It could have something to do with the hardware being used. Consider. Apple used their own hardware and PPC flavor of CPUs which is generally ignored the mass markets of software. They were not compatible with most software. Now they recently switched to the Intel CPU architecture hardware and their hardware platform is compatible now. Their OS is based on a dying foundation (BSD) of course but that is another story altogether. So maybe they are now PCs again? Ok... their commercials seem to indicate they don't want to be called PCs. But let's be honest here people, who really uses Macs? I mean come on, they look all sleek and shiny. Kind of reminds me of over-hyped Segways. Plus what was the deal with those retarded one and zero button mice?
Calm down apple freaks... I am just making a joke, Mac systems do have strengths, presumably. Though I don't really care for Macs myself.
With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
Pack up your crap and let's board up the internet folks, it was a fun project but it is time to move on to other more serious matters and not worry about all of the money we at ICANN plan to make with this change and instead you all should focus on... well... ummm... you know...... LOOK, A DISTRACTION!!
What do you expect? The American people are fickle sheep, generally apathetic sheep at that. We are fascinated by shiny. Our attentions are held by sex, pharmaceuticals, SUVs (yes, the faux green effort is not as big as you think), and other mild trivialities in life. Barack is NOT going to change much even if he wins the presidency. Sorry. I also don't think Hillary would be any better. Oh well, another 4 years condemned to a party (dems or repubs) destined to drive us into one wall after another.
I don't know man, Valentine Michael Smith never seemed to need much help once he got going. I am sure if properly motivated he could kick even Chuck Norris's ass without much effort and he was not even really Martian.
ooooo Stranger In a Strange Land... now that was some good stuff. It did get to be a little long and drawn out but a very good story for sure. I really enjoy the Foundation series by Asimov. I don't know why but I just have a great like of them and am coincidentally right in the middle of re-reading them in the order of chronological by timeline. You should also check out Double Star if you like Heinlein. It is very captivating I thought. A good story and seems to move along a little quicker than Stranger.
I liked Ender's Game. I thought it was a pretty good story and was fun to read. Doesn't anyone just like to read an entertaining book once in a while? Not every single book you read has to be an epic, heart wrenching, brain stimulating, master work of art!! Try just enjoying a book for what it is once in a while. I read the Star Trek TNG meets the Marvel X-Men book. Not a fantastic plot but it was mostly entertaining. I could just see Worf and Wolverine enjoying the same sort of battle simulation work out.
I did like the Jason Worthing Saga but it is more fantasy than sci-fi. I have not read any of the Harry Potter books and I have also not seen any of the Harry Potter movies. Deal with it. That being said, sounds like this JK Rowling person is being a total money grubbing wanker. Oh well, back to Pyshcohistory and the up coming Mule disruption. I wonder if they will beat the Mule this time thru.:)
Are you serious? A major change is not going to happen overnight. It is a slow and tedious process. End users had to be relentless to get PC makers to acknowledge there is desire, interest, and benefit to support OSS. What has happened in recent years? Major advancements in OSS proliferation. Dell and IBM are some big names that have really made some good progress towards brining OSS into the mainstream. Now they are bringing up the fight to hardware vendors. It takes time. Relax. Dont be so cynical.
Ok, you are wrong. You never ever send your private key to anyone. Period. When you request a CA to sign a certificate to you they need a CSR (certificate signing request) from you. This is basically your public key and some tidbits of info about you or your intended use (like domain name, company name, etc). I believe the entire CSR is then signed with the private key but you never ever send the private key to anyone. Ever. Not sure if this should be repeated one more time but just in case: you never ever give your private key to anyone, especially that BOFH.
The majority of them are useless, yes. The only really useful/accurate bit of header information is the IP address of the SMTP server connecting to your SMTP server which is the received line added by your SMTP server. Anything before that could be forged. Most legit email is generally going to have accurate info from anything more recent that the last RFC1918 address. But I was under the impression the majority of spam/scam emails used fake or forged from/reply addresses. In which case anyone replying would not really get their email delivered and could result in an undeliverable bounce message back to them. Email is just so fun of a beast to deal with.
Let's look at a random email I have here. OMG the end user IP is 10.1.0.50? let me paste that into nmap and see what ports you have open. You can't always get end user public IP address if they are NAT'ed.
I think paypal should just quadruple their usage fees for those users instead of banning them, then get rid of the fees for the rest of us. If people are retarded enough to use a Mac (Safari) or other unsafe browser then they are probably easily persuaded to pay the additional fees for no reason other than they are not going to catch on.
j/k about Mac users being retarded. Well... not really. Hey if you cant take a joke you should probably stop reading slashdot as there are a lot of jokey jokemakers here.
Yeah, larger window sizes equals more fastfood that can be passed thru to the inside of the car where the rest of our fat-ass american society can scarf and binge all day long on carbs and grease. mmmmmm good ole american non-home cookin'.
If our fuel efficiency can increase prices will decrease, that means I afford another triple-heart-attack-grease-ball-burger to go with a side of thunder thighs.
What? Howcome you didn't add 18 more cup holders? Where is the contest for designs with more cupholders that can hold those 3 liter bottles of soda?
Why not go the other way and have good strong hardware to virtualize some routers using Cisco router simulators to run your IOS instead of Cisco hardware? As an example: http://www.ipflow.utc.fr/blog/
I am guessing this would be way cheaper and would not be surprised if it violated some Cisco rules and doubtfully would be supported by Cisco if you needed to some help from their TAC.
Have you considered opting out of their mailings? I have been been doing this lately and I have been getting a lot less junk mail. To actually opt you just call the 800 number on their mailing and speak with the representative.
Yes, having a spam filter in front of your internal mail system makes perfect sense in most cases today. Having a third party anti-spam service is awesome because they front all of the bandwidth, smtp connections, general administration of the anti-spam system, and they usually have a spam quarantine of some sort for your IT or end users to peruse and search.
Also, BSD is dying. BSD has been dying for a long time. This is the first I personally have heard about PC gaming is dying. Oh well, join the club, it's a really long and slow path to extinction.
I have a t-shirt that says "The box said requires Windows 98 or better. So I installed Linux". My upgrade path takes me in a different direction altogether. I've used Linux on my personal desktop since 2001 and the same install from 2003 (Gentoo).
I agree. Though I would rather just see the concept of god on this list. What single entity is more responsible for homicide than the concept of god? How many people have died in the name of god over the documented and semi-documented history of humans?
But being a global warming hating pirate I must say that scurvey is also a vicious monster. Now, where are my damned oranges!?!?

H: If the buzz is any indicator, that movie's gonna make some huge bank.
J: What buzz?
H: The Internet buzz.
J: What the fuck is the internet?
You mistake "nasty tentacle" with "noodly appendage" and "Cthuluh" with "FSM".
Do not fear the noodly appendage for it is good... especially with a bit of garlic tomato sauce... mmmm...

some entertaining and related Microsoft based images

Upgrade path?
I almost wonder if he was not making his own joke considering some of the entries he left out of his list of "sounds dubious".
Microsoft - Because choices are confusing
I don't know man, Valentine Michael Smith never seemed to need much help once he got going. I am sure if properly motivated he could kick even Chuck Norris's ass without much effort and he was not even really Martian.
Something like *Tidy is all you need if you don't feel like using some fancy text editor or are too lazy to configure your editor.

Creating a lean palm version would be a million miles away.
Hardly. They could just do this on their source code to make it smaller
s/.*linux is the devil.*\n//gi
That should drop about 50% of their code size
