Hey, hold on there. As a fellow atheist I say Star Wars is way better than all the other religions. Why? Because they've been the motivation behind millions of deaths over the millenia. (Star Wars has been responsible for, maybe 6.)
So we like to think. I have my suspicions that half of slashdot is using $499 EMachines boxen running XP-SP1 and staying alive using Norton firewall.;)
SCO has a product and engineers to develop it? I thought they were just a crew of ninja attack lawyers and seven-figure art history majors that hung out in a Taco Bell and watched their stock price.
Personally, I wouldn't ever jack my brain into a public network. I'd rather not be "0wn3d" and have to pay a script-kiddie $250,000 to have him return my vision to normal rather than having it be static goatse in both eyes. (Or worse.)
Did you even see the pictures? Count on Abu Gharib being nothing compared to what they're up to in the secret and highly restricted detention centers.
Show me where Americans are gassing anyone. Oh, wait. They're not! Do I even need to say anything? I can't decide if anyone worthwhile needs me to point out the obvious. Regardless, hint: we do them one at a time rather than in a pile.
We've had them locked up for as much as four years now. Due process of law. We need to either charge them with a crime or release them.
(Also, the supreme court seems to think that this should happen in actual courts, with proper procedure and without secret evidence rather than the "tribunals" that Rummy seems to prefer.)
Maybe because they don't disagree with him? We're torturing people who we've held without charge in secret prisons for four years. Does that sound like what a good democratic nation should be doing? Didn't we start a war a few years back with the declared purpose of ending this kind of nonsense?
Also, Durbin's my senator, and he certainly isn't gonna lose my vote over this. Knowing this state that's a common sentiment. Illinois (at least up in the north-east corner where all the people are anyway) is what's called "still sane."
Why do you people always seem to think "hating the regime == hating America"?
If we actually hated America we'd be happy to let our so-called leaders destroy the hell out of it. We're fighting them. The proper conclusion should be obvious to anyone whose brain is not made of sour cream.
If I look through my cookies I see nothing but marketing companies as the origins and I have Firefox set to nuke them all at the end of each session. (All sites work properly that way, but I'm fairly hard to track.)
Most people who have anything worth backing up do. (At least after they realize that these cute little recordable DVD's aren't nearly as reliable as one might hope. * Voice of experience. *)
BitTorrent already hashes the download with SHA1, so unless the Spyware industry has come up with some practical way to generate collisions it's not the pieces that are corrupt. It's the whole torrent.
How long before Redmond calls up to explain why doing so would not be in Dell's best interest? Something along the lines of "Those Windows licenses you're including for retail? We're gonna start making you pay us retail for them."
One thing that TFA doesn't appear to go into is compatibilty with previous versions and third-party (ie ffmpeg) decoders. Anyone have information about that?

Wouldn't it be cheaper, easier, and more effective to, I don't know, build energy systems that don't release carbon? Just a thought.
IPTables is fine to deal with so long as you get Shorewall to translate "makes sense" into "what the shit?" ;)
They do, but I think the copyright industry will get the point: "Spend more money on Sweden."
SCO has a product and engineers to develop it? I thought they were just a crew of ninja attack lawyers and seven-figure art history majors that hung out in a Taco Bell and watched their stock price.
For video transcoding and rough editing with a GUI check out Avidemux. Runs on all the various *nixes.
Read the, read the article? Blasphemy! You must be educated in the ways of Slashdot . . . . . .

The worst part is that these wastes of sperm are, and will continue to blame us, the opposition, for shit hitting the fan.
"How dare you call us out for human rights violations and economic insanity?! You're hurting America! Terrorist."
I fucking hate humans . . . . . . .

Translation for the American nationalists (they'll need it): "If his mother had fucked up your life and broken the world."
How in the HELL was this modded 5?
Because the internet is available all over this "the world" and 95% of the 6.5 billion people who inhabit it are really pissed at the USA?
Oh, right. One of those "joke" things I have so much trouble spotting on the internets.

You could do that on a 286? I've never seen an audio-tape tape-drive on anything younger than a comodore 128.
My old 486 could use VHS though.

Right Thing (tm) from the same people who've brought the internet such gems as the DMCA, the PATRIOT act, and software patents.

exploiting slave labor conditions under totalitarian regimes.
And you're saying that big multinationals don't do that?
