It's not like you can't tell 'em to stuff it, after all.
Sure you can. Walk past them, get in your car, and leave. Watch them freak the hell out. Its quite fun, I recommend it. Of course, you aren't really sticking it to the man. The company doesn't care, the receipt guy might care, but that's about it.
It was a fossilized NAZI PLANE, thus proving that the Third Reich had discovered time travel, but it was too late to change the course of the war. Of course, one S.L. Jackson killed all the nazis and their snakes and made it back to present day.
That's my SOAP 2 script. Feel free to use it royalty free, so long as I get to see the movie.
Hah. When salesforce is down I reload the following pages repeatedly: http://trust.salesforce.com/, http://slashdot.org/, http://www.fark.com/, etc... Its fun to watch them keep tacking time on to their estimates as they completely fail to fix whatever it is that is preventing me from getting anything done. Of course, salesforce is fine right now, and I am still failing to get anything done... but at least it is my own fault this time.
Just because something is possibly not appropriate for children does NOT make it "mature." Besides, the whole maturity/immaturity thing goes out the window when you realize that most adults are just big, whiny children anyway. If something is entertaining to you, good for you. Enjoy it.
Given the radically different architecture between the two consoles, I think it is damn impressive that they were able to achieve the number of titles that do play on the 360.
Would you rather see an Xbox 360 that is nothing more than a faster Intel CPU with a faster Nvidia GPU and more RAM? It may hurt a bit at first to break full backwards compatibility, but you can't drag your legacy stuff along indefinitely, eventually the cruft builds up. I'd like to think that MS learned this lesson with Windows.
Whats even better are the pre-approved loan checks. If you want to take out the loan, just cash the check! All it required was "my" signature and ID. I'm sure that it wouldn't be too hard to find a grocery store bank teller to cash a check with questionable ID. That's the first time I ever actually burned a peice of junk mail. Used the opt-out number while the pile was still smoking. I had planned to mail back some nasty message in the envelope, but I actually burned the bit that had the address on it, too.
I certainly hope so, because I have every intention of purchasing this the day it hits shelves. I expect it to have some bugs at first, I know what keeping a release schedule means, but I also hope that the powers that be don't decide to withhold major pieces of gameplay in the interest of 2 expansion packs per year.
Knowing Wright, though, he won't let it out the door until he feels it's done completely, so it may be later.
Ever play the 1.0 of either Sims? And if its lacking in some feature? Expansion pack! Of course, I doubt it will be as incomplete as something like Outpost, where there was stuff in the printed manual that never made it in the game. That was the last Sierra product I bought.
My big purchase for February was Cubivore. Used. Waiting on two things at this point: Spore and a Revolution. I may pick up Chibi-Robo, but my schedule hasn't been game friendly lately.
According to http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3148295 they are having production problems with the other colors. No real details, but 1-up certainly is making it sound like the end of the world.
Use a svn or similar repository for the user's home directory. All filesystem operations are handled through a suid app, so the user has no direct access to the real files on the disk. When teh virus or hax0rs come to eat your data, simply roll back. Of course the whole thing should be transparent from the users POV, and there needs to be file aging in place to dump old files so the disk doesn't fill up too horribly, but I can see a scheme like this quashing TFA's only gripe.
Used to be fairly common, back in the murky past. (Relatively) lots of discussion about user accounts before and right after they were introduced. Same for moderation and later meta-moderation. After that, the site really stopped changing and there was less official discussion about the site itself.
I really think slashdot's heyday was when vanity sid= forums were cool. I hope Taco and others start taking a more hands-on approach with the site, their opinions are no more or less valid than anyone else's, but I think it also helps lend a sense of communinty. Plus, I can engage in navel gazing discussion while the boss is out.

There are absolutely NO details in there! Of course, that won't stop slashdot from decrying it as evil, broken, and the worst thing to happen since the great cabbage fart crisis of 1996.
Who did NASA feed the moondust to to determine it is toxic?
If you are inside on the moon, one would presume the dust isn't
If you are outside on the moon and this happens, you just had 70kg of TNT dropped on you. Getting exploded is your primary concern, followed by death, with moondust toxicity being an also ran

These people may disagree. This doesn't change the fact that D-Link makes shitty firmware.

So is this any different than the Firefox 2 alpha that wasn't released yesterday?

Yeah. They ask you to leave, then they call the police. It doesn't work.
PS: I was asked not to return to Circuit City. I told them not to worry about it, I had NO intention of ever returning.

Sounds like the MMORPG level grind to me...
The Movies wouldn't be a bad game if they had some way to make Snakes on a Plane...
I am scared by how many of my clients are using one AOL, Earthlink, Gmail, Hotmail, etc. mailbox for their entire company.

I can't imagine that episode making it to air. See this video for an illustration of why. (NSFW)
I'll add that to the list of jobs I do NOT want.
1) Guy that scrapes up dead animals on the side of the road
2) Chicken sexer
3) Bull semen collector
4) X-Box Live voice chat moderator
With the mention of crystals, all I can picture is the time machine from Napoleon Dynamite.

Make the link point to the user's slashdot profile page.

For real... who's crappy slanted headline did we steal today?
