Jeebus. There are three ads:
* White woman over black woman.
* Black woman over white woman.
* White woman and black woman on equal footing.
Everyone can't stop talking about the first and ignoring the others. And what are they ignoring the most? They're all hot.
Exactly my thought too. First off, most importantly, they're all hot. But 2nd, and the most troubling piece, why, why why, even on/. is it that all we can talk about is the 1st one? White over black? Seriously, get a life, there is nothing wrong with any of these. People need to lighten up and get a life.
Just wait, someday a presidential candidate will run under the premise that they can get all street gang members to become addicted to the internet, so much so that they only kill things online in games, thus making our streets safer.
Who uses Paper Dictionaries anymore? I mean seriously, you have all the online resources you need in wikipedia and google. You have PDA's and cell phones that will hook you up to the internet, so that's not an excuse anymore.
I'm sorry, I just got done with my set theory class, and I did not realize that the sets of Second Life and Major League Baseball intersected. I was certain they were disjoint?
GTA was written by a large company under direct supervision, and look at the insane crap they hid in there, and the sex scenes. Spicy!
Can you imagine now, a game being written by the/. community? There would be so much hidden pr0n, hidden sex scenes, and only God knows what else. I shiver at the thought.
Yes, I have sinned. But it's also immoral for MSFT to run a monopoly and charge me $100's of dollars for software that they've forced everybody to need, and thus buy.
After a long decision process we have decided to change our name from barcoder to barcodepedia. This should hopefully give us a more international feel
Since when does changing an 'r' to a 'pedia' give you more international feel?
Yesterday an anonymous reader submitted an Arousing article discussing a little known fact that Pron is actually the most effective form of spam in your inbox! I for one was amazed at this revelation, and so were several other/. users Similar to the number of spam emails you receive in a Yahoo! account per hour, there were over 100+ comments posted.
Some were funny...
I prefer the Combo ads, where it tries to sell you Viagra and shows you pictures of who you could use it on. - neonprimetime Snake oil is snake oil, but free boobies? PRICELESS - l5rfanboy In a word... "duh". What is going to grab anyone's attention more? "We ship quadraphexametaline to your door for a flat rate of $9.99 - click here to order" or "18 year old Mariana Gottemoff does immoral things with a bearclaw - click here to view" - oahazmatt
Some actually provoked thought simply filter the $ symbol, i did this at home and spam disappeared overnight never to return and as my company has no dealings with anyone using that currency it didnt stop any legit mail from getting through - AC
And some were just plain craZy All your spam are belong to porn! - MrSquirrel
So, I'm curious, what did you really think of this exciting article? I mean the first time you posted I know you were just trying to boost your Karma, but now please take the time to actually RTFA and tell me what you thought.
the email introducing the service explained that students could keep their songs only until they graduated. "After I read that, I decided I didn't want to even try it,"
This is seriously not enforced, so they shouldn't worry about it. I still use software (mostly MSFT and Anti-virus stuff) I received free from college. And I graduated several years ago already.
I agree, having a short password expiration date, combined with crappy password rules equals less security. At the company I work at the passwords expire every 30 days, you can't use your last like 10 passwords, and all you're required to do is have 1 number in your password. So you get users with passwords like this
January - myparty1
Febraury - myparty2
March - myparty3
Instead a much more secure system would have the password expire once a year, can't use your previous password, and require 2 numbers and 2 symbols or something like that. Then you'll end up with passwords like
Colon used a program downloaded from the Internet to extract "hashes" -- user names, encrypted passwords and other information -- from the FBI's database. Then he used another program to crack the passwords by using dictionary word comparisons, lists of common passwords and character substitutions to figure out the plain text passwords.
Didn't you get the memo? Don't use god, love, sex, or secret. Also... which program are they speaking of that would extract "hashes"?
Is it just a coincidence that MSFT joins the Open Source community and adopts ODF after some of their topexecs say they're leaving? Perhaps there was a movement within that these top execs didn't like?
Enron filed for bankruptcy in December 2001 after investigators found it had used partnerships to conceal more than $1 billion in debt and inflate profits
I honestly woulda thought he woulda died of a heart attack back in 2001 when they filed for bankruptcy... not 5 years later.
Gotta love the kid interested in optimization!... When I was studying programming, one of my classmates was having serious troubles with his program. When he asked me for help, I leaned over his screen and saw all of his code in comments. The reason: "Well, it compiles much faster that way."
If only Microsoft new how to write a real compiler... At my previous job, we were porting a UNIX system to Windows NT using Microsoft VC++. A colleague of mine, that was in the process of porting his portion of the code, came to me, looking really upset. Colleague: "Hey! I hate these Microsoft guys! What a rotten compiler! It only accepts 16,384 local variables in a function!"

The AOL access may be free, but they are going to start charging for the install CDs.
retroactively
I heard they were going so retro-active that they were even going to charge you for all those floppy disks you re-formatted.

Can you imagine now, a game being written by the
"Two wrongs don't make a right, but three lefts do."
No, but they can be funny!
There is nothing gained by making inflamatory statements
Yeah, I mean seriously, you could lose your cat!
What kinda /.er are you? You cannot title a post "Will it run..." and then not proceed to put "Linux" in the body of your post!
Why RTFA when you can post a question to /. and have hundreds of /.ers rush to point out how stupid you are (and in the process answer your question)?
"...pictures of who you could use it on"
Well obviously, by it, I did not mean the Viagra!

Cost of watching World Cup is up. Price of electricity is up. Comfort's taxi fares are going up.
Isn't that called inflation?
