The published exploit doesn't drop your network connection, but it seems that any command can be invoked, with parameters. Maybe he had another IE window open and clicked on a link to a malicious script. The script took 30 seconds to load, meanwhile he switched back to his comment window. Seems like a lot of hard work, but it could happen.
I think he was referring to Zaire. You are right though, if Zimbabwe runs short of food, it will have been directly caused by Mugabe's political games.
I wouldn't call it unsuccessful, if success is to infect the maximum number of hosts possible. HIV can be carried for years without any external signs. It is still infective in this phase. Most illnesses I know of are over within 2 weeks, max.
A successful disease doesn't kill before the host has chance to infect many others, which I guess is what you meant.
The highest paid employees are not always the best. Those companies which award the highest bonuses to their executives are not necessarily the best performing.
If by flawed, you mean 'unlikely to win friends and influence people', I fully agree. But no-one questions my use of a system to which I have contributed no code. Why should anyone question RMS's right to use the 'fame' of Gnu/Linux, to which he has contributed, to help get his message across?

And the original post *was* funny.
A rephrased version of the question might be worth asking. Maybe 'What do you think of those fans who devote much of their lives to the series?'.

K. Ritchie? Are you getting confused by the K&R book? It's D. Ritchie, if memory serves.
Now that is interesting. I remember the car being in the news about a year ago, but I didn't know they sold kits.
If he really wanted to make a rock too heavy to lift, he could not lift it. If he could lift it, then he did not really want to make it too heavy.
Staph.aureus on your burger is unlikely to kill you. You might get a nasty stomach upset though.
Here ya go.

Staph is found in the general poulation. A significant proportion of us are carriers. So please, wash your hands after you pick your nose :)
You already have smart agents to destroy invading microorganisms, it's called your immune system.

What quality? On the referenced page, it says:

If it's anything like last year's DivX rip of HP, it'll be pretty poor, especially in the darker scenes.
Whereas internal combustion engines and oil refineries smell heavenly, don't they? Diesel engines stink, compost merely smells, you wuss.
Does the Guru Meditation screen count?
Umm, wasn't that always the case?
There isn't too much detail in the presentation, but since windows servers are described as legacy systems, I'd guess there is a mix.
Police in the UK are also piloting a Linux desktop system. Reported here.
Hmm, you're in London you say? Why do you spell math in the American manner, are you on a scholarship over here?

A mere 75K bonus? The poor, poor lambs. How do they cope?
The fine print doesn't make it so. A court decision has the power to do that.
Thanks for the definition of homograph, that was a new one on me.
