Sex is a natural thing that happens between two people who like each other a lot.
We're talking about porn here. More like sex is a thing that happens between a pissa deliverygirl and a customer, when he opens the door. Ofcause there in lies a problem, because if oral services aren't sexual relations, then sex is what happens he's opened the door, she's striped and serviced his penis, and they then find the couch. Sex may not be corrupting to children but to say that porno isn't is an Intirely different statement.
Call me stupid, but the whole RSS'vatisement I first saw applied 3months ago, 2months after I first read about the ideer somewhere. Where is all this prior art, and does it predate Google's aplication? The whole karma deal is shit, yes, but Google doesn't apear to be patentwhoring, and I doubt(based on karma) that they tryed to get this patent throug, knowing that there was prior art.
On another note. RSS'vatisement is annoying, so if people have to stop doing it, I woundn't mind all that much.
Not really, the average nerd spends more time studying breasts then the averege doctor, the net is filled with interesting casestudies. Besides that what are carburetors?
I see your point. The whole subjective good/bad scale ofcause rates intent rather then content, and if anyone where to read this not knowing that it was a parody and say "that's bad" they would be intirely wrong.
You should read How I'm Is a Hello THERE!? It's terrible, but intentionally, so it's good. Ofcause it's not intentionally good, so it must be bad, or maybe I am mistaken.
Denmark would win!
Even though we are smaller, we have strategic advantages: We have icebreakers, Canada does not and we have a submarine(4man sub called flipper), Canada does not!
We may be a small country, but in viking days we owned the intire north and most of everything else.
it's just the way that GUI stuff appears to the user
Think of it this way. I want to run an automated photoshop process on 20.000 images. Since Photoshop was developed to the "Interface with noone"-ideology. I still have to open op the GUI(one that is useless to the process at hand) and it even has to show me each picture open up, show the changes and then be saved.
Had they been of the "interface it" mind, they could have made it possible for me to run it in a commandline, sending back information of where the changed pictures are saved and stored(so further changes can be made when photoshop is done with it).
Currently there is simply a great gap between "GUI programs" and "console programs" when it comes to playing nice with others. This is the gap Apple is trying(trying) to close with automater, asking developers to make make it posible to use their apps through it. And just as the commandline automater isn't for everyone but those who use it find it extremly helpfull.
"The typical do-gooder isn't doing somethign because it makes him feel good- he's doing it because he thinks he's doing the right thing. He beleives it 100%."
And you would argue that people don't find plesure in doing what they think is right?
Noone is saying that do-gooders are born with a
It's a beer made by IT people... They proberbly spend more time making the webpage then acutally reading about brewing(Wich is more of a biology thing). I recall back in highschool we had a beerbrewing project in biology class. We spend most of the time studying the history and importants of yeasts. Noting that they made this project in cooporation with a beer brewing company, they most likely didn't have anything to do with the process, except maybe the caffeine part.
It looks more like a concept then v1.0 at this time.
Ofcause a search feature, very important as the builtin search isn't site specific enough. I need a searchbar that specifikly says SEARCH SLASHDOT in bold letters.
Lots of practical features. For example autogenerated 'In soviet Russia'-jokes.
I'm still waiting for the killer app that will make people stop misusing the word killer app. I imagine it will be a 60foot high monster with frikin laser beams on its head.
It isn't.... It's the headline of a small description of AFA. TFA is the news. As so many slashdotters, you fall into the trap of thinking the title is in itself the news.
Atom size and orbitals become continues is the "new" chart. That's the whole point. Electronegativitiy is poorly reprecented on the table of elements, so why is it a loss to have it not be reprecented at all?(Or better put: To have it badly reprecented in a different style).
The point being made is that the important information is better desplayed in a circular way.
As information preservation goes, it's more important to reprecent the information in a style the fits the nature of the information then trying to "force" it into a box chart.
I personally downloaded the 4most popular extentions and a cuple of personal favorates after installing 1.0.5 and they all worked. The only one that didn't was a small plugin that makes firefox download pdf's instead of showing them.
Maybe they did just as you say but like me didn't notice any big problems.
I've played my share of quake, so I'm not the average user, but I can drag a file to the lowest folder in the java demo with the same amount of mouse movement it takes to drag it to a hot corner. And about the same speed. There's 6folders in the demo, so the speed is about the same. Using Expose I would also have to identify the folder when it opens since I don't know where it is(in expose) only how it looks.
This offeres a very intuiative way of moving around in layers assuming you know where the folder you are looking for is in the stack.
imho this would proberply compliment Expose quite well.
You mean like the 0px fonted part of the first amendment that makes me king of USA for all eternity?
Credits in source is crediting, but a 1px font wouldn't hold up in court. Plus if you are required not to change the picture a description of creater/website/mail and such could have been put in the file by the creater, even on the picture and you would not be allowed to remove it.
Programming isn't art, it's a craft but so is painting or makin statues. Art can be programming, however enough people rarely get a chanse to see or understand the beuty in programming, so any piece of programming being accepted as art is very far off.
Maybe in the year 4010 peole will be remembering "useless" pieces of code as art.
Touche. Mister A. Cow. Disagrees and has powerfull arguments, such as "No, it isn't" to back himself up. If only he would use his powerfull arguments to make Linux the most used platform: "Linux has 90% userbase." and VOILA it was so.....
With all this fear of people stealing your bodily parts, how long til someone develop biometrics that won't identify a bodypart once it's been removed from your body?
I would think you could make it detect whether there is a blodflow in the vains while trying to identify you.
I'm planning on having my intire body, including head and brain since computeres are proberbly gonna get better then us with time, replaced by robotics. It looks like the only way to keep my job once the robots enter the workmarket.

What about down between, over under, next to above and the like? When will these options become available?
Don't forget Denmark vs. Canada over Hans ø.

Its thinking like that, that made people buy windows me. (And some would argue XP)

So? Neither does the ganstar rappers, they just drive the sarcasme further. British style j00.

Geeks constructed lego boxed set of ISD following manuel carefully 2years ago.
Is this the death of slashdot? Ohh wait...
Reletive to what?
If we are speaking in terms of the Earths timeline then it is 100years.
It doesn't make sence to assume that anything else.
