I've found that Trillian will crash 100% of the time if you send an a Trillian user an embeded image from win32 GAIM. (The Insert IM Image button next to the smilies button.)
It sends: <IMG SRC="file://C:\96-16.jpg" ID="1" DATASIZE="239358">
I'm really not sure how this is supposed to work in the first place since it references a local file.
Why is slashcode removing my img html instead of just escaping the less than and greater than characters when submitting a post as plain text? But if I escape the first less than myself the ampersand in that entity is left along but the greater than at the end of the image element is escaped?

You chose WIN or UNIX line ending, tab size, auto indent, etc.
Win32Pad is a feature filled text editor that is written with a programmer in mind. Its main purpose is to provide enough functionality that is missing from notepad without sacrificing file size and performance.
I'm sure others may have commented on this, but WHY dear god create another license, or two in this case? Netscape did this with Mozilla and is still looking for four hackers so that the codebase can be complete relicensed using an NPL/GPL/LGPL "triple license".

Why is slashdot still linking to www.nytimes.com when partners.nytimes.com works without registering, and this is widely known, and has been pointed out numerous times here?
Intellectual-property (IP) issues related to the technology may become a sticking point. Most companies that claimed IP rights within the JPEG2000 committee have offered licensing at no cost -- "meaning no fee, no royalties," said Ricoh's Boliek. But this cooperation could crumble if JPEG2000 becomes the prevalent standard and somebody outside the JPEG2000 group members claims IP rights.
The next JPEG2000 meeting, set for July, "should address this topic more in depth," said Barda of Netimage.
I wrote this comment, put in my nick and password, but forgot to put a subject. I hit submit. Oops, no subject. Back. Filled in subject. Hit submit again. Oh my! My comment was posted as an Anonymous Coward because I did not notice that IE had clearned my password when I hit Back. In other words, how about checking if a Nick was entered but not a password, just like it checks to see if a subject is missing, it should indicate a problem, not just post my comment as an AC because I didn't noticed IE cleared my password.:(
I'm glad they are dead because they have a shitty web site. Requiring javascript and opening up a new window without my permission is stupid. I think this IS one reason why they died: users did not like the experience.

Win32Pad does it for me.

Freeware, not Free Software though. :(

Shouldn't posting as Plain Old Text convert greater than, less than, and ampersands to their entities?

If you are running Q3A under Win2k, make sure you have r_ext_texture_compress and r_overbrightbits turned off.
Q3A runs fine on my TNT (stb velocity 4400) in Win2k. I plan to buy a GeForce2 MX soon.

Would the slashdot of old prefix the story with "techie"? I guess most people who read slashdot are not longer techies.
I ask this question in all seriousness. oh well.
I put all my money into CSCO on Monday, and sold on Friday :P

There is not yet any official work yet on whether gnutella is going to be canned.
AOL Snuffs Napster-Workalike Gnutella is a inaccurate and makes me think less of slashdot.
That's a pretty fucked up .sig you have there. All Advantage causes half the fucking spam there is.
