Why this is on Slashdot? I'm sure this is on a ton of WoW-centric messageboards, and rightly so, but this is a forum on science and technology, not about one particular game that just so happens that the site owners play.
I never even found out about this until I came to the US (as I am from Canada, where this stuff is banned), but I notice here that a lot of milk producers put "from cows not treated with rBST"
Though I'm usually not too worried about this kind of stuff, I ingest a lot of milk (1-1.33 L or 0.94-1.4 quarts) a day. I've found one brand I like and I just stick with it, it happens to have that 'from cows not..' label on it. I also remember when Monsanto sued a Canadian farmer when their patented wheat ended up contaminating a farmer's field, and they sued him for using their product without paying for it. There's an interesting bit under the last link I posted..
This may have been a joke, but I've always wondered, all these news stories say "news of 's kidnapping/murder/etc has appeared on an Islamic website", you do wonder, where are these websites? What chat rooms?
That's one I've never heard before. Reminds me of the Simpsons episode where Marge gets implants and Lisa goes "Your endownment's bigger than Harvard's" (and it follows something like "and Lisa takes the cake for the best off the cuff remark") Too bad I'm not at home, I'd upload the clip..
As a Canadian, I've seen a lot of good stories show up on CBC's website that they got from good, investigative journalism (kudos to the CBC). Yes, I realize the CBC is the state media (well, crown corporation), but I find they aren't bought by the government and they regularly air stories of interest to regular joe Canadians, and I'm also glad that the act lets them get to the important information without all the hiding and deceit I hear about in the US.
Also, I find it a bit funny that the politics version of Slashdot shows an American flag at the top where it says Slashdot, as if there weren't politics anywhere else..
Not to discourage you, but as with anything that's very popular, your input doesn't make a big enough difference to matter... For example, if I gather a group of friends to vote for a single item on a slashdot poll, our votes will get drowned out by the trend of the masses. So if you wanted to mess up the data obtained from these sites, you would need a HUGE movement.
I guess that would work too, default settings, haven't done a side by side test but I think it's equivalent.. remember to use a copy.. I don't know if you're sarcastic about the mspaint.exe thing, so I'll err on the cautious side, if you're running windows you just do start, run, mspaint.exe, enter (Microsoft Paint)
Can you find a source for this? I'm just not so sure because of the infinitely told story of Grey vs. Bell for the telephone, how Bell made it to the patent office first so his application was served first, etc etc..
I haven't read anything yet, but this isn't a patent, it's a patent application. You can tell the difference by looking for the words 'patent application' or by seeing that the # isn't a patent number but some sort of timestamp (20040107368). Patents are in the millions range with thousands seperators, these timestamps are pretty evident. These are the two patents in question, #s gotten from TFA:
Geocities has had this as far back as I can remember, this rule just means journal writers can't try and circumvent the displaying of ads on their journal, whether readers block them via say, Adblock Plus and the Filterset.G updater (look for the "Plus", not the original, and filterset is just below it, it is a set of filters maintained by people for Adblock) is another story
From the episode where Elaine "dances", this scene is after the fact...

Worker: I pressed through the rushes and there, the native dancers whirled before me: limbs flailing, arms akimbo, feet kicking up dust... (All workers laugh)
Elaine: What?

I didn't even really read the summary, but I got the word Bear, and was reminded of the reality series Billionaire vs Bear

You're taking my idea for the sequel, Snakes Off a Plane
Refer to this comment for some advice.
Really!
I was referring to computer division by 0, which gives us the +inf by IEEE standards
Why didn't they take the epoch when the site started, so they'd go up by +inf%?
Lame.

If your "JPG" is from a digital camera, they're usually oversized, try making a copy of it, opening it in mspaint.exe, and just doing a file->save
You'll then see the real difference
Anyone else want to know where they can download this? To play with it in a VM or something? Does anyone know where it is?

Why don't you use a real sig instead of comment spamming? There's a reason they're optional.
