  1. Re:Good coverage on USA 193 Shootdown Set For Feb 21, 03:30 UTC · · Score: 1

    The surely it's a Hitile rather than a Missile.

  2. Re:They know very well this doesn't work on ISP Block on Pirate Bay Not Having Desired Effect · · Score: 1

    Tele2 is much bigger than a single country. They have a habit of buying up local European ISPs and re-branding them as Tele2. I installed a DSLAM Element Management System for Tele2 on Solaris (Navis Access! yeah!) in Vienna and there were some really sharp people working there. It was my first real customer install having just moved from a testing group and I'd never tunneled X11 traffic over ssh (which was all new stuff then). Their guy had to help me out, very embarrassing.

    France, November 29th.

    That's where I'm getting mine!

  4. "He's got a board, with a nail in it!" on 'Haute Cuisine' on Mars · · Score: 1

    While the aliens weigh Bart and Homer, Lisa explores. She discovers the cook reaching for a spice rack. ``This will give the humans the perfect flavor...'' He licks his lips and carries off the pot. Lisa looks at the cookbook: ``How to Cook Humans.'' She rushes back to the dining room and shows the family her discovery. Nobody, but NOBODY eats the Simpsons! -- Homer, ``Hungry Are the Damned'' in ``Treehouse of Horror'' (Homer's face is smeared with barbecue sauce.) Kodos takes the book and blows off the dust. The real title is ``How to Cook Humans.'' Lisa blows off more dust: ``How to Cook Humans.'' Kodos blows off yet more dust. The full title reads ``How to Cook Forty Humans.'' The aliens are shocked and hurt that the Simpsons thought they were going to eat them. (``Frankly, you people made pigs of yourselves.'') Serak the Preparer cries.

  5. Re:What the hell is the big deal? on PowerBook As A New Kind Of Human Interface Device · · Score: 1

    Call me when they have a camera in there like the Sony vaio picturebook used to, and you can wave your arms at it and such.

    My SGI Indy workstation had this years ago!

  6. Driving License as ID card? on House Approves Electronic ID Cards · · Score: 3, Informative

    What happens if you don't have a driving license? I've managed to get all the way to thirty without needing one. I ride a bike everywhere and take the plane and train for work travel. Ben
