If you want to really see some label blurring watch Extreme Home Makeover. It's gotten to where you can only see about half of the frame at a time. This week they even blurred a box that Ty put in his basket while "shopping" at Sears! They could run Clockwork Orange in primetime with less censoring than that show gets.
...Yes, linux can run on extremely slow hardware. But does that mean we should pull every POS machine out of the garbage and try to get linux on it?...
Of course we should. How else are we going to prove to everyone that we're the most l33t haxx0rz on the planet?
Oops. Somebody clicked the wrong moderation. He clicked "Insightful" when he was trying to click "Naive". There are no natural rights. Sure, somebody made up the phrase and it's used alot, but that doesn't make it true. All the rights you have are those that were granted by a governing body which has dominion over you and those around you. In the absence of that governing body and the protections it provides those rights cease to exist. Additionally, if that governing body decides that you no longer have a certain right, then you don't.
Forget the flashlight. Somebody's gotta get busy scattering boxes of shotgun shells all over the place! Well, that and developing body armor that automatically jumps off of the ground and puts itself on you when you step on it. But what about the Leather Goddesses?
The headline almost followed the conventions of English grammar. If a couple of articles were added and the verb tense were corrected then it would be a complete and correct sentence. I'm not normally a Grammar Nazi, but I couldn't help noticing that your reply on the topic of grammar doesn't include a single proper sentence.
I initially tried to read it that way, but just couldn't get it to work out. Isn't it great the way that headlines (and jounalism in general) get to completely ignore all conventions of grammar and sentence structure?
I'm really looking forward to the scene where the girl dreams about the hero falling off a cliff, and being swept away in a river. Which character will have the really huge eyes?

So are you saying that you have other people who do your cow orking for you? I wish I had that kind of luxury.

...the EU is not spending millions of dollars, it is spending $1.2 million...
1.2 million is more than one million. That would seem to qualify as millions.
Here I am with moderator points, but I can't mod the article down as flamebait. What a waste.
Are you referring to cancer in Brest, France or Brest, Belarus?
What's he doing in Michigan's legislature? Doesn't he already have enough trouble in Texas?

Isn't 20 ton a huuuuuuuuuuuge payload ?
Not really. Skylab was more than 22 tons. Hubble is over 10 tons. 20 tons is large, but not overwhelming.

Ah, is there anything more ironic than an attorney general covering up a representation of what he's supposed to support.
That's not ironic. That's using art to express reality.
...What happened to turning the other cheek?
So you're suggesting he should have just mooned the guy?

Well, they did try it. Dinosaur Forces: 0 - Evolution: 1.

Which character will have the really huge eyes?
Wouldn't it be really funny if they changed its course to Earth? Someone has to lose their job for that one.
Well, yes. I suppose if an asteroid hit the Earth that person would lose his job - along with everything else.
...Do they know something (troubling) that I don't?
I suspect they know a lot of things that you don't. Things that you would find very troubling.
Everyone knows that Linux can't get a virus. I'm sure I've read that about a million times on /.
Clearly this is just a lie spread by M$.
Wow! Thanks for the link.
Hey, moderators. Mod parent up. This is actually news for nerds.
Have you ever tried to crack Navajo code talk?
...You have to wonder how much deliberate trolling the editors do.
Really? I've never wondered much at all. It seems pretty obvious.
...Besides, the other guys have more nukes.
Yeah, but they're all mounted on Soviet launch vehicles. Based on recent performance we can expect the Berents Sea to get nuked all to hell.
Or just watch the movie "Ice Pirates".
No, wait, don't do that. I don't want you to hate me for causing that much pain.
...I'm not sure of the time scales involved but you can make ice this way in the desert.
I'm thinking the time scale would be largely dependent on how long it takes to reach the onset of the next ice age.
