Once every 100 emails? That would make it easy to spot! Once per spam run is virtually impossible to spot. Or just have lots of verification accounts in the list.
An 80-connector cable is used to enable ATA-66 and over, with a 40-connector cable you're limited to ATA-33. It has nothing to do with the number of devices on the bus.

So, will the next comment you write have better grammar, or will you discover more about grammar yourself? Don't worry, I don't think this spoils the comment itself;-)
So Halo is actually a version of Ringworld localized for the USA? (Well, at least they got to use that as an excuse to get rid of some of the worst lines;-) )
Make it pop up a dialog box with a form where the user can enter his name, address, telephone number to receive a free DVD or something.
Then call him to verify that information, and when it is verified, tell him that you're calling the police if he doesn't return your computer immediately.
Just turn the fencer's greed against himself;-)

If you drink 100 cups of coffee in one day, you'll get "bullet time" like effects, time will seem to slow down, while you move as fast as ever, so you can easily save everyone from the fire.
"Your system has too many registry keys. I'll remove some, and on the next reboot, your system will either be healthy, or dead! But the important thing is, we'll know!"
Very funny, but in practice, it's not feasible, since you'd have to know in advance which emails are safe to click on in the list.
But that such a ridiculous solution actually gets suggested, it is on the level of MS' recommendation that IE users type in every URL they want to visit!

Wow, looks like the ACs are copying not just one post in this thread!
I already did.
Painstakingly drawn before a live audience!

How are people who buy a cheap Linux-based router device supposed to keep it safe?
I think he's busy nailing his 50 patches to the door of the Cathedral right now.
No, by doubling the number of wires, the noise gets reduced so the cable can run at ATA-66 and up.
I remember there being a Clipper Chip card in Steve Jackson's Illuminati card game. Does this mean our CPUs are spying on us? ;-)
Yeah, and the Mac crowd is using BSD too! They're so dying!

Why spend $20 on a popup killer if you can download Mozilla for free? Seriously, I don't get it.
I'd choose Slurm any day of the year.

Maybe the awfulness didn't occur to you because you were even more juvenile at the time ;-)

(I haven't read the book, but I'm familiar with the concept of a ringworld, and I'd like to stay unfamiliar with the concept of awful sex scenes
If they did that, they'd be in blatant violation of copyright laws, and would risk to be kicked out of the WTO. They're not that stupid, stupid.
Q: Who do you trust more, Google or Microsoft?

You should read Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom by Cory Doctorow.
