I applaud you. Now I just pray that thousands of black turtleneck wearing, angst filled zealots dont' come streaming out of the coffee houses and launch a jihad against you. Latee' burns hurt a lot.
It's a shame there's no "Stupid" Moderation, so i'll just settle for giving you an over rated.
Mac OSX impresses me. Really does. All Mac OSs before then were craptacular. Have you ever tried to share files with other computers over appletalk? We had to do this on MacOS 9 in our English computer labs. Took 30 seconds to go through all the crap you had to go through just to log on, put your finished assignment in the drop box, and log out. That's not counting the time you'd spend waiting for the network. That wonderful Appletalk protocol. After class, I had to resist the urge to shout "I'M OVER HERE" every three seconds. I could have set my watch to the lag spikes, one every three seconds.
With windows 95, I just create a shortcut on the desktop that says "Teacher's folder" that points to my teacher's shared folder, and just copy it over. Worse case, I type in \\EnglishLab9Server\dropbox into IE and i'm there. Drag and drop in my paper, and i'm out of there.
Yes, windows sucks. But macs suck worse, except for OSX
So i got my brand new athlon XP 2200. I plug it in, put the fan thingie on, and it runs perfectly. Then I noticed the CPU was running at about 70 degrees. A week later, I heard a loud clunk and my computer went dead. It seems that the fans they make are so craptastically made that one of the blades bent enough to get itself jammed.
Why exactly would I be voiding my warrenty by switching to something better?

Bunnies aren't just cute like everybody supposes
They got them hoppy legs and twitchy little noses
And what's with all the carrots?
What do they need such good eyesight for anyway?
Bunnies, bunnies, it must be bunnies
I head over to slashdot thinking that for once, i can read news that doesn't have the word utilitarianism in it, but looks like my hopes are dashed:-(.
I have a phone like that. It has no call making ability, no call receiving ability, and no messenging of any kind. At first my freinds laughted at me, asking how much I payed for that brick, but they're just jealous that theirs are so small that they can fit between the seats of thier couch and weigh less than 10 pounds. The name of it is "Brick" and it only comes in a dark red color, but it's worth that small sacrifice for the privacy.

Despite what the RIAA et al would have you beleive, copying music is NOT piracy. Piracy is murder and robbery on the high seas. Piracy is if a group of people armed themselves, charged into a record store, and stole CDs while shooting at employees who tried to stop them. It is unfortunate that most people equate this with now with copyright infringement. The reason people do is decades of the recording industry telling us that copying music is the same as direct robbery and murder.
We could combine this with a way to make money, too!
You see, Mr. AsciiPr0n.com, there are people out there, people like us, who would link you and that would lead to your server melting. For a small fee, we could mirror your site. Don't think of it as extortion, think of it as....insurance
The Oslo district court ruled that prosecutors had failed to prove that Johansen's program had been used for illegal copying of DVDs, saying he was entitled to copy legally purchased DVDs.
That's a great concept! The idea that he can use what he bought in a fair manner.... this is an interesting concept, one that we should try here in the US! Since he's using it in a manner that is fair to him, we should call it the fair use act! Imagine the possibilities!
When I first read it, I read it as "GTA: Sim City". I thought, damn, that would be cool. Create a city in Simcity 4000, then export it to GTA, and run around killing stuff. Kind of like "Streets of Sim City", only with more mindless violence. But alas, same old game, new city.
There are a number of ways in which the evil bit may be set. Attack
applications may use a suitable API to request that it be set.
Systems that do not have other mechanisms MUST provide such an API;
attack programs MUST use it.
In other news, Tom Ridge is introducing a bill into congress that requires all sleeper cell terrorists duct tape to themselves a peice of orange plastic so they can be easily identified and arrested by Federal authorities.
From the article: "When I play an online game, I can't be the best because there are some college kids out there spending 14 hours a day."
What college is this that you can play games 14 hours a day and still pass? Everyone I know that did that either failed out or is taking so few credits they might as well have dropped out. College kids, I fear not. 12-year olds who have nothing to do all summer long, I fear.
It's a shame that the awards are for the UK only. Then again, it would be boring to see an awards show where every award either went to John Ashcroft or the MPAA / RIAA.
Alright class, welcome to CS 95, how not to do security. Now open your text books to chapter 1: IIS. For homework, I want you all to draw a diagram of what you think about the security of that product, and please, no more pictures of the goatse man like last year.
Don't claim that your 4 straight headshots halfway across the map with your AK had anything to do with skill. It was either luck or hacks, and if you claim it was skill, we're going to assume it was your skill in getting past the cheat detectors.
Also, near the end of the round when half the CTs are watching you, and you see someone 200 ft away, at least zoom in before you have you snap to his head, fire, then snap back to where you were going. I mean, give us some credit.
but the point is that it would be too hard to track down every server being used as a relay and to block them. What if Microsoft.com has that port open? Can you see a country blocking microsoft?

Assuming there are such, as it's currently being hit with a DoS. I think it's the first time a website has deserved a /.'ing.
I can think of some others
Actually, it's because when it's round, you can move it easier around construction zones...you can just roll it.
oh yeah, like that's a useful invention
Bunnies aren't just cute like everybody supposes

Free movies, of course
