Sysadmins should expect vulnerabilities to be exploited over the holidays, and so should users. This is the period when script kiddies and crackers think the machines are least-watched.
IOW, don't expect to be sitting behind your quantum computer's 50" foldable display while wearing your invisibility cloak and surfing at 200mbps anytime real soon.
"Does anyone else think that the problems with getting something on Mars kinda gives validity to the whole "we didn't really land on the moon" conspiracy theory?"
Certainly, in exactly the same way I should be expected to drive 10 miles in a blizzard because I have shoveled my sidewalk.
English isn't evolving, it's being surgically altered. Don't try to fool yourself that some kind of natural selection has a damn thing to do with "bling bling" being in the dictionary instead of a dictionary of slang.
What other hope does a town with a name like Kecksburg have of ever being noticed? Just saying it makes my head hurt. Kecksburg. Kecksburg. Kecksburg...
...but you lost me at the first mention of a $99 keyboard. If "understand[ing] what you are doing and why" means being stupid with your money, please count me out.
I still use the old IBM keyboard I got at a computer show for $9 four years ago - you know, the ones you could just about hammer nails with and still use.
People didn't used to need telephones. Go live without one for a while, let us know how that goes. Or sanitation. Outhouses were good enough for our forebears, were they not? Handwashing is for sissies!
My browser does handle backslashes properly. It treats them as part of the requested document instead of pretending that we all agreed they could be treated as a delimiter.

I read it as "self-healing" at first. IBM, move over, the technology leader in caffeinated beverages is here!

Nobody with a perfect photographic memory can ever be anything but the janitor, if that?
Stupid is as stupid does.

"...where customers can listen to -- but not own -- as many songs as they want..."
Isn't this the model RIAA already has in place for CD-based distribution?
Everyone remembers "Amazon Women on the Moon", right?
"Seriously, the people we send to the moon and especially Mars need to work as a unit and either get along or be married couples."
And why wasn't this modded as "Funny?"

Who knew "The Dot" could really take such punishment?
for an Al Franken guest spot on The Simpsons.
where I can go to take the certification test, so I can frame one of these babies on the cubicle wall.
The only true "35mm" DSLRs are the ones with full-frame sensors. Check prices, and you'll see that we're nowhere near a $1,000 35mm DSLR yet.

Been there, done that, got the t-sh... oh wait, that was part of the problem, wasn't it?

I was going to rebut, but my ride is here - gotta go before he starts flinging feces at the neighbors.
Sure, buy an electric car and become part of the problem.
Reports that blipverts are causing unwanted side effects in some part of the population are, at this point, only rumor.
