All the other countries don't really exist. You see, Oceana needs to have enemies in order to keep the people focused, and subservient to the government. It is all part of the plan....... oh shit... its the Ministry of Love. See you in a few years...
.. NYTimes comes out against paperless newspapers, suggesting they can be used by terrorists to organize attacks. They suggest homeland secuirty shut down these organizations.
NYTimes vigorously denies that their recommendation has nothing to do with lagging print sales, and the fact that everyone cicumvents their "registration" screen.
I got it cuz the Best Buy guy sold me an 'AOL trial' CD for only $5. It was 2500 hours or 30 days. I chose '2500 hours' cuz I only use it for like two hours a day.
Jesus, pretty soon you'll need a gig of RAM and 20 GB of free hard drive space to play Solitaire.
Well, I am not Jesus, but I will jump in anyway: This time has already come. You also need a 19" LCD panel. Thanks goodness I talked to the Best Buy sales rep before buying, or I might have ended up with a cheaper system that wouldn't let me play solitaire. And my internet is so much faster now too!
If metadata uses a universally accepted standard for its markup... yes. I don't know the specifics on how this will all be implemented, but closed standars is the only thing that would make me think twice about implementing.
Blind patriotism to a country that holds all of your values in opposition is the saddest form of ignorance a person can possess
1) I doubt this is true. Does the US really hold values entirely in opposition to yours?
2) Abolitionists risked their lives for their beliefs in a country founded on slavery. You call them "idiots" and "the saddest ignorants". I call them heroes.
That's a very archaic way of thinking. If printers didn't hold over 5000 pages, then people would never print what they wanted to print, and people would never use them. It's all about supply, demand, and market forces, my good man.
History teaches that anytime ANYONE gets enough power, they begin to use it for less than altruistic purposes.
Google seems like a great company now. But they are sitting on more and more personal data. What happens when leadership changes hands at Google? What happens when the feds decide to confiscate that data? Then will they still be the "do not evil" company?
Despite the group orgasm Slashdot has at the name of "Google", they are a company. Companies are neither evil or good. They exist to generate wealth. The more successful the company, the more not-so-great things they can do to generate more wealth. This has happened for centuries. Unfortunately, the US has the collective memory of a gnat.... so history will repeat itself.

This is why Oracle sucks. They are always trying to yank you around with licensing. They are the only company that makes Microsoft look like a saint.
How is this a troll? My guess is someone has seen the joke 500 times, but doesn't realize what it means.
+1 funny or +1 informative.
He must cry himself to sleep every night.... on a pillow stuff with Franklins.
I'd hate to be him.

fuck you, if I ever meet you I will kick your ass
Wow. I hope Adrilla never shows up at your mom's basement then. He should be safe anywhere else.
Hey, moron. You forgot to yell "frist post". How do you expect to ever make it into the GNAA?
.. it really is "EverCrack". Just like a good drug dealer, they hook you with "free samples", then reel you in when you are hooked.
Brilliant!

If you're on Slashdot, you should know what a Live-CD is...good god....
In that case, I'd suggest Slashdot only carry stories on women, soap (not SOAP) and sun tanning techniques.
... are all jumping into the movie scene after Mel Gibson's movie. When will it end?
I never could get it all downloaded.

Microsoft Paint ought to be enough for anybody!

Anyone know more than me?

Don Quixote is my hero.
Because, of course, things get better when folks just cry and run away rather than staying and fighting.
And since I own the patent on "The process of making insightful comments in a ditigal forum,"
I've scanned Slashdot. No one has any examples of prior art. You are in like Flyn!
Not Paris. The French would complain that Google is eating into their tourism profits and expel them from the country.
Not yet.
