I second the sentiment. Microsoft continues to hire more and more people in the United States, and its Redmond campus has done nothing but grow in the last decade.
I haven't tried this feature so I'm just guessing, but does the behavior rule out the possibility that the URL could just be encoding all the articles that are currently showing up? Like, can you click a "show more articles" button under your foot fetish filter? If so, I guess you're right.
"oh wait... shouldn't people use more than one password?"
Absolutely! That's why they have
Three passwords for the Elven kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for the mortal Men, doomed to die,
and one password for the Dark Lord on his dark throne.
Is there not ONE story on this site that we can have a modicum of decency in the comments? I was hoping this story might elicit a somber, respectful, pensive set of comments.
I guess not. Let's see what they're saying about this anniversary on the SomethingAwful forums...
Right, because programmers get confused every time they get a seg fault... That *is* mostly the audience that sees that message. I'm with you in general, that's just an unfortunate example.:)
No, it's not off topic, it's Funny. Some people don't know their Roman history. See: Caligula and his horse, Incitatus, who he tried to appoint Senator.
Keep in mind folks, that it's a fine line we dance between Funny and Offtopic, because clearly, posted stories are serious things, and to have humor demands that there be something in the statement that is outside the expected line of discussion.
It's easy, with just a standard quad-NAND integrated circuit, to make your alarm clock wall mounted.
1) Hold clock up by power cord, against wall
2) Position IC over power cord
3) Apply hammer to IC, driving pins 1-16 into wall.
4) Connect ground, Vcc, and inputs as desired.
As a Christian myself, I think there is much truth to your jestful quotes from his "notes" and that you really can see God's work through evolution.
Just between you and me, as a Jew, so do I. It's tough being religious in these scientific times, but I found that if you keep your personal spirituality above the dogma, you can find a place for God in this precisely measured universe of ours. In the end, you have to believe in what you feel.
"Truly we can see God's works through this evolution. I feel my work can help all men have a better understanding of the ways of the Lord in Heaven and His divine plan."... " I hope that these notes don't get separated or there might be quite a bit of a silly misunderstanding, what with the monkeys and all."
::sits back and watches those without the time to actually read the post mod it Troll, Flamebait, and complain that there's no "-1 Religious"::
The link also makes taunting mentions of movie plans.
Oh, those TV execs -- they're wily ones alright, but I see their plan. Take a show they don't trust enough to give another season, take it off the air so people start to miss it, then pump millions of dollars into a big motion picture production! Ya, that's really gonna happen!
No, because they've been getting a lot of flack for it. With that one part being ruled unconstitutional (according to one judge) and the various other challanges from disparate municipalities, this is a prime (if rare) example of government actually trying to correct their fascism, even if it is in their own fanciful bereaucratic fashion -- I, for one, welcome it, commend them, and don't see the need to poopoo it.
Actually, I remember reading an article 4 years ago or so about a company in New Zealand that had actually done something like that. Advertised for a cheap movie they would import, shirked on the deal, and sent checks back reading "Anal Sex and [Something] Fetish Company", and that didn't stand up in court, because it was pretty blatant.
Man, now if only I could remember what I read 4 DAYS ago in my Economics textbook:-(

Review: KDE 3.2
·
· Score: -1, Redundant
Here's the article, sans pics, for those having trouble getting to it.
Today I installed KDE 3.2, third major release of award winning KDE3
desktop platform, on my Fedora box. I have been using KDE 3.2 RC for
the past few days and the final version from today. My first impression
is "wow".
KDE 3.2 provides an integrated desktop along with various
applications
to carry out common desktop tasks such as web browsing, email, instant
messaging, multimedia, graphics, etc. Some of the impressive features
which you will notice include
Increase in speed evident from faster application startup time
Improvements in usability and performance
Better appearance through interface refinement
Browser performance boost evident through better webpage
rendering
Upgrading to KDE 3.2 is a breeze. If you are a newbie and want to
learn how to do it, you can refer to my HOWTO. I
started my installation and within few minutes I am logged into my new
KDE 3.2 desktop.
The desktop is very polished and you can configure it in any way you
want by right clicking on the desktop. You can setup your desktop
background as a slide show so that the background picture changes at
predetermined intervals. The style and window decorations are very
refined increasing the overall appearance. I love plastik for style and
window decoration. A better icon set is also available. Now that you
can find a wide array of themes and icon sets in www.kde-look.org,
you can customize your KDE desktop in any way you want. In fact, you
can even select the KDE splash screen (which appears when you login)
from the available choices.
The K Menu is better organized now. It is grouped into "Most
Used Application", "All Applications" and "Actions". Even the
applications are grouped in a much better way compared to earlier
version.
The new KHotkey feature is really hot. You can create keyboard
shortcuts and mouse gestures for various tasks. This comes very handy.
People used to such features in Microsoft Windows environment will love
this feature. It is really cool to press the "Windows" key in your
keyboard and see KMenu pop up in your screen.
The control center is well spruced up and better structured in KDE
3.2. Some of the tabs like background, window decoration, style etc.
are redesigned.
Some of the welcome addtions to control center are
Splash Screen - where you can select a KDE splash screen of your
choice
Wireless Network - where you can configure your wireless
network. You can save upto four different configurations.
Vim Component Configuration - where you can configure Vim to use
inside KDE
KHotkeys - where you can specify keyboard shortkeys and mouse
gestures to lauch applications in KDE
KDE Wallet - where you can configure KDE Wallet to store your
internet and local passwords
Sony Vaio Laptop - where you can configure the hardware for this
laptop
KDE 3.2 has more countries under Country/Region. Also these
countries are better organized. This is a very positive step in the
internationalization efforts of KDE.
Another welcome feature in the control panel is the "Font
installer". With this, installation of new fonts is a breeze. This is
very useful for people who want to install their regional fonts and
other extra fonts (many fonts are available in kde-look.org). The best
aspect of the font installer is the instant preview available with it.
I feel this is one of the greatest additions to KDE.
Many new applications are added and some of the existing
applications have been upgraded. It is quite impossible to discuss all
the applications available in KDE 3.2. I will just discuss some of the
applications based on my preferences.

Doesn't matter. It wasn't lawless action that he was inciting, so it already doesn't meet the standard set by the court case. My 2 cents.
I second the sentiment. Microsoft continues to hire more and more people in the United States, and its Redmond campus has done nothing but grow in the last decade.
That one's taken. GSpot is already the name of a codec identification utility.
Flesh this out, publish it, and I smell a Nobel prize in economics. Seriously, though, very well said.

Easy, just take an illustration of Young's experiment, and write a 't' where it says 'x' on the axis. :)
I'd say there's significant prior art here.
Absolutely! That's why they have

Oh, right, quad D-flip-flop. My bad.
1) Hold clock up by power cord, against wall
2) Position IC over power cord
3) Apply hammer to IC, driving pins 1-16 into wall.
4) Connect ground, Vcc, and inputs as desired.
If you consider 2600 a news outlet, then you'll be glad to know that Off the Hook spent quite some time last week talking about the incident.
Actually, I did once. It didn't work. :(

Ya, sorry folks, it ain't happenin'.
