I mean, that's no PDF, it's a VB worm. It's currently eating the Exchange servers of our Fortune 500 company alive. I think I got a couple thousand copies before someone pulled the ethernet cable.

My opinion is that if you post personally identifiable information to a public website, and expect that information to be kept from all the world's eyeballs, you're being incredibly foolish.
I'm not saying Facebook has no responsibility here, just that people should take care to only share in a public forum what they are comfortable sharing with the entire universe. My Facebook profile contains nothing that I wouldn't want my mom, boss, pastor, or future employer to see.
I'm probably departing Facebook because... well... just watch the South Park Facebook episode and that sums up everything I hate about it.
Privacy? I don't post private stuff to a public website, no matter how much they promise only to share that stuff with "friends" and "networks."
I for one would like to be able to take an HDTV recording in its native transport stream format, drop it into a DVD authoring program, and write it to disc for archival. Since 1080p HDTV comes out to something like 7 GB/hr, a 4.7 GB DVD just ain't gonna cut it. Even dual layer is too small.
Andy Parsons, chairman of the US Blu-ray Disc Association, said: "It comes down to content and selection of content. No-one is going to buy any player without good array of content."
It would be nice if it came down to which format was more technically excellent. Yeah, I know, it doesn't work like that. It's sad.
Our phone is ringing off the hook with calls from the Democratic Party. We're not in the 8th Congressional district (big race there), but we do have a big gubernatorial race all over the state.
Ooh, your powers of computation are exceptional. I can't allow you to waste CPU cycles here when there are so many crimes going unsolved at this very moment. Go, go, for the good of the city.
The whole thing that drove the books on was the fact that Arthur was alone and lost in hostile universe, with more and more of his home Earth ceasing to be. At the end of this movie, Earth is restored and Arthur gets the girl. What's the point in continuing? To see Arthur fly around the galaxy sight-seeing, with a great girl by his side, knowing all along he can return to his home whenever he gets sick of it? That's not Hitchhikers.
They'd have to re-blow-up the Earth and set up another love triangle with Trillian or something.
When I try to explain to youngster network admins the wonders of NDS, their eyes just gloss over.
"Look," I tell them, "imagine one logical grouping for the History department. They can have History file server volumes scattered across multiple file servers, priters assigned to History, and users assigned to History who each can have his own personal drive mappings, History department drive mappings, and drive mappings inherited from Humanities, one level higher in the tree. Users or user groups from some completely different part of the NDS tree, say in ITdept, can then be given administrative rights over History. Or over Humanities, in which case that user will also have rights over History..."
Is it sad that I miss my old, university ginormous NDS tree? Everywhere I do, it's Active Directory, which appears to have almost caught up to where Novell was in 1994.

BTW, did they ever kill WIPO and the DMCA? Senator Dick Lugar won't answer my letters.
That's what Millennials are for.
YES! What's with invisible borders? And those f$cking 1px borders in xfce while we're at it.
I only use GNOME because KDE uses the nonfree Qt widget set.
Is it managed by a grumpy Portuguese guy, though?
I will never forget him, in his iconic white and gold uniform.
Seriously, though, terrible day. I feel like I knew him.
"Protein bars."
Truly an American icon.

I should add, we're only 8 miles south of WI-08, so it's possible they're doing this by phone exchanges, and our exchange is partially in the 8th.
Haven't listened to any of the messages, but I will the next time they call.

how come he didn't write in English?

Just for the record, I'm not a Democrat.
:-)
I'd post my voting record, but I don't want both the Republicans AND Democrats despising me.
Ah, the life of a moderate...
I voted for Russ Feingold precisely because I thought he had a pair big enough to stand up against this sort of thing.
Guess I was wrong. Or maybe he's considering a Presidential run? Hmmm.....

It seemed to me there were moments where he was mimicking W's peculiar speech cadence and confused facial expressions. Maybe it's just me.
Am I the only person who noticed that Sam Rockwell was deliberately trying to sound like George W. Bush?
Shit, I always do that, I always mess up some mundane detail!

At this point their eyes glaze over...
Feh. Gussie always was a lightweight. One nip of the hard stuff and he turns into a blithering idiot. Oh, wait...

This crazy world makes no sense.
