How can we forget? We're still living under his legacy.
What this guy should have done was to mail a letter to wikileaks. The post office still has some very strong privacy protections built in. Certainly better than any of your ISPs.
I'm not about to get one. How do you expect me to pay this "dime"? Screw that. Too much good stuff out there without such nonsense. They should be paying me to distribute their content. Electricity ain't free, ya know.
will be when you find out your line is not being tapped. At this point, it's best to assume the worst and work as though everything you do is being broadcast on the TV.
Never said it was. In fact, I consider the mere existence of the border to be a grave injustice to all. Freedom of movement is as paramount as all others.
The Office XP disc which came with my laptop a few years ago, would be incredibly loud compared to other discs, and the entire laptop would shake. (I don't understand why and I can't figure out how a particular disc would behave like that)
Sometimes their lopsided labels throws them out of balance, and they do spin very fast, as I'm sure you are aware. Many HP disks are just as bad. I usually copy the CD to the hard drive and install from there when I can. The less time my machine spends spinning the disk up and down, the better. I'm sure it's easier on the drive also.
Tell me. Who gets screwed by fairness? Besides greedy authoritarians? Maybe life's not fair, but rational human beings can be. The rest just need a little push.
People have no say in what genes they're born with...
They also have no say on where they are born, yet it's perfectly ok (well not to me) to discriminate based on that. I don't get it. Place of birth is every bit as meaningful as race, gender, and genetics. So when are we going to seriously consider really tearing down those walls?
I can't block it off the front page. It's a spam bucket taking up valuable space. It's not on the list of things I CAN block. Make it an option, and I'll keep quiet. One of the things that made the site better than most was the lack of garbage like this. Now it's just becoming some cutesy teenybopper site. Just you watch the kind of people this will attract as the tech articles drift off into the background. It's already happening. And the look of the idle page is positively ghastly. The pink ponies look better than this. Tell you what, I won't go to or comment on any more idle pages that pop up and just fire off a nasty letter to the editor for what it's worth. For those of you that are with me on this, you can help by not renewing your subscriptions. This is a true sign of deterioration and dumbing down of Slashdot. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted. Bummer to see it end this way. Now, excuse me. I have to go catch up on my Y&R tapes.

Not that sort of two-way TV.

In before Big Brother references!
But not before the slippery slope references.
A slightly lees popular proverb says "Adobe, c'est de la merde". This might translate a bit easier? I wouldn't know. No hablo frances.
Does displaying accented characters have to be so difficult?
I'm adopted?!
democrat/republican... black/white... I still can't tell the difference.
I wouldnt be surprised if it didnt trickle down to even the major games in Footbal, Soccer, Baseball etc...
It will trickle down much further than that. Soon you will need one of these cards to unlock the door to your house... from the inside.

Pssst... Over here
Nobody gets excited about getting lobbying calls from a realtor.
Nothing a little makeup can't fix.
Anyone remember Nixon...

It's basically all over...

Will keep tigers away?
Actually I was hoping they would have seen some condensation on it.

Doesn't apply at border crossings. In fact pretty much all your rights go out the window there.

Oh jeeze! Modded by an idle worshiper. Go back to facebook, or wherever the hell you came from. We don't want you in our sandbox.
Slashdot is being AOLed. It's worse than death
...given enough time and effort it's possible to circumvent it...
There oughta be a law!

Keep the damn idle OFF the front page! At the VERY least, let me block it!
...just click the 'Deploy spade' button...
Ok, here goes...
Oh yeah... We all heard that before.
