  2. Baby Got Jack on Photoshop Disaster Draws DMCA Notice For Boing Boing · · Score: 2, Funny

    Baby Got Jack

    I like small butts and I cannot lie,
    You honkies can't deny,
    When a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
    and a big thing in your face I get Sick,
    cuz I like a toothpick
    I'll beat that booty with a stick
    Even the jeans she's wearing, her pants
    are almost tearing
    No, baby I want a flat booty,
    That's tootie fruitie, while honkies tried to warn me
    that butt you've got is, oh, so corny ooh Chicken
    smooth skin you say you wanna get my olds,
    well peck me,
    peck me, cuz you ain't that average chickadee.
    Hell with romancin', I'll take her wallet dancin'
    Rich. Bitch. I'll dig for her money ditch
    So tired of ebony, Big butts are not my theme
    if you ask me what my
    flavour is I'll tell you vanilla ice cream
    So honkies
    (yeah) honkies(yeah) does your girlfriend have a derriere?
    (Hell yeah!)
    Well shrink it, shrink it, so I can get right down
    and dink it,

    Chorus:
    Baby got Jack (wh-white honkies with the real small boot-wh-white honkies with the real small booty)
    Baby got Jack (wh-white honkies with the real
    small boot-wh-white honkies with the real small booty)

    I like 'em flat and small, and when I'm in the mall,
    I just can't help myself
    I'm doing the dog pund
    call (woo woo woo woo)
    Don't like a sister, who farts
    while playing Twister.
    I wish those beans did miss her,
    even Uncle Ben would fist her
    I like my booties real
    slender and tender,
    And if I see a big booty, I'll
    put it in the blender
    Don't want a rear fender.

    While they're at it, how about creating a "truth in News reporting" law. .. no obligation to report truthfully, and the First Amendment protects their right to lie.

  4. Re:So let me get this right... on Null-Prefix SSL Certificate For PayPal Released · · Score: 1

    If the CapiCom.dll version 2.1.0.2 is what we are are talking about, you can get it in a Security Update for CAPICOM (KB931906) here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=CA930018-4A66-4DA6-A6C5-206DF13AF316&displaylang=en

    Publicly, MS says that CAPICOM will stay 32-bit and will NEVER release a 64-bit version and that no further versions will be released. They want you to use .NET's cryto stuff, instead.

    You can, however, get CapiCom.dll version 2.1.0.3 (November 8, 2008, 3:15:16 PM) from Office 2007 Service Pack 2. This is mentioned at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/970357.

    If someone know how to test for this bug but needs help to get this DLL out of the service pack file, I will gladly help.

    (Posting this will now kill my 7 mod points I moderated to this story alone, so I hope this is indeed what we are talking about.)

  9. RE: Licensed books on Company Uses DMCA To Take Down Second-Hand Software · · Score: 2, Insightful

    This will happen if it hasn't already happened.
    What definitely hasn't happened is the author or publisher having seen the "licensed" book being resold and brought it to court.

    Once that happens all hell will break lose.

    If games and software are copyrighted because they are expression of ideas, and *they* can be *licensed*;
    there is nothing preventing books from getting the same "first-sale doctrine" circumventing license treatment.

  10. Re:The Glory went out of IT on Has the Glory Gone Out of Working In IT? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Actually, it's ever since the CEO started to get computer advice from a salesman instead of his IT staff. The CEO then had to use his position to order the IT staff to implement bad software/hardware.

    This made CEOs look bad so they created the CIO position to off-load bad decision making and be able to fire the CIO when the shit hit the fan.

    In the end, the IT staff is undervalued, demoralized and stressed.
