Idiot - "Feminazi" is an 'extreme feminist' aka radical feminist, my girlfriend and I make fun of them
Oh and I'm a hetereosexual white male WASA (White Anglo-Saxon Atheist) - So I don't have tits to cut off, and since i've only had three partners in my life I guess im not a whore.
My girlfriend and I are both technically feminists - it's actually illogical for a feminist to condemn porn.
Why? Sure some porn is negative, but saying ALL porn is, is saying that it's impossible for a woman to enjoy her sexuality. You are perpetuating the very double standards you are trying to destroy.
Should I be excited that they are making a movie out of my favorite video game franchise...
Or terrified that they will desecrate it.
Terrified - look how bad Chris Robert's F-ed up the Wing Commander movie - they spent more on kilrathi costumes on the first CD of WC3 than in all of that movie i bet!
Kilrathi in the game = ROCK
Kilrathi in the movie = SUCK
Movie Plot = 3 of the games + extra BS
most spammers don't pay for the bandwidth they use - they slave other peoples machines, feed them a list of emails (short) and make them generate the emails (long) - thereby stealing other peoples bandwidth
I was using Germany (you grammar nazi) as a geographical reference point - and since i happen to have the time offset between my location and germany memorized it wasn't difficult for me to figure out the time there
actually yes - i am at GMT-6 and it's 5:12pm - that means at GMT it's 11:12PM so in germany (which is GMT+1 since i know Germany is 7 hours ahead of my location) it's 12:12AM April 1st
so germany and eastward it's April 1st
I want to know why Iowa is so low, probably mindset
Here I set in Ames, Iowa: at DOE Ames Lab, on the campus of the school at which the first Automatic Digital Computer (the Atanasoff-Berry Computer) was invented.
Back where I was born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa: Rockwell Collins is headquartered
and that's just the stuff i could think off off the top of my head in less than 30 seconds
I want to know who modded that 'overrated' - there was no reason to do that, you wasted a mod point being an anti that you could have spent promoting a another good post
I must ask - WHERE IS THE REDUNDANCY. Everyone with any sense knows you do not have a critical hub like that without having geographically seperate backup.
So I went and bitched to my department Chair (IEEE President Dr Chang), apparently i'm not the only person who's complained about that and other things in the cirriculum
PS: To those of you who try dissing programming as "under" computer scientists - you're all a bunch of blow-hards. REAL Computer Scientists implement their own designs CONSTANTLY, go to ANY university.
Programming _IS_ computer science, it is the application of computer science and is therefore one of the only manifestations of pure computer science.
... I know mine is! A lot of this stuff has nothing to do with what i consider computer science. (I have been programming for 10 years). Why do I need to prove that the PowerSet of Set A intersection Set B is the same as the PowerSet of A intersection the PowerSet of B (P(A inter B) = P(A) inter P(B)).
Even worse last semester in Comp Sci 309 "Software Engineering" in which a group project is 40% of your grade, and EVERYONE must write some of the code and some of the documents, I got stuck with a complete group of imbeciles that had no business being in that class and only passed the previous ones because they could implement a function given a function header and a description of what it does - not write a program. Needless to say I failed that class beause the other group members are completely incompetant - and then the professor refused to believe they were that bad. I just about printed out my entire CVS repository on sourceforge [which includes what code was written for that project, all by me], walked into his office and slammed the stack down on his desk.
PS: These group members were so incompetant that they couldn't even follow the SF.net site docso n how to setup CVS - I had to GO TO THEIR APPARTMENTS MYSELF and set it up.

I would really like to know who these people are you mod down the slightest criticism - not matter how well deserved.
I was criticising the GIMP people for keeping their crappy interface model - and you call it FLAMEBAIT when I am putting forward an honest criticism? EXCUSE ME? Right now you're acting like microsoft! "He criticised us! we're always right! SILENCE HIM!"
Fortunately when I do OSS/FS projects I LISTEN to my end users and give them what they want.

type http://www.slashdot.org. into your address bar - WITH the trailing period
the "." is a special-character and delimits parts of the address - so if they were to perform an $sections = explode($url, '.') {PHP function reference} with $url="www.slashdot.org" or $url="www.slashdot.org." they would get $sections = array ("www", "slashdot", "org") or $sections = array("www", "slashdot", "org", "") - and they discard empty strings for tidiness
so you'd have to suddently patch every DNS server in existance at the same time for "." to be it's own TLD
Actually Yes, I would have to dig it up - but I submitted it to YRO [and they _always_ reject my articles.. bastages]
anyway - it FORCE INSTALLS "Viewpoint Media Player" which contains unique user tracking stuff - try and delete it and next time you run AIM it force installs it back in. This is just one of many infractions
I'm sorry, but out of all 4 systems I am on (the big ones, ICQ, AIM, Y!, MSN) ICQ has the _MOST_ activity and the most users on at any one time - and has the least "slack" contacts who are rarely on
The problem with that is most people who are going to be using linux boxes that would fall for that will receive "Access Denied" nine trillion times and just end up only deleteing their own home directory.
Then their administrator get's to be a BOFH to them.
I have worked on a great many projects, and as of late it's all been in the freespace 2 community. We stretched that engine to it's limits well before we go ahold of the source code, and while the source code project (For which I am the network programmer) has brough us a long way - it would be nothing without that which we already had:
Content
Sure nice and shiny is cool, but that isn't what really gets you the money or the ratings. Nice graphics are just bonus points, gameplay is what get's you players. There are a great many games out there that I hate due to technical problems with them - and yet they have vast numbers of gamers (Counter Strike comes to mind).
The game industry isn't going to die, stop acting like chicken little.

Why has parent been modded down - this is an insightful comment

I've seen chips with the Rockwell Label on them inside:
Cisco Hardware
IBM Hardware
I think Nortel may use some rockwell designed and/or fabricated chips
Universities: Iowa State (Atanasoff-Berry Computer), University of Iowa (which is really high in ranks for medicine)
I do plan on leaving, none the less Rockwell Collins, Ames Lab, and ISU should have a little bit more pull than getting it that low of a rank
