We are spread all over Phoenix

The Marvel character?

I've never understood the need to market drugs either. The commercials always go, "Ask your doctor about [insert drug name]", as though when you ask them about it, they'll say, "Oh yeah, I forgot about that one!" That's not how it works. The doctor prescribes what will work for you for your specific case, assuming that they're not being paid be pharmaceutical companies to do otherwise.

You could probably write a custom stylesheet to get rid of the #slashboxes column or whatever is creating the whitespace and maybe make the font smaller.

Just out of curiosity, what WM and browser are you using?

Yeah, but for(;;) loops forever, whereas while(1) only loops while 1 is true. It's completely different! What if 1 becomes false?!

You put up with all that shit on the page? My front page looks like this.

Okay... but this court case was meant to determine whether violating a website's ToS constitutes a crime under the CFAA—not whether the right to free speech is guaranteed on the Web. I'm all for her going to jail for other things, but not for violating a website's ToS. This is a win for everybody.

Don't worry; the Internation Olympic Committee is sending nature a cease and desist letter at this very moment.

As long as the meaning the speaker intended is imparted to the listener, they served their purpose.

That's the problem. When a word (like "hacker") has different usages and definitions to different people and can be interpreted in various ways, the meaning is not conveyed properly.

I just bought a bunch of 10 month CDs from my credit union

Doesn't AOL give out 10-month CDs for free?

What the hell is "I Ay" anyway? When you (not you, but in general) use pronunciation respelling, unless everybody is using the same exact method, nobody knows what your phonetic symbols represent. To me, "I Ay" looks like it'd be /i aI/ in X-SAMPA.

I'm not gonna trash the grammar in your post because I don't notice bad grammar unless it's obviously wrong or gets in the way of the meaning of the post, but there's nothing wrong with split infinitives. It's a nonexistant rule that English teachers—and the people they tell it to—spread.

The real question: why is anybody on Slashdot using these malware lists?

Using something like this means you're sending every URL you visit to Google/Microsoft. Why would anybody here be for that in the first place?

I've been pissed off by that too, but there may be technical reasons for doing so. For example, some browsers prefetch links, and there could potentially be an exploit there.

Going along with the Latin duo-, the prefix would be sexa-, not hexa-.

If you can remember your passwords, you're doing something wrong.

Just set up a master password with Firefox and get some auto-login addon like Secure Login or use a program like KeePass or Password Safe.
