I don't know about Hillary Rosen, but I think that if she and Jack Villanti got busy, they could possible produce the most vile offspring in the history of humanity.
Lucas has said many times that it's just a Flash Gordon serial with a budget.
Umm... Flash Gordon serial + Budget - Sex.
I mean, let's face it, the only way Star Wars will ever catch up to Flash Gordon is to show actual penetration (and not with lightsabers). This may make parents slightly less willing to drag their kids through Lucas's money-sucking machine (but what the hell do I know, I remember seeing parents with kids at Basic Instinct). Anyway, it would make for some... interesting... action figures.
I know UUNet's not the most popular company with the Slashdot crowd, but they have been reselling Ricochet services for some time now as UUNet Wireless. If UUNet were to buy them out, they'd have much better exposure in the corporate market (being sold by UUNet more aggressively, and by Worldcom), and hopefully be run off of UUNet's very nice backbone.
With the much higher raw processing power of the ARM chip, emulating a 33MHz Dragonball should be no sweat. I heard a rumor regarding this switch about 9 months ago, with speculation running that the ARM chips would be hittling 1GHz (as mentioned at the end of the article); the hope was that there would be enough processing power to support fairly sophisticated voice-recognition capabilities. My understanding (which could be way off here, please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) is that even the higher-frequency ARM chips have low enough current requirements to allow for "Palm-like" (kick-ass) battery life.
Especially developed tests did
confirm that a source of random errors is an error in execution of the 'SELECT' with 'ORDER BY'
(sorting by) statement by the Microsoft SQL Server in version 6.5, and such error is not provided
by any SQL Server diagnostic. Evaluated mean value for frequency of appearance the said error
is about 1.0e-03 per execution of 'SELECT' with 'ORDER BY' statement.
A frequency of 1.0e-03 is pretty damned often, at least in my book!
Don't laugh - there are many products out there (ladders and scaffolding come immediately to mind) where one of the largest cost components is liability insurance for the manufacturers.
Additionally, are there really that many ignorant network administrators who look at a log of one refused identd lookup and one refused active-mode FTP connection every night at 2 a.m. and not realize that something on their end is trying to connect to an FTP site every night?
Probably related to the number of freshly minted MCSEs hired as sysadmins for medium-sized companies. Or even more freshly (as in freshly shat out) minted MCPs (or worse: A+ Certified!) drones hired by large corporations.
It would be nice if someone came up with a certification system that actually separated those who can barely regurgitate what they crammed over the last few weeks from those who command secret ninja networking powers.
Since UUNetresells Ricochet service, it would be super sweet if they bought them out. I know UUNet's not the most popular ISP here at slashdot because of the spam issues, but they are pretty much the best business ISP.

I think it's to appeal to the people who ring their license plates and undersides of their cars with those annoying neon lights.
All you can do is read other people's spam.
Are your balls are belong to us...

Whoops, messed up the links:

Just my $.04 (inflation).
I'll show you mine if you show me yours.
Pretty much anything by Donald Knuth or Michael Abrash.
I don't think I'd miss having The Road Ahead, though...
All you have to do is filter on the words "This e-mail is not spam!"
Leave it to the Slashdot crowd to make things a million times more comples than they need to be...

Yeah, just imagine a Beowolf cluster of... never mind.
Yeah, but having fingerprints on your windshield sucks ass.
Sounds like something to help you avoid that whole Psycho shower scene...
Good names to use:
Hugh Jorgen
I.P. Freely
Mike Hunt
Hugh G. Rection
Bea Yatch

Remember: Guns don't kill people, bullets do. Guns just make them go very, very fast.

Doesn't matter; you know that whatever your profile, 95% of the ads targeted at you will be for pr0n.
They rely exlusively on sales to guys about to throw batchelor parties....
Unless you're running WinNT/2k/XP, in which case the file is:
%SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
%systemRoot% is C:\WINNT by default.
You're absolutely right. When I hire people and they start going off about their certifications, I'm like "And your point is...?"
