I already knew the answer, but I scrolled down to see if there was a stupid statement at the bottom. Predictably, there was.

This is the best approximation for what you were looking for that I can find. I hope you find it interesting reading.

You're not getting it. You've assumed that you know the goals of the majority of the open source movement, which I don't think you do. Those may well be YOUR goals in open source, but they aren't...

sk8ndestroy,

You said there were no benefits to smoking. I was just being the nitpicker that I am :)

Dave,

Yes, second hand smoke is bad.
No, I do not agree with you on 'supply and demand' for whether it should be allowed. It's downright harmful, and nonsmoking sections are never fully clear...

You still don't understand. What I'm saying is that it HAS accomplished its goal. There is no problem of 'not accomplishing much'. Do you know what I am trying to say now?

Linux is not windows. Most Linux users are not trying to replace all Windows boxes. We have our freedom, and are better off for it. So Josh, it does not matter that Linux will not replace Windows....

Ugh, what a moron.

Yeah, you guys really are not being professional. Tell him it's gone too far and you're done. If he does not fix your computer's problems, report him.

Congratulations!

I play Literati with friends from IRC on yahoo games sometimes. Another fun one is IRC trivia. I also wrote a chessbot for IRC for a class project so I could play chess with my IRC friends (many of...

I think a regular scheduled talk would be nice... maybe you could specify a topic ahead of time. I can see that what you have done so far has improved traffic to the IRC network - we saw more chat...

How sad... the www.isnoop.net/gmail/ gmail invite spooler has been taken down at Google's request.

axieaxie: what?

Quite an interesting question. If done over SSL (and we're assuming that the client is VERY SURE of the certificate authority or has personally checked the fingerprint of the cert), the client knows...

Are you talking about authentication or data security here?

That's only true if dedicated (and trusted) hardware is available to verify using public/private key signing that the fingerprint data is current (signing a timestamp provided by the...

Why are you posting that scam in here? Thanks, but no thanks.

Is it just me or are you posting copyrighted content?

49 here, PM if you want one.

Uh... I don't think that makes sense unless you change it to "70% of the earth's frozen water". The site was cool though, I stacked some coins once but nothing that impressive.

At last, Microsoft is doing something right.

Hm... user with one post posting spam. Let me see what google finds......

Quite interesting. However much I dislike MS, they have a valid case here. He's not selling to someone at his school, so it does not fall under the license.

There is one thing that's bothered me - people have this misconception that any website can will be able to directly accept fingerprint as a password. However, this has the same weakness that normal...

I love the new look too. On top of looking nice, it's easier to navigate and it cleaned up the cluttered look the forums had.

6 invites are burning a hole in my pocket. Anyone?

Yeah, I'm really only mildly amused - as I said before. I wouldn't support this happening again.

And hope the vulnerabilities are fixed fast...

I confirm this hack sighting - saw it on the SCO site this morning myself. I must say I'm mildly amused...

I never thought there would be a draft - and now I'm sure there won't be. We don't need one.

I think you've said everything that I would say, so I will add nothing.

No, but I hope to get it soon.

You never really know... :confused:

Wow, that was pretty fast. I don't see why anyone would want a webmail-only account anyway - POP3 is so much better. Then again, if someone gave me a gmail invite, I'd jump at the chance to have a...
