Mod parent up and GP down. Postscript is a turing-complete programming language. It's as far from devoid of code execution features as one can get. One of my favourites is the randomly generated postscript maze. Open it, get a maze, print it on a postscript printer and get a new maze every time.
It would also help grow the number of linux gamers: if someone using linux wants to play Source engine games now they have to use WINE (reports itself as Windows) or use Windows. With Steam+Source on Linux the "anonymous usage statistics" collection would report the computer as being Linux. The downloads of the Linux Steam clients will be reported.
Eyjafjallajokull: Eyja - Island. Fjalla - Mountain. Jokull - Glaicer. Island-mountain-glaicer. Icelandic is an agglutinative language like German, so words get strung together to make bigger words.
And anyone who creates a security system that can be bypassed simply by knowing the operational details (not keys/passwords, but procedures) is incompetent and should share the cell.
I actually like blender's interface, but I only started liking it once I made a key observation: Right-hand mouse, left-hand keyboard. All the time. It's not just mouse (like many other 3d programs), or just keyboard, pretty much everything uses both.
I do roughly that. I use "strong-password-2.718281828459" "strong-password-3.1415926535" "strong-password-1.6180339887" and so-on and so forth. It goes from "guess the 20-character random string" to guess the constant of the month.
The day they did OMG Ponies was great. All the jokes had a theme (ponies), everything reported on had ponies on it. It was easy to tell what was fake, the site was sparkly pink, and as things got more and more ridiculous through the course of the day it became more and more funny.
The last few years have been far less coherent. They would be better served by posting a few funny joke stories, instead of a deluge of mediocre ones. Brevity being the soul of wit and such. Failing that, come up with a theme. It could be anything. Slashdot: Deodorant edition. Air-freshening heat sinks, mice that clean your hands, etc, etc. It's a theme, and just like the Ponies one it's something most slashdotters have little to no experience with.
First, I've seen the same post in other "cloud computing" discussions, so it's a joke.
Second, this appears to be an extension of Poe's law: No matter how stupid a statement may seem to be someone will believe it to be real.
Except for the bits where there's a guy in your camp in DA who wants you to go find his ancestral home. You will! Great, as soon as you [download content button] we can get going.

Take the platters out and go to town with a sledgehammer/sandpaper.

Woman has Persistent Sexual Arousal Syndrome, now knows what it's like to be a man.
Probably. It's still a cheap massage.
My health insurance covers a chiropractor, and not a massage. I'll see the cheaper (for me) quack and just schedule a massage there.

Actually, I sort-of don't. Every few months I wrap around and do the next 10 decimals of the appropriate constant.

Well, it is the Library of CONGRESS.
I like GMusicBrowser. It's designed for large library support with customizable layouts, so long startups and poor layouts aren't really concerns.
Python: Oh, I fixed that last night, it's all ready in the repo.

It's the fake black hole video site.
That's ok, you don't have any friends.
We have kibibytes already. They're now using those for the base 2 measurements, instead of kilo.
Flattr looks set to become a decent micro-payment system, but it's still in closed beta.
Yeah, and you keep running into the second one (for shale). More wasted time with loading screens.

Well, since the whole idea of "dark matter" is matter that interacts primarily with gravity and very, very weakly through the other forces; yes.

I use a left-handed dvorak layout you insensitive clod!
