A silent death? Are you sure, I thought they had text-to-speech for those things? (Granted, most text-to-speech engines scream like a little robot.) You'd think they'd at least put a really good wav scream in the uninstall. Bah!

The Artsy Fartsy crowd is just as bad as the Nascar Crowd.
An artsy-fartsy art critic deconstructing a NASCAR race would be interesting and fun for everyone--especially when the art critic gets his skull bashed in at the end when he's talking about the message the driver was trying to convey.
The nitrous oxide is the oxidizer, they use rubber for fuel.
SpaceShipOne uses a hybrid rocket engine that uses both liquid and solid propellant to propel it into space. The complete system consists of a liquid nitrous oxide (or laughing gas) oxidizer and a solid form of rubber fuel, which are burned together for about 76 seconds during an average flight, Benson said.
When we finally do get those implanted Nikon eyeballs, they'll probably come with anti-piracy chips. (The country-code would be a bitch on business trips.)
Umm, was that introduced in the last election because I don't remember using anything like that. (Before it became part of Great Toronto, I lived in the lower dangling part of North York.)
Could be. I don't remember if you were supposed to grab your own or the other guy's metals to do the slapping with. (Since Martian women laid eggs, who knows. I dunno you know?)
There was a Barsoomian role-playing game. On the Social Interaction with a Princess table, a bad result was "You accidently spill your dessert down the front of her dress.*" (* With a footnote that Martian princesses wore topless dresses.)
Also, Barsoonian warriors challenged each other by grabbing their metals* and slapping the other in the face with them. (* metal shorts and harness that were all males wore.)
I can see why John Norman did a cheap S&M knockoff of it. Too bad he went completely off the rails after the third Gor book or so.
If you're ever chased by water-walking killer robots from the future, just throw some soap or detergent in the water to mess up the surface tension. They never plan for that! (This might also work for water-walking religous figures, but I wouldn't recommend it.)
I'd say, "Thank you very much, but I've already got one.":) Look at that bank phish incident; the OS was irrelevant. There's always going to be a security 'hole sitting at the keyboard.
The flashing web page that told them they might have a virus gave them exact instructions on how to do it.:^) (Yes, it's unlikely; but Great Cthulhu's Knickers!, I'm still boggled by the idea that someone would install a trojan from a passworded zip file.)
I was mainly thinking of some existing file with those attributes (mis)set. They're rare, but all it takes is one. Back when I ran a BBS with shell access, you can bet that I regularly scanned for stuff like that. Rooting a system from a user account is a different game than from an external exploit.

Were their papers and presentations any good?
Legal fight-fight-fight!
Now that's entertainment!

Didn't need to be. Look at how many different versions of it have been released. (Even an extended version released in the theaters.)
Many religions and cultures believe that it's BS all the way down.
It's in reaction to those damned move theater ads, but I think you'd enjoy Who Watches Movies?
"Could you describe the guy?"
"No, but I got his copyright registration number."

Tibetan monk chanting works great to scare off bible-humpers.

You're not going to listen to it in real time? Slartibartfast will be quite disappointed.
I've seen the commercials. The drugs in that stuff keep people opening their closets for another snort until they faint and fall over.
And do we get to see the version where Frodo shot first?
Who needs a whole printer? A drum, a hose and a pump will do me just fine! Mmmmm...

Brutal encounter tables. Also the green martians only aimed at the flyers that were radiating the aura of Player Characterness.

Princess of Helium and most beautiful (egg-laying) woman on Barsoom.
It's all part of my cunning plan...
It would get kind of wet the moment it got close to any chemical that decreased surface tension.
