    Goatse.cx (usually pronounced "goat-see dot see ex", often truncated to goatse, often referenced by one of its current URLs, goat.cx, occasionally called goatsex) is one of the most infamous Internet shock sites. Its front page contains a sexually explicit picture, hello.jpg, featuring a man wearing a gold ring on his left hand (and nothing else) manually stretching his anus and rectum to a diameter roughly equal to the width of his hand. Below the anus, the man's dangling penis and testicles ar

    True, and absolutely hilarious. Almost any word can be searched for in Google, but to see it mention penis and testicles without any explicit effort on the searcher's part is always *clears throat* interesting.

    Will we reach a point where attaching this bionic eye becomes an elective surgery where someone wants to simply improve their eyesight beyond 20/20; beyond what a mere "human" can see?

    I can't imagine how mad the MLB and IOC would be about that. Somehow I expect fair sports to be obsolete soon (if not already) with such enhancement.

    ...Slashdot editors do cliché posts too?

    Seriously, are these e-Books PDFs? If so I can probably write mine in XSL-FO, use FOP to make one of these, and then see my work on cellphones. That'd be sweet.

    The "Microsoft fan site" has saved me a lot when I've reinstalled Windows. I'd install Linux, but I already (sad as it sounds) gotten used to "the enemy"'s system. Besides, it's a family computer and they barely know teh Windows, nevermind a different GUI (or text shell) like Linux. Guess you can call me a "Microsoft fan" too then.

    I believe they've delayed Half-Life 2 and another game before that, and went to court for not paying Valve royalties for its cyber cafe games, and now this...they sure have some serious issues. Makes me glad I have SDKs I can build some small games with to pass time, 'cause these guys don't want to pay for, release or support their games without a lot of reluctance. That's what I see.

  24. Exactly. on G4TV To Preview Half-Life 2 Expansion · · Score: 1

    Just after the launch, many fans here expected it to get a 10 or a 9.5 from GameSpot. When they gave it a 9.2, I wasn't surprised. It still had some quirks, and that damn StutterBug was hardly acceptable (though I was running it on a proc just 0.1 GHz below minimum). If anything, I'm glad it got the 9.2--it seemed awesome, but a bit too creaky to me. Steam's memory-hogging (since it uses .NET I believe but IANA Steam expert) didn't help either.
