On a different note, another scientist friend of mine just told me his six-year-old daughter burst into tears when she found out Pluto isn't to be considered a planet anymore.:-(
Oh crap, we've gone and forgotten to think of the children again.
Could you set the password to your encrypted drive to ISTEALMUSIC and plead the 5th if they ask you to reveal your password so they could check your drive?
Sorry for using the word "steal", I hate that as much as anyone else, but the password IVIOLATECOPYRIGHTLAWBYDOWNLOADINGMUSIC didn't fit the post as well.
My submission to http://mydreamapp.com/:
A worm for OS X call SmugWiper. It does nothing more than fly a plane across the screen every few minutes with a Samuel L. Jackson clip playing from the movie where he calmly states that he's not happy about all of these unpleasant snakes.
So who made up the science axioms? I suggest we just find that out and ask LOTS of questions.
I liked this little bit...

"There's a fairly robust grey market run by the locals wherein a person can pick up movies which are still in theaters for a paltry $3.00," he says. "They aren't the best quality, usually, but things like series which have already been released (Sopranos, Buffy, FireFly) are also available at the $3.00/disk pricepoint and are ripped from the actual DVD sets. The quality of those items is right up there with the legitimate stuff, and all the stupid warnings and previews are usually done away with."
2. My wife sees the rainbows on DLPs. It's less obvious with higher-priced models (where the color wheel spins faster), but it renders them unwatchable for fast content (like sports or action movies) for her.
Just a note on this... I have a DLP projector (freaking love it). I saw rainbows when I first got it, but oddly enough, I must have gotten used to them fairly quickly because I can't remember the last time I saw a rainbow.
You can keep it currently when you cancel your account (kind of). I just cancelled my parent's account a couple months ago, and it just converts your user name to a free AIM web mail account.
If your user name was username@aol.com, this is what happens...
1) Any mail people send to username@aol.com after you cancel automatically goes to username@aim.com.
2) Any mail you send from aol.com web mail goes out as if from username@aim.com
But the important part being 1), you don't need to tell everyone you have a new e-mail address.
So far I'm not allowed to drive a Hummer because it costs me too much to drive.
And now I really shouldn't be driving my truck because I only use it to haul stuff every other week.
Where can I get a list of slashdot approved cars I can own for my needs?
Found that while I was in college and never looked back (they started us on vi). And boy was I happy to see that in my terminal in OS X!
I do realize that it is too simple a program for anyone here.
Yep, OS X supports VNC in the sharing control panel without any special software. In the newest system there is a checkbox in the remote desktop sharing that says "Allow connections via VNC" with a password box. It works great with multiple VNC clients. I couldn't believe my eyes when I connected to control my Mac from a PC and it worked!
All I had to do was check a box in OS X that said allow VNC connections and set a password. No special VNC server software or anything, it was very cool to have that as part of the default OS and soooo simple to turn on.
Slashdot Mirror
I'm going to say that about 1 in 1 people lie or don't keep their word.
You only got about 50% blockage?
I just got a blank page when I went there.
My blocker figured out the article was an ad.
Anyone can modify your website.
Seriously, is this some kind of joke now on slashdot where we purposely spell it wrong to be funny? Did I miss the memo on the new long running joke?
So was Indiana Jones the original "Snake(s) on a Plane"? (Raiders of the Lost Ark scene after Indy gets the idol)
FREAKING SCRATCHED DISCS. Yes, that was a yell. Nothing is more infuriating to my wife and I.

New official Slashdot It! tag...
Slashdot It!
Except the "it" in this case refers to your server, not the article.
Just for the record, they really did earn their "Damned If You Do, Damned If You Don't" moderation.

Dear RIAA,
Please stop moderating articles about your own organisation.
Thanks.

Yup, just like the battlegrounds *inside* of WOW.
