Imagine a beowulf cluster of those!

Because fantasy football is Dungeons and Dragons for people who used to beat up people who played Dungeons and Dragons (e.g. the /. userbase)

Posting a comment to undue a bad mod. Sorry.

Bomb squads use spark gap transmitters to jam radio signals thus preventing remote detonation. I know it's true because I saw it on Burn Notice. :-)

I can't believe on /. of all sites I had to read this far into the comments to find someone making this point. This! This! Yes. Fine. Let them set up the pipes if they want. Let people subscribe to the service if they want. I, for one, wouldn't go anywhere near it. Governments in general (though probably less so at the local level) have proven themselves untrustworthy given access to the people's communications. Being the actual broker of those communications? No way!

"Their" women?

You don't ask "why are you so interested in those people" or "why are you so interested in that particular method of oppression".

"Their women"? Sheesh....

I'm really confused by this.

So, to be clear, you are saying that Illinois is in a much stronger position economically than Indiana or Wisconsin? I think if you're going to make that claim you probably need to provide some data that explains how it was arrived at. Having lived in IN all my life and worked in IL for over 15 years, I think the "real world" might actually disagree with you. As of a couple years ago when I left, IL was billions in the hole, had massive budget deficits, unfunded liabilities (read: pensions) with no hope of ever being paid for, infrastructure that was either falling apart or being sold off, a laundry list of contractors and vendors threatening to sue because the state couldn't pay for services rendered and massive population exodus. Indiana at the same time had a budget surplus, population growth (largely from people and businesses fleeing IL) and was making plans for serious infrastructure improvements. Even Gary was making a comeback. The only blip I can recall in IN economics was when the steel industry faltered and Bethlehem quit paying their taxes. That situation largely sorted itself out, though.

I can't speak specifically to the state of Wisconsin's economy since I can usually find local places to get cheese, but IL has been teetering on the brink of bankruptcy for years.

It's a reference to a Dr. Who episode in the most recent series wherein The Doctor theorizes that a creature may have a perfectly evolved ability to hide from all physical observation yet your subconcious knows it's there. Like the feeling one sometimes gets of being watched when in what appears to be an obviously empty room.

Sharks with frickin' laser beams!

So, you voted for "Cure my ills" or "Fight crime"?

It means just about everybody.

US code Title 10, Section 311:

In other words, just about everybody.

I did that many moons ago, actually. I wrote a perl sys v style rc that would run your regular sys V scripts, but if they were written in perl it would suck the code in and run it in an eval(). Saved shedloads of forks and execs and launching of new processes from all the commands in bash scripts and made the whole thing really fast. Also allowed a flag for "don't bother to wait for me. Just move on" that would fork before the eval to parallelize where useful.

Fun little project.

The 1% fly private jets, not commercial. Doubt this would affect them at all. Your first class envy is misplaced.

No. No we won't.
