Agreed -- both on the suckitude of this public Zonk-giving-head-to-PA-fest and the unparalled awesomeness of Bill Watterson. While I join you in hoping for undiscovered Calvin & Hobbes, in the meantime, we can take comfort in Andres McMeel's plans to relase a COMPLETE collection of C&H (a la The Far Side) in '05!
Far, far from it. China is a key ally of North Korea. China is one of their largest trade partners and sends signficant amounts of aid. Kim Jong-il regularly consults with the Chinese government. The Chinese troops on the border are really just there to prevent the famine striken citizes of North Korean, trying to flee their homeland in search of food.
China has a vested interested in keeping North Korea around and would most likely defend them against any US/S. Korean invasion. The last thing China would want is a US ally right on its border.
Are you insane? Do you know anything that you're talking about? For the record, North Korea has attacked someone. When North Korea launched a massive attack, crossing over the 38th into South Korea -- for reference, it was called (oddly enough) the Korean War.
Get an Aeron. and you back will love you forever for it. You can get new ones for just over $600 and probably less if you can find one used (try craigslist).
I have one at work and at home. They're terrific. Once you use them, you'll never want to go back.

I read Slashdot in lynx. Does that count?

Not quite... Knuths starts at $2.56 but doubles each time a bug is found (with a cap of $327.68).

Right, which is what you get when a dupe is posted, not hundreds of posts pointing out it's a dupe?
-Bill
My original post was really just a joke, but are you serious?
Think allow_url_fopen and register_globals?
-Bill
Without Knuth there would be no Google. 'nuff said.
Or, uh, just use Perl?

what's a computer???
"elaborate" is giving the Slashdot editor a _little_ too much credit.
What, did timothy change his name to samzenpus?
Uh, sure, I do. Yeah, in fact, I'll sell them for $499!
Or, apparently, the editors...

No longer on the gold standard, how is this different from the U.S. government deciding to just print more money?

P.S. Apache 2.0 is great and there is no reason not to use it IMO.
mod_perl?

All browsers?
I think not!

(And I didn't even mention telnet'ing to port 80!)
