Look dawg, this is how it be k? The data done be going all up in the bricks and shit, and it don't know what the fuck be going on, it's just all like "wtf man why am i in this brick" and then the conductive material is all "shut your bitchass mouth and replicate", this makes your data be in multiple hoods like when you have two baby mamas and they are in different towns and shit. Then if something bad happens and they don't give you access to that data no mo', you can just get a new receptacle and have that shit under control.
There's a better link here.
Also, that comic is probably the funniest comic/webcomic that I have ever read. Have a link to the archive here, and enjoy it with great enthusiasm.
That's why I put down "wayport-style":) I'm familiar with wayport since some of the McDonald's in my town(I'm their IT guy) are starting to roll out wireless along with the ability to take credit cards, and I couldn't remember who provided the wireless there, only that is costs money.
Being a poser, duh. The hipster scene is up-and-coming down south, and I'm trying to get in on the ground floor. It's like the dot-com bubble all over again, but you get girls instead of investors.
Ah, excellent. If you ever happen to come to south Louisiana, try going to a CC's coffee, it's where aaallll the cool kids go for coffee, and feels much more relaxing than Starbucks, and free wireless, as opposed to the wayport-style stuff that Starbucks uses. CC's is run by community coffee, the best coffee that exists.
Semi-relevant question for you. Do starbucks everywhere carry the New York Times? For once, I might enter that domain of pretentiousness to grab the paper with the ad, instead of my beloved CC's coffee.
Oh come on man, what self-respecting geek wasn't in Boy Scouts, or your country's equivalent? You get to learn all sorts of hardware hacking(building stuff/rigging up all kinds of crazy crap), and social engineering(beef jerky is like smokes in prison).
As awful and nerdy as it may be, even for slashdot, I'd probably so see this if they did it somewhere near Louisiana. Final Fantasy was the first RPG I ever played, and staying up until past midnight on the New Year's eve after the Christmas on which I receive it is one of my fonder memories. I just wanna feel the tingle of hearing a real orchestra play the fight music, just once.
If you run windows, and are willing to drop the 50 bucks, the newest version of netnanny will do much of what you are looking for. I've never thought much of the commercial monitoring software, but that is some good stuff. I installed it on a client's computer about a year ago, and set up different logins, etc, times of use.
The only problem I see here is that you may have multiple computers, which may be the case, but I don't see it mentioned in the initial post. If that's the case, the whole situation becomes more expensive, and I don't have any good suggestions for ya.
Keep in mind that we are not all shut-in geeks, some of us are also jogging/camping/hiking geeks, like me:) I work on a computer 40 hours a week, then go to class, I tend to get out and active on the weekend, to avoid having the dreaded "teddy bear" look.
You know what, I don't think that "Neat as all hell" is a strong enough phrase for what that would be. I personally only have about ~12 gigs of music and a 10gig 2nd gen ipod, but that sounds like a project for me once I start getting into some EE courses at LSU.
I'm willing to venture a guess that he was taking a shot at the bleeding edge geeks who look for the smallest/fastest solution around. From the responses, it looks like his shot hit home:)
Couldn't an enterprising young naive college student(me) choose, of my own free will, to start a non-profit club of "low-price seekers", make pamphlets of good deals, then decide that since I love Wal-mart sooooooo much, that I'd like to let people know how awesome the company is?
Then, of course, take a portion of the money saved by wal-mart paying the lower price and buying that Nissan 350z I've been lusting over for the past year.
I've got 95%mp3 and a few albums in mpc(musepack) to see if I can tell a difference between them with my pc's logitech z-640 5.1 setup. Hell, I might even give it a shot under ubunto or whatever the flavor-of-the-week is instead of XP, but I have horrible luck
a)getting ati drivers working and
b)shuttle 5.1 sound drivers(it's supposed to be easy, but I've had a bitch and a half of trouble getting it to work the last time I tried it.)
Slashdot Mirror
Correction: Slashdot was wanged.

Well, the story submitter obviously remembed to set the "evil bit", as he did go off on something that was covered. :)
And lawsuits! Remember, this White House loves to blame everything on lawsuits.
I'm pretty sure everyone likes to blame things of lawsuits.
I own a Moof shirt, but I think we are talking about different Moofs :)

Ok, I've from south Louisiana, since when are there multiple slashdotters down here? You can reach me on AIM at boldasnewname.

The Openperl IDE here is a pretty spiffy Perl IDE, although it is windows only.

Maybe because this is the company's internal IT practices, basically
I know I'm not the only person who read that as infernal IT practices.
I'm not even old and that stuff is familiar to me :( I'll never get that COBOL job I've always dreamed of now!
Nah, man, his goes up to 11!

I believe a statement like this is called a "self fulfilling prophecy".,
Nope, I believe a statement like that would be coming from the "holy-crap-sex-on-a-stick" department.
