It's Star Trekese. I'm sure they'd find that if they reinitialize the subspace manifolds to meet the resonance of hot spaghetti with a nice wine-based sauce with fresh mushrooms that they'd get more computing power.

Unfortunately they probably already have their weapons drawn, and are just lookin for someone to shoot. The police could be waving a blank piece of paper in the air for all anyone knows.
Now, ther's another problem. People aren't voting their concience because they, like you, have bought into the two-party system along with the accessory package. Sure, it's going to take awhile to get things changed, but a vote for 'Gore' because you think casting a vote for Nader would be like casting one for Bush doesn't help the system one bit. The vote must be cast, and cast for the candidate that you think will do best, not the candidate that you think 'is most likely' to keep the candidate you dislike the most out of office. You go ahead and perpetuate the current system if you like things the way they are now. More and more people need to realize that voting for parties other than the Democrat or Republican parties is ok. The more people that do that, the more people will follow in the next election and do the same thing. All it takes is for people to stand up and vote for Nader, or Browne, or Buchanan. All this "I'll vote for Gore because I don't like Bush" is bullshit when there are other candidates available.
As for the other parties having a voice... Once enough people start voting for those parties the national media which controls the process of who get's heard will have no other choice than to cover the other candidates.
The voting system will not be reformed untill people like you vote for who you want in office instead of voting against who you don't want in office. Untill then you won't be a part of the solution, you'll continue to be a part of the problem.
Not voting is usefull in letting the old people out there vote for the candidate they most likely will increase Social Security spending, and taking away money more money from everyone else to fund that.
People who don't vote are dumbasses, and deserve every single tax increase, restrictive law, and dumbass porkbarrel budgets that get passed. People who don't vote have no legitimate right to bitch and moan about the government. When a person does not vote, they choose to have no voice when they do not vote, and so I don't wanna hear any bitching from those that don't vote.

"No one (except you) said he was Mumia Abu-Jamal. Being a convicted murderer on death row is a far cry from Mitnick's current parole without computer use or free speech."
Calling someone up on the phone and issuing a death threat, wheather or not in jest, is not free speech. Mitnick is a criminal.
I've been slammed also, and it took two weeks to get my old carrier back. My phone had a PIC or lock or something on it, and I finally had to make it clear to the LD carrier that slammed me, and my local company that if it wasn't resolved NOW that the next person they'll be talking too would be a lawyer. After that it took no less than five minutes to get it fixed.
I haven't come across a utility that will do it through the sound card. There are plans around somewhere that would interface into the lpt1 port and read it using bit twiddling.
The programs were stored in two parts. The first part would be a header, after that a pause, then the program.

Ya, this is bullshit. My login works just fine to get to the voting, but their processing software sucks ass. Here's the error I see...
Number = 50101
Description = Invalid credentials. Your member number, PIN code and password combination is incorrect.

The 'Description' area is in error. If I change my member number, PIN, or password I can't even log into the voting area. I'm quickly getting the feeling that these people are knuckleheads. Quite sad that an org that makes decisions regarding the net can't get their shit straight when it comes to the very tech they suppose to rule over.

"I have nothing against immigration being part
immigrant myself (thru my white blood) "
I'll assume you don't mean this literally or you'd be a medical curiosity. I will assume that you mean it figuratively that since your 'white' that you are an immigrant. You ignore the fact that so-called 'native americans' immigrated here also by coming across the Bering straits, or some other fashion thousands of years ago. Humans are not native to the America's. You no more an immigrant than those without 'white blood'.

Ok, what's the significance of knowing pi to this kind of accuracy? What actual use is pi to the quadrillionth accuracy?

I was under the impression that the universe only needed one number, and that was '42'.
Keep hiding behind AC, coward.

Although I agree with you on the H1b visa item, I have no other choice than to chip away at every instance of 'pop culture' that I happen across.

This whole 'fashion' thing with wearable computers, etc... Is just too damn funny.
Who, in their right mind, would wear this crap? If any of this comes to pass; I'll have a few good decades of laughing my ass off.
On the other hand, I'm appalled that Slashdot even covered this story.
Hey guy, it was satire. Satire on the 'all white devils are racists' viewpoint, and satire on all the grammar and spelling nazi's here on Slashdot.
Of course Euro's are racist, their white aren't they?
