If you're interested in trying it, then the basic formula, is:
____ go(es) into a bar. The bartender says, "We don't serve _____ here.".
____ says, "[insert punchline]".
If you force yourself to really stick to a topic, you'd be surprised at what you could come up with. In the case above, I broke protocol and added a couple of extra lines, but in general, it's more fun if you can try to stick to a formula.
This has always been a source of conflict between the two main computer user communities: people who live and breathe computing, and the great mass of people who see computers as nothing but tools.
I totally agree. That's why I think that Gnome and KDE should focus on 2 diametrically opposed groups. Gnome should focus on expert computer users and KDE should focus on those who see computers as a tool. I don't understand why both keep going for the same market share.
On an unrelated note, I love KDE and recommend it for anybody who has work to get done.
What's wrong with wanting to be as correct as possible?
I totally agree with that. I don't understand how people can be so negative towards such corrections. I understand that we have to have humility when we correct, but still, corrections like these are good things.
I just hope that I can speak and write better as time goes on.
Thanks for making the spelling correction. It helped to be able to understand what he said. I thought that he was using some technical term and phrasing.
It's probably because there are too many people out there that would cry, "That's cruel and unusual punishment!", and/or "That's not solving the problem! We should try to help these criminals or we are just as bad as they are!!".
spamgourmet.org basically does just that. It might be inconvenient for sending out mail, but it definitely works well for receiving mail. There is also another service that offers this and is easier to use, but I can't remember it offhand. It starts with a "Z" if I recall correctly.
You are right. We aren't even allowed to record commercials in other languages to learn the language. When I found that out, I was really surprised, because here they are trying to get as much our attention as possible. Now that I'm interested, they are no longer interested. Bizarre.
...would actually be kind of fun. You could take off your jacket and stuff it in your backpack, then try it again. If you came up with many disguises, then it would be challenging to try it as much as possible. You could play a game with your friends to see who could be sold to the most by the same person. Another idea, is to say, "Sure, I'd love to take your picture. Oh, by the way, would you be willing to hold on to my cell phone and mp3 player? In fact, why don't you listen to it while I take your picture?".
Having everybody search for it is inefficient. I think that search skills are overrated. If people spent more time answering the question and less time complaining about it, then the community would save time as a whole.
Also, CF bulbs are cheaper ($5 or $6 bucks, less if you look around a little, and these are NYC prices).
Those are Canadian prices as well.
Another way to save money is to encourage people to buy the ballasts and bulbs seperately. The ballasts tend to wear out with lots of "oning" and "offing". If the bulb is good, then why replace it? Just replacing the ballasts could make us more efficient also. If the ballast only costs $.01 [totally hypothetical], then it would be worth turning it off to save electricity.

Thanks! :^)

You're hilarious. I would have modded you differently so that you might get to keep the Karma.
...and the bar tender says, "We don't serve big wigs here like you.".
Tony Blair says, "But can we at least vote on it?".
The bartender says, "No!".
Bill Gates says, "But we just need a place to crash.".
The bartender felt betrayed because he expected support from Bill, and thus said, "You too??".
Bono says, "Yes...".
These remind me of lie detector tests. It's unfortunate that these ideas are given any credibility.

In fact, there isn't even any graphical web browser that I know of that can fully render HTML 4.01 Strict.
Can anybody list some software?
That's awesome. You deserve every positive moderation.
That is the most intelligent comment that I've heard in a long time regarding spam. Refreshing. Absolutely refreshing.
I just hope that I can speak and write better as time goes on.
I'd throw them both a rope, 1 end each, so that they could pull each other down.
If it's through the heart, then he'll die right away. Don't you want it to last longer?
Would that license be per seat or per person?
This seems like a new slashdot trend. I'm changing my signature.

I think that independence is overrated.
Is there an ideal application where a user would want the lighting to be dull, and price isn't as significant an issue?
