Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James,to those who have been called, who are loved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ:
Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance.
Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend for the faith that the Lord has once for all entrusted to us, his people. For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.
Though you already know all this, I want to remind you that the Lord at one time delivered his people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did not believe. And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their proper dwelling--these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day. In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.
In the very same way, on the strength of their dreams these ungodly people pollute their own bodies, reject authority and heap abuse on celestial beings. But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, "The Lord rebuke you!" Yet these people speak abusively against whatever they do not understand; and what things they do understand by instinct, like unreasoning animals--these are the very things that destroy them.
Woe to them! They have taken the way of Cain; they have rushed for profit into Balaam's error; they have been destroyed in Korah's rebellion.
These people are blemishes at your love feasts, eating with you without the slightest qualm--shepherds who feed only themselves. They are clouds without rain, blown along by the wind; autumn trees, without fruit and uprooted--twice dead. They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their shame; wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever.
Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about them: "See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones to judge everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly acts they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the defiant words ungodly sinners have spoken against him." These people are grumblers and faultfinders; they follow their own evil desires; they boast about themselves and flatter others for their own advantage.
But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold. They said to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires." These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.
Be merciful to those who doubt; save others by snatching them from the fire; to others show mercy, mixed with fear--hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.
To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy--to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.
JA: What if your job requires you to use non-free software?
Richard Stallman: I would quit that job.
I think RMS really missed the question here. In most cases it is not that you could quit one job and find another that allowed you to use Free Software. Entire fields of work cannot be completed without proprietary software. It's all fine that he can find himself another programming job that only involves Free Software, but most people have no desire to be programmers.
right... i bet the slashdot editors are just looking for some hints on how they can avoid more 503s in the future. pieroxy sounds like a pseudonym anyway.
>And yet, in both cases there is plenty of demand from within the States.
In my case, only 1/4 of my spam was in English. I know a few hundred foreign words, but none in Russian or any Asian language. It seems pretty far-fetched that Americans could be creating demand for this type of spam.
Also interesting is that reporting spam did not decrease the quantity of foreign-language spam.
there are a large number of people who would use the sentence tag so that they could finally get two spaces after the end of a sentence and still have clean (x)html and css. right now, the cleanest way to accomplish this is {sentence 1}{non-breaking space}{breaking space}{sentence 2}. This does not provide any seperation of style from content.
Can this kind of game design vision be formally taught?
I don't see why not. Schools teach all kinds of other creative outlets from painting to music to writing. As long as the student is ready to learn and willing to be criticized, he can learn an awful lot.
Hope that provided some amusement. Forward it on to anyone who is interested. Really. I want to see it on the front page of slashdot and el reg within a week. And yes it really happened.
I guess he needed to add that last line, since this all happend around the first of April.
I don't think the IRS will be involved. The IRS is for federal taxes. The state tax auditors (if there are any) will do the investigating. If you do get audited by the IRS. only show them your federal forms. Unless they have a need to know, your state forms are none of their business.
It's not so much that people sit there and do nothing but think when it's their turn. Some people will continue to offer trade propositions for several minutes before giving up.
>Move, or we will hit you! That's a pretty funny story, but threatening bodily harm doesn't do much for family harmony. Especially since my Mom is the biggest offender.
Settlers of Catan is quite a fun game. The only problem is that the games can be very long. When my family (6) plays, the games average 4 hours. So we don't play it very often because it takes up the whole day.
so we can recognize fish but not faces? this is the same technology that so miserably fails to recognize faces in real life but works so marvelously in marketting demonstrations.
It looks like the real problem is that they are behind on their service packs for Site Server 3.0.
CAUSE
When Rule Builder builds the rules file, it misconfigures the parenthesis in the condition.
RESOLUTION To resolve this problem, apply the latest Site Server 3.0 service pack.
STATUS Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Site Server version 3.0. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. service pack for Microsoft Site Server version 3.0. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):

you can go to the Internet Fraud Complaint Center and fill out an online report. there is a spot for kiddie porn. it's a joint venture of the fbi and the national white-collar crime center.
you get a pdf reciept for every complaint you file. i know. i've been sending them every piece of spam i get for the last two months.
in ohio, the lottery ticket is a bearer ticket. whoever is holding the ticket can redeem it. so if you lose the ticket or it's stolen, you'll have a very hard time proving you should get the winnings.

it will be very difficult to prove wrongdoing as long as all the evidence is kept classified. any incriminating evidence can just be hidden.

why does it matter what the versioning scheme is?
websense (at least how it's configured here) blocks access to all the sites mugu is trying to download from. i'll have to try it from home.
SO?
...this doesn't belong on Slashdot...
RTFA -- "...in principle we should now be able to run most non-graphical applications."
Hands up everybody who has actually installed this, let alone uses it often...
Aye.
Operating system news is about as much nerd as you can get. It's also open-source, so feel free to cannibalize.

Hey Taco--
Can we get Michael Peroutka of the Constitution Party as the next candidate? He is on the ballot in most states.

how is an individual supposed to make said tape in light of current copyright laws?

So, like the IRS, state tax auditors will have to find people to go after...
The IRS is barely investigating anyone, and they have a much larger enforcement budget than any state. Tax law enforcement by states is very low.
the IRS says they will audit any offenders.
I don't think the IRS will be involved. The IRS is for federal taxes. The state tax auditors (if there are any) will do the investigating. If you do get audited by the IRS. only show them your federal forms. Unless they have a need to know, your state forms are none of their business.

if you want to compete anonymously, you can hire a lawyer to claim the prize for you. many people do this for the lottery.
