those were the days cherished by the chosen few, kissed by the Geek God, his children were happy in their cubicles happily glued to their monitors..
then came an article claiming that geekiness is actually "kewl", and people were actually yearning to be one. That marked the end of geekdom. Now every other person using ipod and knowing how to download firefox considers himself/herself a geek, making the existence of the actual geeks as minority. Maybe, the geeks would start yearning to be just normal, and then it would reverse..
I think it is the same sompetition, where an Indian (from Bangalore) won $50,000 for a comp named "schoolpak", more info on the competition can be found http://www.startsomethingpc.com>here
Zonk is travelling faster than light, and due to time contraction, their "other day" is our few hours back.. and the reason for dupes is also the same.. they(eds) dont remember stories posted a couple of hrs coz it is days in their timeframe!
..Consider it a public service: if I didn't screw up occasionally, a lot of angry readers would have no other way to vent their rage in a safe environment.
what are you talking? if we were to direct our anger on you, then what is the-punch-bag-of-slashdot-dept CowboyNeal for?
doesnt matter much.. with MS the IT dept. is assured yo have penty of work, like fixing things around for every user and with updates, you get more hours to work (this is good as long as your pay is hourly)..
with non-MS clients, its another day.. but you could consider the option of having to make them believe that these products are almost (if not the same) same workability..
Imagine, I forgot my cell at home, and would like to call a friend whose number I dont remember. But I have access to a landline. So if I could call my cell from the landline, look up for that person's number and also maybe able to call from my cell in such a way that the call originates from my cell, but the landline to cell call is treated as ordinary: landline-to-cell-to-friend call seemingly originting from my cell, something like a reverse forwarding facility.
Take 2: As of now, I can call my cell remotely, enter my PIN and then hear to the voice messages.
A similar idea: Imagine I have a PC at my school or home, to which I can make a call, and make a request to search for a particular location, or address (you know google around), or maybe get a detail or phone number, of a place I dont know or a place I fed into the system, and then it sends me the info via SMS or as a voice?
If I could remotely log-in to my system at home via cell phone. I can send email by using Blackberry but thats not what I am looking for..
I am not sure if anything from the above is already in implementing stage/implemented that I am unaware of.. if somebody could throw some light..
Hi, I am a grad student and was traveling to Reno for a conference. At the airport, I thought of working a bit on my thesis and booted my laptop which had linux on it. I was suspiciously being observed by some Men In Black, but I ingnored them. When I typed "ls" and the many many files just scrolled by, they came and arrested me and said I was hacking and doing some malicious activity.
there is a greasemonkey script which shows Slashdot index page with links as having coral links, mirrirdot links and google cache links next to every link!
..the present day singers believe in lip-syncing, this way they are not the "cause" for noise pollution into your ears, it is the original singer.
on a serious note, ear-buds are also known to cause ear infection, especially when shared. Maybe directional speakers (heard somewhere) can help, which can beam sound in a particular direction (assuming you are in office/room).
MarkEst1973 was one of the first to write to tell us MSNBC is reporting that a Judge has cleared the way for Google to hire former Microsoft employee Kai-Fu Lee.

I am a web developer (sure, laugh all you want)
I aint laughing on your salary or position, but you being a web developer should know to give a warning before linking to pdf files. It does annoy people.
damnit! didnt know "lesser than", "greater than" symbols dont work, and dont include the text/comments b/w them, and yes, I am new here and forgot that html works here.. here it is again after the fizz has gone:
..well, at the heart of the bag is my laptop[space available for sale, if you can bid higher than Dell] , which is one of the best in the present market. It has an awesome config [some hyperlinks on "in-depth info"]. I might forget my pants but I never forget my [insert some elec components/peripherals to top it up].

hey it makes me wonder: if dupes are pathetic, then what about the mirrors that mirror the dupe? greater sin?
nobody, coz I just shot Repeat. Problem solved.
what are you talking? if we were to direct our anger on you, then what is the-punch-bag-of-slashdot-dept CowboyNeal for?
I was wondering if there is a DO-CALL-ME List?
dont forget the financial aid.. who wants to pay freakin 8k/semester, and add to that books and et.al.
