Well I was going to volunteer to QA the sexbot prototype, but I'd rather wait till the geno,er, other type of bot comes out from a separate production facility, like in Dakota or something.
I went to a Circuit City and bought a bright red RedHat pack because I did not have high speed internet and mostly iffy downloads. A lot of extra software and a mousepad that was not a cheap foam job either. Bought a CDRW drive from the bargain bin, too. Could not save Circuit City from its death spiral.
Here is the plan: 1. Scientists announce plan to search for life in the universe 2. Extra-terrestrial life find out about the plan (Thanks, Fox News!) 3. Scientists do the exact opposite of the plan, having fooled most of the universe with mis-direction 4. Scientists discover intelligent life, thanks to clever ploy in Step 3. 5. Profit!
The manufacturers' support phone lines are clogged the next day with calls Help, I forgot my password! and they are asked when their birthday was, in reply. Or the name of their first pet.
Somewhere in an autonomous driving car lab, a tech makes a mental note:
Note to self: add one other possible destination, shopping mall, supermarket, movieplex, car crusher. The competition heats up in the self-driving car race.
The whiteboard eraser is the little-known backup media, and can store what was written, in a highly compressed format. It is the best kept secret of all.
Congratulations, Patrick Volkerding. You have made a linux user out of me, and a lot of others. (I recall being surprised that you replied to my question back then when I was attempting to install it on *gasp* a 486DX. Many moons later, and after printing out a bunch of HOWTOs, I am now a command-line penguinista, with a healthy disdain for candy colored icons on an even more horrid desktop. I'm looking at you, Ubuntu.
As was mentioned above,...if you install Slackware, you'll know Linux.
Nope, he outclassed everyone and rose to the top of the pile. At this point, he can be an instructor for future classes, a bad example, or a crash test dummy. The good news is that NONE of those jobs have been outsourced.

OR search Spy Games clips on YouTube before you settle down to watch your favorite VHS on your still-functional VCR.
You can scan for Dinner Out while you're at it. They don't make movies like *that* anymore.
Enjoy =)

Found the Ubuntu release-namer reject.
And underwater now, *that* would impress me!
This is news for nerds??

Are you going to crash? The app will sound a klaxon similar to Star Trek: TOS bridge klaxon; the app is called CRAPP for crash app.
The next point release will have warnings e.g. Collision imminent -- first warning, followed by Collision imminent in 3 seconds, followed by
Two...One

And he formed a company in Mountain View?
I am doubly impressed!
So, the answer to the question, "What does he watch?" would be Whatever he wants!!
Get off my lawn!
It had to be said.

We are not Samsung. In fact, our latest is called the Y-fone
Speed reading my a$$
Gay horses, barely legal
WTF
"as we know it" e.g. There has been no scientific proof that the red planet could have sustained life as we know it eons ago
"in theory" e.g. the case could in theory cost Cox more than $1.5 billion
"will not run for President"

Brad,
