...that there are two things that drive techology forward: Porn and War. Before you laugh, think about this internet that you're on right now. It was a military network, set up so that we could maintain communications, even in the event of a nuclear attack. Then think about why it was expanded so much, because people needed more bandwith for streaming video, images, etc.
Think of all of those fancy moon rockets, which were produced on top of all the reasearch German Military engineers did. Even the safety glass in your car was invented for gas masks long before it was in a car.
When the next great leap in technology takes forward, it will be related either to (a)people killing each other or (b) people looking at each other naked.
Step Five:
After allowing Slashdot Monkeys to do write it, it races halfway across the desert, notices some specific terrain feature that someone named "Tr011 k1ng" wrote the code for navigating, then drives in a pattern that looks like "Fi0r5t P05t 0wnz0rz j000!!!!111" from the air.

I'd like to post an intelligent responce, but I need more info. Can I have some people send me a list of back doors they've created so that I can investigate further? thanks
I can see it already: The first game will be Linux h4x0r, where players must try to hack Linux onto a variety of devices before the dreaded injunctions come down. Players may get more time by submitting 25cent bribes to various legislators.
Steve Jobs: We need to file some more patents quickly. My stock options are dropping.
Terrified Employee: Well sir...umm...(looks around room) how about our round corners?
Jobs: Already in heavy use. You're fired
Employee 2: How about the idea of color coding computers to go with your decor?
Jobs: Nah, we already cornered the artist market. You're fired.
Employee 3: Well....how about this (picks up trash can)
Jobs: Brilliant! Get a picture of that to the Patent office as soon as possible.
SO microsoft is changing its interface yet again. Of all the CompE majors that I know here at school, every single one had their version of XP revert back to the old windows 95/98 look and feel. One of these days, people at microsoft and apple (and KDE and Gnome) will realize that people don't want a change in the interface every other release, and stick to their own standards.
Pollution and nuclear waste at least have some benefit to society. Pollution at least means that either someone got to where they needed to go, or some useful product was created. Nuclear waste means that an effecient method of producing electricity was used. Spam just means that someone has a permenant 12-inch stiffy and has given all of their money to Nigeria.
If you could meet a spammer, what would you say? What would you do? What caliber would you use? Would you want someone to do it for you? Is $10,000 a head too much?

Actually GW wouldn't be that bad of an idea. You see, Monkeys grow up doing that kind of stunts, grabbing vines and swinging, etc.

That's why I keep my Mutated Anthrax around. For squirel hunting.
Wow, someone one slashdot who admits when they're wrong. I think we may be at the start of a new era!
And knowing that what you work on will be used by more than 15 people worldwide

Ack! Foo! Run in circles, scream and shout!
Perhaps we won't have to worry about what google will do to them, perhaps the sheer force of a /.ing will do the trick
And I was going to go as a sharpshooter on the roof, but this is an even better idea!

They get paid to have sex with other good looking people. What's so horrible about it?
I never noticed this, but if you listen carefully to that sound that thing makes, it sounds a lot like "Jar Jar....Jar Jar"
Coincidence, I think not.
Qantas airline...definatly safe airline.
I've heard rumors that Joss is working on a spinoff based on Giles called "the ripper" I don't know much more about it, unfortunatly.
