...because the North Koreans are militaristic nut cases and the Danes are not?
How can you say that when Denmark exports millions of vehicles every year believed to be used in private armies around the globe? True, they're Lego armies, but that's besides the point.
From what I understand, most interest in external PCI Express has been related to server environments and virtualization. I worked on this product a couple of years ago but unfortunately it was canned. Not really something you can use with a laptop though anyway:-)
A quick look in gconf-editor turns up this in the gconf profile settings:
/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/cursor_blink_mode
Description: The possible values are "system" to use the global cursor blinking settings, or "on" or "off" to set the mode explicitly.
Script kiddies are still script kiddies. I don't feel any sympathy for him just because it was Scientology he attacked. It's good to see that anonymous have put their initial tactics behind them (ie. attacking websites) in favor of organised protests instead. Global protests with hundreds of people holding placards is both more effective *and* lets them keep the moral highground.
Did anyone else misread "The board of elections is now claiming that static electricity caused the malfunction" as "The board of electrons is now claiming that static electricity caused the malfunction"?

It's not part of the C standard, so it's not portable. No matter how many C libraries you get those functions added to, there will always be more. Have you ever actually written and maintained a large, portable C program? I'd say that probably every mail program in existence, indeed, every large C program in existence, does exactly the same thing. It's simply not practical to wage some boil-the-ocean campaign to get your pet library functions added to every libc implementation on the planet.
The fact that you've heard of them doesn't mean that they aren't obscure. They are still non-notable and unworthy of a wikipedia article devoted to them.
Exactly. When I read the first couple of lines of the article:
What two things do A Doemain of Our Own, Abby's Agency, Acredale/Apathy Kat, Acts of Gord, Akaelae, Altermeta, Angel Moxie, Ashfield Online, Astounding Space Thrills, Badly Drawn Kitties, Boat Anchor, Bobbins, Building 12, Carpe Diem, The Class Menagerie, Crap I Drew On My Lunch Break, The Cyantian Chronicles, Dan and Mab's Furry Adventures, Dead Days, Dragon Tails, Evil Inc., ExtraLife, Flipside, Fluble, Full Frontal Nerdity, Funny Farm, Gene Catlow, Goblin Hollow, Krakow, Krazy Larry, Living in Greytown, Lizard!, Marilith, Misfile, Movie Punks, Namir Deiter, Nerd Boy, No 4th Wall to Break, Pastel Defender Heliotrope, Poisoned Minds, Purple Pussy, Return to Sender, Shifters, Sore Thumbs, Spamusement, The Suburban Jungle, Superosity, Tales From Band Camp, Tales Of The Questor, Unicorn Jelly, The Way To Your Heart, Whimville, White Ninja, and Zortic, have in common?
My first thoughts were:
They're all shitty obscure webcomics that I've never heard of before.
They're all non-notable, because they're shitty obscure webcomics.
So, to the wikipedia admins: keep up the good work!
It would be nice to have some examples of this so-called stupid behavior.
Just a guess here, but perhaps one example would be the well-known geek website (naming no names here) that changed its color scheme to pink and published nonsense articles about ponies for a day as part of an April Fools Day "joke" to "appeal more to women"?
That's all very well, but the fact is that the OpenBSD people have something to show for their efforts. All you have, and all you ever will have, are hot air posts on an Internet forum.
By the way, there's a petition here to the British government to abolish Crown Copyright. I'd urge any British citizens to sign this; as well as the KJV Bible, there are numerous works under Crown Copyright which would be incredibly useful if made freely available to the general population (ordnance survey maps, for example).
Um, no. Why do you imagine that copyright law would change if we got rid of the monarchy? Crown Copyright is special, unending form of copyright applied to selected works by the British government.

You're ... correct ... Linus ... must be stopped ... Mr Spock ... lock phasers on kernel.org ... NOW MISTER!
Maybe I'm just paranoid, but does anyone else think that maybe it was the CIA who submitted this news article?
You need to read the article more carefully. She wants to get a present for her husband for Father's Day. Yeah. Erm...
By that logic, Windows sucks because I never applied to work at Microsoft.

Besides, Doom wasn't really that dark. The Id darkness thing only really started later on.
Here is a more dramatic example that should be a lot more obvious (one of my own videos :-).
You can use it to implement the Intercal COME FROM statement. No serious modern programming language should be without this feature.
This is a job for Roger Wilco, space janitor!
I LOVE MY BRICK!

Because they're webcomics on the Internet. They are almost all universally shit.

Actually the GPL is less than 3000 words :-)
