I'm going to get modded OT for this, but don't want to post AC. Kudos to you for posting a response to this FUD, and promptly at that. Too often people from the dev teams sit back as the idiots on here flame their products. Winamp is an excellent product, and I've been using it since 1.xx. I even tried 3 (shudder;). Keep up the good work, guys.
Colin,
I'm generally a fan of every post of yours I've read, but I find this to be a poor analogy. This would only be correctly analogous if once someone contracted AIDS (HIV, but I digress), they died immediately. This is the type of situation Stewart is referring to. Once affected, a machine can't propagate. (As per his quote, I don't know the details of this worm) When a person is HIV positive, they can still propagate HIV->AIDS.
I think this is a great opportunity for Yahoo to start properly marketing and advertising their site, and come up with some model that makes it less prone to fraud than eBay/PayPal. Perhaps Yahoo could partner with an online "bank" the way eBay did with PayPal, and eliminate our PayPal *AND* eBay problems in one shot. Lets get some response to this, and maybe Yahoo will do something.
I live in Orange County. In City of Orange, the 22 at the 55 is *silent*, it's about a half mile of a different type of pavement. When you're driving with the windows down, it goes from a roar to next to complete silence. The parent comment is correct.
No, Hitler was not a Christian. Quick google for Hitler Christian turned up a plethora of links telling otherwise. Mods, please verify facts before modding things like this up. I forfeit my ability to mod this story so that I could post a proper rebuttal to this. Corrections should be made.
IPv4 routing and POTS routing don't work the same. You'd be eating the original ISPs bandwidth if you sold one of their IPs to someone, and expected the original ISP to route it to the new destination. Not gonna happen.
That's disturbing the peace. Also breaks several noise violations, those are local, though. Seems like telemarketing disturbs the peace within my household, and violates my own noise ordinances. Good call.
Slashdot Mirror
sco's on shrooms! sco's on shrooms!
If you can get a real street address of where I'm *USING* the IP at (my apartment), given an IP, I'll award $10,000. USD. Go.

P.S. More kudos for removing AOD
I second that. Meta-humor > *. And * definitely includes today's slashdot.
I sell magazines. But I used to work at Initrode.
the DSL doesn't shit on my car.
are these universal remotes? nuclear weapons? wtf?
I thought Berne Convention covered the "automatic" copyright of your songs/poems?

PHP is good enough for Yahoo, and they have more traffic than CNN does.
your vision is on its way out too, i suspect.

Active Noise Cancellation stuff is a really cool technology. I wonder if this could be applied to cars and other "larger louder" things in the future.
Like BogoMIPS?
Can we get a supporting URL that doesn't match *.*.cn? Thanks.
URL to this Real World Loads site you speak of please?
saying your URL aloud to myself caused me to have a seizure. "double u double double u dot dot design dot double u ess"
I *WOULD* buy a Mac, but then I wouldn't know where to download my warez.
;)
I expected Windows' marketshare to be much more prominent.
I digress. The close door button always works for me to prevent the fat woman in accounting from getting on the elevator with me.
haha. I'm not certified to do someone else's taxes. There's a liability issue that CPAs (Certifed Public Accountants) take on. Sorry. =)
