"I actually like ads in games, whether they're spoofs or real, so long as they fit the context of the game."
Hear, hear, timothy. There was a time when commercials were an art form, and they were great. I think it's cool to see proper ads in games, as long as it's not Britney gyrating on a Pepsi can or something.
Didn't advertisements used to also include something funny or witty to make you remember it? It's like commercials now just try to associate stuff with when you're horny.
"Man, I'd love to boink Britney. I think I'll have a Pepsi, because that's nearly the same thing."
...but, I think Linux is really neat. I don't have a real reason for wanting to make everyone use it, but if you'd come up with one, I'm sure I'd make use of it as if it were my own idea.
End sarcasm.
It irritates me how blatantly artificial this guy is being. Linux can save money. Linux can cost money: put it on all the machines in the public libraries, then pay to train the librarians. And watch the librarians workloads increase as they have to help every Joe Sixpack that comes in to check his e-mail.
If you've got something you're trying to put through, stand behind that. But don't get Slashdot all riled up because you haven't come up with anything. "I hear those geeks over there get all excited if you start shouting stuff about Linux. What's a Linux?"
Well, now I'm on AT&T Broadband Internet, which is vastly different from Excite@home. Port 80 isn't blocked anymore (or at least, it wasn't on Saturday), so that's kind of nice.
Still, I'm moving this week, and I think I'm going to learn toward DSL. Too bad it costs three times as much here.
Anybody that can't spell President has no right to criticize the one we have. It's dumbasses like you that get people like GWB in office. It's good to know that you have weak morals and shouldn't be trusted by anyone.
If you're going to sites that are not in Chinese, use the Babelfish translater as an impromptu proxy.
Just tell it to translate the page you want to see from Chinese to English (or such), and it will ignore all the non-Chinese characters on the screen. So you'll get the website.
People have been using that to bypass filters at work for quite a while.
You're fucking retarded. People get in jail for committing crimes, too. With the exception of the DMCA turning a civil issue into a criminal one, PEOPLE GO TO JAIL FOR COMMITTING CRIMES.
Taking a look at the screenshots page, I can say I'm amazed! I mean, true 100% alpha transparency, it looks just like an image placeholder in my web browser.

As fun as it is to try to tie everything to Beowulf clusters, it's not applicable and not necessary to bring up with every post.
FWIW, not all tasks lend themselves well to being done in a distributed environment. Of course, that's been mentioned a few thousand times here before, so I won't waste my breath.

Except Dell support eats balls.
The client helps a research project do with $500k what it takes the government millions to accomplish.
You mean...nothing?

I'll go bathe now.
...how the hell does one actually cancel their eBay account? It was easier to close my *PayPal* account than this!

mod parent up, it's rather important.
Here at Oregon State, I make the student cap on wages--$8.89. There are a few ways around it, but that's the most you can make.
Minimum wage is something like $6.50 now.
$8.89 is great. It's just enough to where I can't get free health care, but just too little to be able to pay for my own.
ICAAN is unABEL to guarantee server stability.
When asked for comment, a representative stated, "What? Am I my server's keeper?"
(note misspelling of ICANN in the article)

Too bad he's not 'Anonymous Coward'. Looks to me like his account is named "An Anonymous Coward."
Oops, your bad.
Heh, you meant ACLU...
Wonder what the fourth test will show?
Kraft Cheese and Macaroni.
...is that this just was realized. It shows how effective those EULAs are, if nobody actually read it and raised a red flag upon seeing that.

Liebermann, I can see being evil. He looks so much like the Emperor from Star Wars.
But I expect so much from Oprah. (sigh)

When also asked for comment, Stephen Hawking the Taco Bell drive-thru attendant replied, "don't be talkin' that shit to me, motherfucker."
There you have it. Back to you, Taco.

I'm naked, but I guess you still might be right right. I was probably produced under less than ideal conditions.
