I would also worry a little about these little buggers mutating into something not so benign. The bloodstream is a really foreign environment for yeast...lots of strange(for the yeast) stuff floating around.
On a more serious note, everytime I see something like this, the first thing that pops into my head is: 'This is going to end badly...somehow involving gorillas freezing to death in the winter'.
Gahh! Wouldn't you know, I switch to Lynx to avoid getting goatse'd and RickRolled...and what do you do? ASCI goatse!! You're despicable, evil, and talented!
If Opera keeps opening Speed Dial and Zooming In and Out, please be aware that this not a bug. It may be useful to disable Face Gestures for a better experience.
That's why I switched to firefox, and surf pr0n sites with the Penis Enhanced Gestures extension. PEG it, man! Besides, it's disturbing to find yourself in an intense surfing experience and suddenly find yourself face to face with Grandma 'cause you inadvertently opened your IM app.
Also remember that wiping your cache is recommend after visiting untrusted websites.
You are SO screwed, man. Not only are those ConFlicker files stashed in/etc, but they are scattered all over the place! I gave up trying to find and delete all of them, there were just too many. I heard of a quick easy way though...it's a scanner for *nix, I think.
This story is one that I'm not exactly sure is legit or not. Do we have to wait for tomorrow for the stories saying, "No, really, we weren't kidding about Conficker"? (We might need to wait that long to/believe/ them, I guess.)
Well you could cower in fear until tomorrow worrying about it, or you could try this new technique called RTFA. In 30 seconds or less, you will have all of your questions answered.
No, I'm not going to tell you that TFA said it was a joke, because then you'd have wait until tomorrow to know if I was telling the truth.
Because I like US Dollars! The more, the merrier, in fact.
Do you miss your sense of humour, or are glad it is gone?
Damn, I hate to see how traumatized you are when you find out I haven't really been in my Mom's basement since 1976! Uhm..oops!
Hell, I'm a broken down 51 year old fat man with a heart condition and Teflon(tm) kneecaps. I would not realistically be involved with this anyway(you the only one that took me seriously), so what difference does it make if my non-existent pay is in USD, Rubles, one of the Francs, Pounds, Yen, or Monopoly Money? Make it bottle caps, I loved collecting them in Fallout!
...ignoring the fact that the NRA ignores 90% of the bill of rights altogether.
Time you get educated. NRA==National Rifle Association.
ACLU==American Civil Liberties Union.
Rifles comprise a subset of Civil Liberties, Civil Liberties are not a subset of Rifles.
So it makes perfect sense that an organization existing solely to champion Second Amendment rights(ie:Rifles) should only support that mission.
As for the ACLU, they exist to support the whole of Civil Rights, which include Second Amendment rights, along with the rest of the Civil Rights.
And 'Shakrai (717556)' is 100% correct, the ACLU runs away from all 2nd Amendment cases it can. They are quick and slippery, so they are phenomenally successful at sidestepping them.
Why? I'm not sure, but it's not a new social/cultural phenomenon.
In the USA, it was not until 1836(in Mass.) that the first 'child labor law' was passed in the entire USA.[note:'law'-singular form]
Up until then, and even way past then, children were seen as a resource, and occasionally, an investment. This was the state of affairs/attitude from first landing on this continent, until (vague, grey, ambiguous line) somewhen shortly after the Korean War.
Okay...for the first ~250 years, it was so. The past 60(or so) years it has really flipped around.*(old habits/mentalities die hard)
From the wiki link above:
20th century
Before the 1930s children were routinely exploited in a variety of settings throughout American society. Frequently beginning their working lives before their tenth birthday, children worked in hazardous jobs at mines, mills, factories, sweatshops, and on farms, with little or no wages. Labor laws did not exist, and the common perception of the ease with which children were manipulated made them targets for a variety of rights violations.
In the 1980s the United States provided global leadership by acting as a lead among nations in crafting the Convention on the Rights of the Child, or CRC. After the United Nations adopted the CRC in 1989, the United States became a signatory nation in 1994. However, to date the country has refused to ratify the Convention, joining only one other nation in the world with that status. Among the reasons the United States has failed to ratify the Convention is the fact that the Convention clearly states that anyone under the age of 18 is a child. The U.S. government has reservations about how that would affect matters when a 16- or 17-year old commits a crime; currently, in certain instances that child can be tried as an adult in the U.S. courts. Several politicians have said that many of the declarations included in the document are not issues for which the federal government is in charge. There is currently no apparent effort within the federal government to adopt the CRC.[22]
Bill Cosby used this mindset for humor.[see: 4. Kill the Boy - 4:07] [paraphrase-it's been a long time!]
Mother [speaking to child]: "You're going to drive me to my grave!" Father [speaking to same child (cue: low, rumbling, deep, ominous voice)]: "I'm going to drive you to your grave! I brought you into this world, I can take you out... make another one just like you!"
That album[Bill Cosby:Himself] was one of tne of the most insightful[and funny] observations of human nature and USA culture I have heard.
I don't know for sure. Sadly, neither Psychology or Sociology were interesting enough to me when I went to school. I have self-educated myself on those subjects, but would not consider myself knowledgeable enough to definitely give you the answer...just sharing some of my observations aand speculations.

ROFL!
That made my day, thanks!
Yeah, but at least you'll be going in style! (personally, I would have modded you up)
Gahh!

You're despicable, evil, and talented!
Well, I hate to break it to you, but that conficker blurb was also....No I can't do that to you.
Just don't RTFA. It will take that one little bright gem of your day away.

"That's no moon!"
LOL! I was standing in line at my bank when I read this, you insensitive clod!
I did get some strange looks while I was giggling uncontrollably.
Well Done!

That ain't all you have to wipe!
Okay, okay...I'm going!

*opens Konsole, types in 'rm -rf'*
I guess I'm going to make an partition on my HDD and install XP, 'cause I never get RickRolled anymore. I have to RickRoll myself.
And no, ConFlicker will not run on WINE...I've tried! Stupid Linux! ;-)

What a maroon!

*Disclaimer, I've been out of the house on my own since I was 17. I'm 51 now, and Mom lives 1,400 miles away.
Take your pick:
* Wyoming County, New York
* Wyoming County, Pennsylvania
* Wyoming County, West Virginia
However, I also failed to find this county in NJ.

Back on topic:
IANAL, but I wonder if this court decision, or even more so,this one would apply here?
*More can be found here.
Uhmm...'cause all of the pics were taken, stored, and distributed via cell phones?
Wait! Is this a trick question?!?!?!?
Is this going to cost me as much as Scientology did? *trembles and wets pants*
