Funny, then, that you brits are infamous for your horrible teeth. Hey, 'you yanks' are infamous for being fat (I'd say overweight, but lets not beat round the bush), quick to anger, stupid (I'd say unintelligent, but again...), insensitive, vain and greedy, yet believe your country, with the highest rate of gun crime in the developed world, is somehow thoughtful and wise. Funny old world.
Silly Limeys... You relise you call us limeys because we used to eat limes to prevent getting scurvy, while your teeth fell out and you eventually died of Scurvy from lack of Vitamin C. Ironic that the very thing that saved many sailors lives is a (semi)insult you now use against us!
So that explains my inbox full of random british comments like "My internet's fell of the lolly!" and "I've bloody well lost my connection!" and "Cherrio good chap, the internet's down!" Heh funny how it's ok for people in the US to make fun of people in England (and you mean England, not britain!), but not visa versa. Along the same lines, did you know that rhyming-slang for someone who is predudist against people from America is called Listerine, because in rhyming slang an American is called septic (from septic tank = yank), then anti-septic, and finally Listerine, interesting stuff I thought:)
instead of healthy people shooting up schools, now there's going to be 'ill' kids shooting up schools too? Perhaps it would be a good idea to only send non-violent (or adult-themed!) games?
Interestingly, Harald Welte (creator of IPTables) will be giving a talk at Linux/Bangalore 2003, among 100s of others.

I still don't understand removable media such as DVDs. You might be able to burn a DVD at 8x, but you can write to a hard-disk many, many times faster than that, and with removable hard-drives you can carry them around much as you would do with a DVD, at less cost. Does anyone know of any reasons why this technology is any better?
Here I thought Mobile Phones couldn't get anymore annoying. This is for anyone that's seen Trigger Happy TV. YEAH HI. YEAH. IM... SHIT I DON'T KNOW WHERE I AM.
some kid had set up a website devoted to hating this teacher, school found out about it and he got excluded. This isn't limited to schools of course, anyone can be the victim of these, but seriously, in real life this would cause you trouble, but on the internet things like this are easily avoided.
has been dying for a long time now, their hayday was '96, '97, they needed a partner like this to help them going. This is definetly a good business move on the part of Gateway.
and about time! With this new competition intel has really got to get their act together. For quite a while now AMD has been providing cheaper (but not always faster) processors, however with their new AMD64 line they've really come into themselves. Well done AMD!

the article, but here's the link to the linx (badum tsh) website, with another news site for the article.
If you are going to do something like this, do it because it makes you feel good.
Alternatively, you could do it for the kids...

Interesting stuff like DTrace, FireEngine, military grade security
Why isn't the military using it now then?
But I guess it would be difficult to talk about this on /., since it does not even support basic Latin-1
Just say the ascii number?
"There is absolutley NO Open Source in Baghdad!"
Oh , $60,000 if you want one
Why buy one of those, when you can get one of these these for a mere $20,000 more?

only people who either game (and find the game on Gametab etc) or browse the internet a load ( Slashdot) will be able to see this.

Looks like they were running the server on a Glofish.
Really? And is your "robot" able to not crash into firm immovable objects without you turning the steering wheel and pushing the pedals?
Yes.
a robot able to carry humans was demonstrated in Tokyo
I know of another robot that can carry humans AND at up to speeds of 300mph. It's called a car.
