"Well gol-durn! Them NASA boys be sayin' that dem der Martians be zipping around up there with their a-flyin' saucers!"
Yeesh, just because our faith-based edumactional system ("we believe you've got a chance to graduate...") doesn't teach important critical reasoning skills, like reading comprehension, that doesn't mean that slashdot should play down to that level. Doing so makes life to easier for the trolls.
I think the accursed Greeks thought that there were, what, seven basic plotlines?
Boy meets girl. Boy wins girl. Robot comes from the future an kills girl. Child grows up to be anti-robotic activist and time-travells back to protect his mother...
"Somewhere in there he seems to have decided that "Action Hero/Aging Hearthrob" ain't a bad gig if you can get the work "
Those auditing sessions don't come cheap, bub! Why do you think Isaaic Hayes had to take a job doing the voice for a kiddie cartoon?!!! (hmmmm.... you notice that the alledgely irreverent Matt & Trey haven't gone near that subject!)
I think the US Navy in conjunction with Radio Shack should do a series comic books based on the adventures of Grace Hopper. Sort of like those "Electronics is Cool! No, Really!" comics they did in the 50's-80's. Here's some proposed titles:
Sooooo... you're saying I should replace all those blinking red lights (that don't really need to be RED) with blinking green lights and I can fire my therapist? You sir are a benefactor to humanity!
It's been shown that women in close confinement for long periods of time synchronize their cycles. It's best to partition your cluster into several seperate sub-clusters to better ensure fulltime availability.
So I've been told...
Q: "What's the penalty for bigamy?" A: "Having two wives."
You're morally obligated to seperate a fool and his money. Particularly a fool of this magnitude. Now I just need to think up a good scam, er... product that he'll shell out the moola for!
This is the greatest news in the history of the world!!! Ok, so I exaggerated for effect...
I mean, where is all our computer hardware built these days? Asia. If all the companies switch to Linux for thier home markets, that means they'll be developing drivers for Linux. That's always been one of the stumbling blocks to desktop domination.
Doesn't Phoenix BIOS owe its whole existance (and the IBM PC indistry as a whole) to reverse engineering and open standards?
I guess they think that didn't work out too good for them, and are wanting to try something new. Let's all hope that "something new" turns out to be "chapter 11".
The general population isn't as stupid, ignorant or sheeplike as us slashdot elitists like to think. If this actually pinches people, they'll kill it off quick enough.
Case in point : DIVX.
It wouldn't hurt for slashdotters to educate people when the chance comes up. To be effective, try to be informed, not shrill.
I don't get it, I thought Gator already had all these features.
So instead, I'll point you to my favorite tiger attack story from Annanova's animal attack files.
I'll never to to the bathroom without a revolver ever again!

Heh. I just found an open share on their R&D system!

I envision an "All SCO, all of the time" format change this year...
Apparently they lost momentum due to a harddrive crash. (don't people do backups?!!).
Dammit, I want the future as advertized, not what we ended up buying!
That would be COOL!

And remember, (+1, Funnay) does nothing for karma!
mmmmmm.... interplanetary pancakes!!!! drooooool / homer

You know, like those "vitamin" injections JFK's "doctor" used to give him.

DRM becomes prevalent, and Gator learns how to use the DRM features to make itself uninstallable. And every GD spamzombie worm soon follows.

Good thing I build all my computers from components recycled from the dumpster bay at Texas Instruments in Austin.
You've been revealed by my fiendishly clever TRAP!
"A sorcerer did it."
I find Walgreen's brand generic hydrocortizone cream (5%) to be just as effective and more economical.
