So, if I understand this, we're mostly white, mostly male, mostly can't spell, and are mostly not sufficiently computer literate to turn on the spell checker. 'Tis indeed a position vested with a certainly privilege - rarity (I dare hope).
Perhaps the encouragement of the immigration of well-educated, computer literate Mexican ladies is the answer ? Don't know - just trying to complete a system of checks and balances with a quiet suggestion.
To each his own. I didn't see anything else but the slashdot notice. So I read the release notes and then downloaded it to my LINUX machine, installed it, and tested. It works like a charm and I now have better security - thanks to slashdot and, of course, mozilla
I say please put notices like this on the front page . It may not be news for you, bubba, but it surely was for me. As I understand it, the dialogue about new versions only happens on Windows machines - and if you're running Windows you need and deserve all the help you can get.
All this I know, but you're missing my point. Reading your post, I got the impression that you were a little "shook up" by this news. I was only recommending calm - there's not a whole lot to be done - until election day. I repeat, the good guys win in the end - if they have a long enough memory and are willing to wait for their chance. Keep smiling.
Where you the anonymous coward who made the original post ? Just curious on this point. I don't do crack - it is addictive. Shit you can get rid of. And I try. I invite you to do the same - anonymously or not. It's easy to start - just take a deep breath, stand up, and shout, "My name is (fill in name here), NO SHIT!" It may help if you do this while looking in a mirror - at least for the first few times.
I am bestruck with wonderment, sir. Never been able to consider the north end of a south-bound camel anonymously before. Always thought that shit, like beauty, was to be found in the eye of the beholder.
"As an example, I remember that a production fuel-cell car was promised by Mercedes to be available in showrooms by 2001...then 2004...then 2007...then 2009... And we still wait".
Oh yeah, Microsoft Vista is what it reminds me of.
Just shows, - ole Bill ain't the only boy who's takin' his time.
I find your post worrisome. This ruling seems to have shocked you. You must not let "them" get to you like that - bad for your health. Try to remember this on election day. In fact, a shorter letter to your rep. might just have said "we shall remember this ruling come the next elections, and the elections after that, and the elections........" but you get the idea. Keep smiling - the good guys win in the end.
I'm with you. Rolling around under the sheets (or over them when it's too hot) with your favourite person is the best way to shake off a stressful day. Fighting be damned. Baby-making practise is the thing. Use the gym to keep supple and limber up for the next practise session. Fighting in the pub / bus queue - the hell with that fellows, I gotta go home. Somebody waiting for me. Booze makes me sleepy - might miss practise.
"Imagine the market for say Pamela Anderson's phone list..." pictures yes, 'phone list no.
I refuse to believe that this exists
"the phone list of the President" Name one president in office who knows how to use the 'phone ! Majority of them can't find the way to the toilet without help.
Didn't I see it mentioned here that animals are not as dumb as doctors and lawyers would have you believe. I think the reason given was that animals have neither doctors nor lawyers. But I could be mistaken.
"By excluding users of *BSD, Linux, OS X and other OSs, they are dramatically reducing the size of their network, which seems like would only negatively impact the entire project."
I thought (as a Linux user) that people who used these OS's did so to avoid daily contact with shit. If this is indeed the case, what is exactly the complaint here ?
There's actually nothing wrong with mingling with those of the same interest, in fact quite the opposite. As an analogy, if you are learning how to play the saxophone, are you gonna mingle with sky divers, or other saxophonists?
Hell of a question ! Sky-divers, obviously !
Also noticed this:-
"If you have no goal or purpose, then meeting random people is a great way to be introduced to new ideas and perspectives. But if you do have a goal or purpose, then you are simply losing focus and wasting time by being a dilettante."
And I have to say that it worried me. Am I a dilettante if I meet sky-divers randomly (during sky-diving)? Does it make a difference if they are playing the saxophone when we meet ? If I'm playing the saxophone ? Have you tried playing the saxophone while sky-diving ? Is doing such a thing a worthy goal or purpose - or am I simply a dilettante ?
Your post poses more questions than it answers. What tune(s) do you play when sky-diving and playing the saxophone ?
Jimmy Hoffa is alive and well - he lives in Mexico City. He has the apartment right next door to the one rented by Jesus Christ. G.W. Bush has an apartment on the floor below. So now you know.
"Which do we kill for stem cells... the old fuckers like myself (jk) or the unborn"
couldn't we at least consider compromise. Consider doing away with the under six months old to obtain the stem cells. The remains could be spit roasted - very tender (a very little tabasco sauce brings out the full flavour) - waste not, want not... and so on. Would also make a lot of voodoo practitioners happy by supplying them with a logical reason for their rituals. There are other cults out there too, just waiting to help out with their equally daft carryings-on.
By the way, just have to ask what the (jk) in your post means ? Could it be a simple typo ? Did you mean (jc) ? Just curious.

Why am I not surprised ?
Dream on, friend, dream on. Nothing wrong with dreaming.

We must set our objectives in order to achieve them.
You can't imagine ow relieved I am. I thought for a moment that all this was going on in a state named "Bush".

Saw this bit, and it reminded me of something :-

I've never seen a case where it wasn't. Though the word "oxymoron" or even "paradox" might be used to better effect than "redundant".

Can't, sorry

In other news : "Pearly Gates is not related to our friend Bill !" And she turned white and shuddered when I suggested it.
Hum - seems to require clarifying -

I missed something here. And so did my friend Adolf.
I don't do tags on Wednesdays
I noticed this bit :
and I failed utterly to understand how anyone can attain this level of incomprehension regarding the ways of the world.The real questions are, of course,
And the answers are obvious
Alas, the world is made that way ! Sobs

Oh good ! In fact, super ! I was worrying there for a minute.
