Remember WordPerfect? Hell, I'm still using it. I still have an old Toshiba laptop that runs FreeDos and WordPerfect v5.1
Now, get off my lawn you whippersnappers while me and Bill Gates reminisce about the old days
Yes... Pouring cold water on the kindle would probably be bad for it. Well... I guess not distilled cold water, but cold water from the Amazon river would definitely kill it. The piranhas would also munch on your fingers.
Highly unlikely, BUT... It could also be referring to the mother of some guy who is named "Pla"
Pla's Ma
Look, this is Slashdot. This is not reddit. We do not care what they have to say. We do not care what some 17-year-old pre-college hipsters think about this topic. If we wanted inane, shit-ridden discussion, we'd be over over at reddit instead. But we're not there, because that's not what we want. So please don't bring such utter crap over here. Thank you, and good night.

I think you are mistaken. HP is getting out of the PC business. I think their networking products will stick around, along with their large measurement and instrumentation business.
although I do worry about their recent move to distance themselves from the "Procurve" brand name... making everything "HP Networks"
I guess I should check out their annual report and see how much profit their networking division makes.
Geesh.... the term "underground river" evokes an image of a continuous flow of only water perhaps going through a long cave or something... not water travelling through rock, also known as an "Aquifer"

You missed the part where it was all an elaborate scheme to get you to suck up several-day-old urine in a straw.
BINGO! You win.
I, however, fail, because I meant to submit it as Anonymous Coward... oh well....
and finally.... to develop it... and remember, this only works on April 1st... is to use a concentrated Plutonium solution wiped over the surface with an organic cloth like cotton or rabbit skin
An old Roman version of invisible ink can be made in your own home. You need to collect your urine for several days and keep it uncovered in the sun so that it becomes more concentrated. keep it inside, like on your kitchen counter so it doesn't become contaminated with windblow stuff. after several days, it will become a dark amber color... this is what you want... for each gallon of urine, add two teaspoons of vinegar, one teaspoon of green food coloring (we're using a oxidized copper ion here), and finally, a half-cup of corn starch... mix it all together with your hands and dip a straw into it and suck it up into the straw....then start writing with it.
when it dries you won't be able to see it.
my subsequent post will tell you how to "develop" it so your friends CAN see it.
So you can run STABLE on both a TOPS-20 *AND* an 80286!!!
I would so mod you up if I had mod points!
I remember the big jump from DOS 1.0 to 2.0... They added subdirectories (folders)! what a concept.
I still occasionally boot up machines with MSDOS v6.22
