Oh don't hand it over just yet. I don't think that was in the book, just a cheesy Glen Yarborough song from the ueber cheesy Rankin-Bass animated version of Return of the King. Of course, Glen used Tolkien's poems as lyrics in the Rankin-Bass production of The Hobbit, so it might be in the book after all, in which case maybe _I_ should hand in my Tolkien geek card...
"Now is the time for all good men to come to their country's aid" boils down to about 14 content items.
Yeah, but it's 14 content items out of a much bigger set than mere characters. There are 96 printable characters I can make with my keyboard including space and tab, but the Oxford English Dictionary lists about 616,500 word forms. A ten character password gives about 6.648 times 10 to the 19th possible combinations, while a ten word passphrase gives about 7.931 times 10 to the 57th combinations. Quite a few orders of magnitude greater, even if you do try to check for common strings of words like "is a". Heck, you'd have to come up with a awful lot of those anyway. And you'd also have to factor in the number of even marginally multilingual people out there who might come up with something like "and there's a little verde man in my kopf". And all that's only taking English speakers into account.
i'm just surprised no one has yet referenced the total perspective vortex zaphod was subjected to, which extrapolated the whole of existence from a piece of fairy cake.
All the X-WMs look shabby, slapdash and incomplete compared to MacOSX and even, dare I say it... WinXP.
i think windowmaker looks pretty slick. i also like gnome, but i'll agree that that has a number of rough edges. but windowmaker is pretty tight in my opinion. kde and gnome are far from being "all" of the X-WMs available.
Baldur's Gate is a city in the Sword Coast area of the geographical area known as Faerûn on the world of Toril in the campaign setting of Forgotten Realms for D&D.
- The Hobbit "holes" are not houses built within a hill, but rather houses built near hills, standalone.
i just wanted to nitpick this nitpick. a lot of hobbits lived in standalone structures. only the very rich and very poor hobbits still lived in traditional hobbit holes.
It's going to be a trial of Mulder, which will involve several flashbacks.
or perhaps the lone gunmen will appear alive to testify against mulder, all in full body respirators with horribly burned faces and completely paralysed, able to communicate only by beeping once for yes and twice for no. this will be the framing device for the flashbacks.
Perl has rightfully been called a write only language
gosh, i'm tired of hearing this.
if you develop some actual coding discipline, you can write very maintanable code in perl. use generous ammounts of whitespace, develop style rules for yourself and stick to them religiously, use descriptive full word variable names, separate compound statements into easier to understand (and easier to insert stuff between) smaller ones and of course take advantage of perl's '-w' and 'use strict' features. and if you think something still isn't clear, then for pete's sake comment it! don't blame poor coding practices on the language itself. you can just as easily write nasty unreadable code in c.
Slashdot Mirror
Yes, because Geoffrey McGivern and David Dixon are secretly the same person.
He's already been in a number of movies.
his imdb entry
and then we can all listen to Stravinsky whle using it

You recognised the original quote, but not the followup? Inconceivable, indeed!
Frodo of the Nine Fingers
And the Ring of Doom
Why does he have nine fingers?
Where is the Ring of Doom?
nowadays they can just say 'crap', so they don't need feldercarb anymore.

bo'ed out? what, did he forget to apply deodorant that day?
oh, don't lump rod and barry together. rod's hardcore, barry's a marshmallow.
rod stewart and neil diamond, now, that would rock!

it wasn't alan rickman who was leonardo leonardo, it was alec baldwin. but i agree. adult swim should pick it up and order new episodes.
