If slashdot is any indicator of mass stupidity, the would-be-spammer are going to be buried under an even more overwhelming amount of comments of doubtful usefulness.
Like "yes" "no" "omg" "lol" "whatcouldpossiblygowrong" "goodluckwiththat" and "ponies"....
Fine by me. lolcats is still infinitely preferable to any "parked" domain that masquerades as a search engine or offers dubious products or services.
Someone crashes a A340F full of explosives into it. Or sets fires in it, or...
Well you get the idea. Good idea but a great target.
This got modded insightful? I guess we should all go live in small huts that are impossible to hit by airliner? Oh wait, there's always small prop planes. Guess we're fucked.
Actually, the big transition for the non-corporate types was from Windows 9x (pick your flavor) to Windows 2000. Windows XP was an upgrade to 2000, really.
Oh yeah, absolutely, and the same for us more techie home users as well. Point still stands though, and Twitter's really getting creepy isn't he?
to the pain of transition between Windows 98 and XP.
What the hell are you smoking? Replace XP with ME and you might have a point, but XP makes 98 look like pisswater. And I'm pretty scornful of MS and its products in general.
There's this oil fire going on, so they call Red Adair up and ask him how much it will cost to put it out. Red, being the world-famous guy that he is, rattles off a number that's much too expensive, so they end up going with one of his cheaper competitors.
So, these guys show up, get briefed, and then proceed directly in their truck right to the heart of the fire. There they stop, and all the guys jump out and start stamping on the fire with their feet! They do this long enough, and what do you know, they put the fire out.
Of course, the oil guys are just completely awestruck, and ask the heard fire chief guy if they're off to celebrate another job well done. The head fire chief guy replies "Hell no. First thing we're going to do is fix the brakes on the truck."
I still don't understand the Privateer love. In general, the game was well-written and thought out. But when it came time for space combat, I was bored to tears.

Mods are getting super-retarded around here.

Seriously, this is a month old. I gave him $10 back in July.
Anybody who comes to /. for the "scoop" is an idiot. What you come here for is the discussion with fellow geeks.
You must be new h- *checks UID of parent* -you really ought to know better by now.
Sarcasm missed. :/

Only 'cause it was crap to begin with
Science and Religion are not mutually exclusive.
Maybe not, but the trend lines sure seem to point to a future where they are.
$4.4 million is almost enough to cater the meetings to discuss the project.
No kidding. Factor in another $4 mil for hookers and blow, and then we can worry about actual money going to curb our civil liberties.
Santa isn't a pikey
Funniest thing I've read all day. Shame about your Flamebait mod.
How the hell is this 'Informative?'
/. moderation ;)
The same way your post is informative - not at all. Welcome to
The solution is obviously to cut down more trees and make more deserts, right?
Sure, as long as you don't skimp on the sandworms.
That reminds me of an old joke:

Tinfoil hat on a little too tight? I bet you're one of those people who thinks the moon landing was faked.
Argh! I meant Freelancer! Freelancer's combat sucked. Guess I have to try out Privateer, though...

what makes you think adding *MORE* government is going to help anything?
Typical strawman. GP said nothing about adding more government, he wants to add more 'school'. Thanks for playing, though.

Soooo, you're an NYT subscriber then?
The U.S. is, at least in several ways, quite a lot more liberal about sex than several Islamic countries.
That's a bit like saying regular people are smarter than retarded people. It might be true, but it's a completely useless measurement.
casualsax3 wins the thread.

Somebody please tell me why we're still fisting Adam Smith's very dry corpse?
I wouldn't surprised if they hadn't bothered in the case of Apple hardware, both due to the hardware itself and the tiny userbase.
Thousand. Duh. Context is everything.
Is Heath Ledger on that list and can his ticking be giving away? Dose the family have to pay the death tax on there cost?
Wow, that sentence has so many different levels of suck, I don't know where to begin!
