They had a password expiration policy here. After a year and a half my Windows password is "linux3". I don't log in very often.
My most secure password is NOT the network sysadmin password. It's my bank password.
It should be "GNU/Linux3". That makes it more secure, as it contains capital letters and a slash, and furthermore it keeps rms happy.

Finally, they thought of those who can't afford a real browser.
Wait, what? IE, Firefox, Opera, and Google Chrome -- the main browsers -- are all free as in beer, as is telnet/netcat, which is what "real programmers" would use.

You're right about "generalize" being spelt incorrectly because -ize is etymologically correct, but "colour" is a valid variant <sarcasm>even though it is mainly used in evil Communist Socialist countries like Canada</sarcasm>.@TwelveBaud said:
They also didn't like "colour", "generalise", or "Manichean guilt." Until I saw them in published texts, I thought they were wrong too, as I had been taught.You spelled "color" and "generalize" incorrectly.

Does not. Here I present the worlds smallest bug-free and self-replicating code (it outputs itself to stdout). not invented by myself btw (see ioccc)
Here it comes:
It does not compile with gcc. The ioccc entry just chmodded it executable in the Makefile. Plus I already mentioned /bin/true which could be implemented by a blank file.

All software contains bugsFTFY
What about the UNIX 'true', 'false', 'echo', and 'cat' programs? Actually useful and easily possible to write without bugs.

LIMBAUGH: In addition, they have reformatted the bill -- they've made it a PDF file when they posted it. Now, for those of you that don't use computers, basically what that means is that it cannot be keyword searched. A PDF file is essentially a picture of a page. And, so, you can read every page, but you cannot keyword search it. It's not a text file as legislation normally is as posted on these public websites. They don't want anybody knowing what's in this; they want it happening as fast as possible so nobody can know what's in it.
There are a lot of WTF PDFs which are scans of a printed page as an image, so someone might be confused, but he should have looked at the PDF and tried searching.

I don't understand why people bash IE, when in fact it's an invaluable tool. I mean how else would you download Firefox? :)
Command line:
a) netcat
b) wget
c) curl
d) ftp
Linux:
a) Order an Ubuntu CD via shipit and use it to install both Windows Firefox and Ubuntu.
b) Download Ubuntu ISO using IE and use it to install both Windows Firefox and Ubuntu.
c) Download any Linux distro that includes Firefox and install it
Getting a new PC:
a) Order Linux PC from Dell, etc. with Firefox pre-installed
b) Get a Mac and then use Safari to download Firefox
Misc.:
a) Get binary from another PC, copy using flash drive, CD-R
b) IP over avian carrier
c) Print source code from other PC which has firefox, scan it in, compile it
d) Print hex dump from other PC with firefox, scan it, unhex.

Now my bank insists on sending me big ass-e-mails as advertising, and one of the low fare airlines insists on sending me offers that I can't read on my blackberry, as I need "Javascript" enabled.
Wow, IP over anus?
