    Yeah but now that the icebergs are melting, they will swim into the titanic and not the other way around!

    Read #6 on this article... An all-around cool article, even if maybe a switch doesn't do anything too harmful

    This kinda freaks me out though..

    It's not going to be 3.0?? I thought that was the decision since so many changes and additions/features are being put into this kernel..

    I used to live with a sense of danger. I had a bash alias so that every time i typed in 'rm', it would do 'rm -f'

  9. Clerks Nudie Booths conversation!!! on Self-Cleaning Glass · · Score: 4, Funny

    With this stuff, we won't need any jizz-moppers anymore! Read on:

    Randal: [reading magazine] Have you ever wondered how much the average jizz-mopper makes per hour?
    Dante: What's a jizz-mopper?
    Randal: He's the guy that cleans up the nudie booth after each guy jerks off.
    Dante: Nudie booth?
    Randal: Yeah, nudie booth. You've never been in a nudie booth?
    Dante: I guess not.
    Randal: Oh, it's great. There's this glass wall between you and these chicks, and they put on a show for you for like 10 bucks.
    Dante: What kinda show? [customer walks up to counter]
    Randal: They do the weirdest, craziest shit you like to see chicks do. They insert things into any opening on their body-ANY opening.
    Dante: Could we not talk about this now?
    Randal: The jizz-mopper's job is to clean off the glass after each guy shoots a load. I don't know if you noticed, but cum leaves streaks if you don't clean it right away.
    Customer: I will never come to this place again!
    Dante: I'm sorry? [I could have sworn he says 'excuse me']
    Customer: Using filthy language in front of the customers, you both should be fired.
    Dante: I'm sorry, I guess we got carried away.
    Customer: I don't know if sorry could make up for it, you've highly offended me.
    Randal:Well, if you think that's offensive, check this out! [shows him graphic picture from porn mag] I think you can see her kidneys!
    Customer: Aaaaargh!

    One extra insight -- what does the customer bring up to the counter?? You guessed it! Paper towels and glass cleaner! Hahaha, what an incredible movie

    No. If this bug was fixed months ago when it was first detected, then there would have been no problem. However, the slashdot ultimatum was issued and appropriately followed through.

    We will not tolerate ourselves to look stupid while accusing other companies of leaving security holes for months, and then doing it ourselves. Do it again, and we will slashdot you again. And yes, we will defeat your referrer. Thank you, have a nice day. :)

    I go to Ohio State, and we have an enormous football and tailgating culture there as well. This weekend's game is going to be absolutely crazy.

    But anyway, just bring a flask. I haven't gotten searched for one yet, hopefully you won't. Either that, or just get so hammered before the game that you're good for a few hours. That's been working for me too.

    On a sidenote, if anybody's watching College Gameday on ESPN at 10:30am EST, look out for the drunken bastard in a #32 jersey wearing facepaint that looks like The Ultimate Warrior's (in Scarlet and Gray, of course) -- That's me! The game starts at 3:37pm, that's a LONG time to tailgate. I'm so pumped!

    I seriously wish the editors didn't quote story submitters so often. Hell, I don't even care about the poor spelling and grammatical errors. The submitters post the LAMEST jokes and most irrelevant quips.

    Most submissions I see go well until there is a some sort of joke at the end, which is practically a modified clone of the "Imagine a Beowulf cluster of these" joke. Go ahead and see for yourself. Damned submission side-comments!

    I wouldn't be too worried about the kids these days. I haven't seen a kid outside in my neighborhood since Nintendo 64 came out years ago!

    I think they're too fat and clumsy to ride bicycles too.

    And if they do want to, their overprotective parents will make them wear 3 helmets, knee pads, wrist protectors, and 2 gallons of sunscreen. It's just not worth it anymore.

  19. Re:*Sigh* on JVC Announces Technology To Prevent Software Copying · · Score: 2

    The funniest part of it all is that these companies (JVC, in this case) are actually PAYING engineers and the like to implement these innovations. Haven't they learned that it's always been a bust, and that they're just wasting their time?

    The screenshots are pretty piss-poor, but I can still see that they're re-inventing the wheel.

    More fragmentation of the userbase is not what the linux desktop needs. I really don't have much else to say here, the screenshots leave me speechless -- but not in the good way, more like in a stupified way. I just ask, why??

    Don't get me wrong, this sounds like a great idea. But how can you seriously get all of this without spending over 8 years time? There's only so much you can pack in before extending the time until graduation else you lose important class time for engineering.

    Either that or you go in overkill method and give the students the worst four years of their life.

  22. Support? on Who is Using Tomcat or Jetty in Production? · · Score: 1, Insightful
    I'm not completely familiar with the software at hand, but when you are dealing with a corporation, they are often willing to pay money for support contracts or for an in-house support team.

    One thing execs don't like about "free" is, whose fault is it when it breaks? They need somebody to yell at, and don't ilke anything being their fault. So as long as you can get good support for when all hell breaks loose, you should have your ground covered.

  24. How about Classrooms/Lecture Halls on NYC Law Aims To Ban Cell Phones In Theatres · · Score: 2
    Universities should take this one step further and ban ringers in their classrooms and lecture halls as well. There is NOTHING more annoying to a professor than an annoying ass ring. Then you see the prick in question scrambling for his/her phone while the most annoying possible ring is blaring through the hall.

    This is especially true during midterms. I can't tell you how many times I've been in the middle of a hard problem with 110% concentration when someone's damned phone blew off. My one EE professor had it right - He warned the class the first day, and then the first time he heard a ring, he screamed "TURN IT OFF", and said that the next one to ring was his, no questions asked. Everybody was sure to turn theirs off in his class after that. You'd have to see the fire in his eyes to understand.

  25. Give him some booze on How To Travel With LCD Gaming Screen? · · Score: 2
    Dear GOD, I cannot believe I'm reading this.

    OK, overprotective dad, here's what you have to do: Buy your kid a bottle of liquor. Perhaps a bottle or two of 1L Blackhaus, for starters. It's good-tasting stuff that's great for your first alcoholic experience. Or maybe some Absolut and orange juice! Your son can then go into the hotel room, tell his buddies (I'm at least hoping he has aqcuaintances), and then they will bring some girls. Everyone has a fun, drunken time, and he learns what it's really supposed to be like away from a goddamned video game.

    This is what we did for Model UN tournaments, and we became the party club of the high school. Those were the days...

    Trust me, at 17, your son is not yet completely out of the running for a NORMAL SOCIAL LIFE. But time's running low, and you've got to encourage better things than this (and yes, having a few drinks with friends and girls is better, regardless of anyone's spoon-fed Americanized moral objections).
