I've decided to stop buying EA products - even Spore.
Now you've gone too far!! We're talking about Spore, here. Will Wright? The Sims? You're joking right? You were probably thinking, "I'll get people's attention if I make some outlandish claim." Well you jumped the shark with this one, my friend. Next time, try something believable, like "I eat babies" or "George Bush is my favorite public speaker".
the most evident meaning of the term SPAM for the consumers... will certainly be unsolicited, usually commercial e-mail, rather than a designation for canned spicy ham.
I just want to know how to order breakfast correctly. The last time I asked for Spam spam spam spam spam spam ham eggs spam spam spam bacon and spam, I got 6 advertisements for Viagra and Cialis, 3 pleas for extraditing Nigerian capital, an offer to augment my anatomy and blueberry pancakes served with Raspberry syrup and 2 raw quail eggs.
Too bad we don't have a way of keeping the Earth in the same orbit/on the same axis of rotation.
You sir are shortsighted. Find someone to blame, add it to the party platform (either one, it doesn't matter) and then fund raise on it. Global Wobbling must be stopped!! We can stop it!!! It won't be stopped if party X get's/keeps control of Congress!!! The time to act is now!!
Please click here to donate 25, 50, 100, 1000 dollars to STOP GLOBAL WOBBLING. You will receive two complimentary pamphlets entitled "The Wobble, the Planet, and You" and "Why is Galileo weeping?". Both are packed with earth-shattering information to help you spread the news of this new threat to our precious freedoms and way of life.
Is Hans really that important to ReiserFS? Isn't this the whole beauty of GPL code, that there are thousands of people out there who can pick his work up without even involving him, Namesys etc., and continue the 'legacy'?
I think Hans might very well be just that important to ReiserFS. I've worked at companies where if a certain person died or decided that they didn't want to work there any longer, it would be very hard to replace them.
There are some tasks wherein the set of people who are both qualified and interested is quite small. This might well be true of the ReiserFS internals.

In other news, Apple is also suing individuals and organizations who use the phrase "litigious bastards" to describe companies other than Apple. "We realize we're coming late to the game on this one," said Artie Schleibel, the head of Apple's legal department, "but we're working harder to capture that brand than any other company right now. That has to tell you something."
I think they should only submit (and hence keep) the papers that got a B or better. After all, if kids are dumb enough to plagarize C (or worse) papers, let them.
It's an interesting thought, but it brings to mind a quote I heard years ago: "Do you know what they call a medical student who graduates with the lowest passing grade in his class? They call him a doctor."
ok, let's keep this civilized. In Group 1, posters who would like to rant about the general decline in morals in this country, please line up right here; Group 2, people who want to say that these students are only following the example of a world gone to hell in a hand basket, please line up right next to Group 1. In Group 3, we'll have those who would like to say, "who cares, it's just school, I did the same thing in college but I don't do it when it really matters". And finally, Group 4, those of you who would like to post variations on Slashdot cliche's, please line up outside the free sterilization clinic, and I, who for one, am welcoming our new ethically challenged overlords, and am imagining a Beowulf cluster of processors designed by immoral engineers (in the Soviet Union, no less), will be right behind you.

It's a Pipeline Worm. It's a good thing the internet is made up of tubes instead of pipes or we'd all be screwed!
Senator Ted Stevens responds: Yes, but you see, the tubes are connected to pipes, and those pipes are connected to larger pipes, and then there are canals, and dams and reservoirs, and other things that are even more complex and convoluted. So you can see by my use of the words "complex" and "convoluted", that it's all terribly complicated. But you are right about one thing: thank God it's not a tube-line attack - I don't know if that's the right word or not - but the tubes, they are the most important part of all the Internets, because that's where we access them, and by "we", I mean me and you.
they could be losing a lot of potential subscribers
oh, and by the way, "losing" means "causing or suffering loss" and "loosing" means... oh... wait... what the.... [revery tries to wrap his mind around the concept of a Slashdot poster using the word losing correctly...]
Uhm... carry on then...

OHMYGOSH!!!! World of Warcraft provides broadband now?!?!?! How do I switch to them? Please, please, please give me the phone number!!!!! If I sign up will they let me into the Burning Crusade Beta? That would be so sweet. I have sent Blizzard like a million emails explaining to them how totally awesome of a PVP'er that I am, and how great of a contribution I would make to their beta, but they have not responded yet. I swear, I think they are loosing their minds....
So anyway, please let me know about how I can switch to WOW and if you want I will let you into my guild.
Thanks.
P.S. I am a lvl 21 Hunter on Anvilmar and my chars name is PwnMister (used to be PwnMasterPimp, but some stupid GM made me change it) Send me a tell and we can PVP or go run MC together or something (I have been wanting to unleash my mad PVP skills on it for a while now).
P.P.S. If you suck at PVP, do not look me up.

now when I ask "about Mozilla Firefox", it says "Firefox 2.0" - whereas 2.0rc2 said "2.0rc2" .
that's weird, at least for me RC1 said "Firefox 2.0" (I didn't check RC2)
uhm... What's Warhammer?
