To the point
There's a great stress relief tool relating to the settlement now available from Nitrozac and Snaggy at The Joy of Tech!
Enjoy! -
This rumour again?
I have it on good authority that this rumor will still be going around in the year 2525.
In all seriousness I understand that they have been working on this for a long time (the source of the periodic rumours) and have just been waiting for the price of the displays to come down to a point that makes sense (the reason it stays a rumour). Hopefully this time it will "come true". Apple needs periodic "blockbuster" products and changing the color of the iMac again just won't cut it anymore. -
Re:Snaggy's Geek Culture webstore propaganda :)Oh My Snaggy. That has to be the greatest "Shameless Self Plug" on earth.
But while we are making our Christmas Wishes...
I'll go for Fawn in a bow, with a lifetime supply of Little Red Nitrozacs. Do they come in higher dosages than 0.025mg? I'd like more time than just a few minutes. [Wink Wink] -
Snaggy's Geek Culture webstore propaganda :)Here's a smart idea.... one of our GENIUS shirts, or even better, the Einstein's Wardrobe Special!
That's right, in the spirit of the genius who wore the same style of suit every day, we are offering 7 shirts! Yep, that is one for every day of the week! You will never again have to waste your precious thoughts on that annoying question "What should I wear today!"
How about a HacKer Hat or other super cool propellor beanies?
How about this Christmas tree Hack?
:-) A blatant attempt to start a new Christmas tradition based on our merchandise... 20 of our great buttons and a propellor beanie... Christmas tree not included!For Sci Fi Geeks, try our some posters of Arthur C. Clarke conversing with the ghosts of Robert A. Heinlein and Isaac Asimov, or the button set.
and in the bargain bin, heh, there's the Slashdot Gladiator t-shirt!
cue up announcer voice... that's right folks, at the Geek Culture Webstore!

Nitrozac and I have a lot of fun doing our job, which is doing The Joy of Tech. Sure, the pay sucks, it's endless work, and sometimes a comic will bomb, but at what other job could you turn David Pogue into an icon?

An Urgent Plea
After having seen a few of my recent posts to this site, you might be forgiven for thinking that I harbour unfriendly feelings towards the sites administrators. Nothing could be further from the truth. I'm not a bad guy, really. I like these guys.
I want to help them.
I'm going to start today, and the best part about it is you can help me help them. Here's how:
The Get Timothy Lord Laid Appeal
Dear Reader,
I wish to bring to your attention an deplorable situation which cannot be allowed to continue. For too many years, Timothy Lord has been denied womanly affection. Of all the slashdot editors, I feel that he is the least undeserving of feminine attention, and yet, it seems that he suffers the most for the lack of it. His entry on the authors page is as follows:
" If you know (or are) a smart, cute, wonderful single woman who likes aloud reading and laughing, please let me know. Substantial Reward, references available, have own car."
I know we've all read his strangely formal plea, and felt in our souls the aching need he feels in his balls, but have any of us yet responded to this cry for help? I know there must be at least one smart, cute, single woman who reads this page. Unlike Timothy, many of us are blessed with the friendship of women who fit this description. And I know we'd all like to help out.
Timothy is currently the most prolific author of slashdot. He is the only editor who has not abandoned his commitment to the slashdot readers in order to implement lameness filters that don't work and moderate posts "for the good of the readers."
Timothy is slashdot's last honourable man.
Is it right to keep his dick on ice like this? No, I didn't think so. He's a sweet guy. Why are you torturing him? What's wrong with you? Don't you have a heart?!
Despite his sick dreams about Mena Suvari, I feel that Timothy is as perfect a gentleman you could hope to meet. If my instincts aren't recommendation enough, here's an artist's impression of what Tim would look like just after you put your keys on his forehead, prior to making him eat your ass. He cooks, too.
So how can you help?
- Are you an attractive young woman or sufficiently effeminate man. who lives in or near Tennessee? Do you want to make your life mean something? Why not send Tim and email and offer to service him? Don't forget to let us know, so we can all thank and respect you.
- Do you know a woman of such low moral fibre that she would willingly offer herself for sex to a man she's never met? Want to pimp her to Tim? Email Tim, and reply here, so we can give you props, jigga-man.
- Do you have Timothy's email address? I don't. Help us out. I'm guessing timothy@slashdot.org probably works.
- Got some advice for the unloved? Help a brother out. Post it here.
- If all else fails: If we can't put Tim in a warm bed with a willing female, we can at least put him in a seedy motel bed with a disinterested but well-remunerated whore. Help Tim and contribute to the prostitution industry of Tennessee. Pledge your donation below.
Help in any way you can. Time is short. For all I know, Tim has never felt the love of a good woman. I'm pretty sure if you make it to 28 without getting laid at least once, your dick falls off in disgust. Plus, he's contemplating alternative lifestyles.

Some unrelated notes: Why is there an indigo girls song on the censorware page? Is Sims trying to tell us he's a lesbian?
I wanted to use these pictures of Nitrozac in this letter, but couldn't think of a good way to include them. Hopefully someone will find a use for them:

In the comic, an apocolyptic Y2K bug occurred, and after a series of spectacular cartoon universe events, our characters are in the process of re-building their society.
In our version, the hysterical process of re-building is mirroring the actual historical development somewhat , ...we just came off of the Tubes Period, and will be moving into a new Era soon.
But you probably know all this already, since you're a fan. ;)

Re:Unix Wars, and The Importance of Being GPL
Microsoft took the BSD code, added proprietary extensions to it (of course), and re-released it under thier all-powerful EULA. The BSD license permits this.
If it was Linux code it would be called theft, although it has been leaked that Microsoft has a team dedicated to auditing the linux kernel and samba especially in order to "inspire" thier own code.
In many ways, the BSD license is responsible for the success of Microsoft, because instead of coding themselves, it took less time to take someone else's free code, change the license and sell it. -

It is my belief
... that we as a culture (a Geek Culture, of course.) should demand Cap'n Crunch as an ikon, worthy of veneration - that is, unless there are ikonoklasts in the
/. world. Man... the things you come up with half an hour out of bed .
(I mis-spelled "icon" on purpose, BTW, to distinguish between the thing you click on, and the thing you worship. "Ikon" is from the Greek of the similar spelling (iota-kappa-omikron-nu), and denotes a thing worthy of worship. See Greek and Byzantine history for more.)
