Don't take it personally, but I can't have any respect for people (or their opinion) who use the phrase "epic fail"...makes one sound like those immature "cool" kids on the web.
One of the key technologies powering slashdot is something called "Edy Tors". This powerful system ensures that you never have to search for a story ever again. Instead, all you have to do is wait, and the story will re-appear on the front page, as if by magic.
Keep in mind that this is a technology being pioneered by slashdot, and is not yet mature. Sometimes, stories get missed, and while the normal response time is within a week (occasionally, the system is so responsive, it activates within 24 hours), it has been known to take a year.
When you see such a story, please notify the staff immediately by posting a response to the story entitled "DUPE" (that is, "Detected Useful Post by Edy tors"). While mentioning chilled urine in the post is recommended, it is not required.
In this post you are also welcome to test the Slashdot Automated Abuse Detection System (SAADS), by cursing at the Edy Tors idle process (codenamed kdawson).
Actually, TFS says he was shot in the car. For these to both be true, the cops would have had to have found a drive-through temple. I guess it would make confession more convenient.
Given, however, that the incident occurred in a Muslim area, finding such a temple seems unlikely...
I would leave the icons working. It then is just the taskbar that doesn't work. Nothing is more frustrating then a system that works half of the time. If it doesn't work at all, users will just trow in the towel.
You say that like Windows doesn't do it by itself already...
2.3) Set the task bar to "Autohide" and move it to the top of the screen.
2.6) If it's a desktop compter, use the monitor controls to stretch/move the screen upwards enough to hide the remaining visible part of the taskbar.
AND
Replace #3 with:
3) Right-click desktop, go to "Arrange Icons By" -> and untick "Show Desktop Icons".
Wait, what? When was the last time you typed your password hash into a website? That doesn't mean that your passwords are stored in plain text.
When you change or set your password into a well-programmed website, it hashes the password (hopefully with a one-way algorithm), and stores the hash. When you enter your password in the future, it hashes what you enter with the same algorithm originally used, and compares the hashes, to see if they are the same. If they are, then the password is the same, or you've managed a 1 in eleventy billion chance at picking an entry that has a hash collision with your password.
GP is assuming that the mentioned institution uses this sort of password protection system, and when the operator asks for your password, they type it in and click "Check Password", and wait for the program to say either "Password Correct" or "Password Incorrect". This would mean that the hashes are being compared.

It's not called the Untested Slapdash Bolt-on for no reason...
Yes, and he screwed it up.
Yes, the reflections are all wrong.
It's a statement of personal belief or intent. It doesn't need research or citation.
No, no it isn't. phanboy_iv has explicitly stated that he/she(/it?) will place that wager. What you are seeing is first-hand - a direct quote.
If that had actually said "Democrats have been doing it for just as long", then yes, citation would have been needed.
You've got me curious as well. If it's not too much trouble, can you CC me in as well? Or you could put the info in a journal entry ;)

Epic fail.

Your help in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Easy question. The pages aren't made with standards compliance or cross browser compatibility in mind. They are made to render correctly in IE.
You say that like Windows doesn't do it by itself already...
You missed some bits.

Of course, this is not a given.
Only wimps use tape backup: _real_ men just upload their important stuff on ftp, and let the rest of the world mirror it ;)
Actually, It's New Zealand for sheep. We in Australia run both sheep and cattle.
Now that's a hell of a markup! The apple logo is worth $0.02, but causes the cost of the computer to rise by $200+.
It's not the execution, it's the cake.
Note that, in Portal, execution and cake seem to be linked...
Frankly, I don't want to live anywhere in the USA.
No offense intended.
