The insane amount of shit I've taken from other people when I tell them about why I'm not buying (or playing) Blizzard products is just insane. Hold the line, we are not their goddamned slaves...
In my book, Blizzard is no better than the Scientologists, in that both breed cults of ill-manner folk, and then get their dander up when anyone dissents. -ChaoticCoyote
Your company was once at the top of its field. Now it's being crushed by competition and you've just been forced to admit to an incredibly stupid blunder, and apologizing is going to be costly as hell.
If you have a virtual office than you can pay the $200 to have HR Block tell you exactly what to do, not the mention that they will insure their advice for a certain amount ($4k for individual, more for other accounts I guess).
You come to slashdot when you need advice on stuff that's fun, NOT stuff that will land you in jail if dick up.
Get a lawyer. Now. By asking slashdot about TAXES you've already proved that you are incompetent and likely to be Darwin-ed out of the game.
Before anyone accuses Carmack of selling out to Microsoft, please keep in mind that his wife is really hot and he owns his own aerospace company. He doesn't have to sell out to anyone.
Would like to heartily second this recommendation. I only have the 6-gig model, but having a portable FAT32 hd is incredibly convenient. If you can mount a Windows drive, you can mount this in your silly Linux thingee.
Durable: I drop this thing at least once a day, it's over a year old and still going. It recharges in ~6 hours for ~6 hours of playback. If you strap the case to your back (as opposed to keeping it on your hip), you won't have as much problem w/ skip, but you will look like a complete dork.
The problem Cliff is experiencing appears to be unintentional jostling of the stop (off) button, so careful how you position it when you run.
Being a jackass is more likely to affect your cool geek factor than your age.
I mean, one guy didn't want to support terrorism, so he asked for backup, and everyone said go to Wales or Canadia. That's hardly a backlash, is it?
God forbid that the people posting about how cool a case mod is and the people objecting to spending money on a balloon trip might in fact not be the same people...
Identify the fucking book, and don't buy it. If you feel like it, call up the publisher, tell them why you're not buying the book, then hang up.
Even if it's a textbook you need for a class, don't buy it.

Look at me, I'm a big boy I can read an article!
The book was unsolicited! My God, it's like spam! "By opening this email, you agree to buy this all natural penis enlarging formula, this is not spam."
We are informed when great men die. We are never informed when great men are born. Here's hoping whoever he comes back as can live up to his potential.

I can't find the eps on Kazaa anywhere ^^;;
Five bucks says such a page would be front page /. news!
I would willingly sacrifice all three testicles if it meant getting into CMU. In any case, here's what you need to know about CMU's graduate program:

So Microsoft's .NET will run on Sony's PS3? Truly the best of both worlds...
Please tell me where you found this shirt.

How do you pull your company out of its rut?
The Cappuchino PC pt. 3?
An important question was asked here... It's in the 4th panel, you'll understand when you see it.
Now, the fictional Shawn Fanning refused to answer the question, would you care to take a shot at it?
When do we get this here? (NJ/US)

How long until we get Crush.NET? ::runs::

thanks asshole, now I have to read through over a year's worth of archives when I should be doing work. Great job.
I like how the Penguins just don't talk, LOL
Clippy/BOB/etc were based on Bayesian techniques, right? Does this mean M$ could soon build this into Exchange/Outlook?

When jerkychew takes over the world, he will be twitching and muttering, "I tried to warn them! I did! THey didn't listen..."
Just goes to show that Linux is not necessarily restricted to good companies ^^;;

Hiptop wowed Tycho from Penny Arcade.

That should be all the press it needs.
Is this that guerilla marketing
