Never give your brain-node's IP to Slashdot!!!
The real-life equivalent, never work for a corporation.
The requests for meeting attendance, corporate emails, congratulating Julie for her baby or bob for bowling 100, followed by warnings of impending doom for the company if the CEO cannot get internet access to reach E-Bay, make a potential slashdotting look like a smoking break in comparision.
You would charged with running a terrorist training program and thrown in jail without being able to talk to lawyer because you would be considered an enemy combatant.
Syndicate was AWESOME. Syndicate is one of the top PC games of all time in my books. The intro was nothing short of orgasmic, and the cutscenes were gorgeous.
Please, don't restrain yourself, tell us how you really feel.:)
I clicked on the "Fight of the month" and Iraq beat the USA. I guess we will be bowing to our new overlord, Saddam Hussien. At least we will not have to hear any more speeches about Terror from George Bush!
What I would be interested in is a computer that can actuallly see and show those 3-D pictures. You know the ones that you have to look at just right, while crossing your eyes and standing on your head to convince yourself that may be looking at an elephant.
Do we need another "How to be a Computer Person book?"
I am already a programmer, and systems technician, I don't need a book on that any more than Snoop Doggy Dog needs a book on how to be a rapper. How about a book on "How to be a CEO", now that is something that I would want.

The problem with the curve is that is not used to bring the grades of people down but the bring the grades of people up. Take a class where the highest grade would be a 72. The test was hard but the Prof looks bad if he fails everyone, so bam, the curve adjusts those poor scores and know everyone is happy(well of them are happy) because instead of failing they are getting an A or a B.
In other words, if you need a curve it is because you have a BS teacher who either cannot teach the material, or the test does not reflect the material taught.
Building: Game Expansion
Requirements: Must be part of the Blizzard faction

The WC3 Expansion is upgrade from WC3. When it is completed, it brings about an increase in gold production, fan loyalty(like "Blizzard rocks"), and opposing commentary(ex: "This is unoriginial"). It also extends the life of WC3 for 4 to 6 months.
Just to point this out, it can be more expensive to purchase a 30 year old copyrighted book because chances are that it is no longer in publication. I am a fan of Glen Cook, and I have been trying to track down his older books, but most if not all of his books are not being published. Your only real option is used books, and then it depends on availability, quality and price. Some of them I can find cheap, some I would up paying $20 or $30 dollars for a old beat up paperback.
Press Release: While Microsoft has once again renamed a software package, it is still known through the slashdot community as the "Same Old Shit" or SOS to the business community.
There is also the whole pro-walking thing which lobbied pretty hard against it. They believe this device would cause everyone to get fat.
Fat? Fat? What they hell are the talking about? Most US citzen's are obese if not outright fat. If they have a concern is that people would get FATTER. Never mind that they live 10 minutes from work.
I would more likely expect people to be whipping a Segway out the back of their SUV, so that they would not have to waddle the half-block to the front entrance avoiding any pretense of exercising.
Well, the best way to get a job, is to HAVE A JOB! I know, it is a catch-22 but it follows the logic of if you were any good someone would have hired you. It is an asine attitude but what can you do.
Most manager's don't at certifications so much as a evaluation of skill any more. Usually if you have 6 years of experience in something and get certified in that you will look good, rather than you have been in the business 6 years, got certified in JYMBO software, but have no experience.
So what I am basically saying is, get certified in the stuff you already know, people will respect that more than, the Course to Pass Exam
you may be operating within the legal framework of (for instance) the US, but does that give you the rights to close down a process on a machine in Iraq, or North Korea, or any other country for that mattter?

Seems pretty obvious what would happen.

What is happening to Slashdot's high journalistic standards?
Which ones? They ones that are in relation to a star writer from the Washington Post, or the ones related to Matt Druge report(Monica Lewinsky)!

Now every AOE, AOM, and WC3 player is going to be out there screaming that they should be a Navy captain because they more experience in RT exercises.

Yeah but the Perot community has larger ears so is more likely to "Hear" the call!
Ducks!
I do know what is outside! Someone set up a camera on the Internet so I could see what its' like out there. It almost looks 3D!
Gary! I can see it is hanging a little to the left today!

No, no that is what they call pics of Natalie Portman.

Only if your name is George Bush
