What about the "loose" syntax programming languages? I'm talking about the higher-level languages (don't get me started on markup languages like HTML that was butchered so badly that "quirks mode" had to be developed in order for everything to not look like shit). Also, don't forget about the "else if" (many languages) vs. "elseif" (some languages) vs. "elsif" (Perl) vs. "elif" (Python) problem.
Also: "native English speaker" and "naive English speaker" are one of the few phrases that mean the same thing despite the typo.
So, are we talking about 1337 speak, AOL speak, or both?
Some of my friends and I will talk using mock AOL or 1337 speak on some forums and such, but like I said, it's only to mock those who talk like that all the time. Being able to say "el oh el you poned that nub" via a microphone in online games is also a fun way just to agitate the other players if they start to get too serious about the internet. So, remember that the next time you see people shitting out their messages; they might be doing it like that on purpose (which takes an extraordinarily large amount of effort due to grammar and spelling, in a sense, being tied into your fingers as you type, thus slowing you down when you try to intentionally spell in a certain way).
Also, I've noticed that a large amount of the people who can't use proper grammar and spelling in their posts, emails, etc, are also usually quite stupid to begin with.
Speaking of which, it seems that the only way to really appreciate the 13.1 systems in theatres is to be in an empty theatre seeing a really audio-rich movie.
Why don't we just lock children away until they're adults. That way we won't have to worry about them and they will grow up to be perfect, healthy, safe and sane and we won't have to baby-proof everything.
We do; it's called school and the media. Problem is, they're all quite unreliable...
I suspect that operating systems and web clients have now reached the point where they offer much more features than I need and actually use.
I agree about the OS part, but for web browsers, I think that Firefox is a bit too slim for my taste. In fact, I have at least 40 extensions for Firefox with no actual slowdown.
Then, of course, there are custom builds available that also take a load off via SSE/2 instruction sets.
This is why I usually stick with sites I use regularly such as Wikipedia (and its affiliates), GameFAQs, Slashdot, Google, SourceForge, ImageShack, deviantART, and some others. I either donate, buy a subscription, or both. Besides, I know how to properly cite something, so those sites I might nab a bit of info from get properly credited, and others who read what it is I wrote, if interested in the topic, might check out the sites and sources I used, thus generating more customers.
You know what I do instead of letting ads through? I donate to sites and projects that I regularly use. I buy stocks in corporations that provide me with a lot of my goods (such as CNet and Google).
Speaking of which, Google actually hits the nail a lot harder on delivering successful advertising; people get ads about things they usually care about rather than the latest "GUESS HOW MANY PREGNANT TEENS SAID THE SAME THING!?!?!?!?!? LOLOLOLOLAWL" ad that *click.net is serving to the public.
I completely agree with the grandparents here that this is a free market at work, and just because Adblock could be running *click.net and other shitty advertisers out of business in the next few years, it will only open new innovations like Google ads or, *gasp*, donating!! Or buying their products! Or, y'know, the other successful business models that other companies do fine with.
Which is why they have 10 TB of space. Is the server only for kernel development/source code, or is this also a mirror for downloading snapshots/compiled sources?
I thought it was bad everytime somebody brought up the politically correct way of referring to "cybercriminals" and whatnot, but now you're bring race into this? Touche
I've been using whitelisting with [first party] cookies (generally with sites I'm a member of) and javascript (only for sites I use that require it such as gmail). Normally this would be a tedious task, but I have someextensions to help me out when it comes to security in this manner.
Actually, I have probably over 40 extensions installed right now, but those are some of the most useful.
Maybe it's just like viruses and worms are flooding in through POP3 and LDAP, and spyware is flooding through HTTP, and annoying ditzes are flooding through Oscar...
So? That's an option for the DivX Create bundle thinger; it's not required for use. Also, it'll be pretty easy to weed those out considering they'll have a.divx extension to differentiate from the standard AVI container.
Throughout the Cold War, Communism was the buzz word used to validate any of the government's action. Why hasn't there been a McCarthy yet to reveal a list of terrorists involved in the government and other famous things? And what color should be associated with terror? I vote brown.
Side note: I can't even read the fucking script confirmation picture anymore, it seems to have gotten Parkinson's disease.
The FCC is basically shooting themselves in the foot by even worrying about the broadcast flag. TV networks make their money from advertisers, and publicising this so much is definitely worrying the advertisers on where they should spend their money.
Thanks, FCC, for screwing over _everyone_ once again.
Well, there's the Mandalorian Wars and Master Revan & Malak's downfall to the dark side, and even stuff before the Mandalorian Wars. Although it happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, there was still plenty of time before that time, and still plenty of galaxies beyond the primarily focused-on galaxies.

First we need a **AA corporation that is hellbent on taking down Osama and/or all terrorists.

And this would be a bad thing why? ;)

GNU/Google for 2008!
Sounds like they had a knowledgable level 1 tech support person instead of the usual outsourced technician citing things from an FAQ...

I graciously declined the offer.
I kinda figured as so since you didn't post as AC...

Well, I saw this in the article at PIV:

The Motion Picture Association of America provided valuable assistance to the investigation.
So not even the FBI or DHS could get an account into ET? Wow, it really was private.
