Slashdot videos: Now with more Slashdot!

Once you hit -10 you instantly die. Same with meta voting on driving. Every car has a heads-up display and you can instantly vote other drivers up or down. At -10 your car turns off. PS, I patented both of those already.

I was right there with you stabbing my wirewrap tool into the desk yelling "JUST WORK!!!"

Isn't "fell off the back of a truck" code for stolen? I'm sure it's the same for shipping.

Isn't American Airlines rolling out WiFi in some of there planes? I can't turn on my Gameboy but the operator can run their own wireless network? On the other hand is the price for me bring righteous is I have to pay with my life I'll just turn my shit off.

Now I'm happy I have only 1 friend and he never calls me.

It's just playground-rules. A few of the strongest egos call the shots, and the mob follows. Anyone can be anon and nobody can be anon both at the same time. No-org is just an attempt to stay out of trouble. It's just semantics and it won't keep the guilty out of trouble.

Agreed completely. Denying IT access and expecting to be allowed a rogue server on a corporate network is completely ridiculous. When this machine gets hacked or goes ape-shit and floods the network intentionally or unintentionally guess who is going to catch the flack for allowing it. Regarding hobbyist vs professionals: It's not about who has more technical experience but the professionals know corp policies and how the shit will hit the fan.

Just say no to 3D. Do viewers really want 3D or are movie companies pushing it to make bank. I think we all know.

Why not? We let drunks, non-licensed, non-insured, aggressive, douchbags, etc drive. I'd rather have a robot control their car instead of them.

Embargo on. I'm in the market to buy a laptop for my son's graduation gift. Samsung just removed them self from my list.

Probably not even encrypted but just gibberish. FBI wastes 100000000000000000000000000000 man-hours trying to decrypt it. Please send the FBI to change the oil on my car. Money better spent.

It works fine with load balancing if the SSL is terminated at the load balancer so the data can be read. i.e. required for cookie persistence... plus all sots of other fun stuff.

I don't see anything wrong with it in general, but how can it be the same for a 13 y/o (or worse a 13 y/o girl), and a 35 y/o married man with 4 kids? That's just ridiculous. I know games have ratings but doesn't magically make the understanding equal.

Sponge Bob will love this.

According to Glen the world has only had 1 year before self destruction for the past 5+ years. No news here.
