White Mountain datacenter in downtown Stockholm, Sweden. It is located in a bunker 30 meters under solid bedrock. It was a cold war bunker that was converted into this datacenter and is said to be able to withstand a Hydrogen bomb blast.

Seriously, this is not any more strange than NASA doing SETI. Or why should it be?
"Bush's IQ score is estimated to be above 120, which suggests an intelligence in the top 10 per cent of the population."
What was the baseline? Most countries have had greatly inflated IQ values during the last 100 years. The reason is improved and more wide-spread education and not biological improvements per se.
So, if someone had his IQ tested in the 60s, it would mean that much today. The values were relevant at the time and cannot be compared across too distant time spans.
I don't believe this. Secretaries aren't the only source of information. The simply "shot the pianist" in order to cover up their incompetence. She should sue them for libel. Perhaps a $100 million lawsuit?
"Thompson may petition the Court, but may do so only through the assistance of counsel, whenever such counsel determines that the filing has merit and can be filed in good faith. However, Thompsons frivolous and abusive filings must immediately come to an end. Further, if Thompson submits a filing in violation of this order, he may be subjected to contempt proceedings or other appropriate sanctions. All other pending petitions, motions, and requests for relief filed by Thompson are hereby denied without prejudice."
After reading that Court Order, I must say that this man needs professional help. No, I am not talking about legal help. The examples provided by the Court are very convincing.
"only 313 of the 977"?! WTF, that is a lot!
Bl00dy stupid argument. I am very happy that they took care of those and for the time being couldn't care less about the other warez sites!
Go, get them.
You have heard about some of these pet projects, they really donâ(TM)t make a whole lot of sense and sometimes these dollars go to projects that have little or nothing to do with the public good. Things like fruit fly research in Paris, France. I kid you not.
While, the black people in Poland most likely don't make up a large proportion in Poland to be targeted by ads, it was a stupid decision to photoshop that dude into oblivion.
Why not just use another picture?
Well, probably Microsoft wants to keep a global profile, which is why you also see an Asian too.
"It probably wouldn't be all that bad to get it running on the nvidia binary drivers, but the chance of it working correctly and acceptably anywhere else would be small."
Hmmm, "anywhere else"? That can only be ATI Radeon drivers, as the Intel GPU aren't up to specs I guess.

That is announced on ... Friday 13th. Halloween is over, so could it be they needed another telling day?
Sorry, but is NOT hard to guess. I guess Ngbu9E. See, it is not that difficult after all.

This has been in the school books since 1970s, at least. For starters - look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Rift_Valley and then do a Google search for "Rift Valley"

Bye all, I have no longer any posts to make. Maybe I will lurk. It has been fun though. /G3ckoG33k
From a fairly recent Court Order
"Thompson may petition the Court, but may do so only through the assistance of counsel, whenever such counsel determines that the filing has merit and can be filed in good faith. However, Thompsons frivolous and abusive filings must immediately come to an end. Further, if Thompson submits a filing in violation of this order, he may be subjected to contempt proceedings or other appropriate sanctions.

Given the demographics of /. readers, as seen here http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/www.slashdot.org#demographics, I wouldn't be surprised if many here considers the original Doom series great art! :)

"Sarah Palin Get $2M To Predict Jesus Arrival".
Naw, that was fake.
You have heard about some of these pet projects, they really donâ(TM)t make a whole lot of sense and sometimes these dollars go to projects that have little or nothing to do with the public good. Things like fruit fly research in Paris, France. I kid you not.
Yup, that one was for real. I kid you not.
He should, of course, just tell the truth. Dead pan straight. Perhaps with a suitably (but fake) embarrassed laughter.
In this case it would not hurt at all. A surprised, but friendly buyer. That's it.
Move on. Nothing here to see.

You don't think they got an exceptionally nice deal with Microsoft thanks to that?!
I am sure they did. Talk about leverage.

So, thanks AMD/ATI!

Huh? Why don't you just turn it upside down?
This is why I rely on statistics.
How about Debian, which automatically includes dpkg, aptitude and synaptic?
From my experience it would take care of most aything.
And with a good admin, even more.

Thanks id Software, for the GPL of Doom/Quake. Right now it is a serious blessing! Thanks!
While I don't cheer the information, the frankness impresses me.
Cross them?! Cross them with what? Other tuna species? Piranhas? Cmdr Taco?
Or, make them angry? Why would they be, err... angry, at anything?
