Allow Warner Bros to release the movie into theatres on the promise that Warner show a bunch of trailers for Fox movies. I'm pretty sure a similar thing happened regarding Austin Powers, but I could be wrong.
I agree, how many known galaxies are there? More than 100 billion (according to Wikipedia*) and with some having as many as one trillion stars (according to Wikipedia*), I'd say the chances of a star system being similar to ours is very possible. Same goes for life, intelligent or not.
I refuse to read the article because it goes against my creationist beliefs.
How dare you suggest that the x86 evolved from the 8008. Me and my other enlightened brothers believe that the x86 was created by the supreme BG (MBWH*) who resides in MS, a utopia where all processors will eventually return to.
I *hate* having to type stuff into the address bar. I only have about 20 entries in the browser history, but when I put FF3 on, most of those suddenly vanished and the only way I could get back to Slashdot was to type it in.
I don't want to type it in everytime I want to go there, why can't I just click on the fucking drop down arrow and look for it there, instead of typing in s.l.a.s until it finally comes up, then having to press the down arrow and hitting return. I could have found slashdot in 2 clicks and perhaps one scroll of the mousewheel.
I don't want to type in scummvm and get back 20 results of random pages containing the word scummvm but not a single one pointing to the main site.
In defence of the Awesome bar, I only used it for about an hour before dismissing it, but I reckon 1 hour is enough...
I had to call my ISP the other day (Virgin Media, because they're thieving, lying cheats), and had to go through the usual name, address and phone number. Then they asked me for my security password. I gave the wrong answer and the lady on the other end of the phone said the following:
"It's usually your mother's maiden name"
What the fuck?! Are you kidding me?! That's secure isn't it, giving me hints!
"What's your house number?" "Erm, 11" "Ooh, 1 out, try again" "Er... 10?" "Other way, dear" "12?" "OK, great. What can I do for you today Mr. Smith?"
Digital Spy have an interesting, but unfortunately very annoying, way of dealing with Captcha. If you sign up from a Hotmail, Gmail or Yahoo account, then you have to pay Digital Spy £5 to register that account. Business email addresses or ones from ISPs don't require a fee.
I don't live that far away from work, so if I ever forget my laptop it's not too much of a trek. To be honest I'm more likely to "forget" my pass and then I have to go and temporary one from the lovely girls in premises (I'm not stupid you know).
Seriously though, I usually just put my laptop bag, with the laptop inside it (the most important bit) across my front door so that I have to pick it up to open the door. Obviously this only works if you're the first person out the door in the morning...
If they're not going to develop it any further, they might as well let someone else have a go. Now all we have to do is convince Microsoft to release the source code to Windows ME.
My GP's been doing this for ages. Everytime I have a problem he's not sure about, he types the symptons into Google and clicks "I'm feeling lucky", which usually redirects him to Wikipedia...
Slashdot Mirror
how they'll implement the checking. Do you think they'll check each video that's uploaded or do you think it'll be based on a trust system?
e.g.
[ ] This is a terrorist training video.
You'd check the box if you weren't sure. It'll make YouTube's life easier...
That statement would have been so much funnier if you'd been a lady proudly declaring that you've been using your Rampant Rabbit for months now.
Intrepid Ibex is the "I". It's out in October.
The future's already here (according to Samuel L Jackson). Virgin ADSL already pull this sort of crap, glad I left them.
That explains why Team GB have been winning so many Golds this year!

Surely you only need to know a bunch of C keywords and you should be set. Here's the bunch I know

That star thingy I see every now and again.
I might have a look at this so called complicated kernel later :)

if I won the lottery, I'd still go into work each day.
Not because I like the job, but because I'd want to piss off the people I work with.
Seriously, here goes:

Everyone! Over here quickly, and bring your camera! I found the one person who likes the Awesome bar!
I hope so, the Awesome bar was the only reason why I switched back to Firefox 2. I really don't understand how they could do something so wrong.
And don't let the Magisterium waste your time by making you think The Amber Spyglass will be any good either.
OK, I'm being unfair. The ending is magnificent, it's just a shame most people probably give up before reaching it.

when Windows 95 first came out. Microsoft were so confident that users would enjoy it they even included the ability to roll back to Windows 3.1
I wonder why they didn't include this option with Windows Vista...
At first I thought
"Dressing Obama up as an Islamic terrorist is one thing, but dangling a spider in front of the man when he's arachnophobic is just plain evil"
I've read it properly now so here are my real thoughts:
"Why bother creating a diff of Obama? He doesn't have a twin to apply a patch against"

A simple albeit incredibly annoying solution.

Google already has this feature
There, fixed it for you.

Easy, Flashblock
Let's face it, you know the Tour de France has become dull when the only interesting thing that happens is when Burghardt hits a dog
Me, I use math to write dirty words on my calculator.
Such as 80085?
