Windows 9x had a bug where at 38 days it would crash. However, almost nobody was able to keep it running that long, so the bug went long unnoticed. Similar to a former coworker who always arrived after 10 am, the program he wrote (which dealt with time) worked fine for him, but when people tried running it before 10:00 am it had issues (because he assumed the hour was always two digits, in the code). Good times.
Parsing fail. It's not "random processes are running, oh noes!" It's "something got corrupted when the disk filled up because it couldn't write. We don't know which process got corrupted, so it is 'random'. We know all of the processes that are supposed to be running. A restart will ensure that nothing has experienced corruption which could further compromise our data." And, I completely agree with you.
NORMAL? It's "normal" to have a protective piece of flesh removed? What if we removed your eyelids, would that seem "normal" if it was done in your society? Fuck.
Yup, after reading your second-to-last sentence, I now wish I was Jewish. Or some other fucking cult that doesn't cut up their children; only 60% of Americans do this.
You're an AC, but read my fucking history if you doubt how strongly I feel over being forcibly removed from a part of my body that GOD INTENDED TO BE PRESENT (if you're into mythology).
Heh, true. Oh well, trying to help here.:) And you're right, a search result which times out is even worse that one you simply have to scroll down to the bottom to see the answer.:)
Unfortunately that's not true and the proof is in the pudding
Unfortunately that's not true; the proof is not in the pudding, and never was. "The proof of the pudding is in the eating"; in other words, you can only tell whether it was done correctly if you consume it -- looking at it won't tell you either way.
I don't think Kibo still greps the Internet and responds, like back in the late 80s on Usenet. I think the word you're looking for is "Kindle", but nicely played.:)
I also seem to remember something about some posts that were modded below -1, which meant that, although technically they were still there, you couldn't see them, and I also remember something about an entire thread that got "disappeared".
I "participated" (somehow, those fucking losers running the site didn't read what I wrote, or something) in one of those "disappeared" threads. I lost mod points for several years; got them back a couple years ago. Why? I don't fucking know, I didn't say anything as negative about Slashdot back then as I'm saying in this comment.
So I would say Judaism is also a cult; they took away my piece of flesh, even if my father's decision was only due to his discomfort and had nothing to do with those fucking Jews.
It is a cult because it talks about DC-10s flying people from one planet to another. DC-10s, because that was the most advanced airship we had created at the time of the writing of the fiction.

I never understood the use of a separate view/edit mode either anyway.
The benefit of a separate view/edit mode is reduced energy expenditure by your finger/arm muscles.

If you get 51% of the people to agree that 2+2=5 it's still wrong.
Thank you.
Yes, it's perfect, because it retrofits a scarcity model onto a non-scarce environment. *facepalm*

The Nook, Kibo [...]

It's bizarre. By charging more money you can sometimes reach a larger audience.
No, it's bazaar.
Does somebody have a case of the Mondays? (I prefer a bucket, but some find carrying cases easier...)
This is the deepest thing I've read on Slashdot in weeks.
When I clicked your comment, I saw "Loading...". That was the deepest thing I've seen in Slashdot in weeks.
I suspect this is related to some overall plan for adding value to the Chrome platform.
Or not pissing off "customers."
That being said, just being able to block Expert Exchange is priceless to me. I hate those bastards.
/etc/hosts, or, c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts. Apparently (from ping) they're at 208.87.33.150.
Very true, but that is what you get with Experts Exchange.
Don't you mean expert-sexchange?
You mean this one that is still there and happily waiting for you to metamod in?
Hmm. I think it is fearfully waiting. At least, after last time.
Taiwan, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Korea have been good successes.
Tunisia and Egypt are some more recent examples. Followed swiftly by Algeria, Yemen, and others...

I always thought that mixing fruits and nuts together to be a bit iffy...
Your comment said "batty" in my head, which then said: Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana; and fruit flies are liked by bats.
All they have to do is threaten with big words. Most places will not risk having to prove a challenge was bogus.
Including here, according to the submission (yes, I lived through that, and shame on you Slashdot).
