I know they probably logged my IP, but I dont care, because I think it is wrong of them to steal my email address and send me porn adds, I recommend that you cancel any subscriptions with them immediately. The reason you are receiving this message is because im using Pussy-Hunter.net's own tool that they use to send emails to thousands and thousands of people. They have lists of stolen and random generated email addresses. If you dont beleive me just goto www.pussy-hunter.net/cgi-bin/ and look through the files.
People seem to have higher standards for the viewing angle on a desktop compared to a laptop. That is, on my laptop, I experience major color distortion if I look at the screen from a just a few degrees too high or low, whereas the LCD monitors I've seen don't have this problem (at least to this severity).
Then again, my laptop is a few years old, and it's possible that disparity is much smaller now. Does anybody have a laptop and an LCD monitor roughly the same age that can confirm this?
Zaurus 5500 reviews are so 2002. Why, this highly reputable site posted their first review nearly a year ago! I think I'll start reading it instead of Slashdot.
The Governemt Will Never Give Up This Tax (In 25 years great software may come from many nations, think about the future)
Even Free Software May Be Subject to Tax or Fees
People need to understand that when Corporations are taxed they never loose money; they just charge us more.
And less people buy their product (barring a monopoly), and that equates to money lost.
The only thing that may work is a tax incentive to companies that use American Software.
This incentive will do three things. 1. Taxes Will Be Greater To Fund It 2. Corporations Will Never Give Up This Incentive (as long as they can afford representitives) 3. Free Software May Be Exempt From This Incentive, Making It Less Competitive
"[O]ur customers told us they didn't want a standard distribution that had some tweaks, so I decided to fix the problem by simply supporting between two and four standard Linux distributions."
This can only be good news. Instead of supporting one branded distribution, they'll be supporting multiple existing ones.
For those of us who dislike Intuit's DRM, this sounds like a great alternative to one of their products. The fact that it runs on GNU/Linux is a nice bonus, too.
I hope they follow up with some nice tax software, so they can really hit Intuit where it counts.
(1) Write small program that has unchecked buffer size problem. (2) Compile and run program. (3) Exploit unchecked buffer size problem in program they just wrote. (4) Compromise your own user account. (5)... (6) Profit!
Buffer overflows are only useful when the program has privileges you want. The only way your exploit would work is if you could run your program as root, in which case you're done before you've started.
The thing is, PDAs, phones, MP3 players and various other handheld thingies should never ever crash.
Neither should workstations and notebooks, but they certainly do.
Anyways, my primary point was how cool it was to be able to ssh into a PDA. I threw in the uptime as an extra (possibly undeserved) zing against Microsoft.
In O-STEP, the vendors are almost "irrelevant" and would not drive the program, Stanco added. Instead, if enough large government agencies and other software customers demand O-STEP, software vendors would have to play along. "I want the financial community to say, 'You're in a dead-end industry if you're a proprietary company,'" he said. "The producers have too much power."
Before you know it, we'll be seeing Windows GPL. Right after the large government agencies and other software vendors succeed in getting Microsoft to play along with their demands of not illegally leveraging their monopoly.:-)
The latest finding from TEMPO, the company's quarterly study of digital music consumer activities, shows almost one-fifth of the US population over 12 has downloaded music in the last 30 days. Of that number only 21% feel that free downloading hurts artists. Only 9% feel that downloadling a file is wrong.
So, essentially, yes, they did ask only downloaders.
Even if this was the opinion of the general public, would it mean much? They (or should I say we) have been wrong before.
"Ipsos-Reid has released its latest research on spamming. Bottom line, the great majority of spammers do not believe they are breaking the law. Only 9% feel there is anything wrong with their actions. With 40 million Americans identified as active spam receivers this is indeed stirring information, though not surprising. Another stat, 73% of US spammers report that their motivation for trading was to offer people legitimate products and services."
I hate the RIAA as much as any Slashdotter, but does this really prove anything?
I purchased a 600e about 8 months ago. What happens is the battery level meter creeps down normally from 100%, then suddenly jumps down to 5% when it reaches a certain level. When I first bought it (used, 8 months ago), it would make it to about 30%, now it barely makes it to 80%. I've heard that if you always leave it uncharged and unplugged when it's not in use, the effect can be minimized. This is a major pain in the ass, but so far, it's worked on my new battery, which drains smoothly all the way down. I leave the old battery in unless I know I'll need to run off battery for a while. A friend of mine has one in even worse shape. He got a new battery with his, and left the unit plugged in for a month straight. When he finally tried running it off battery again, it would barely last 15 minutes.

My curiosity is satisfied: You can get a good deal of SPAM if you don't use the 'armor plating'.
I'm beginning to suspect that some spammers have defeated the armor plating. I changed my slashdot e-mail to this address two weeks ago. I've sent and received a couple of test messages from the account, but other than that, it's gone unused. I haven't even posted since I changed the address. Even with all that, I've still gotten two pieces of spam since the switch.
Of course, with an address like that, someone could have added it to a list as a joke.:-)
Now, the game is coming to GameCube, a system with more bits, which results in larger words filled with more characters who have more lines of dialogue.
This sentence makes a lot more sense if you replace words with worlds.
Heh, even characters takes on a whole new meaning.
Today I decided to write me a perl script to check for the latest kernel version and get the changelog for it. After hours of trying to figure out what the hell I was doing wrong, I took a break to read slashdot, and discover that it was because kernel.org was slashdotted!

At last, we Debian users have a legitimate reason to snub Gentoo.

They said the same thing when our governer ran for President, but that turned out all right.

It was developed to help "warfighters sustain their physical and mental performance"
Wow, just what I need for those late nights, broadcasting my pirate 802.11b signal.
Oh, that kind of warfighter? Man, on slashdot, they really need to clarify these things!
For example, a bit of thought shows that "Universal Studios" could not be rearranged to "A Turnip Cures Elvis".
"Loud, intrusive ass" would have fit the bill. I wonder why they didn't use that.
