a step-by-step recipe on how to screw up the internet even worse. I thought common sense dictated that you don't release documentation of a vulnerability until there is a fix available for it.
[sarcasm] Aw, shit! We're screwed! Thanks for saving us, El! [/sarcasm] Ever heard of BugTraq?
Aren't we overdue for a TCP replacement anyway?
We're getting IPv6 so you can have your washer hooked to the internet! What more could you want??
and one that allows windows that scale to gigabyte sizes
Well, tell you what. You write out the schema for a new protocol (we'll call it XDP, because x's are cool) and then post it on sourceforge! Then the internet will work right! El, you saved the day two times in the same post!
Wow! MOD PARENT UP! We need more people like El around here!
You can bet your sweet ass that the NSA has something 3 times more powerful in their basements..
The NSA is more secure then the pentagon. You get a badge that tracks you around the building, and have to answer to security cameras, if you don't work there...and who works there..?
-- 38% female insinuates 62% male. So whats different about males from females? Right. So imagine a kid thats only 62% male..i know someone like that..we called him peppin..the short..
And remember that the "experts" are saying that moores law is flattening out. I think manufacturers are going to have to make their machines lighter, more efficient, and quieter: because eventually the ghz roof will take effect..whatever that roof may be.
My other thought is that product types seem to bend towards each other: palms are getting bigger (pocket PCs) and laptops are getting smaller(vaios). Desktops get smaller (mini-itx) laptops get bigger (dell-bricks). Desktops trying to be supercomputers.
And of course, the best products are those that are right inbetween. Think of the CLIE: Camera, PDA and all the other good stuff that made people go *wow*.
Thats just a couple of examples.
Feel free to disagree with me, flame me, mod me up, down, or sideways. Or, if you liked this post, vote for me when I run for president in 2024, or this years calif. governor.
Acyually quite a overkill but maybe she will start gaming?
If she's gaming, she won't care about noise:
Blap! Blap! errRRRRrr..QUAD DAMAGE!
*gultch* TAKE THAT *splutch* *splat* denied..
On a second note, if she *really* likes quite, make sure you give her a keyboard that doesn't clack (dell makes a "quiet-board" or something like that) and maybe put felt pads in her mouse.
I've been looking forward to a 3D desktop for a while
You too? I think it could make for a new breakthrough in efficiency..but this is just the coffee talking.
I think the portal idea is the most innovative idea for the desktop since multiple desktops, (or insert whatever).
Please elaborate.
Yeah, I'd like to see holograms on this next. Of course, we have that projected thing we saw here the other day, but wouldn't it be cooler to have a walk through "supermodel simulator"? (complete with sound, of course: "ooh! your distro turns me on!")
i think i should get some sleep before i say anything stupider..
This has been around for quite a while..searching for sensitive pages like/etc/passwd used to turn up a lot of very intresting results..but thanks to pagerank (you bastards!) google isn't *as much as* a script kitty tool as it could be..
you'd be surprised how much is in the clear.
PS: I say "kitty" instead of "kiddie" because even my cat could script, if I had one..(hope that made sense..)
I know a man (who is, coincedentally, native egyptian) who firmly believes that the ancients harnessed mind powers. Which would kinda be cool. I mean, *the force* is real!
Well,it could be quite possible. What are computers good at? Pure logic. Which means they might "take over" more complex jobs such as programming. We already have autopilots, and CAD.
A bot could probably do quite a bit of manual labor if properly programmed, and given a body. Which raises a question: What can they not do? What can humans do that bots can't?
What happens if something goes wrong? Could a computer find a way around it? Perhaps not. WHich provides the answer to our question:
Creative thinking.
That odd ability our brains have of warping ideas into new ideas. That spark of ingeniuty. I wonder if I could get it to do.. It is this that will keep us above machines.
Slashdot Mirror
I do so also. Some of my passwords include the serial numbers of
-My john deere tractor
-My maytag freezer
-obfuscated stuff from favorite webcomics (aka, StefIsATotalLoser; dilbertIsCoolWithHisTie, etc)
..a password-keeper. Has a master entrance code, and a "self-destruct" sequence.

Since it comes from thinkgeek, you'll be supporting OSDN, and besides, anything with a self destruct sequence is cool. Really, really cool.
Why would anybody do that?
Because it gets a laugh? And Karma? Which reminds me:
Q: Why does a Jew always answer a question with a question?
A: I dunno. Why?
AA: Why not?
(nb: a jew told me the above joke.)

No, we only put good things in the smithsonian.
And the RIAA outlawed shotguns.
you wear panties?
lets play starwars! you're the princess!
Ever heard of the NSA?

And what proportion of those included..
yeah..those..

Yeah, I played OMF:2097 (or whatever that ## was) all the time. I got pretty good with the Jaguar, and decent with Shadow.
Note to those that have never played this: Its old, its DOS, but its one of those games I have a box running 98 around for.
There's 2 or 3 earlier comments saying "its so simple"!
Remember, it's not the fact they can "float" due to surface tension..
ITS HOW THEY FRICKEN MOVE!!!
(oh, and I "learned this" in 3rd grade. So ha.)
Its the statement that coffee starts out with less caffiene, and ends up with more, thats so *crazy* to me!
And remember that the "experts" are saying that moores law is flattening out. I think manufacturers are going to have to make their machines lighter, more efficient, and quieter: because eventually the ghz roof will take effect..whatever that roof may be.

This is a common misperception held because dry coffee has less caffeine than dry tea.
Of course.
Most people would agree that It's the content of the brewed cup that matters.
Yess...
A cup of black tea will average about half of the caffeine ammount of your average cup of coffee
So, Coffee(dry).caffiene tea(brewed).caffiene
Which means the coffee is somehow reacting with the water because:
1)It can't be getting it direct from the water (or the tea would get it too)
2)It can't be getting released from the leaves because dry coffee has less caffeine than dry tea
3)There must be a chemical reaction!
Now I know what those ungodly noises are coming from my coffee machine: its not farting, its reacting!
Right?

what the hell are YOU??
doing here, i mean.

Are the computer drivers or drive drivers? ;-P

Do you have 50 close friends? 15 close friends? 15 *IRC* friends?
But I do like the math. Next time, try quantum physics, though..
I know a man (who is, coincedentally, native egyptian) who firmly believes that the ancients harnessed mind powers. Which would kinda be cool. I mean, *the force* is real!
Just my two cents.
(oh, and I mispeled coincedentally. So flame me)
Yes, but remember that Windows server licenses are owned by a corperation, and you can only use it on one computer.
You know those little "by opening this CD you have agreed to.." things? Think a slight modification, here..
Wouldn't be that hard.

..that its complying? How is this news? I mean, whats the worst Verizon can do to the gov? Would someone enlighten me, here?
