Kinda cool that xyzzy (the magic word from the first text adventure game) should get almost as many Google hits as the bleeping robots from Star Wars. Speaks something (I don't know what) about geek gamers.
So... I was reading along and there was a discussion up above about Evangelion and how good it was. I thought to myself, what with this cold I've got and the video store being so far away, etc. wouldn't it be cool if I could just order up some Evangelion online?
Yes! I search on kozmo.com and find out that they have the first 13 hours of Neon Genesis Evangelion on tape and they can be at my house in under an hour.
As soon as I get better I'm going to toast one to the internet and delivery-on-demand.
No offense to Mr. Taco, but Salon's Scott Rosenberg writes eloquently on the topic of the RIAA being doomed by peer-to-peer filesharing even as they proceed to defeat Napster. A worthy read.
Christopher Walken and Willem Dafoe tried their hand at filming Gibson's New Rose Hotel. (It's out on video now.) Not too bad but not thrilling either. Too much playing with camera to fill time. Their greatest success was in creating a depressing ambiance.
Yep, you could do this with Activespace. They are a fully relational database with a browser front end. And they have email notification settings for when stuff changes. I haven't tested they're user and group permissions, so you want to try that out before leaping, but I hav tried the synch-to-AvantGo stuff and it rocks! You can build totally functional Palm database-thingies with it.

Every claims that "no commercial hardware company ships its machines with just Unix as the primary OS".
Wrong. What about Penguin Computing? I even bought one, and I booted it up, created an account and typed startx. Easy.
Every is a muckraker.

I think this list is flawed for the fact that it completely forgot about Highlander 2. In my book that's in the Top 10.
English is just what we use to represent these things (if, while, whatever function calls, etc...)
Ooooh... a whatever clause really would have come in handy last night when I was banging my head against that bug.

True. Remember how long it took to get JPEG accepted everywhere? I still have a couple shareware "jpeg-viewer" apps floating around here somewhere....
One of my problems with this ad is the fact that it exhibits horrible ad copy writing.
"Good evening, Mr. Gates, I'll be your server today."
Evening? Day? Which is it? Ick. My cat could write better ad copy than this.

Peace out.
