Sweden has one of the best internet infrastructures in the world; I am actually considering moving there for various reasons - cheaper living, cheaper food, 10/10 pipe for the same I could buy a 2/½ pipe for in Denmark.
On the minus side, I'd be living in Sweden. Seriously.
What, they've chosen who they want excluded from their free service. The military agencies who have rushed into getting this and feel burned can get a refund.
I think it has to do with the age of the tools involved - in the case of the current virualization issue, I believe it's simply because the virtualization companies have spent years grinding down perfomance lag, wheres the virtualization tools have not yet been properly refined for use with the virtualization capabilities of the processors. Of course, this is a guess, as I have never looked closer at how it's done; I've been happy as long as it worked.
The Stacker thing is simply because the other hardware on the machines simply outran the Stacker card. Hmm. I wonder if anyone still uses Stacker?
Contrary to popular belief, schools nowadays dumb you down instead of making you smart. That's their new job.
Yeah. I believe the idea used to be that Primary was to make sure that everyone had at least the same skills. Now it can better be described as making sure that noone has more skills than anyone else.
A better way to filter out this would be to ask the domain if said mail address exists - and if negative or not answered, add a few points to the bunch already served by 'V!AG|2A!' and 'S+0(K 0PT!0NS'. I frequently use http://mailtester.com/ when users call me to complain about not being able to send mails to whateverthehelltypotheymake@whogivesacrap.cm
Ah, but Opera has had this feature out of the box for years.
The only reasons I don't use Opera as my standard browser are
* because it's a pain to get it in a portable version (for USB keys).
* Opera 8.5 didn't handle RTF editing well, which I use in my work.
He's right, you know. Hawk-on is much closer. I'm guessing Håkon is describing his name the other way because that's the closest he's used to getting foreigners to pronounce his name. That said, my best friend's name is Laurent, but since Danes suck at pronouncing it, he introduces himself as 'Lau'.
IMO, they should set it up like a Danish ISP. (Disclaimer: (a) I work for them. (b) I do not think they have great prices, but not insane ones either)
They have a flat rate plan and a flexible rate plan. In the flexible rate plan you pay less for speed (good for users who use internet sparingly and don't want to wait when they finally do) and in the flat rate plan they pay more for speed, but they can get as many gigs a month as they want.
The way I see it, this makes planning infrastructure much easier. Also, the customers who use ten gigs monthly don't really end up paying for those who use 200 gigs monthly (which happens if everyone is on the same flat rate plans).
Would that it were so; I'm afraid they're just applying the more recent rule; usually this rule would only lead to dupes, but in this case it would lead to a faulty article summary - "don't read Slashdot".

Could also be that the editor just gave up halfway into trying to give the impression of actually *reading* the article and thought 'Eh, who gives a shit?'
There's also an endless amount of tech news sites, but this one is my preferred one. I've visited del.icio.us and disliked the interface, but I might actually use the/. ookmarks. (Not that slashdot is prettier, I'm just accustomed to it)

You could have servere speed issues, or worse, this:
Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at www.relakks.com.
* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

At the most, you could phrase it 'counterattack' or the newspeak 'counterterrorism'/'counteroperation'.
Apples and pears.
You can choose to join or not join the military but you cannot choose your race.
Donnie, have you been sleepwalking again?

I especially like the first comment...
Please, make a structured ISO of the siterip and post a torrent link.
Seriously, that'd make my day.

Oh boy... Low UIDs hardly instill authority!
Of course it does - we're better than them.
But... But... I know a guy who once had, like, a 3-digit UID, and he said that I totally didn't suck for having a 6-digit one...
No, that's the Apple I.
Clicky.

Bah, just noticed that I did something I hate to see:
Either it's ten and two hundred or 10 and 200. No mixing.

'getagrip', 'rtfa'
Interestingly, 'slownewsday' was apparently removed - it was there five minutes ago...
No, seriously.
We would be powerless to stop an army of one with these babies.
Luckily, the damned site is a complete waste of time and carries no links to any of the items listed.
From the article:

Interesting.
Even says so at the bottom of the CNN replication of the story. Damnit.
You read my mind.
"Now, let's guess where the directory listing link is this week!"
