Anyone care to sign him up for snailmail spam?

Right, well, he frequently used to post on YNOT News - an adult webmaster information board.

Doesn't mean he was one, of course. He definitely used to be 'chief operating officer' of Infonent.com, Inc. His current fax is (408)979-7969... and an example of his current work is here.

Of course, he also gets mentioned in Sex Tracker press releases. He claims to be an 'anti-porn advocate', which is interesting, given the work he does protecting the valuable intellectual property of Cinnamonbunz, 'the largest collection of sexy, erotic models!' and Suze Randall the erotic photographer.

I wondered if this had anything to do with him (if it does, he's got some nerve 'I hope you don't mind me taking a graphic from your homepage!') particularly given the reference to driving and the Skyline Blvd. address again. He works for an erotic photographer, amongst others.

Let's see what else; if that is him, he has a web page on AOL of all places
. Plugging that new information into Google we also get maki177@aol.com as a potential address; if you search Google for maki177, you discover 'makiboy' is an alias apparently used by whichever Mark Ishikawa this one is, and taking this chain of improbability to its logical conclusion we discover makiboy@hotmail.com, NYC Jock/Ballet Sissy, and, last but not least, In Search Of... Men Seeking Men. The last includes the interesting blurb, "would like to hear from or meet other trim, athletic guys, 18 - 30s, who enjoy footed nylon or lycra tights. Shiny lycra is best, but nylon is okay too, as long as the tights are footed."

Oh, and he lies to his ballet-loving pals about his age :-)

Hey, makiboy, it's all publicly available information. Now you see why people don't go snooping - they might come to the wrong conclusion - if this is wrong?

Answers on a postcard please to:

"We lurve those tights!",
19020 Skyline Blvd.
Los Gatos, CA 95033

The small print: Half of this information is speculative, uncertain, and totally devoid of context. Don't think of it as fact. But it's a similar style to the information he'll use to report you to the cops - therefore, I would consider it to be poetic justice of a sort.

Wow. I feel like we should do something really nice for such a great guy... I know! How about we give him 1025 hours FREE from AOL? You can go here to send him a free cd. ::evil grin::

What happened last time? Well, Boston just had a huge flap over whether to conduct classes in Spanish. The answer? None yet but here's more background. And ebonics. Everybody remember ebonics?

Not only is the question evolving, but so is the answer. We recognise that not everyone speaks- or writes- the same language. But people are bilingual without meaning to be. How many people have included an HTML tag in a document? Raise your hands. Be honest. How many people have tried to use tags in a limited-to-plain-text format? Because that's what school english is: it's no smileys, no phone text, use the language and get graded on how well you do with it. No shortcuts, no abbreviations, no shorthand notes. (Remember shorthand?)

How many people can go from writing a full document in HTML to having a verbal conversation in regular speech?

We are already doing it, folks. And we should require of the kids that they live up to the standard: don't mix codes unless they're compatible. Is school english the same as street english? NO! Do we sound different when we call home than when we answer the phone at work? Yes, if we're in an old-school business environment- and if we do, we frequently get recognised for it, no matter what our middle managers can't spell. What's happening is that excellence is having an even greater field for visibility: the more they can't spell or speak in one coherent language at a time, the more those of us who are multilingual and fluent in our many fields look great by comparison.

YES. Grade them accroding to what's required. And acknowledge that there are places where this is acceptable, and that if they don't even know what they're writing, they aren't paying enough attention. They need to know what language they're using, and they need to know how to keep their codes clean. (by the way, this coment is being written by someone whose code is awful, and i'm having to clean it up, too.)

And here is an article to really bend your brain over just how much argument has existed just within the 'what's plain english?' bracket over the years.

For the record, i found a way to keep my Handheld/PDA graffiti out of my handwriting. I use my left hand for their writing system, and my right for regular script. This would probably be more difficult for someone who isn't ambidextrous, but with a little practice works just fine. Picked up the tip from a neuropsych buddy with whom I had a long debate over brain centers and speech.

Dirct link to the high rez quicktime is here.

Now, about that 'fight' scene... so that's a "Hong Kong Spin," huh? Never knew that little tidbit. It sure looks like something I've seen in a dozen other movies. Perhaps it's an 'action move' that's (comparatively) easy to teach/perform/film? Best "bang for the filming buck?"

If they use "bullet time" in a Harry Potter movie, what'll they call it? ("Wizard Time?") What things happen so fast they'd need it? (I started to think "no guns in the Harry Potter universe" -- I keep forgetting the setting is present-day.)

"I defy anyone to tell me with a straight face that Harry Potter has not been Hollywoodicized, when you see a fricking HONG KONG SPIN IN THE TRAILER."

My wife thinks it'll be during the "Duelling" bit.

Yeah, sounds an awful lot like this, which everyone has been ignoring, most notably AOL.

. . . all of those socks that everyone's been losing in the dryer. The aliens have been stealing them for years!

Uh, the original Star Trek series perhaps? Canned after 2 seasons, but given a third after a huge letter-writing campaign. Don't you know your geek history boy? :)

Sorry, but napster was created at Northeastern University in Boston...

Upon seeing the article, I went in search of the earliest gecko based broswer. I found Netscape 4.08 (running 32 bit, but there is a 16-bit version). Slashdot loads fine. Which is great!!

On the other hand, AOL gives me a connection reset before it loads the entire page. M$ site gives me a small unreadable font. Interesting things happen when running an old broswer.

Would you please explain to me why we should be thankful to a country who sat on their ass in two world wars until either they were attacked (Pearl Harbour, Dec 7 1941. 2 years after the war started) or some of their people were killed (Lusitania, May 1, 1915. 1 year after the war started) when my country was one of the first to go and fight.

In the second world war. Of a population of approx 7 million, 1 million men and women joined up and serve their country in the war. Can America claim a similar percentage?

Australia has never shirked from doing it's duty to help preserve world peace.

Australia has never attacked anyone... Can the same be said of America.

Australia has never used it's influence to topple a government to put a corrupt dictator on the seat of power, and then try and knock him off again after he takes the money and turns against you.

I really feel for the people who died in the towers and I honestly think that they would be ashamed of the US government for abusing their death's in a powerplay to try and gain a foothold in the Middle East oil fields. Which Middle East country will be the next one to harbour terrorists, Iran? Syria? Lebennon? Saudi Arabia where Bin Ladin comes from?

Or do we all have to start speaking with an American accent (to counter the german and japanese accents we would be speaking with now) because a corrupt small minded (man who is dominated by his father and the arms manufacturers and texas oil men who contributed to his campaign) wants to extend America's peace all over the world?

Australia didnt fight in two world wars to stop dictators and tyrants just to let another one push the buttons of the world. If there is an attack today on 9/11 or close around it. Look for the bush administration's hand in it. How to justify an attack on another country... lets set them up... Gee... Hitler did that with Poland and then with Russia, so it has been tried before and it failed... I have a lot of American friends who read this website. I hope that they are ashamed of what their government is doing to propagate war instead of peace.

And one last thing... If you had the strength of your convictions that your forefathers had, you would have posted your nick and email address up there so you could be flamed properly instead of hiding behind the Anonymous Coward tag like the gutless coward that you obviously are... I am properly going to be modded down to hell because of this and I will lose karma for it... But hey, learn a few things about the rest of the world before poking your useless head out of your shell again...

> The leading cause of death on the planet today is good ol' malaria. Mosquito control with DDT could solve that problem - and no, it wouldn't require spraying massive amounts of tens of millions of pounds on food crops, just a few hundred thousand pounds a year.

> "B-b-b-ut DDT is bad! The enviros said so!" - really? The evidence [slashdot.org] for that is highly questionable.

> DDT also help with another up-and-coming [foxnews.com] disease, too.

Remember that DDT was originally thought to be this amazing wonder product, that killed mosquitos but caused no long term environmental damage. IIRC, the inventors won a Nobel Prize for it.

However, the main problem with DDT was the buildup of the chemical in top-of-the-food-web animals, especially birds. The problem was not the birds themselves, but the eggs. I remember lots of pictures of eggs with paper-thin shells. The birds would sit on them in their normal nesting behavior, and the weight of the bird would break the shell.

The whooping crane and California condor were down to a few mating pairs. The bald eagle was severely threatened. Other large birds of prey also suffered with DDT. Though your Fox source will deny it, there is plenty of evidence about this, one link being this one.

Now that being said, it's possible that small, limited uses of DDT might be appropriate in emergencies. However, we cannot go back to the indiscrimate use that was prevalent in the '50's.
Not unless we want to start killing the big birds again.

Please, get your science from sources other than Faux News and the Cato Institute, OK?

What percent of AOL users use something other than an MS operating system?

I don't know, but there are plenty of devices that run AOL clients without running Windows: AOL Mobile Communicator, AOLTV, Instant AOL for Internet terminals, AOL for PDAs, AOL by land phone and by mobile phone, etc. How many of those are used by Mac users rather than Windows users is anybody's guess (unless you work in AOL marketing).

That being said, I have to admit that I don't "get" most "post-modern" art either, and suspect that most of it is pretensious crap. But I understand enough to know I'm too ignorant of the ideas involved to really have a useful opinion.

Sci-Fi cancells Farscape (MLP)
By yanisa

Sci-Fi network shocks viewers: Farscape, its flagship series, has been cancelled.

Fanbase reacts; join them!

-

In a surprise chat yesterday night, David Kemper, Richard Manning and Ben Browder announced Sci-Fi network's decision to cancel Farscape, critically acclaimed and much beloved SF series, now in its fourth season.

Although Sci-Fi has previously contracted for two more seasons of Farscape, they have now excercised an out-clause. This was made known to the creators and cast only after they have finished filming the last episode of Season 4, which means that they have had no chance of even finishing the story. Farscape will thus end with a cliffhanger and unfinished story threads.

Needles to say, the fanbase is in an uproar and the cast is shocked.

And not suprisingly, Dilbert has seen it coming.

If you like Farscape and would like to see it go on, add your voice to the enraged masses.

The one about the man who goes to a psychologist and says "Doc, My brother thinks he's a chicken." The Doctor says, Bring him him, I will cure him." The guy says, "I can't, we need the eggs."

I dunno. Look at the screenshots. Fucking creepy. Moonwalker has to be a product of Michael Jackson's deranged imagination.

I mean, c'mon. Your weapons are magic sprinkles and crotch-grabs? And you run around looking for little kids tied up? And there's giant robots with five-foot metal cocks?

Under "God, I love MAME" - 10 Dec 2000", and I quote...

No, I'm not, repeat, not, kidding. Not even about the "children in bondage" part - the entire point of the game is that you go touch these little urchins, who are hogtied and struggling and calling your (well, Michael's) name.

I know those of you that never saw this game in real life probably think I'm making this shit up. You'd definitely think I was making it all up if I told you that I had undoctored game footage of Michael in an alleyway, first deftly avoiding getting assaulted with a five-foot metal cock, then immediately returning the favor to a little boy huddled up against a streetlight...

Sonic, my ass. That game has Michael Jackson written all over it, man.

Is this gonna be kosher or not?

I wouldn't think so. Being fisted by a police officer isn't kosher, either. I asked.

RabbitJack's Casino is still running after 17 years. AOL pulled the plug on it about 2 years ago but it still be played unofficially in private rooms. The current schedule and software can be found at here.

Hmmmm.... stimulating content indeed.

Please don't pretend that the internet is a worthwhile waste of time. TV and "the Web" have about the same ratio of informative content to crap. You choose whether or not to seek out the informative portions. Joe Average uses the internet to chat pretending to be a different gender, trade music, and look up porn and you know it. Not a breadth more worthwhile than sitting your fat ass on the couch and watching ER.

Later, I started getting compaints from several at the college I work at. He was spamming all employees. I sent him another e-mail asking him to voluntarily stop sending the messages to everyone in the college. I told him if he continued, I'd be forced to esclate the issue to my superiors for action and that would make this a real political mess.

So he writes back to me and the college's attorney and threatens us with legal action. I never threatened to block his e-mails, yet he felt a need to send the following:

"I must say, I am concerned about the threat contained in your e-mail. I am not sure what type of action you are threatening, but you should be aware that, under Title 42, Section 1983 of the United States Code, any person in a position such as yours who deprives a citizen of the United States of any right secured by the United States Constitution is subject to liability in legal actions. Before you take any action that interferes with my First Amendment rights, please consult with counsel for the college."

I was basically told to back off by our legal council, and I did, despite my personal feelings about the issue. Some other techs that report to me got his spam and tried to educate him how to use the Internet as an effective communication vehicle for his campaign, one which wouldn't piss off everyone. He refused to listen to them. So right away, before he's even near being elected, he refuses to listen to his potential constituency and rejects expert advice. Just what we need, another narrow-minded lawyer in the U.S. Congress. His e-mail also stated:

"Mr. Weaverling, I know you disagree with my approach. I encourage you to exercise your First Amendment rights in speaking out against my e-mails. Write letters to your newspaper, send an e-mail to your colleagues, but do not try to act as a censor for the entire college community. It is violative of my First Amendment rights. It is also a disservice to those in the college community who do not object to receiving my e-mails and who want to participate in the marketplace of ideas."

Thank you so much for the valuable advice. Every chance I get, I'm doing just that. Now I get to post to slashdot about it -- and even remain on topic!

So, if you live in Delaware and are a Democrat, I encourage you to go to the state primaries on September 7. I'm going to cast my vote to hopefully help ensure that he doesn't get past the primary. If you'd like to hear his side of the story, his website address is bienerforcongress.com and his e-mail address is stevebiener@aol.com.

As a touring stagehand, I spend the better part of my life moving sensitive equipment around the world in trucks and containers. Most computer (and other electronic) equipment travels in ATA style cases, which are aluminium-framed, wooden faced cases. These give a nice strength-to-weight ratio, especially when compared to all-steel or all-wood cases. As mentioned, Anvil and SKB are two of the larger (and more expensive) companies in this field, but for a project like this you will get about the same quality product for a much better price from a smaller company. Other companies producing custom cases are Big Deal Custom Cases, and Upstate Case Company, and a list of custom cases companies is listed on this page.

Not with LCDs of course, but with similarly delicate instruments and electronics. Search Google for 'ATA approved cases', and you'll see what I'm talking about.

An example

If you're moderately handy, you can build a case yourself that, while heavy, will protect the screen just fine. The parts, such as handles and corner railings are all available if you look around.

Paradise carries a good selection.

Build it out of 3/4" plywood covered in laminate, and use corner and edge protectors and beefy latches. Line it with impact absorbant foam, and you'll be good to go.

A case like this can be knocked out in an afternoon, and would only cost a couple hundred dollars.

K.

Sorry to single you out but it's sad how many posters on /. feel the need to insert an acronym or two just for the hell of it...[w]ould the fifteen seconds that it would have cost you to provide a little clarity kill you?

When's the last time you heard someone here speak of the American Standard Code for Information Interchange? Discussions on the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (or worse, the Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act) would get unnecessarily verbose were it not for the various abbreviations and acronyms that are in common use.

Abbreviations to refer to the various Star Trek movies might confuse in a forum with a more general audience...but in a forum (such as this) that's visited mainly by geeks and with Star Trek as the subject, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain minimal knowledge of common jargon used by that group of people.

(Besides, a simple Google search would point a n00b in the right direction. If you're not willing to do a minimal amount of fact-finding on your own, maybe you'd find this service more to your liking.)

How the heck would they know the number of years ago that 'x' happened...
Simple: Study archeological finds.
Ever heard of carbon dating? No, it's not a new dating show on Fox. It's the method used to determine the age of archeological finds.
Look here for more info: The OCR Carbon Dating home page
In case you didn't understand what they said there, it basically means they have a constant (the rate of decay during a specific amount of time) which they can apply to a variable (current state of decay) to find out how long it took for the variable to get that way.

Numbers as large as the ones quoted by scientists are never 'absolute facts' nor should they be taken as such. They are simply the closest estimates based on the information they have.

Remember, there are always three sides to every story: what you say, what I say, and then there's the truth.
I say evolution, you say no evolution, but we're probably both wrong. But right now, those are the only two options we have, and to me evolution makes more sense.

But, back to the topic at hand. Personally I don't think any of us will live to see talking animals, but who knows what might happen 500 generations from now?

oh, and it's rIdiculous...

You really do painfully try to make a strawman argument out of what he's said. He specifically says that pages on an aggregate site get a bonus, not that they are the be all and end all (despite your idiotic continual references ot "AOL would rule the world!").

You accuse him of refusing to accept any proof that that might not always hold true, but then you go and do the same thing. Here, sitting at my desk, the first thing I could think up for a generic search is "business card": This is something that millions of people have, it's a thriving operation in the printing world: There should be literally millions of pages on the topic, and the order the Google returns hits is crucially important to all involved. At number 6 is members.aol.com, with a single instance of "business card" on the entire page (and it's not within the 8 word body). Randomly picking, link #61 is this page with business card directly in the title, and in the body six times. Tell us again how wrong his assertion is jedi master?

Simple intellect tells me that he's talking about everyday, average pages, not "hyper competition" pages such as beer or Britney Spears (which was known to be a heavily googlebombed term), and it looks to me like he is absolutely correct, despite your slobbering yabberings otherwise.

Do you know how obscenely expensive hand animation is compared to acting?

Full animated features can be made for as little as $5 million, and the total cost less than $50 million. Disney's huge, bloated, animated blockbusters cost about $150 million total, but only a fraction of that is the actual cost of the animation. Compare that to the $20 million salary of a single "A" list actor alone, and the production costs of a typical live-action blockbuster of over $200 million.

with motion capture, one actor can play a dozen parts

do you really think they're going to pay Tom Hanks $32 million when they can pay some actor $5000 to do the motion capture sequences?

Think before you post

Two wrongs don't make a right, but sometimes they cancel each other out.

To get an idea of the possible data rate with this machine: it took him 22 hours!

Suppose, nothing! these guys do it all the time!

Many local zoning ordinances prohibit big (6~8 ft) satellite dishes.

If you are actually talking about government zoning and not covenants, conditions and restrictions (CC AKA deed restrictions), you're in luck. Get an FCC amateur radio license (anyone can get one for the $10 and a very basic understanding of electronics) and tell folks its a ham antenna. Don't mention TV reception.

The FCC's PRB-1 (here and here) is a limited preemption of zoning ordinances. Basically, local government must reasonably accommodate folks when it comes to antennas. A C-band dish in your back yard would certainly be reasonable.

(You may also want to bluff with Section 207 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 which says that folks must allow dishes. It generally only applies to dishes less than a meter but some people won't read the entire document if you have a good poker face.)

Is it possible to use many smaller dishes to achieve the same effect as one big dish in picking up C-band transmissions?

Yes. Hams have beeing builing arrays for years to do moon bounce and whatnot. You can find some over the top pictures here. However, the infrastructure to create such a monster is substantial and is likely to run afoul of the same local ordinances you're trying to work around.

Overall, I don't see the point in using a big dish for TV anymore and an array of smaller dishes to act like a bigger dish seems pointless.

For one thing all this prior art.

My favorites (I had ACS and MCS) were Rocky's Boots and Robot Odyssey.

Those were fun games. :-)

But there was Robot Odyssey on the Apple ][. Now that rocked worlds. You got to program your robot by designing your own TTL logic circuits, and even package routines into reusable chips. I would Love to see a game like that again.

Alas, the attention span of the child seems to follow Moore's law.

fuck it, what you need is this.

Here's a robot violin, built over 65 years ago! And here's a "robot" mechanical harp, built in the 1920's.

Want to see something more recent? Here's a mechanical MIDI-controlled BANJO and GUITAR, currently being sold by a California company called "Ragtime:".

Sure, it's mildly interesting that they used their lego toys to get the mechanicals right, but people have been plucking string instruments with robots for at least 80 years.

[This article attempts to document a vile, ungodly practice that runs rampant through the homosexual geek and hacker community, a practice known as Taco-snotting, or simply snotting. Taco-snotting is something that few geeks dare talk about in free or open conversation, but it is nonetheless a widely-practiced and dangerous form of homosexuality. If you or anyone you know has ever engaged in Taco-snotting, please get professional help before it is too late. ed.]

Why do I keep receiving emails from an individual calling himself CmdrTaco?

You have been receiving unsolicited mailings from a certain Robert CmdrTaco Malda, owner of the popular technology website slashdot.org. Actually, its not a very popular site in the common sense of the word; the site is rife with pimply, antisocial geeks and hackers, zit-faced nerds, communists, dirty GNU hippies, and other societal rejects and outcasts. Its also home to one of the worlds largest suspected pdophile rings, the infamous Slashdot crew.

Whenever Mr. Malda gets bored (and who wouldnt, running a site like Slashdot all day), he roams through the user database, penis in hand, looking for people who might enjoy engaging in homosexual activities with him. How he determines this is anyones guess; but if you have a homosexual-sounding nickname, or a nick with a letter of the English alphabet in it, youre a potential candidate.

This time, he found you. Lucky you.

Mr. Malda seems to be speaking in some sort of code. Do you know what it means?

CmdrTacos code language is relatively easy to decipher. This pervert prefers to speak in thinly-veiled sexual innuendo (yes, thats right: he wants you) to evade the watchful eye of Slashdots parent corporation, VA Software. Mr. Maldas Commander is, of course, his penis: a small, withered little thing that lives in his pants and only comes out in the presence of other male geeks or at the beck and call of Maldas own lubed-up right hand. His Taco bells are the shriveled testicles that droop beneath his Commander, and his Taco sauce is his thin, runny semen. It should be more than obvious to you now what he means if he asked you to ring his Taco bells or taste his gourmet Taco sauce.

I would also guess CmdrTaco asked you to engage in a practice known as Taco-snotting and, if he was in a particularly depraved mood at the time, a circle-snot.

Good Lord. And, yes, he did. What is Taco-snotting?

Taco-snotting is the term used by Robert Malda to refer to the depraved act of fellating another man (homo- or heterosexual; CmdrTaco is rumoured to prefer raping unwilling victims), then blowing the semen out his nose and back onto the face and body of his victim. Naturally, a long, bubbly stream of milky-white semen is left on CmdrTacos face, dribbling out of his nose and down his cheek: hence the term, Taco-snotting.

And if thats not bad enough

A circle-snot is a Taco-snotting circle-jerk, another practice common among the Slashdot crew. CmdrTaco, CowboiKneel, and Homos get together and snot each other with their gooey, sticky cum spooging their jizz-snot all over each others faces and pasty, white bodies, until theyre covered head to toe with their own and each others man juice. This vile, ungodly ritual can go on for hours. For the homosexual penetration that follows this lengthy foreplay, Roblowme is usually there to provide plenty of anal lubricant; he owns a limousine service and has ample supplies of motor oil and axle grease ready to go.

To complete this perverted orgy, fellow faggots Michael, Timothy, and Jamie will usually join in, dressed in tight leather mock-S.S. uniforms, jack boots, and leather gloves. The homosexual shenanigans that follow are nearly beyond description. The whole group begins to snot each others spunk and whip each others pudgy asses with riding crops and chains until their pale, white geek bodies are exhausted and soaked in stinking sweat from the hours of passionate, homosexual revelry.

Ewwwwww. So, can I stop receiving these emails?

Hopefully, but I wouldnt count on it.

To begin with, you most likely forgot to uncheck the Willing to Snot checkbox in your account preferences. CmdrTaco has probably already got the hots for your wad (do you have a homosexual-sounding nick?), and hes probably already been lurking outside your bathroom window for weeks with a camera, some tissues and lube, just waiting to pounce and declare you his new bitch. Theres no escaping a geek in heat (trust me), so its probably too late for you, but you can possibly rectify this situation. To remove yourself from CmdrTacos sights, log into your Slashdot account, go to your user page, click on Messages, and uncheck the box next to Willing to Snot. Maybe hell ignore you. Probably not.

I cant stop receiving these emails from CmdrTaco!?

If you indulge him in a Taco-snot or two, he might leave you alone. You might also want to look into mail filtering, restraining orders, or purchasing a heavy, blunt object capable of warding off rampaging homosexual geeks in heat. Trust me, when they charge oh, the humanity. If he gets you, and you let him Taco-snot all over you, you will most likely end up tied up in his basement to be used as his sex slave for the rest of your life (or until he accidentally drowns you in spunk in a circle-snot).

Have you ever been Taco-snotted?

Unfortunately, yes. I first met Mr. Malda at an Open Source Convention. He invited me back to his room for a game of Quake and some gourmet Tacos, but when I got there, the perverted geek jumped me and handcuffed me to his bed, stripping me. After taking his Commander out of his pants, Mr. Taco made me suck the withered thing six times, virtually nonstop. He then performed his vile Taco-snotting ritual on me three times over the next two hours, bringing me to orgasm after orgasm after sweaty, mind-numbing orgasm then he snotted my own thick, gooey jizz back onto my face out of his nostrils! He snotted me two more times, first into my mouth, then again on my exposed belly.

CmdrTaco invited several of his Open Source (or rather, Open Sauce man sauce) buddies over to continue their ungodly snotfest. European hacker and known berfaggot Linux Torvalds raped my ass with his monolithic kernel; his partner-in-crime Anal Cox used their network stack in a multitude of unspeakable ways on and in every orifice of my defenseless, tender, young body. Michael Sims was there in his leather Nazi uniform, caning my previously-virginal ass with a bamboo pole and ranting about all those Censorware freaks out to get him.

That is so disgusting! How did you finally escape?

After about 16 hours of countless unholy, homosexual atrocities perpetrated against my restrained body, they all finally went to sleep on top of me, sweat-soaked and exhausted. I was left there, completely covered in bubbly, translucent jizz-snot, chained to the bed, with half a dozen fat, pasty-white fags lying around and on top of me. Fortunately the spooge coating my flesh worked wonderfully as a lubricant I was able to squirm my way out of the handcuffs and slip out the back door (of the apartment, not their back doors). Im just glad I survived the awful ordeal. These sexually-repressed hackers had a lot of built-up spunk in their wads I couldve easily been drowned!

Thats horrible. Does Taco-snotting have anything to do with CmdrTacos special taco?

No, thats a different disgusting perversion CmdrTaco indulges himself in. Mr. Malda is usually not satisfied with merely snotting your own jizz back onto your face, he most often enjoys involving his own bodily fluids in his twisted games. WeatherTroll has spent some time trying to educate the Slashdot readership about this vile practice (emphasis added):

You may be wondering what CmdrTacos special taco is. You will be wishing that you hadnt been wondering after you finish reading this post. To make his special taco, CmdrTaco takes a taco shell and shits on it. He then adds lettuce, takes out his tiny withered dick (otherwise known as his Commander), puts his special taco sauce on it which means he jacks off on the taco, and adds a compound to make the person who eats the taco unconscious. Of course, the compound does not make the person unconscious until the taco is fully eaten. Thus CmdrTaco force-feeds the taco to the unsuspecting victim. After all, who would knowingly eat shit and CmdrTacos jizz?

After the victim is unconscious, he is held against his will and used for CmdrTacos nefarious homosexual purposes. This includes shoving taco shells up the victims ass, Taco-snotting, and getting Jon Katz involved. Trust me, you do not want Jon Katz anywhere near your unconscious body. Also, rumor has it CmdrTaco is looking for a new goatse.cx guy. Dont let it be you!

Different ungodly perversion, yet no less revolting. It should be clear to you now that Robert CmdrTaco Malda is a very, very sick individual, as are most of the Slashdot editors.

Does Jon Katz get involved in any of this? I thought he was a pdophile, not a homosexual.

Actually, Jon Katz is a homosexual pdophile. Hes also a coprophiliac, and, many suspect, a zoophile.

Mr. Katz is somewhat of a loner and doesnt involve himself in the circle-snots, but that doest mean hes any less of a freak than the rest of the Slashdot crew. Katz often engages in a game called juicy-douching with a harem of little-boy slaves that he has collected over the years: yet another vile practice which involves administering an enema to himself of the little boys urine (forced out of them with a pair of pincers), spooging the vile muck from his ass back into the enema bag, then dribbling and slathering the goo all over himself and the boys chained, naked bodies. If hes in the mood, he will sometimes skip refilling the enema bag from his distended anus and just squirt it from his ass onto the crying, terrified boys. Unwilling boys are further tortured with the pincers until they comply and allow Mr. Katz to juicy-douche them at will. A boy will usually last about two years before Mr. Katz either accidentally drowns them in diarrhea or kills them once they get too old, usually around 13 or 14.

Not content with being a pdophilic coprophile, Mr. Katz is also quite the zoophile. As if the sexual escapades with the helpless little boys arent enough, Jon usually enjoys his juicy-douches best when his penis is firmly planted in a female goats anus. He is also rumoured to get off on watching his little boys eat the goats small, bean-like turds, and he often kills his older boys by letting his goats trample them.

Are you getting hard writing this?

Why, yes. :) Join me in a WIPO-snot?

No, thanks. Im already CmdrTacos boi toi.

[This article attempts to document a vile, ungodly practice that runs rampant through the homosexual geek and hacker community, a practice known as Taco-snotting, or simply snotting. Taco-snotting is something that few geeks dare talk about in free or open conversation, but it is nonetheless a widely-practiced and dangerous form of homosexuality. If you or anyone you know has ever engaged in Taco-snotting, please get professional help before it is too late. ed.]

Why do I keep receiving emails from an individual calling himself CmdrTaco?

You have been receiving unsolicited mailings from a certain Robert CmdrTaco Malda, owner of the popular technology website slashdot.org. Actually, its not a very popular site in the common sense of the word; the site is rife with pimply, antisocial geeks and hackers, zit-faced nerds, communists, dirty GNU hippies, and other societal rejects and outcasts. Its also home to one of the worlds largest suspected pdophile rings, the infamous Slashdot crew.

Whenever Mr. Malda gets bored (and who wouldnt, running a site like Slashdot all day), he roams through the user database, penis in hand, looking for people who might enjoy engaging in homosexual activities with him. How he determines this is anyones guess; but if you have a homosexual-sounding nickname, or a nick with a letter of the English alphabet in it, youre a potential candidate.

This time, he found you. Lucky you.

Mr. Malda seems to be speaking in some sort of code. Do you know what it means?

CmdrTacos code language is relatively easy to decipher. This pervert prefers to speak in thinly-veiled sexual innuendo (yes, thats right: he wants you) to evade the watchful eye of Slashdots parent corporation, VA Software. Mr. Maldas Commander is, of course, his penis: a small, withered little thing that lives in his pants and only comes out in the presence of other male geeks or at the beck and call of Maldas own lubed-up right hand. His Taco bells are the shriveled testicles that droop beneath his Commander, and his Taco sauce is his thin, runny semen. It should be more than obvious to you now what he means if he asked you to ring his Taco bells or taste his gourmet Taco sauce.

I would also guess CmdrTaco asked you to engage in a practice known as Taco-snotting and, if he was in a particularly depraved mood at the time, a circle-snot.

Good Lord. And, yes, he did. What is Taco-snotting?

Taco-snotting is the term used by Robert Malda to refer to the depraved act of fellating another man (homo- or heterosexual; CmdrTaco is rumoured to prefer raping unwilling victims), then blowing the semen out his nose and back onto the face and body of his victim. Naturally, a long, bubbly stream of milky-white semen is left on CmdrTacos face, dribbling out of his nose and down his cheek: hence the term, Taco-snotting.

And if thats not bad enough

A circle-snot is a Taco-snotting circle-jerk, another practice common among the Slashdot crew. CmdrTaco, CowboiKneel, and Homos get together and snot each other with their gooey, sticky cum spooging their jizz-snot all over each others faces and pasty, white bodies, until theyre covered head to toe with their own and each others man juice. This vile, ungodly ritual can go on for hours. For the homosexual penetration that follows this lengthy foreplay, Roblowme is usually there to provide plenty of anal lubricant; he owns a limousine service and has ample supplies of motor oil and axle grease ready to go.

To complete this perverted orgy, fellow faggots Michael, Timothy, and Jamie will usually join in, dressed in tight leather mock-S.S. uniforms, jack boots, and leather gloves. The homosexual shenanigans that follow are nearly beyond description. The whole group begins to snot each others spunk and whip each others pudgy asses with riding crops and chains until their pale, white geek bodies are exhausted and soaked in stinking sweat from the hours of passionate, homosexual revelry.

Ewwwwww. So, can I stop receiving these emails?

Hopefully, but I wouldnt count on it.

To begin with, you most likely forgot to uncheck the Willing to Snot checkbox in your account preferences. CmdrTaco has probably already got the hots for your wad (do you have a homosexual-sounding nick?), and hes probably already been lurking outside your bathroom window for weeks with a camera, some tissues and lube, just waiting to pounce and declare you his new bitch. Theres no escaping a geek in heat (trust me), so its probably too late for you, but you can possibly rectify this situation. To remove yourself from CmdrTacos sights, log into your Slashdot account, go to your user page, click on Messages, and uncheck the box next to Willing to Snot. Maybe hell ignore you. Probably not.

I cant stop receiving these emails from CmdrTaco!?

If you indulge him in a Taco-snot or two, he might leave you alone. You might also want to look into mail filtering, restraining orders, or purchasing a heavy, blunt object capable of warding off rampaging homosexual geeks in heat. Trust me, when they charge oh, the humanity. If he gets you, and you let him Taco-snot all over you, you will most likely end up tied up in his basement to be used as his sex slave for the rest of your life (or until he accidentally drowns you in spunk in a circle-snot).

Have you ever been Taco-snotted?

Unfortunately, yes. I first met Mr. Malda at an Open Source Convention. He invited me back to his room for a game of Quake and some gourmet Tacos, but when I got there, the perverted geek jumped me and handcuffed me to his bed, stripping me. After taking his Commander out of his pants, Mr. Taco made me suck the withered thing six times, virtually nonstop. He then performed his vile Taco-snotting ritual on me three times over the next two hours, bringing me to orgasm after orgasm after sweaty, mind-numbing orgasm then he snotted my own thick, gooey jizz back onto my face out of his nostrils! He snotted me two more times, first into my mouth, then again on my exposed belly.

CmdrTaco invited several of his Open Source (or rather, Open Sauce man sauce) buddies over to continue their ungodly snotfest. European hacker and known berfaggot Linux Torvalds raped my ass with his monolithic kernel; his partner-in-crime Anal Cox used their network stack in a multitude of unspeakable ways on and in every orifice of my defenseless, tender, young body. Michael Sims was there in his leather Nazi uniform, caning my previously-virginal ass with a bamboo pole and ranting about all those Censorware freaks out to get him.

That is so disgusting! How did you finally escape?

After about 16 hours of countless unholy, homosexual atrocities perpetrated against my restrained body, they all finally went to sleep on top of me, sweat-soaked and exhausted. I was left there, completely covered in bubbly, translucent jizz-snot, chained to the bed, with half a dozen fat, pasty-white fags lying around and on top of me. Fortunately the spooge coating my flesh worked wonderfully as a lubricant I was able to squirm my way out of the handcuffs and slip out the back door (of the apartment, not their back doors). Im just glad I survived the awful ordeal. These sexually-repressed hackers had a lot of built-up spunk in their wads I couldve easily been drowned!

Thats horrible. Does Taco-snotting have anything to do with CmdrTacos special taco?

No, thats a different disgusting perversion CmdrTaco indulges himself in. Mr. Malda is usually not satisfied with merely snotting your own jizz back onto your face, he most often enjoys involving his own bodily fluids in his twisted games.
