This is news that matters? To whom? Us? How? My world doesn't change, just because he's captured. Not one bit.
Well, actually it does. It means that just about every channel is going to cancel their programs to tell us time and time and time again, that "this dictator was a threat to world peace, and killed puppies for fun".
"This is my super duper extra hard to crack password with 164 characters and the word 'supercalifragilisticexpialidocious' in it, and noone will ever brute-force it!"
Or something like
"I'll never tell anyone what my password is, and you fuckheads can forget about me ever telling you!"
That one is also kinda neat when the police/CIA/FBI/Gestapo/whatever tries to get your password. Well, until they torture you anyway.

Slashdot. It's been in their database for at least five years.
Now they advocate "american parties" instead; aimed at replicating the famous Boston Tea Party, but substituting the tea for americans. Quite fun actually.
The info system for the Danish rail-system runs windows. One of the screens shows the arrival times, and one day it also noted a print job, that was stalled, because the ink jet printer had run out of paper.
I saw this around 2 pm, and the warning was from 9 am. The day before...
Okay, so external drives aren't as cheap as internal drives, but they are a lot easier to cool (40 cm fan for instance), easier to swap if needs be, easier to expand the capacity (just plug in yet another drive into your FireWire-bus).
So... you feel that Tom's Hardware is completely useless. Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their opinions.
You then say that [H]ard|OCP, Anandtech and Ace's Hardware are 100% better than Tom's Hardware. Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their opinions.
However - 100% of useless is still nothing, so what you're saying is, that [H]ard|OCP, Anandtech and Ace's Hardware are also useless. I don't think that's what you were going for...
And, truth be told, Easter celebrations in most Christian denominations usually have no resemblance to the Jewish feast of Passover.
So what? It's actually based on the actual events of the crucifiction. Jesus was hanging on the cross and he called his diciples to him and said: "So guys, how are you going to celebrate this in the future." Peter, having sipped a bit to much to the blood of his lord the day before, said "Well, uhh, we could, uhh, you know... paint some hardboild eggs."
Like I said, I could possibly understand an 'interesting' rating, because it's always interesting to see people suffering from foot-in-mouth disease...:-)
Starting at 0, we'd have 65,535 monitors, which is the maximum value rendered by 16 places in base 2.
Okay, I could understand 'interesting' but 'insightfull'???
Here's a nice calculation for you.
What is 2 to the power of 16? 2^16. Try all kinds of calculators. How many times would you multiply 2 with itself to end up with an odd number (which 65,535 is)? It is fairly difficult to end up with an odd number when doing 2^y where y is an integer > 0.
Now, 2^15 + 2^14 + 2^13... 2^0 would yield an odd number (because 2^0 is 1), and incidently it would give you 65,535.
I'm guessing the guy who taught the parent poster to count actually knew what he was doing...
It's hard to imagine something smart to come from a country that sent a corvette, snow plows and other winter equipment and a submarine (that broke down before its first mission) to help in the war against Saddam.

No, but the rest of us weren't surprised that the Swedes were stupid ...

Overall recommendation: Recommended
Editors' rating: 7.6 out of 10 (Good)
Setup and ease of use: 8 out of 10
Features and security: 8 out of 10
Performance: 7 out of 10
Service and support: 7 out of 10
Okay, I guess I'm stupid. 5 out of 10 would be average, more than that would be positive, and an average of 7.6 puts it in the top 25%.
When did anything less than 9 out of 10 become crappy?
Porn and tons of it!

Bah-Humbug!

New formula:
1) Find old not-so-funny joke
2) Ruin it
3) Profit!
For some things I like to use phrases.
Like
"This is my super duper extra hard to crack password with 164 characters and the word 'supercalifragilisticexpialidocious' in it, and noone will ever brute-force it!"
Or something like

Actually, and most people fail to realise this, the Swedish Bikini Team, sans bikinis is actually the Swedish Icehockey Team.
they dropped that attempt a long time ago.

How's that for a jab in the ribs.
