MY mutant ability is the ability to lose anything, even if I'm holding it in my hands at the time. So we should get together - we could have kids who 'eff up their order and then lose the food when it finally comes, and then starve to death, prompting Jon KAtz to write and article about how oppressed they are by the constraints of society and having to order food and not get it intravenously and all.
Like the magnetic forces that comprise the entire universe, bascially making him into Universe-man, and the most powerful being in the entire existence of the worl becausea he can manipulate anything and spank his own monkey with ever having to cup his hand.
Or was that Triangle man? I always forget that damn song.
I like to wake up to industrial-techno, the kind of metallic, clanging beats that can only be achieved by welding together two mini-vans at 50 miles per hour with the intent of smashing them head on into a brick wall done up with nitro-glycerine. But that's just me. NPR is OK too.
...which has been striking down just about every stupid federal law enacted by a congress who severely overreaches their powers in apssing them, like this law. Just wait for the first free-speech lawsuit - and believe me, with this much money at stake, there will be tons.
Great, someone thinks that there should be a problem, so instead of promoting alternative means of distribution, or not downloading music, etc., they resort to the digital equivalent of putting "bandwidth bombs" on people's hard drives, things that suck up valuable bandwidth and make people use even more to re-download other songs.
So, because only a small portion of the Napster population will ever be motivated enough to waste time on a project like this, people will download a bunch of songs, come up with one or two trojan mp3's, pause to curse, and just get them from somewhere else.
This is equivalent to blowing up a crowded restaurant in a city you don't like and killing a bunch of civilians because you don't think that you can effectively communicate with them. Sure, people stop to look and it throws things off for a little while, but are you really doing anything other than creating a climate of annoyance and distrust?
I hate reactionaries who think that they are doing great things because they piss people off.
He's also horrible in bed. He can't handle his own lightsaber to save his life. Think of the the scene in Star Wars where Obi-One gets swiped by Vader and his robe just deflates, and you'll understand.
Perhaps someday we could have huge robots out in the middle of a field with nanobugs roaming the place, checking the fruits and vegetables. When they find a ripe one, they signal the robot with their position and it reaches out and plucks the thing carefully off of the plant. That would be cool."
Wow, that sounds almost like something people can do! Maybe next they'll invent a crappy moderator-simulacrum that automatically generates commentary as bad as Timothy's on demand! ooooh!
Java and Visual Studio are still together, leaving no incentive to keep Visual J++ standard
actually, if you read the judge's findings of fact, this makes perfect sense, because Java is portrayed as being independent of the OS, and even a substitute for normal the normal APIs in the OS. So, in order for Visual J++ to survive without the advantages it has seen in being tied to the windows API's (which it won't have anymore because deals between the companies will be prohibited), it has to become cross-platform and adopt open standards like Sun's Java 2.
The terms of the Motif license could actually *benefit* the Linux community. By releasing their software as open source only for specific OSs (like Linux), they add value to that operating system. Somebody might think twice before paying for Motif on another platform and use Linux in order to get it for free. Nonetheless, Stallman's cavalier attitude prevents him from seeing this tangible benefit to the OSS community.
Most people can't drive. Ever been to New Jersey? And you expect them to learn how to set their IP address in Windows? The same fuckers who cut you off on the on-ramp to the Garden State Parkway? Who drive 30mph in the passing lane, and give you the finger when you pass them on the right? Fuck 'em all.
They don't drink Shlitz where Jon is from - PABST FUCKING BLUE RIBBON!! FUCKING PABST!! GET IT RIGHT! Or may your sould forever be damned to the stinking pits of South Texas, to listen to bad "house" techno and Moby until your ears bleed gory red and your entrails get eaten by carlito katz.
I disagree with the conceptual nature of your satire - for, as you may notice, satire is intrinsically a contrast to the aforementioned realism in the offending piece of literature, yet your version of satirical interjectivity comes at a point where the realisticly interpreted nature of the piece is no longer at question and thus should not be recognized as satirical literature, but alas, merely a bad joke.
When's the last time you saw a college student buying an operating system? About the last time you saw one purchasing mp3's off of Napster online? Hail Mary, are you off your rocker? Time to turn the computer off and open up the shades, silly boy!

What does that mean??Isn't that what they were building up to? The next film is totally Weapon-X stuff. They left themselves wide open.
Let's go drink a beer and fuck goats, and join a frat, man!
Thank you good night.

'Nuff said. No trouble there. She gets me all wet, and I'm a chick.
AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!! STOP THE NOISE IN MY HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The "Sex-Men" was was better. You should see what they did to the Professor's levitating chair...

At least, that's what they hope will happen.

Feh. Microsoft tactics.

Sure, why not? You near Texas?
Nuns don't go out, we just fuck.

What were we talking about again?
Too much tech support for you. Need vacation.

I thought I'd buy a book on "open-source gaming," but it turned out to be one of them books on "open-snatch gaming". So much better, it was.
