    The warm and cozy feeling of having done something bad to a mega-corp, and some extra $$ for selling your former OEM key on craigslist

  3. Re:Blah. on Github Rolls Out New Text Editor Atom · · Score: 1

    Fair enough, but then you probably aren't editing much text in the first place, or only some completely irregular/nonrepetitive stuff like writing email.
    No, wait, you want syntax highlighing. So you're probably programming.
    So why on earth would you possibly want this?

    There is one feature it had missing

    Assuming you're talking about vi, what feature would that be?

    because it is entirely featureless?

    Reduce the price by 2/3 so that most American's can afford to buy one.

    If only mo'st American's would learn where and where not to put apo'strophe's.

  9. Re:until someone hacks it on Rolls Royce Developing Drone Cargo Ships · · Score: 1

    This obviously can't work.
    You can't ``put some electric charge'' on the hull because it is submerged into well-conducting ocean water at ground potential -- the hull would be electrically neutral in no time.
    But then, even if you were to somehow isolate the hull from the water and then charge it up, it would still be perfectly safe to wander around on it, because any ground potential is out of reach.
    The only dangerous thing would be to approach the ship from the water in the first place (however obviously not if the hull is isolated).

    Wouldn't have bothered to point this out if parent hadn't been modded insightful.

    I don't think GP was referring to the wave/particle duality as the magic, but rather to what happens if you start measurements on the dual slit experiment.

    hilarious how it only works if you weren't among those being redirected to beta anyway.
    set the betagroup cookie, see if it still works.
    Protip:

    The page isn't redirecting properly

    Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

    Is what happens - unless of course you're too retarded to set your dns cache expiration period to something meaningfully low you completely computer illiterate moron.

    It only renders slashdot inaccessible, unless you weren't among those redirected to beta anyway.
    Not that you could have tried it yourself...

    Anyway for the upcoming slashcott i suggest you actually do it, so that you can't access /. even if you wanted to.

  25. Re:It works though (you did better?) on EA's Dungeon Keeper Ratings Below a 5 Go To Email Black Hole · · Score: 2

    Question: does it really? No, it does not, since even though you trick your resolver to yield 216.34.181.45 for beta.slashdot.org, your web browser will still send the ``Host: beta.slashdot.org''-Header
    As you are evidently not aware of, DNS subdomains and the so called ``vhosts'' that web servers implement are two completely different things.

    As you have evidently not even tried it yourself, all you achieve with that bogus hosts entry is not being able to access /. at all, provided you're one of the people getting redirected to beta (which you clearly should as you're as close to the intended audience as it gets)
