Yeah right. You know for a fact they are running WOPR from WarGames... how else do you think they could have broken in?!
Otherwise it's just a big lapse in system administration.
I'm building a web site on IIS now at my company and asked them "so all the boxes have the latest patches, right?"
Corporate drone: "Uhh, no, well, ya see, our sysadmins are a little behind in that area..."
It makes me sick sometimes! If companies tolerate this kind of horseshit, it's a lesson to them to have their data stolen!
The Internet is the biggest ghetto on the face of the Earth. You can't just leave the keys in the ignition with the doors open and not expect anyone to muck around with your stuff!

Now's the chance to add any words of encouragement to the BBC regarding Ogg, especially since, perhaps by oversight, RealOne (formerly RealPlayer) is now only available for Windows 98, 2000, ME, NT and XP.
And she likes them because fixing problems in a Unix-like environment is far easier than tracking down the cause of another hex dump crash in Windows.
Ha ha! Is this the same schoolteacher that can't figure out how to add an attachment to her Outlook/GroupWise/Lotus Notes e-mail?
Puh-leeze. I've worked in a school IS department before. If we rolled out Linux desktops there'd be a good ol' lynching of the IS department that night at 10 pm out by the old oak tree.
I'm tempted to submit this story and see if it gets posted a third time.
Why not just make a dedicated section, i.e., http://mercury.slashdot.org and keep posting this story all day to that vhost. For those that missed it the first time (and presumably, the second, third, and fourth times).
Microsoft's "we control everything" approach will probably impact the number of games available
Hey, yo, michael. You know, it's pretty disgusting how you use slashdot as a pedastal for your techno-political views. Your job is to post news stories. No one really cares about your bullshit---we get it, you hate Microsoft, blah, blah, blah. Frankly, it's getting old. Can you for once post an unbiased article, or is that beyond your capability as a human^H^H^H^H^H droid?
I'll take the karma hit, but someone had to say it.
Plus, since Novell is run by Mormons, you know they're not lying when they say they won't sell your personal info, or else they're sure to burn in Hell with eternal damnation. I did catch something in their privacy policy about two guys in black-on-white shirts and ties coming to your house and such, but I'm not too sure what that's all about.
SUN you could provide some of you engineers to go around to Schools and provide some UNIX training for free to the Teachers who are stuck in C:\WINDOWS.
Are you out of your mind? You're talking about the same people who poop themselves and don't know what to do when they leave a floppy in the drive and it says "Non system disk error - remove and strike any key when ready" and have trouble saving Word documents to their H:\ home share!!!
I'd like to see what would happen when they are faced with [~]$.
Are you kidding me? Movie popcorn is the best! That's cause they make it with coconut oil, which unlike some other oils is a saturated fat and usually comes as a solid. Mmm mmm good. It could kill a small animal if you gave it enough!
What about independent artists that don't have a label yet? Will they get money? NO. This system seems awfully too selective to me; is every arist with a record deal going to get the same amount? It seems that an awful lot of fraud and embezzlement can result from this.
however, now it seems that the RIAA doesn't even acknowledge the artists anymore.
only go to show what you don't really know:
That is that the RIAA is a secret Iraqui agency working for Saddam Hussein. What seems to be the RIAA's plan to take over the world is really Saddam trying to take over the world. All that money that supposedly goes to the "artists" is really funneled into an Iraqui weapons program. I mean, what really happens to the artists anyway? Just look at people like Vanilla Ice, Weird Al Yankovic and Marky Mark from Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. THEY were really killed to hide the truth after their money was secretly sent to Saddam. The next thing you know, he'll be commanding all the world's computers using something called "Brilliant Digital Projector..."
Or, it could just be a scheme run by The Brain from Pinky and the Brain.
No, you have it backwards. A well designed OS would not barf all over itself and dy because of a bad driver. The driver/device might fail, but the OS would chug right along.
I am so sick of this elitist bullshit around here. Software crashes!! Get it? OK?? Nothing is completely immune, you know, humans write OSes, there's bound to be a few bugs here and there. When drivers run at Kernel Level, and they fuck up, that's when shit goes haywire.
That's the #1 reason Microsoft introduced "driver signing" in Windows 2000 and XP (and certification before that) --- to avoid shit like that. If the driver isn't certified by them, they're warning you, if shit goes wrong, it's your fault.

Nah. DOS had the POS niche. It will for a long time to come.

WinAmp has support for playing Ogg Vorbis files.
Funny someone would name an encoding format after a caveman...
No, but you have to accommodate for the lowest common denominator when designing such an infastructure.

And how often do you have to keep paying Micros**t?
Oh shit! I forgot to pay my rent on Windows and Office xp this month!
We all know that the package of Macaroni and
Cheese sitting on the shelf tastes nowhere near the same as the appealing package of Kraft
Dinner!
You've GOT to be Canadian.
You never used Windows 3.x? Where did you grow up, Afghanistan?

I don't know, but I bet he could do some pretty creative things with these oranges....
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
switch (i)
{
case 0:
DoThing1();
break;
case 1:
DoThing2();
break;
case 2:

break;
}
}
So I guess yours is the anti-anti-anti Microsoft rave?

Why, 1-800 CALL-ATT of course!
Dial down the center; it's free for you and cheap for them!
Also, then we'd never see any more Carrot Top commercials--wait, that might be a good thing.
Like it would have made any difference if it was an ELF format? Yeah, DeCSS, the descr... uh, I mean, Linux DVD playing decoder software. =)
I wonder what you'll think of them after you listen to the crack squad of savvy motivated personnel that work at AOL support. Nothing like a few prank phone calls to brighten your day. The first one is the best.

Hah... these MIT gurus think they have originality, huh? Well, I'll have you know that the guys behind South park have mastered the skill of matching voices to moving mouths long ago.
Damn Canadians and their flapping heads... and Saddam Hussein, too!

It's a great program, I wonder if it runs under WINE?

Yeah, good thinking. Then we'd never see freezes like this, right?
