I use Linux for a much more productive work environment. If I want to play a game I get out my iPad or iPhone. I only game for a quick fix anyway. Who wants to be tied down to their desk for hours on end when they aren't even working anymore? I get console games from the couch still but people really still let games dictate their OS choice?
So then if I play a real guitar while wearing this shirt will I get some awesome dischordant sounds? Also isn't the nice thing about air guitar that it doesn't annoy the crap out of your family this will be worse than a real one.
That's great, I really miss that radio station. I used to listen to it all the time as it was the only station regularly playing music I liked. I hope their plan works.
I can picture it now.
Blair: Man, W I heard this Vista is gonna make it easy for terrorists to hide their data.
Bush: Just do what we did, buy a backdoor from MS.
Blair: We can do that? Hey, the lines kinda staticy.
Bush: Yeah well before I lose signal I'll say one importan thing *fuzz*
Blair: What?
Bush: do*fuzz*n't make a press release or anything
Blair: What make a press release?
Call Ended
Bush: damn cell phones.
I wonder if this surge has to do with the movie Suiced Club. One of the craziest movies I've seen in a while 54 high school girls suddenly commit suicide in an internet pact and then people all over begin to follow suit. I like the part with the glam goth rocker singing about killing yourself. The movie was scary and then that part bagan and I cracked up laughing.
I highly doubt a restaurant timestamp on a receipt would do any good unless the police start synchronizing their watches with all the local restaurants.
Pulled into a vacant lot, the road to recovery
Pulled out my pistol as we brushed against the shrubbery
Jesus said, "Why the hell you pointin' a gat?"
So I pulled a piece of game I could use out the hat
I said, "This trip is over, we ain't finna ride on
This is for my mental and my momma that I cried on
Microsoft motherf**kers let bygones be bygones
but since I'm Macintosh, I'ma double click your icons"

(sorry I know off topic but had to respond to the Sir Mix-A-lot comment with this.
Is it really necessary to say that it is a nation born of criminality and to go as far as to say Australians may not care that they are breaking the law because they all come from criminals anyway. tell me if I'm wrong and Australians don't object to being called criminals but it doesn't seem very politically correct. Oh wait, this is Slashdot.
The problem is that our school system was not set up as a learning environment as much as a way of training children how to work in a factory. You are taught basic skills you may need to live your life but any real learning must be done on your own or after high school. When I was in high school (graduated 2003) I did amazing on standardized tests but terrible in school. I didn't care. I could not make myself respect the education I felt I was improperly recieving. They did testing at my school to see who was a genius and I was declared a genius in history when I failed US history the year before. Why? Well, I read a ton of history in school but none of the assigned history. I read things like Howard Zinn's A Peoples History of the United States and other left leaning texts that did not fit into the teaching I was receiving but I was learning more than anyone else in my class. I barely graduated high school. I passed one class my senior year even though I had spent the whole year reading philosophy books. I just didn't care, couldn't make myself care about a system that seemed so irrelevant to my mental growth.
It makes perfect sense to me. Google just released Google Talk and no one uses it. Now, if we had support for it in AOL Instant Messenger, then I'd imagine you would see a lot of people with gmail accounts starting to use it.
Was this not a problem when the walkman was introduced or is our environment a lot noisier now? I'm just curious as it seems this would affect every generation since the walkman was introduced not just the "ipod generation". Then again, I admit I didn't rtfa.
I think that a video game will not cause ptsd in many people like a real life situation will. I am very close to people with ptsd and have learned a fair amount about it as a result. If the issue causing the ptsd is dealt with while what happened is fresh in memory then it is vey possible to help the person not have issues the rest of their life. I think that is what this game is targetting.
That would make my business trips to space easier. Oh wait, I don't have an office on Mars? Oh, I see. Wait, that means I don't need space travel as available as aviation I suppose.
I'm sick of you capitalist fanboys claiming the private sector is the solution to everything.
By the way, you may want to take a look at who makes the space shuttles for NASA. That's right, the private sector.
I suppose just like being whipped for not picking enough cotton was just helping someone conform to culture. After all, once slavery was over they could find another job that would beat them.
All I know is that I don't even know how many times I tried before I successfully rebuilt the Linux kernel from scratch. The first time I did this with FreeBSD I was successful. The reason is that the documentation for FreeBSD is better. Better man pages, it's easier to find online info at freebsd.org than searching for a particular part of the ldp and just better quality. This conversation is starting to make me wonder why I let gentoo pull me back to linux and why am I using Suse now.
I, for one, appreciate at least one other slashdot reader not just assuming that the US did the right thing. Being able to use Linux does not justify war. Just like lieing about WMDs didn't really justify it.

I was in awwe over how much free-market bullshit you could put in one post. Then you even put an Ayn Rand quote. A free market is not a driving force in innovation. A free market is a driving force in greed and oppression. That is why MS beat Netscape. They managed to force their greed over the NS technology and then oppress others from having NS as the default browser.

Just all the linux users will be affected since they will be stuck going into work since their company websites won't work from home.

It's alight, this is a dupe from Slashdot in another time dimenson 10 years ago. Apperently we are way behind. Come on editors!

I'm sure you could, just open automator and create the automation. Wait, wrong OS, damn MacOS spoiling me.

Initiate classic menshivik/bolshevik debate of reform or revolution.

How about a Hubble beowulf cluster.
Wait, if I am only paying for the contract then does that mean that all software, even MS Windows is "free as in beer" software?

Actually you are wrong. The vast majprity of those people died defending an occupation most people hate.
