I won't correct the syllable count for you, but you need a season to make real haiku. Something like "in your summer hot ass" or "as a large spring penis".
So the Englishmen went the pond to buy themselves some keywords to use over tea and received the merchandise in a Kelly case - it takes a lot of money to buy keywords in such magnificent cases, I tell you. News indeed. I wonder if my rights online are part of their deal.
It was not a "bridge for sale" joke but a "journalist taking Slashdot's comments at face value" joke. Anyway you are right, I could have easily (and on topically) avoided the cliche by offering "SCO Linux licenses" instead of bridges...
I know it's an advertising publication, but some people read eWeek and expect some of the things in it to be true
I wonder who exactly are those people who expect some of it to be true. I have some nice bridges in various American cities for sale and we are also handling the pre-sale of some real state in the Moon and in Mars for Nasa. So if you know anyone who believes in articles whose main source of information are Slashdot comments, please ask them to give me a call.
Much deploring also. We all deplore this deplorable act. Keeping the fight against SCO in the high road, that's what we are doing. No cheering. No laughing. No smiling even.
You, there, stop jumping up and down. And remove the worm from the datacenter. Now. Master Bruce says absolutely no worms in the high road, so please...
See, your honour, this MAC address is not mine - come to think of it, it looks like Suzy's card MAC address, the bitch from Accounts Receivable who won't go out with me...
I am 192.168.0.23, and I have a transcript of my network log to prove it. But as we are a DHCP shop, I am not always 23. Sometimes I am 17. Other times I am 9. I have even been 2 once. But never 200.256.49.3. That would be the gateway and nobody uses it. Locked down in the server room. No access. Verbotten. Very verbotten.
Brazilan legal system is a little complicated. First instance federal judges have country-wide jurisdiction (I believe smoking is forbidden in all flights leaving Brazil still not by law but by a similar decision from a judge). They can be overruled by regional federal courts, which in turn can be overuled by a Superior Court of Justice, which is not yet the last instance - this can be overruled by the Supreme Court. Also, until some years ago the Supreme Court decisions were not binding, so first instance federal judges could still judge a similar case contrary to the upper instances judgement (which would be overruled eventually, making lawyers very rich in the process).
Yeah, a country used to ignoring and loathing "foreign devils", with dinasties lasting centuries, with a planning horizon of centuries, a closed society with traditions going back to when yours and mine ancestors could barely speak, will "flip" just because a bunch of Americans making, selling and buying coloured glass arrived at the beaches. Or because of very small bunch of people now sponsor some incoherent Western religion three times younger than theirs. Yeah. That will happen just after the Sun go nova...
This article is so ridiculous it hurts - I don't even use Macs, only Linux and Windows, but the sellout is so blatant it made me sick. It got me wondering how much money Redmond pays monthly for Mr. Ulanoff "consulting services". At least most of the MCJs have the decency to pretend neutrality.
The rest of the world couldn't care less if this or that DoD Cold War project, where millions upon millions of US tax dollars were dumped, turned out to be a good idea after all.
Can the US afford, at this point, to be left taliking with itself? Really? How would all the American companies exproting jobs, plants and projects talk to their slavas, I mean, contractors across the world? By phone? No, that is regulated by the same body discussing the Internet now...Are the US interested in an American only network? I don't think so - there is too much money to be made keeping the communication lines open.
So, get over it. The rest of the world does not give a flying fuck that American citizens paid for the American network (because they haven't paid for the infrastructure elsewhere). If a global network exists, there is nothing wrong that a global body controls it and not some company taken out of the White House's hat...
Are you out of your mind? These people used their newspapers and TVs to incite ethinic cleansing - to coordinate a genocide in detail, even broadcasting instructions to the troops doing the actual killings. How long do you think a radio or TV station would last in the United States after it started inviting people to kill their black or Jewish neighbours? Are this the people you are defending?
...for getting tabs and popup blocking in IE 6? It's not for me, I use Mozilla and haven't edited the config file since 1.1, I think, when Javascript control got into the main Options dialog.
I haven't seem a popup I didn't want to see since 0.9. Sometimes I use IE in someone else's computer and get amazed by how much junk their Web has. Mine is so clean and quiet. The only complain I could have is that sometimes it won't let me see a popup I want to see, but these are so few that I can gladly live with it.
Think about it: people who bought and sold the erroneously priced stock can undo their sells and buys. Now the people who bought from those first generation buyers must be allowed to undo also. In the second generation a new problem arrises: these people have no reason to undo nor do they have done anything wrong - you bought a car, paid $1000 instead of $10000 because the clerk at the store made a mistake and sold me the car for $5000: why should be forced to give you the car back when the store come to collect the rest of its money?. Now interact a little more - the future market works at a very fast pace, hundreds, thousands of trades may happen in a minute. Somewhere down the line things may get really messy, bith logistically and legally.
Who is your elected representative in the Pentagon (assuming you are American - if you are not, substitute for the closest matching geometric shape)? Who can you complain if war is not carried the way you want it to? Oh, wait, you don't have elected representation in the Pentagon, have you?
Now, slowly: who do the Generals in those hidden basements answer to? Guess, the same person the US ambassador to the UN answers to: an elected head of state.
And then you confuse matters of representation with the internal affairs of the represented. You may or may not like it, but the Chinese don't give a shit about representative democracy. The Russians are not far behind, the last decade or so being a rare exception in their history. I am not arguing which system is best, I just pointing that other nations may have different views and priorities about these matters. Anyone is free to found the United Friendly to Me Nations Organization (and many exist), but this disrupts one of UN's main objectives, being a neutral forum where all nations can discuss theirs and the world's problems.

Hope your ISP don't charge too much for the bandwidth (and the trouble)...

Is SCO finally dying? Will the two stories a day torture end in silent dismissal?
Hope your parents don't know you do things that get dissementated for trivial prices. They told you not to use drugs.
Anti we are not anti-IP. We are totally pro-IP. We are even pushing for version 6 of IP now.

It's a reference to Pink Floyd's Have a Cigar lyrics, "And by the way, which one is Pink?"

China will probably flip in about 20 years

Where can I download this Explorer of theirs? Does it runs on Linux? Does it have tabs and popup blocking?

Everybody knows each delegation, no matter how big, has only one vote, right?
The list above, in most cases, screams "travel opportunity" for poor country diplomats...
In principle they support the killing of anyone, anywhere, by anyone else.

given enough damage, it is not impossible for Nasdaq to consider voiding every deal since the glitch started...

I may be worse, he could actually know what Putty was and erase it because only an evil hacker would want to use these command line things.
