So good to hear that the US is on the lookout to avenge the wrongs done to Iceland.
Oh, that's not what you meant ? Please tell me what you did mean, then, because from where I stand my neighbour killing his wife gives me no right whatsoever to kill him in turn.
The US government is a victim of the stupidity of their systems administrators. Had he not left a note, they would eventually have been victims of random idiots who either fuck up their systems or sell whatever they find to the highest bidder.
He may have wandered in unannounced, but he did them a damn good favour. The subsequent cost of auditing all the systems, is money that they should have spent on audits anyway.
So let me get this right, you would prefer that me, do-gooder that I am, blatantly ignore that you left your door wide open, and not warn you, so the first no-good bum that passes by can just walk in and take the huge fuckload of money that's lying around on your table without leaving a trace ?
I honestly hope it'll show me where I can get some actual food, not CrapDonalds. Preferably some small place with local specialties - if I want the same stuff I have every day, I'll stay at home.
...Europe is trying to tell Belgium that it should abolish the ban on linked sales, and thus allow this kind of exclusivity deals. Since when did you lot get your hands on our common sense ?
If the only way we have to determine if there's water on a planet (or moon, in this case) is to blow part of it up, then maybe we shouldn't be going out there, yet.
In other news, car manufacturers complain that they're still being deprived of important revenue streams because the used car market offers consumers a convenient alternative for buying a new car.
No, wait. Car companies *don't* complain, they got into the secondhand market themselves, and offered an added value by doing a full checkup and offering limited brand warranty on the used cars, too.
I realise engine checkups aren't really possible on used games, but if they want a piece of the pie they should work for it, not sit on their arses complaining.
As a related item, btw, the renting of video games is being put to a stop in Belgium - no more additions to existing rental collections as of a few days ago, and no more renting at all from the end of the year. Is this a trend that's happening in other countries, too ?
This is just the modern-day equivalent of your mother showing baby pictures and telling embarrasing stories to your friends.
It may not be fun, but it "builds character", for want of a better word - it shows that you're human, and make mistakes just like the next guy. If I gotta pick a new colleague, given equal skill I'll go for the one who looks like more fun.
And, like many have said before me, if a prospective employer won't hire you because you've been skinnydipping when you were young, you'll be much happier working for someone who doesn't have their head stuck quite as far up their arse anways. Bad breath, yanno.

You're not really replying to the question I asked, but I'll take your answer as a 'yes'. Enjoy your soon to be gone huge fuckload of money.

Not to mention distant, even frigid.

Didn't leave this post for a few hours, did you
I'm quite confident the regular kind would be, too.
... it'll detect a vast, pitch-black cylinder hurtling towards us ?

Of course. I'd love to see what's inside of that burly sergeant's uniform.
Added to my units.dat.
Well, if god wanted us to run on wind energy, he'd have given us propeller hats, wouldn't he ?

Mmm dodo jerky.

The compact paperback versions I have don't have that note. Makes it all the more fun to discover stuff like this, tho :-)

"worked", past tense ? I wasn't aware the american military was a private corporation ?
Yeah. Oracle doesn't run all that well on the less-than-16-gig market.
like cream cheese, only a lot less fattening. Maybe you should try it again :-)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I see no problem setting your dns servers to IP's that are hardrouted through the VPN when you connect.
Only if it's *good* porn.
