When the sports reporter gets a bit drunk and takes photos of some less-than-dressed female? What about a shot that just doesn't turn out right, for that matter? Automatic posting of photos is almost never a good idea.
Not that impressive. The entire UI of Mozilla is written in XUL+JavaScript, just like that Minesweeper clone, and could be put online in the same way.

Er, not quite. The additional cost can only be "no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution", and you're certainly not required to charge anything for distribution.
My father was in the hospital on life support for over a month after severe heart problems (he recovered very well, by the way). I was living in a small room intended for family of ICU patients the whole time, and I read Slashdot a lot during the stay.
In addition, a unified API akin to.NET or Cocoa, instead of these 20 or so different APIs which require that I install all of them since everybody likes to code for different ones instead of coding to a standard.
At one point, I thought that phone services like Tellme were very cool. I was in the bathroom with a cordless phone, listening to the news. Somehow, the phone ended up in the toilet. It actually worked after being dried a bit, but it still smells a bit like pee.
Something similar happened to me once. I had a (production) web application, with accounts and the like. I hadn't yet programmed a "change password" feature, and I wanted to change mine. Instead of doing the right thing and programming that bloody feature, I ran an SQL query: "UPDATE users SET password=MD5('somepassword')". The whole thing ended with making people get a new password assigned by email, and the official excuse was verifying peoples' email addresses.
So what about the thousands (millions?) of servers currently running some flavor of Unix? Installing Windows on all of them would be incredibly expensive and cost billions.
I don't see how some free software versions can be sued out of existance. As long as Unix-like systems retain the everything's-a-file system, a very simple program or even script eill be able to copy CDs. Or are you saying that Unix itself will be sued out of existence?
By that definition, English is a programming language too. It has a formal syntax (some people extend it, but the same goes for most other programming languages), and it conveys information.
But is deprecated markup which won't even be in future versions of HTML. Proper HTML, like and doesn't specify appearance (italic and bold), it specifies meaning (emphasized and strongly emphasized). A visual browser could make flash and be red instead of italic, and that would be perfectly within the HTML standard.

Editing isn't hard, it's the compiling that'll get you.
Can we put it in cans and eat it?
But I want to be able to find my porn!
No, Kareer.

A flexible layout does not reduce compatibility with any browsers.
What about pr0n?
Until someone files a patent for currency-detection software in the EU.

Seems like every other week, we get a story about IBM telling SCO to put up or shut up. How many of them have we had now?
"Log off X"... wow, looks like Windows' GUI to me. XPDE must have made some significant leaps!
My brain implant lets me see my computer screen without using my eyes at all.
Then how do you let a friend borrow your card?
Does /. have the legal right to talk about this bill? I mean, that fact might be copyrighted!
