i'd get one if i was a chick trying to punish my boyfriend. i'd somehow be really good at the game because girls are always magically good at stuff in movies - then pretend to be bad once in a while until he gets the shocker...
Do you honestly think that the black hats are going to come out and say, "Umm... I found this really big gaping hole in Windows that allows me access to credit card DBs on a few major e-commerce sites. Just thought I'd tell you."? No! They're going to keep it to themselves until the damage has gone far beyond anything that open source would be vulnerable to.
Of course he wouldn't tell you! He'd wait until most computers are patched. All they'll tell you about the patch is "it's a security update". If he told the world everyone would know about it and they'd use that hole.
what do you mean our interest? we elected these people for reasons. they can do whatever they want. If they want open source, vote for them. If they don't, don't vote for them. I on the other hand don't care about who supports open source because that's nothing we can fully stop and/or make 100% the case.
oh yes, i remember my older brother mentioning remote control earlier this week... i guess it was a little before my generation. i just remember MTV being music videos, and beavis and butthead at one point... but i was like 12 so i don't remember everything
I think just as common courtesy, any time Slashdot links to an article with a link to any file over 1 MB, slashdot should mirror that file just to be nice.
I keep having this nightmare where i've just released my next calculator game with a 2 MB zip file and my site gets slashdotted and my bandwidth overage ends up costing me millions of dollars...
starts out with andy serkis:
"hi everybody, my name's andy serkis, and i'm delighted to recieve this award on behalf of everybody who brought gollum to life. i can't actually blah blah blah blah blah thank you to mtv fans lotr fants and blah blah blah marriage"
then gollum comes in and steals the popcorn
"you're a liar and a thief! it's mine, i won it, it was me! we won because of me.... and me, mtv is my friend, my friend! you don't have any friends, nobody likes you... blah blah dobby likes me! dobby? dobby! dobby's a beepin' beep!"
serkis "that's enough gollum"
gollum "piss off serkis, you stupid fat worthless beepin terd"
serkis "i'm not fat"
gollum "we're not gonna thank anyone no! no! not you, not MTV, and not those pussy somethings at WETA digital, and not peter jackson, who do you think you are you beepin hack?! shame on you! shame on you! go beep yourself.. not listening! not listening! frankly, nothing can compensate for the somethings and miserable experience we've had in making this beepin' movie"
and ther'es more but i'm feeling a little weird right now... i'll come back later
00 is not a value. that's like saying "there are zero types of people, people" when that really means there is 1 type of people. that's 4 options for "3 types of people"
i do believe i've read somewhere that we have the ability to build a base 10 computer... but i don't know how that would be done. would everything transferred as light and stored as something weird?
yes, you're right. but i KNOW that there are hardcore people who think they get the "10 types of people" joke (which i hope everyone has seen before they read my 11 types of people), so they laugh even though they don't know binary. it does fall into the 10nd category.. so you're right. just my way of making fun of wanna be nerds

I call com.la! no way you're gonna take it from me!
because some things are better left unknown to the general public.
i asked him a question. i didn't say what he said linux did was good or not. i said what he said was illogical.
i'd get one if i was a chick trying to punish my boyfriend. i'd somehow be really good at the game because girls are always magically good at stuff in movies - then pretend to be bad once in a while until he gets the shocker...
that'd be great.

no one said anything about anyone being wrong about expressing their views. i'm arguing about their views, not whether or not they express them.
1, yes i am.
2, i code all the time - not MS
3, i read stats very well, thank you
I feel that as a citizen of a democracy, I have the inherent right to see what's being done and how.
how will the government using open source make you see what's being done? it doesn't help you see "how" any more than if you know they use windows.
MicroSoft has been built by the strength of its products.
are you suggesting that Bill Gates actually WANTS money??? geez! i thought he would be un-evil enough to not want to make profit for his company...
oh is it asking who opposes the government using it?
in that case, i do. it's a security risk beyond measure if people could see the source of the computers the government is using.
Somebody'll have to look this one up to confirm, but last i checked microsoft was a private corporation. It's not a part of the government.

the English number system (what we SAY) is based on value. you don't day eleventh when the VALUE is only 3. you say third.
