I have the same result as sjaskow, I don't even get Firefox 3.6.3's new dialog to add an exception. If I try to add an exception manually, Firefox can't find a certificate on Slashdot's server.
When you try https://slashdot.org/, does your browser stay there or revert back to http? If the former, what browser are you using? IE8 fails here too.
See what I'm talking about? "-1 Flamebait" for endorsing widespread encryption: security and freedom in the same package. If Slashdot had a even a free, self-signed certificate, my post wouldn't have been sniffed and censored while being routed through *.gov.cn.
It's either that, or I hit a little too close to home for some late-adopting AOL customer to whom, by sheer misfortune, was victimized by that dastardly prince. In that case, I'm weally, weally sowwy widdle guy. =(
Haha yeah, that's the link you care about if your some kinda AOL newbie saving up to help that Nigerian prince. Nice try BitZtream, but I seriously doubt anyone on Slashdot fell for it! =)
Anyway, here's the real link guys, for geeks that care about their dignity:
[...] I forgot I shouldn't admit I actually feel a moral obligation to actually pay for the music I buy [...]
Why so hard on yourself? I'm grateful that you pay for the music you buy. If it weren't for better and righteous people like you, there would be nothing left to share... So I've been told.
[...] don't understand he difference between Bit Torrent let alone [...]
The difference between BitTorrent and what? If you're referring to the difference between BitTorrent and BitTorrent, the difference is negligible at best.
If you click the site's icon in the URL bar, you should be led to a dialog that allows you to add an exception (to accept that particular certificate then and thereafter).
WA[A]S signals get used mostly by air and maritime vehicles in the North America.
WAAS and EGNOS are used by every GPS receiver manufactured by Garmin in the past few years, unless the user manually disables it. Since OEMs like Garmin use chips from the same few GPS chip manufacturers, it's likely that most or all recently manufactured receivers incorporate WAAS and EGNOS.
FYI:
WAAS = Wide Area Augmentation System
EGNOS = European Geostationary Navigation Overlay System
For example, how many of you see a movie adaptation of a book only to have them cast an actor that looks nothing like you imagined it?
I've had a book do this to it's own earlier chapters. My father read me Hitchhiker's Guide when I was little. If I remember correctly, partway through the book, all of the sudden Arthur has a beard (with a bone in it)! The bone was inconsequential, but the sudden beard was an inconvenient disturbance.
I can confirm this. While being tailgated with high-beams, a brief 2,000,000 candlepower pulse out the rear window produces a rapid and dramatic change in the rouge target's trajectory.

Send your resume and an email; point that shit out to them. You've got a sharp eye for details; maybe they'll offer you a job!
[I]f you can't proofread your own damn website, what guarantees are there that you pay attention to detail in whatever work you provide?
Clearly they've got a lot of work that needs to be done, so they're probably too busy to babysit while you're working. And should you fall behind, hey... Forget about it!

Still waiting on Slashdot to join the 21st century.

Wrong site, jock. Now scram, before you get a specially-crafted wedgie!

cffrost calls whatever Obama likes a bunch of stupid bullshit.
[...] vote for the party you like a lot instead of the party you like a little, the party you don't like at all wins.
This isn't a significant risk unless the voter resides in a swing state.

Tuned mass dampers might be more appropriate.
