There were possible WMD in the torrents that were also funding suspicious terrorist elements via torrents. Those internet thingy pipes are verwy verwy dangerous.

Yo they need good ole Jack Burton to come the rescue if thats the case. Maybe he can find Egg Shen as well to tag along.

Jesus classified ?

I'm still laughing. But all of those Ebolians are pissed that someone would call them poor and who would use P4 for bathroom tile. Please......

Either the effects of insomnia are finally sending me over the edge or this is my favorite ./ thread ever. Besides has anyone ever seen a Chuck Norris round house. No because you can't.

Music in our recent past has been pumped to us not by musicians but producers and media moguls dripping in money. These fat cats got rich along with the artists and the public was inundated with thumping noise and flash. Give me substance and something truly worth cherishing. I have always pondered why musicians are paid these enormous sums of money and become god like for playing music. I'd be happy to see the age of the rock star evaporate.

I new there was a reason I viewed slashdot. It's not because I understand half the geek speak it's because I think like a slashdot'r. I've always thought that Bono was to self impressed and righteous floater...

Forum is down at this moment. hmmmmm. Could it be retaliation?

I find using man entertaining. Blindly typing in commands found in a man page to fit a useful result is so much fun. You should see some of my early attempts at encoding video using mencoder. Or there was the time I bricked my sound system working after pulse audio fubar'd. Good times, good times.

I thought IBM has switched but not all at once. Seems I read that they are switching as need be and keeping Windows systems for specific tasks. Lets say they are skipping instaed of jumping.

happened to me this morning and I called NY Times immediately. Got screenshots and saved the .exe for kicks Warned friends to stay away after that. The executable didn't seem to include a payload though, dummy file. http://s559.photobucket.com/albums/ss36/MooPii/PAV_driveby/?albumview=slideshow

Have you ever tried to get the average user to install XP or Vista. Can you say disaster. With most Linux distros the install is considerably easier and finished. There is no need to install a fistful of third party drivers and applications to finish the deal. Recently tried to help a friend over the phone install on an old HP. Got the OS on but getting the drivers loaded was a complete failure.

I'll be 57 when I retire from my current position and then plan to return to school and get my CS degree. Just for fun, you know .

I'm also trying this with someone at work but with a little twist. I changed the session to fluxbox and edited the menu to only the basic and simplest of applications. With each menu item is a description of the app,( Pidgin Instant Messaging , Brasero CD Burning ). Haven't had much feedback but this may be an indication that all is well and easily understood. At least this is what I'm hoping for.
