heh, I found the opposite to be true. If my life has less going on, I really don't feel the urge to write: Got up, had coffee, looked for a job every day

Hmmm... I think that the Target gift cards use barcodes instead of mag stripes. I'd check the one I gave my wife for Christmas but she redeemed and tossed it as soon as the store re-opened:)

sounds about right, making them the microshaft of the retail world in security circles as well as business practices.

umm, not totally true. They are mentioned but only because of the $1/mo. charge on unused cards after a year
There is one that I know of in Ireland writing POS stuff (for supermarkets) under SCO - Merit Solutions so it can be done. They're working on some Linux stuff as well.

Or... not as big as a statue, but as big as a kettle, like.
No, actually, you don't. You just need to set the area code to 000 to be able to use the ethernet connection.
Umm, yeah. That's due to the *definitions* of Amateur and Professional:
Amateur (m-w.com):
2 : one who engages in a pursuit, study, science, or sport as a pastime rather than as a profession
The most relevant (for clarification of my point) entry for Professional (also m-w.com):
2 a : participating for gain or livelihood in an activity or field of endeavor often engaged in by amateurs
If you get money for it, you're a professional, if not, then you're an amateur.
That provider was Verizon Wireless - they don't do GSM anyway.
From the article, it looks like he'll be Indian - not Indian-American.
Make that Troj/Stawin-A..
There was a typo in the URL
OK, I know this is the wrong place for this, but am I the only one that thinks a "New Folder" button on an "Open File" dialog is completely wrong?

Nope.. Mary's not God. She's the Mother of God - whole nother element.

I know a couple whose last name is Jesus. They went out to dinner after an event with a group of people. The reservation was for 'Jesus, party of 13'

the point of the domain name is a pun which is negated by people putting www. before it.
sheesh!

we all say pound for "#".
this is crap... for those of us that actually use pounds for currency, # = hash and £ = pound.
I never thought I'd see this in an article on slashdot.
I thought the whole point of having the slashdot.org domain was that it read as http:///..org not http://www./..org?
am I missing the point here?
Indeed it was enjoyable, well done NetSoc. I'm looking forward to RMS's talk... and of course Linus whenever... ;)
