how about no ONE editor can publish a story but requires a second editor to approve the first approval?
Doesn't kuro5hin let users moderate stories? Sorry, don't mean to sound like a troll... but it seemed like a good idea. I've been wondering why it hasn't been implemented on Slashdot.
Next time a cop asks you for your ID - and they ask people to show ID *ALL THE FREAKIN TIME* - tell him/her you don't have to give them your ID because the Supreme Court says you don't.
With the system of checks and balances that in place the idea/concept of such a totalitarian regime coming into power is laughable.
The checks and balances system doesn't work if all the branches of the government are corrupt.
Here we have a private citizen who simply wanted to make a stupid point who is blowing everything completely out of proportion. (It turns out he could fly if he submitted to a search instead of producing ID.)
I had one of these (PC-MM10) for a while. I was actually running the Linux-Laptops site for it, until my DSL went down. *grunt*
Linux ran on it pretty well. No real problems, except you had to use a certain version of the ALSA sound drivers (or your screen would explode into lots of pretty colours and hang your machine), and something else I don't quite remember. I think that ACPI support in Linux was pretty crappy when I had it or something.
Duck Dodgers: I claim this planet in the name of Earth! Marvin the Martian: I claim this planet in the name of Mars. Isn't that lovely? Duck Dodgers: Screw you, I'm gonna get my lawyer. Marvin the Martian: I'm going to get my lawyer. Yes. Duck Dodgers: Well, I'm going to get MORRRRRREEEE lawyers!
Out of curiousity, what blacklists do you use? I'm using ORDB and SpamCop right now, and testing DNSRBL on one of the mailservers. Probably 90-95% of inbound mail gets blocked.
But hey, I'm not going to complain. I average about one piece of spam every five days or so.
# ls.Spam/cur.Spam/new | wc -l 216
SpamAssassin/ClamAV over maybe 2-3-4 days. And that's just stuff it picked up -- false negatives and such still get through.
Aren't cabbies legally required to record pickup and destination sites?
Must've been a nickname. Or an older episode...
May be a while.
I find your ideas intriguing and wish to subscribe to your newsletter...
Happened to me, too.
Seems to happen pretty much at random. *shrug*

Sun: "The computer is the network"
Microsoft: ???
SCO: "Profit!"

Then I got drunk and stepped on it. Oh, well.
You can't outsource sysadmins.
We have to wait until their contracts with big businesses run out. :-)
I need something like this for when I get drunk. I'd considered an xscreensaver patch, personally, but there's still the console problem.
Now all I need is one of these.
Old image, blah blah blah. What the hell are those lights out in the middle of the ocean? Oil rigs?
Hey, there's Iraq...
I love this thread! :-)
