is to videotaped while he's on the toilet seat eating rice balls and trying to remember the 130000th digit of pi. It's the shebang of all bad moments.
Actually, just being this person must be terrible. Our minds have so many things in them..trolls, flames, C++, pedantic logic, Prison Break, Dubya, pr0n.. this guy has one thing and one thing only in his head: Pi. He's reached, like, the limit of neurological "permanent" storage.
If he remembers to bruth his teeth at night, he automatically looses a couple hundred digits. If he realises he likes rice balls, it's 50 digits down the drain. Imagine living like that, a life where every thought can possibly disrupt your memory, destroying years of your life's efforts. Your brain geography is covered in PI. You wake up: PI. Work desk: PI. Local pub: PI. Bed-time: PI.
I think I'm going to write a song about how dying in prison and going to hell is better than PI.
Put another way, this would equal 50 full-time employees doing nothing but surfing online game and auction sites.
Wow. I've been in places where all 100 employees did nothing but that and porn, so they must have cost the company $4 billion, which is close to the GDP of the little country that company was in. I'm in awe of the power of laziness.
Meanwhile I suggest that those civil servants get their butts back in gear. It was you dept. that got online gambling banned, you clowns. This is not funny. How dare you waste my tax money? Isn't it enough that billions of dollars of MY tax money is going into cluster bombs that kill kids around the world, now I learn that the money is being wasted on the breaking of laws by the government execs who made them? I'm f*cking furious!
We, of the corporate world, can waste money all we like, because we only take money from customers when we produce. You lazy b*stards can't, because you take our money anyway. You have been warned.
Uh, I'm not really sure about this, but it's probably because the science agencies who spent billions of dollars and years of research on space technology are less likely to bullsh*t you about the nature of the universe than, say, the guys at McDonalds.
But yes of course, you have a valid point - Which is why I still believe the earth is flat, we're at the centre of the universe, and those bastards at NASA scammed us with that so called moon landing.
No they're not. The "home users" you're talking about will not make a purchase that entails $20 a month or it dies. The first few who buy it will warn the rest, and as networking activity requirement increases so will the security breaches, making this entire thing a joke.
Laymen like their computers simple and reliable. They don't want to worry about activation dates and ISP issues. SOA is fine, but it is not for everybody. What happens when the "home users" discover they can't write their essays on their brand-new laptop unless they have a connection?
It would have been significantly better use of their time to, say, have them go on speaking circuits at business ethics meetings,
Yes, very funny that. I'd go every time.
Utilitarian arguments for the usage of jail should take into account that there are other perspectives in the world. The achievement of justice, as defined by a constitution or religion is sometimes far more important than just oiling the wheels of society for everyone's greater "happines". The idea of jailing violent people only has some appeal because of the way it is related to governmental intervention in the western world today. Still, jail as a punishment has served often as a method of imposing shame, humiliation and social isolation on the criminal. For reasonable periods of time it makes sense, but when you get to life sentences things move out of perspective.
During a short period when we were supposed to modify the 2.4.X linux short term scheduler, we found functions that had no body, took no arguments, and were used as comments.
Come on. There are always extremely high levels of anti-American sentiment, at all times, in all seasons, including weekends.
Is it not enough that we have to put up with a government that likes to continously scare the living crap out of it's citizens from danger that doesn't exist, and hides from them danger that does? Now they want additional sources of omg-thyre-gonna-bomb-us ?
Thanks Dubya, but according to the foreign press sentiment, we should all be in bunkers now chewing on dry biscuits. And if human agents cannot predict criminal attacks on us then I highly doubt some AI ever will.
No. The lack of a troll mod was because they got the joke and you didn't. Depressing isn't it.

Whiteboard markers don't smell like piss! There are entire clubs dedicated to people who get high on whiteboard markers. Don't tell me you've never sniffed one before, y'old wanker. I know you have.
This whole "old-school blackboard thing" is a cover up for whiteboard marker junkies.
Don't worry, you can still spend the rest of the day on thepiratebay.org or similar fun places.
P.S: I don't want to confuse piracy advocates with stop-being-screwed-by-DRM advocates, but there are times where we must team up for the general public good. I don't fancy red meat that much, but I eat it alot just to piss off PETA. This is the same kind of situation, matey! Arrrrrrrgh!
You're quite wrong, government officials have better things to do than judge random people's interest in books.
If they genuinely suspect you for something serious then they will do what they can to find out, but you have nothing to worry about in that case if you are innocent. They problems arise when goernment invades your privacy without legal processing, and do things like listen to you talk to your wife on the phone. In that case we should be angry, and we are.
Very soon we will have microchips implanted in your brain with peer-to-peer capabilities, to inform you of who is calling before they call and to whisper the text of SMS messages in your head so you don't have to read them.
To answer your phone, you merely have to imagine answering it, at which point your chip will open the line and forward your thoughts to the gentleman on the other end.
Such preposterous premonitions against a man who, in the amplitude of his vocabular grandeur, effortlessly dwarves the likes of thy scurrillus vituperations. Of lowly men, thou surely are amongst the most menial in matters of this concern.

I think they're referring to the way he pwned that Fox anchor. If I headed the Fox network, it would sure as hell be a scandal in my books.
Good point. Maybe this has been slightly exaggerated then, and I don't have a reason to be so pissed at the govmint people after all.
to be hated by lots and lots of OSS people. First he will get hacked, then he will get hacked, then he will repent, and we will forgive him.

Lost customers, and plenty of hatemail.
This is a good week for America. Nasdaq is up, Barbra Streisand is back, and we've just discovered the Dutch are about as dumb as we are.

I understood most of those words, they just didn't come together into a coherent thought.
You're not new here, by any chance?
but setting up P2P between systems that are both using NAT is damn near impossible.
Well that's kinda funny, because I'm doing it now - took all of 10 min. It must be the easiest impossible thing you can do in your life.
