Interesting seeing another poster from Cincinnati. I always felt, after travelling around the country some, that we have serious luxury in our home town, when it comes to merging and on ramps. It's amazing how long they were! I live out east, just north of Savannah, GA now. I miss our long on ramps... And I hate traffic circles. Not because I cannot use them, but it seems like no tourist here can.

This little thread just brought me back. Thank you.

You know, I just realized that the modding here is insufficient. This, this post, right here, needs (Score:5 Awesome).

I laughed a lot, thank you.

I seriously wish I had mod points right now, this made my night.

And move SSH off of the default port. It's amazing how much that cuts down on automated hacking attempts. It goes from a constant, 24 hour thing to... well, when I did it a year ago, I've seen perhaps 2 attempts made since.

I've had sea urchin. Trust me, I will never think of it as a pet... But damn if that wasn't the single most disgusting thing I have EVER put into my mouth. Oh my god, I still shudder.

Depends on when you buy it in the bundle's lifecycle, too. I know the average for the last Bundle I bought (before this one) was like 4 or 5 when I purchased it. I was glad to drop 10 bucks on it at the time. This one? I had Uplink already, on disk. I'll GLADLY buy it again, get all the other things, and so on. And I got source code? Well freaking awesome. I'd say these Bundles are awesome. They're cheap enough I don't even blink, and they quite often offer much more than one would expect.

I got the one with Baird, Revenge of the Titans, etc in it before this. Just a tonne of fun. I don't play the games every day, but they scratch an itch when I feel like toying with them.

Most people I know also contain a combination of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen too.

THAT would be realistic!

It becomes debatable whether "Facebook" can be classified as something productive, however... but I would agree with you. I cannot see how sitting, staring at a blank computer monitor is a good control. Perhaps browsing normal websites not pertaining to oneself, or reading email, would be a better control. You know. NORMAL activities.

He's pointing out how people misuse the phrase. I've seen people write out "for all intensive purposes" when people mean "for all intents and purposes". It's what happens when folks hear something, don't quite comprehend it, then decide they've got to use it, too.

Definitely. That's.. one epic jeans story. Truly epic and amazing. This needs to be archived somewhere. Thank you, Cajun Hell.

I, for one, welcome our new giant consumable insect overlords!

Thank you Skippus, for stating so clearly what I'd intended to.

Funny. News for Nerds.

When a rather large provider like this is shut down, I'm sure many nerds care, as they might actually be using their services. I don't, and I find this whole thing interesting, at the very least.

You have some kind of case against them, it looks like. Bad experience? Did they touch your dolly someplace bad? Chill out. You don't like it, move on.
