Had to wait for a new dynamic IP so I could grab the patch from Windows Catalog without RPC rebooting the damn system. Still managed to crash about 4 times before I managed that. Luckily I caught TFTP at the firewall so I never actually got msblast.exe
"So there, we have figured out, go back to bed America, your government has figured out how it all transpired. Go back to bed America, you government is in control again. Here, here's American Gladiators. Watch this, shut up! Go back to bed America, here's American Gladiators. Here's 56 channels of it.

Yeah, that's insightful considering that a single high-quality shot on my camera is over 2MB (4MP compressed, 11MB TIFF). Never mind 6MP images as mentioned in the article.
We all know no one will ever need more than 640K of RAM, either.
I realized that XP was just God-awful slow and decided I wanted to restore the original WinMe (since I wasn't using it for anything other than a few old games) and give away the XP CD to someone who would actually use it.
Sorry, what? XP may be slow compared to Win2k (debatable) or Linux but WinME is utter crap. It's buggy, unstable, and unsupported. If you're looking for a pure gaming OS, Win98SE is your best choice.
I don't mind so much the fact that you can't have servlet-like objects which handle entire sections of your URLspace (as opposed to one URL -- how very un-spider-friendly.
As someone who lives in a low-density area of the UK, I really hope this floats. BT and Blueyonder (UK cable company) will never roll our broadband to this area because it wouldn't be profitable.

Johnny Mnemonic sucked. I love Gibson, all of his books are genius but their transition to film has always failed. One day I will track down New Rose Hotel even though it too enjoys the William Gibson curse.
Gibson maintains that JM was not his fault:
[JM as I wrote it, and Longo shot it, is only available as the published screenplay (but quite readily available as that). I only agreed to publish it, in the first place, because I wanted to be in the position to demonstrate the difference between what I wrote, and we shot, and what they released. I doubt there's even a remote possibility of there ever being a restored "director's cut", although the Japanese version of the DVD is a little closer to our intention.]

Q: How many slashdotters does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: None, the bulb gets screwed as soon as it is slashdotted.
Cool, I'll check it out.
Very true. I downloaded 1600 messages with Thunderbird today (backlog) and only about 30 weren't spam. That's a huge waste of bandwidth.
Kind of interesting

I got hit too :/

I've been following his blog since he wrote "The Unreal Estate Boom" for Wired.
I haven't even played Everquest but it still makes for interesting reading.

Weird, worked fine in firebird.

I thought of making a program much like SCO check. It would use my patented method to scour the source and remove any SCO code.
How does it find 'em? That's a trade secret!

Makes me glad I just switched to Postgresql 7.3.x :}
I'd much rather they copied the OSX interface.
In school, my teacher affectionately likened my penmanship to "a drunken spider lurching across the page".
That was before I owned a computer.
