You didn't realise that cdparanoia takes a parameter telling it which tracks to rip (e.g. "cdparanoia 2-" for track 2 to last track). This is explained in the first few lines of the manual. So you rummaged around the raw source code of cdparanoia and changed it before you looked at its manual.
You used diff without the -U option, and didn't even tell us which file you commented out the exit() in. Which file is it? What's the context?
You used a C++/C99 comment delimiter in what is a C89 source code. Hope you have have a lax compiler that defaults to C99 or ignores standards, because it'll choke on that.
You made a web-page about it and posted it on Slashdot, no doubt causing much wailing and gnashing of teeth from people even less experienced at editing source code than you, when all they needed to do was run the cdparanoia command differently.
But far, far worse than any of those crimes....
You bought an Avril Lavigne CD! Dude, how could you?
BitTorrent is a file sharing network. It needs as many nodes as possible, to make the network better. If Taco publishes bittorrent addresses of stuff that slashdotters really want, they might start running bittorrent to get it, which means that they open up their drive space and bandwidth for the common bittorrent good.
If I ran a website with over 700,000 daily technically-minded readers, I'd happily take cash from the bittorrent guys twho want to beef up their network with my drone army.
This is just cable company spin of the highest order. They all club together and go "ooh, central govt. might force us to... do exactly what we did to our customers anyway!"
Let's face it, WITHOUT regulation, these bozos can pull any shit they want and get away with it. Their worst NIGHTMARE is an FCC regulation MANDATING that users can connect any device they want to their cable/dsl connection and can run VPNs if they want to, for no extra charge.
I'll also stop assuming that if two african-american parents have a child that he will also be african-american.
Stop pussy-footing! Cut this "African-American" crap! You want to say "if two BLACK parents have a child, it will be BLACK"! You're talking about genetic SKIN COLOR which has NOTHING to do your nationality. Black people can be African-American, they can be Zambian, they can be British, they can be Chinese, they can be Russian, they can be from any part of the world. You're using the nationality "African-American" to refer to skin color! You might as well just say "nigger", you racist bastard! Did you stop to think that a white guy from South African who emigrates to America is also an African-American, but he's WHITE? If an African-American couple move to Norway and have a kid, that kid will be Norwegian, not African-American. Genetically, the kid is likely to be a BLACK Norwegian, but certainly not "African-American"!
There's a very well known leaked copy of a high-level report about the Hotmail conversion.
They had this to say on w2k outperforming freebsd by "a statistically significant margin":
It's true that Windows requires a more powerful computer than Linux or FreeBSD. In practice, this is a less important constraint. When you are building a large operation, you will use smaller numbers of relatively powerful systems. The PC systems in use at Hotmail are perfectly capable of running Windows, and the machine's basic power is the same whether it is run with UNIX or Windows. For most of the time, it is only executing application code and most of the extra elaboration is not apparent.
I do all my shopping for computer software at Office Depot! How am I going to get the latest Starworld Monkey Tetris 5.0 if Office Depot don't sell it?
Funny. I would've thought Red hat would have the magic sysrq key turned on by default.
I just had a look on google and apparently redhat disables it by default, which is stupid, but I suppose it also stops you from typing things like alt-sysrq-b (does a reboot) or alt-sysrq-o (turns the computer off) by mistake.
To turn it on, edit/etc/sysctl.conf and change the line
kernel.sysrq = 0
to
kernel.sysrq = 1
you can also do echo 1 >/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq at any time.
On a Linux console, press alt-sysrq-k to force the linux kernel to kill the current process running on that console and spawn the authentic login program.
This isn't a Secure Access Key because linux can still give complete control of the keyboard to an application with root privileges (like X, for example) and it doesn't check in those instances, but if some hacker guy has access to root privileges for his login trojans, why does he need to get your password?
You'll be paying back the cost of hosting those video files when you go out and buy the DVD or watch Matrix 2 and 3 in the cinema.
Do you know how much it costs for a good advert spot on TV, radio or before a movie? Compared to that, bandwidth costs are quite cheap!
Anyway, it's not a play on $$$$$exyGal, it's a play on her imitator $$$exy Gwen Stefani. I just thought the world would be a better place if people knew who Gwen Araujo was. If they did, perhaps they'd be a bit more tolerant of girls like me.
This is geeky, but it says on the manual page "-O3 Optimize yet more. -O3 turns on all optimizations specified by -O2 and also turns on the -finline-functions and -frename-registers options."
A better question, what if you butter the edge as well?
It spins indefinately?
Seriously, butter some bread and attach it to a cat, then throw it up in the air. Cats always land on their feet, but bread always lands butter side down, so the cat/bread combination will spin round and round indefinately. Have you ever been inside a power plant?
Seriously, this is why every line of code is *meant* to go through proper examination by your peers.
With the number of eggs and backdoors in some commercial software (*cough Excel 97 *cough*), you have to wonder...
You must live somewhere funny. Every single bowling alley where I live has an arcade to go with it.
Not all of them have DDR, but, well, that's their loss...:)

Metal Gear Solid from the playstation has a "vibration test" option in the menus that you can hold down continuously... more fun than the game itself!

it's nice to see Dani getting some recognition nowadays.
Because browsing the web is not the be-all and end-all of computers.
You're forgetting Sinister Theme Park! How could you?
First, why are you writing such utter bullshit? Secondly, have you nothing better to do on a saturday evening? no date? figures.

Stop kidding yourself. Even I had a bigger cock than you do.

There's a web-server in the bug -- makes a nice change from Microsoft :)
D'oh! You killed it!
