That's very odd. I have my own Smoothwall router attached to the modem without problems. I don't have any Macs, but the Smoothwall is ofc a kind of Linux and I have other Linux boxes attached. Besides, if it blocked non-Windows users, surely the PS3 wouldn't work either?
I rank that one up with "Intel and AMD piss on each other's chips" "Wife auction goes titsup" and the one about Alcatel laying off loads of people: "Sack Ray Blur"
"The bomb is being decommissioned in a National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) facility in Amarillo, Texas – but very, very carefully, because most of the original designers are dead and plans for the device could be incomplete."
Sounds like most people will be singing "Is the way OUT of Amarillo?"
In string theory, gravity is not confined to a single universe but is allowed to range through the 'bulk' between universes. The past and the future are special cases of multiple universes, and there is a range of universes encompassing every possibility that has come out of quantum results in the past. As time goes on, you would expect the gravitational effect of 'dark matter' (gravity from other universes) to increase as the number of resulting universes increases. This should be falsifiable.
Dark Matter always seemed like a modern phlogiston to me. There's no denying that the effect is real, but whether the interpretation of the cause is correct...
It struck me whilst reading about M-theory that whilst most strings that form elementary particles are stuck to their "home brane" (think 'Flatland'), gravity is free to wander between branes. What we refer to as dark matter might be the interference effects of gravity caused by the masses on parallel branes. So a new quantum theory of gravity (which we don't have yet anyway) instead of exotic new "stuff"...

Once upon a time...
"You swapped the cow for a handful of WHAT?"
Is anyone else...
...thinking of The Truman Show?
I would like to donate my haircut coupons to Boris Johnson.
Or as Ted Heath put it...
Interviewer: "Is it true you said 'Rejoice, rejoice' when you heard she had resigned?"
Ted Heath: "Actually, I think I said it three times"
Re: Latex...
Are you Randall Munroe in disguise?
Has no one noticed...?
In the first picture, the TV is coming out of the *head* of the bed...

Re: @Adze Where Did He Go?
I thought Onan's sin was *refusing* to sleep with his (dead) brother's wife - which is why he spilled his seed as a "dirty protest"...
Who will play Ballmer?
John Goodman, of course.
Heh
Like the random Godley and Creme reference, although of course that was New York and not Australia...
Space:1999 had it also...

One question
....Does Pure Music pay artists more than Spotify's 0.000000001p per play?*
*there may be too many noughts here
And in other Gartner news...
hundreds of thousands of dollars are made by "analysts" who never get called on their "predictions".
Question:
What's the first thing you do if you start to lose your balance? Answer: wave your arms around to try to steady yourself...Are you Doctor Who?
The company was only founded in 2002 and wasn't launched until 2003...
7% of Murdoch, eh?
why didn't he just buy the rest and close it down?
Arrrgh
CIVILISATION IS OFFICIALLY OVER
What the fuck is he wearing?
That is all. Thank you.
In that case...
You'll not want to find out what happened to most of "Not Only But Also"...
That subhead is absolutely brilliant.

TBH...
The cosmos could do with a bit of a regeneration.
I love the phrase...
"improved the system too much"
Heh

This is my thought also.

Was Kelvin Mackenzie behind this?
I'm guessing that if you have to ask, you can't afford it.
Dark Matter

Wi-fi? Pah! Ethernet!
This is why using wireless at home is the invention of the devil.
I believe it was Quentin Crisp whilst being gay-bashed: "Why don't you fuck off back home before they find out you're queer?"
She'll get so enormous...
...She'll be known as "Beyonce Castle"...

I'm still not drinking their beer.
Anyone who uses this...
...deserves all they get...
Doesn't seem that far off to me...
Didn't know Peaches was a Freemason though :-)
First *and* largest?
Well, quite.
Run for your lives!
It's Kevin Warwick!
I thought...
...it was Steve Jobs' Dad.
John Lithgow
"Laugh while you can, monkey boy!"
I thought...
that they put emetics into these things precisely for this reason?
Hands off that hamster!!!!!
"Bernard, float over here so I can punch yew"
I think he meant "lucky" instead of "shocking"
as a policeman, I mean.
I predict...
...that these predictions will be exactly as accurate as all other predictions about the future that these companies make.
Indeed...

"sunsetting" is not a real word.
That is all, thank you.
This plugin...
if someone was installing it every four seconds, surely there's something wrong with it?
In other news...
