JWZ's website looks bad anyway. Well, not bad-bad, but not exactly super-wonderfull ether. the only links on his page are images as well... he could at least provide some [font color=black] links at the bottom of his page for lynx users (GFX users wouldn't even see them). and the tooltips are only there when you move the mouse over them does his 'super-artistic' site need to look perfict 100% of the time?
And what about blind people? There never going to see his 'beautiful' layout anyway. Wanker.
make posting they don't like or agree with. as long as you say something that everyone agrees with (like "what a complete fucken dickhead") then nobody cares. however, if you were to say "john carmack is a complete fucken dickhead" you would get your karma eaten alive like nobody's business...
thanks (hope you browse at -1 'cuz the karma fairy smacked me around)

I can almost guarantee you that some dumbass idiots are going to email you, thinking that you are slade (you're email address appears right after the word '--slade' in the comment...
Now, what if you click "I dissagree", then reverse-enginer the installer to not ask you? Since you never agreed to the eula, you should still have all your rights, correct?
Well, if anyone finds out that you have that code there, the viral GPL automatically makes all your code GPL.
Well, we can't force them to sell there software as GPL, or anything else. The only thing we can do is not allow them to sell the software... at all. The company would have two choices, stop selling (and posibly pay damages/royalties) to the author, or sell under GPL.
Actualy, a lot of female gamers like toomraider. Ones I know anyway. They identify with the 'strong female lead'. I'm sure she was made to appeal to guys though...
The are from colorado. In fact, they took there ACT's or something in the Colombine highschool Cafiteria. There's a real city called south park in Colorado as well.
. Nobody is stoppping anyone from doing anything - the library is choosing what they want to provide.
Read the CNN story, the Library DOES NOT WANT Censorship software. They've gone so far as to say that they would rather lose funding then install blocking software.
I'd rather stream videos (if they are high-enough quality) then shlep all the way to block-buster.
Anyway, its not like Yahoo really had a choice in all of this, it's not like they can just stream any movie they want, only ones that are made by this one production company. Perhaps in the future, they can make more deals, but untill then, you really can't bitch.
God, I don't want to install that POS RealPlayer on my computer. I don't 'enjoy' having all of my file association taken away, only to find out that realplayer reassociates itself, even after you remove them, every time you reboot, or log off your computer.
Not to mention the interface sucks ass (no rewind? wtf?)
God, I hope real dies. what's the matter with streaming MPEG?
We should push for a non-propritary streaming format (mpeg, or mpeg4 like windows media player), as opposed to begging apple and real to port there propritary s*** to linux
The point isn't about what the majority of the nation was feeling at the time of the revolution, but rather the religious feelings of the founding fathers. It is clear that many of these men were not christians, but rather diests, or atheists.
Let me guess another "collaberator" from va-research./. has clearly open-sourced their journalistic integrity to anyone who has a buck. Hey... I got a few thousand to invest. Can I become a writer too?
Jamie is from the censorware project, and his been posting on slashdot since before even the Andover takeover. idiot.
The Founding Fathers were puritanical protestants who fled Europe because they found the religious climate there to be too permissive.
In the future, you should try avoid talking about things that you really don't know about. Yes, the pilgrems were puritanical, but then they didn't found the contry, did they? A lot of the founding fathers (I don't know if it was a majority or not) Were in fact athiests, or deists. Not even christian at all.
Why are we trying to tell public libraries how to administer their computers?
Um, 'we' are not. The library has had no interest or desire to block this stuff, untill the AFA showed up, and put this on the balet. The library has publicly stated that there have been no instances where pornography has been a problem with there internet terminals. So, no government involvment, in this case == no filtering software.
A. 'Big Brother' is a controlling paternalistic state. Christians who want to impose their morality on others are usually patriarch types. Big Brother is more like Al Gore helping you by installing decryption chips in all PCs sold.
Well I suppose we could call them 'big father' types. But more people are familliar with the term "Big Brother". Ever read 1984. This is exactly the shit that BB was pulling. well, what these people are pushing now is on no where near that level. What they want, however, is. (witness CDA, etc).
Please moderate the parent of this comment as a dumb ass. If you post the claimed humor into slashdot, you get no apreciation. Which would make the poster an ignorant fuck, if he weren't just a fucking idiot. So did you get your hundred bucks reward, loser?

They were using serverside HTML on apache, as that the standard error message. I know that wasn't really the point of your post... but...

go to altavista.com and search for "+cookie +grandma" and go to the third page, link number 27
/thumbnails of sexy mature senior women
The link is to:Grandma's Free Cookie Jar-free sex pics
Unfortunetly, there's no pictures on the first page. You never know, she might have clicked 'hot pics' thinking they were pictures of hot cookies...
