grasp that Java source code has been available for years, no matter how many times it's explained to them
Not really. It may have been available, but that doesn't necessarily mean you can do anything with it. You can't modify it. You can't fix bugs in it. You can't compile it. You can't use anything from it in your own code. So what good is it. It's like someone giving you an ice cream cone and telling you that you can't eat it. Better to get a copy of the Java Language Spec and/or VM Spec and make a clean implementation than to waste your time with Sun's source.
Religion and Linux zealots have one thing in common. Both believe "You're either with us or against us." If it has to be like that, then I'm against you both. Having R all TFAs, it all reads like a big dick size contest. Pitiful.
The purpose of national ID cards is so that you can identify yourself reliably to other people if the transaction requires it.
Where does the reliability come from without a database to back it up? What's to keep someone from getting a card with my name and making transactions against it?
The term Beta has been so overused with different software projects that it's effectively lost all its original meaning. How long did that Google Beta go on while people used it? How long was Mozilla at less than 1.0 while everybody and their family pet evangelized it over IE?
Nowadays, Beta is only used to indemnify software authors from responsibility in case something goes wrong. However, isn't that what the blurb that includes "NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED" is for?
This'll be about as effective as Apple's Megahertz Don't Matter campaign a couple of years ago. Consumers will see Comcast's 6 vs. AT&T's 1.5, do the math and, rightly or wrongly, conclude that Comcast is faster. It's all marketing, folks.

Nice pic. I first tried an ASCII art version, but /. doesn't allow it. Damn you /. and your lameness filter!
I know you can't see this, but I'm doing this harder than I've ever done it before.

I read this as Arkansas Linux and expected the screenshots to be on loose leaf paper and drawn in crayon?
CAGE MATCH!!!
Whatcha gonna do, brother?

The difference is that with the US government at least *somebody* is making a buck off of it. The Chinese government just does this shit for fun.

Apparently, Roland has been using 404 in their product names. Go get 'em, spunky!

Yeah, like that Santa Claus guy, I don't trust him.

So why use it?

A bit early for April Fools, don'tcha think, Taco-chan? Anime will fuck your head up like that, ya know?
