Toilet paper is not only a waste of money but also inefficient.
And we mustn't forget what people did before the invention of the toilet and disposable toilet paper. Seven years ago I began to use a low tech and efficient means to clean my ass, much as my forefathers did. The invention? A domesticated dog. Hey, they don't call them man's best friend for nothing.
For any of you anthropology grad students out there (as unlikely as that may be), this might be a nice thesis topic. Maybe you can investigate this overlooked symbiosis between the two species in early societies; maybe even discuss how this domesticated both of them.
Just to follow up to myself (before I get flamed). The transparency thing isn't exactly true. There are a few things you have to be careful of, namely modifying lists or dictionaries that are members of persistent objects without marking them as dirty (or you can just use PersistentLists or PersistentMappings instead). There are a few other minor issues with some special python methods and extension classes, but they are just that...minor. ZODB/ZEO is extremely transparent to use, and kicks some major ass.
Does Python have the persistance caching and other advantages J2EE has?
Yes. Check out ZEO (used by zope). The Z in ZEO is a bit of a misnomer, since you can easily use ZEO with regular python code (separate from zope), and transparently get the persistence you're looking for.
What person would be so insensitive to claim this about a film named after a woman (a woman!) in this post Sun Yi age? I hope Woody Allen shows a little sensitivity and changes the name. That disgusting sexual deviant.
Well, it looks like 3-4 severely coffee logged butts huddled together to me. When I zoomed into it even at 200% it looked like just a blob (maybe a marshmallow).
Is it just me, or is the java icon they're using a styrofoam cup of coffee with cigarette butts floating in it? If so, it's cool (even though it was copped from a perl jounal a while back). If not, what the hell is that floating in there?
I don't know which gives me a stronger feeling of disgust: Classifying myself as a lacto-ovo vegetarian, or as someone who eats slabs of lab grown flesh.
But using raw sewage as a nutrient solution has its drawbacks. That's why they cook the shit out of everything at taco bell. I mean this both literally and figuratively.
Tofu can be good if it's prepared well. Chinese Buddhist vegetarian style is generally regarded as the best. It's pretty much indistinguishable from real meat, including the texture. Unfortunately, most people eat it in the slimy, scrambled egg style...which is definitely an acquired taste.
Hell, they might as well find the entire AOL Time-Warner conglomerate inadequate, round up all the suits, shoot them, and use their carcasses to make pet food, hot dogs, and spam. It's so easy to do (no wonder it's number 1).
I have no problem shelling out money for things I want, but I don't particularly want these, and I'll be damned if I'm going to pay upwards of 200 bucks for 8 magnets and some plastic. Cheapskate? Well, in this case, yeah. Besides, I admire the sheer magnitude of Mr. Chiu's craziness, and don't mind putting a link to his site in my sig for a week in exchange for immortality.
In fact, in the spirit of the new OSDN advertising scheme, I hereby announce to all interested parties that I am now accepting money for highly targetted advertising in the form of "insightful", "informative", or even "funny" posts on slashdot, from multiple low numbered +2 accounts. These are names people on here trust, and even thouth I'm posting this for all to see, nobody knows who I am. I have several years experience influencing slashbots, starting rumors here that have shown up within a day on national news, and endorsing other peoples stuff for free. Well, I'm selling out now because I have no respect for this place any more. You think 250,000 exposures of your advertisements here will get you any sales? Good luck! Now imagine an accepted front page article about something your product/service does, and a minimum of 20 comments posted under that article (of which at least four will be rated +5). All of them will be either endorsing your product or slandering your competition. Create a new account here, attach your pgp key and an anonymous email address, and either add me to your friends list, or reply to one of "chundra's" comments, and I'll get back to you quickly. My rates vary depending on how aggressive you want me to be and what you're trying to push. Some might say it's expensive but I provide results. Serious fuckin' results.
As a programmer with Hormel's entrail engineering department, I've heard a lot about this within our company. There's been a lot of noise here in Porkopolis about buying advertisements and front page name association story endorsements on Slashdot. I don't agree with it and I'm putting my job on the line posting this, but this is why you are seeing (and will continue to see) a lot more news about spam, and even more spam about spam.
Thank you. Have a good day, and don't forget to try our other canned meatstuffs.
Yes, but not how you think. If enough people click it, I will get a free set of magnetic rings and toe braces that I'll wear constantly. People will look at me funny and wonder what's wrong with me. Some might even approach me and say, "What the hell are those things you're wearing on your toes and fingers?". To which I will reply, "immortality devices", and they will furrow their brows, smirk, and shake their heads while getting away from me as quickly as they can.
It will be very amusing. So go ahead, click it. I'll create a journal dedicated to these miraculous magnets and their effects on the people around me, once I get a set.
It's the name of a bug found by some guy named "dan" in the fpu of pentium IIs and pentium pros. They named the bug using a scheme borrowed from astronomy...like: [discoverer's name]+[number]. (e.g. comet Shumaker-Levy 9, dan-0411).
Yeah, that's a big downside of upside. (hyuck hyuck). It's a netscape issue. Makes you wonder about these tech related sites that don't cater to at *least* the most popular browsers.
I have an idea for the slashdot editors and their zany paying-not-to-see-ads scheme. Why not randomly post large pictures of Mr. Goatse.cx? I would pay to not see that.
I was recently looking through the source code to pysol and it was like that. Anyone who has problems writing good documentation, or wants to see just how good it can be should check it out. I've been coding for about 14 years now, and pysol took the cake. But then again, I'm one of the people who doesn't comment anything.
Laptops have been around forever, and since I have yet to open one up, it's a mystery to me how they keep them so cool!
Well, the general consensus is that if you use shiny or transluscent materials, and maybe slap an "i" or "e" on the front of the product's name it becomes cool.

Hey, what happened to the post anonymously checkbox? Am I the only one who "lost" it? Grrrr.

You're referring to the windows logo, right?

And they make a very tasty main course for your Thanksgiving dinner. (Who wants the paw? Timmy, do you want the paw? No mom, I'll take a leg.)

Me, I'm a vagitarian.

As was my reply. That'll teach me to post while under the influence. It'd be funky if it were true though. :)
Well AOL and Time-Warner are part of one big happy family now. So it's not in their best interests to go suing eachother.
If you're a troll, I'm insightful.

Now you know.
Your email address wouldn't happen to be "fuckyou@blowme.com" would it? That's the one I use.
I just wonder if they do this to avoid buying Alex Chiu's immortality devices.
