Gee, I thought use one browser window because I rarely have more than ten pages open at a time, and it's easier to switch between them. Now I know it's just because I'm stupid! Thanks Mr. Sokol!
Better yet, why not just write a short sentence or two of comments describing what the regex does? This makes it vastly easier to read your code and catch mistakes.
It is a big deal when you can do it without root permissions. Running a webserver on Linux that allows clients ssh access? Oops, one of them can take down the whole box. You're right that it's not very on-topic, though...
Interesting stuff. It's not clear whether it's the Gentoo patches or the move to 2.4.26 that fixes the bug, though. Hang on, I'll check...I run Gentoo, but always with a vanilla kernel.
What is our culture going to give to the world? Avril Lavigne, 50 Cent? Where's *our* Aretha, our Doors, our Zeppelin?
Exactly what I've been saying. I don't think "pop" music has been worse than this in the history of the world.
Remember when "classical" music and opera was all the rage? We still consider the people who wrote those geniuses. Fast forward to jazz, blues, early rock and you've still got respectable, talented musicians. What happened to Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, the Beatles even?
Instead, popular music today is defined almost solely by charisma, with singing ability a distant second, and real musicianship totally forgotten. I was watching something on VH1 with my girlfriend the other day out of boredom, and one of the segments featured some American Idol "stars". Wow, these people suck. The women are trying so hard to embellish that they're totally off-key, and the men are just bland.
Even the grassroots, counter-culture type music has been corrupted. Take hip-hop (I hate it, but I have some respect anyway) and punk rock: bought, diluted, and sold to the masses. *sigh* No one writes their own music anymore.
Have you tried just booting into Linux and mounting it? If the partition table is trashed too, you can go into cfdisk and try to recreate it. Or grab a Mandrake installer ISO. The last one I tried (9.something) had a nice partitioner that had a "fix partition table" option.
A little Googling found fixdisktable. Link 1 and 2.
DNF to be released in 2005? Wouldn't that be a shock. Personally I would be curious to see if it's any good compared to HL2 or Doom III. I may purchase it.. then again maybe not. The excitement isn't what it used to be for DNF:-)
I'm betting it'll be a repeat of Daikatana. Hyped, delayed, hyped, delayed, delayed some more, then finally released and it's crap.
It is unfortunate. I think Qt would be adopted as the standard toolkit if it wasn't for the license restriction on commercial use. And the strange lack of a downloadable GPL'd Windows library.
Melt them, rather. I remember reading an article long ago on a Canadian "black hat hacker" kind of site, which had details on how to set up a system where your hard drives would be melted with thermite at the flip of a switch. For the very paranoid:)

So why not php? What makes php a poor choice as opposed to say perl, python, ruby, vb.net or any other scripted language?
What makes any scripting language a good choice for 3D graphics?
I think the problem here is the unreliability of cell phones. It's not trivial to have a fault-tolerant encrypted stream like it is a plain audio stream. With traditional encryption methods, lose one bit and you're screwed.

So I assume you vote Libertarian? The Republicans haven't given anything more than lip service to the idea of "small government" in many years.

There has definitely been a shortage for a few years, but hit up your local hippie festivals and you can find pretty much anything :)

Yep, it kills 2.6.6.

Right you are. Not to mention the fact that Dungeon Siege sucked...
Um, I would imagine that it's a reference to resurrection, seeing as this is a remake. How is that obscure?
More likely a typo. Just replace the , with a ;

Good luck.

It's not really "calling home". It's requesting specific information from Google.
Same for FireFox 0.9RC on Windows.
Same here. I installed Firefox for my girlfriend after cleaning out tons of spyware, and within a couple days, she loved tabbed browsing :)

Look at the prices for Visual Studio, etc. There's lots of software that Microsoft charges hundreds of dollars for, when the *nix equivalent is Free.

So, after the FCC did nothing, you didn't think to contact the local police? You've got a nice case of extortion right there.
Brute force scanning, yes. But plug into the IANA/ARIN/etc databases and you can narrow it down quite a bit.
Not the best example, because SQL is an acronym (pronounced 'sequel'), depending on who you ask.
