They don't undersrand how email works. This is an empty gesture.

Original story is an IAMA on Reddit

Bah, I was using red and neon green on black bacground (with twinkling stars) on Geocities before it was cool. I think my Yellow and Black "Under Construction" ribbon consumed someones 14" CRT energy thou.

...turns out there is a not insignificant difference

Very crafty! I couldn't decipher that double-negative sentence fragment, so I had to actually read the article to come into some kind of conclusion myself!

/facepalm

The amount of fuck in just this single slashdot thread offends my eyes. I browsed reddit couple of years ago daily, but it seems the glory days are over.

Unless GoodNewsJimDotCom is trolling, slashdot needs an enema.

Replying to this specific reply because I am impressed by the amount of idiocy one can contain in four words of less than four letters each.

Just point your DNS to 8.8.8.8

Fucking apple. Why can't they just join Open Mobile Alliance like everyone else and share the patents. In return they would get access to the whole pool of patents from the other companies.

I went straight to the Market to download the browser for my Android. Fired it up... now I'm stuck at "Request sent. Waiting for response..."

I suspect that every other T-Mobile Android user on Slashdot is doing the same, and the poor guy's SMS gateway is now a smoldering heap of slag.

Interestingly, the Market reported that the download count was "10+". Obviously, there's some latency there...

It's also explicitly noted in the app's Options:

Confirm HTTPS Requests (checked by default)

Prompt for confirmation before sending HTTPS requests (recommended as HTTPS requests sent through Smozzy are not secure)

So I guess you want to forget about any good parties you went to?

I've always heard that the best parties ARE the ones you can't quite remember clearly...

This is like the only magazine I would find interesting when browsing for something to read on a train trip.
I used to be a subscriber, but it got a bit expensive with shipping to Finland. I will dearly miss this magazine and will now go and encase my hard copies in lucite.

I think for my first Android software project I'm going to come up with a text message like program that uses your data plan. I could make a killing on something like that if it took off. Although I'll probably get my ass sued off by patent trolls so I may not bother.

Right after you build your time machine to go back in time 4 years before the 100+ other people already made apps that do just that for Android / iOS.

Yeah, but he'll still have a niche, in the 45 minutes between when his app hits the Market and when the process server brings the patent lawsuit papers.

punters?

I was expecting -- nay -- hoping to see the onion news logo in the video.
