This is really interesting. Some of the photos on the blog include EXIF information, such as the camera model that took the photo and the date and time the photo was shot. Just more inadvertent information leakage.

P.S. I used the command-line program exif to view the EXIF information, but I am sure any decent digital photo software on Windows can view it too.
I write this trying not to sound pretentious, but read it as you will. The Creative Writing department at my University has four separate computer labs, all with one-year-old (or less) computers. One lab has your standard Windows XP Professional machines. Another lab has about ten G5s, three of which have dual 20-inch Cinema displays and one which has dual 23-inch Cinema displays. No one in the department bothers to use this lab, but occasionally graduate students from computer science work there. The third lab has 25 Dell Precision 560s running Debian GNU/Linux (unstable). The final lab, and the only one that shows any wear (from its constant use) is the FreeBSD 5.2.1 lab. Each machine is powered by a dual Itanium 2. One of these machines is dedicated to running dictd and therefore runs headless, but the others run a heavily modified GNOME 2.6 desktop.
The four labs are kept separate to reduce inter-operating system fornication.
So, like, I was wondering why there has yet to be a story about Martha Stewart's jailtime posted here. I mean, every other story that gets posted to the New York Times finds its way on here within a couple hours. Anything involving Martha Stewart is definitely "news for nerds." (Especially her crème brûlée with mascarpone. I mean, what other dessert would you want to screw?)
In reference to your comment on Monday, Jun 21, "OpenOffice.org does a great job of opening the PowerPoint slideshow", I thought I would point out that Microsoft PowerPoint also does a terrific job of opening the PowerPoint slideshow. I don't think your OSDN managers would like to see more blatant advertisements in your "stories."
Please contact me when you have moved from the "proof of concept" phase into the "production" phase, because I am interested in making a large purchase of your product to run on our systems. I am a systems consultant for a Fortune 500 e-commerce company.
In reference to your message, "this is good news for Slashdotters, as this online archival project will provide a plethora of background material for articles and comments" of the twelth of June, I wanted to let you know that I am using your new archival material as a source for my comments already!
It seems, unfortunately, that comment #9393632, story #110689, is wrong. Simply take
v_0=1, r(v):=(1+\cos v)/\sqrt v, \rho(v)=3/\sqrt v, and \phi(v)=v.
I imagine that such a mistake has heavy consequences.

That's nothing. Last night I wrote a little program that load tests Google.

I'll turn this around and say "at least now I can justify the PalmOne Tungsten C. Why not use an OS actually designed for handhelds?

P.S. Hopefully it will be available as a patch to the Original Edition.
Here is the Google File System (GFS) paper from SOSP '03 that you requested.

P.S. Blame Axl for letting RedHat steal the GFS acronym for their Global File System!

Why would I install a "toolbar" to clean out spyware? Shouldn't I use an application dedicated to that?
