Since the price of death is so high in EVE, you never really get to see too much PVP.
have you seen the killboards? in the time I wrote this post, billions of ISK got destroyed in the game because of PVP. that might sound like much for a 2 day old noob (or a player that never played EVE, but knows everything about how "impossible" it is to get startup capital) but in the grand scheme of things, it's nothing.
Yes, because wanting to play a game without some sociopath constantly ruining and interrupting it is being a "carebear." Give me a fucking break.
in case you didn't know, EVE is a multiplayer game, not your personal sandbox. if you are pissed about other people "intrerrupting" your experience maybe you should go play Solitaire.
and the fact that they chose a different playing style than yours doesn't make them sociopaths.
I find it pretty weird that people bitch about such an exciting game, where danger lurks around every corner of a HUGE world. shit, everything is thrilling, even the market PVP.
And this is why Eve will forever remain a niche MMO.
this is why I also like EVE. the developers dont compromise and try to cater to the needs of constant whiners. they offer you a lot of possibilities but the learning curve (and universe) is ruthless. this way the community is pretty mature and dedicated.
Fine and dandy with me if it helps keeps the assholes off WoW and Guild Wars.
have fun playing with your dolls. we will have fun playing with our fucking SPACESHIPS. in space!
Same way average "Jow Sixpack" (sic) wouldn't be able to figure out how to download a Theora file and play it.
which, I would assume, is fucking irrelevant because of the <video> tag and Mozilla being able to automagically play it. that TFA and the blurb is all about.
Then you exclude all pages which include the word wikipedia (e.g. other sites which mention it and the likes). I want to exclude all the pages from wikipedia.
Huh? What? It's not his network. He's not some kind of hero. Yeah, there are other idiots in the world, but seriously, anyone seeing Childs as some kind of champion of security is sadly, sorely mistaken.
what more proof do you need? this action demonstrates he was right. it's not "his" network but I'm pretty sure he was in charge of its security. he tried to keep it secure, for what are now obvious reasons, and he got thrown in jail for it.
Ummmm, yes. If you can identify them BEFORE they make their first attack then that would qualify as "predictive".
if I can identify them BEFORE they make their first attack ON MY SERVER then that would qualify as "predictive". I predicted their attack. drop all the fucking semantic hairsplitting please.
I can't imagine what logical reason there is for removing [...]
here's one: they are being removed from the core because of the modularization TFA speaks about. removed from the core, moved into separate modules. think Apache.
Real coders write code that you can take a ruler from any given close brace and draw a vertical line right up to the matching open brace, every time. Everybody else gets fired.
I'd venture a guess that you're a Visual Studio user. also, real coders hate redundant shit. redundant shit, oh like I don't know, using braces on top of indentation to find their way around code?

This things require root and I am not knoledgable enough to investigate the source code.
paranoid much?
As I have not suitable testing environment, I will have to wait trusting Ubuntu or Debian for a pre-packaged version.
install it in a VM. why do you trust the noobuntuan devs more than EFF? do you even know what EFF is?
I strongly advice you, non-techy, non-programmer to be patient and wait a bit your Linux distribution or vendor to provide a package.
thanks.
I think you are missing the thread of this conversation.
sorry, I thought I was on fark.

Obviously you're not watching the videos then, because that's where they are.
I don't know what kind of stupid shit you watch that has ads in it, but I waste time on Youtube all day long and I've never seen one. ever.
thanks, captain obvious.
Over all very nice people and his wife to be and my wife are now friends on FaceBook.
wow. fucking score!
I do believe you have just pulled the double-amazing-reverse-whoosh.

-inurl:wikipedia ?
Kind of like counterfeiting currency or collecting teenybopper porn, it sucks to have a cool hobby you can't brag about.
I brag about that all the time.
Since we're on the subject and people @ google are reading this: please add a chekbox that excludes Wikipedia results.
just add -wikipedia at the end of your query.

And make for damned sure that your network is documented.
that's just as hillarious as commented code. haven't you people heard of job security?
Ummmm, yes. If you can identify them BEFORE they make their first attack then that would qualify as "predictive".

You're still hosed if your server's power supply goes titsup. Or if your hard drive crashes. Or if the building burns down.
that's correct. but I've experienced power failures much more often than fried PSUs, drive crashes and fucking fires.
Also, a girl? On Slashdot?
I think we need more cooking threads then. or at least the omgponies pink theme brought back.
However, I don't know anyone else in the Universe who codes like this, and I can't figure out why.
they all got shot.

I agree, 80 chars line lengths are just as obsolete and oldfashioned like line breaks.
one true brace to rule them all, heathen!
4) refuse to give the root password to that new blonde micro-skirted nineteen year-old business analyst who happens to be the owner's granddaughter?
only if she gives me the root password on her box (or at least backdoor access)
(You are probably wrong: she was successfully installing Slackware at home when she was six.)
can I have her number?
Use a double and store the timestamp yourself?
Yeah, great solution. So now I have to implement readers and writers in every application that accesses that DB.
couldn't you write a stored procedure for all that?
