Slashdot Mirror

When are the slashdot mods going to learn the difference between "its" and "it's"? Strong Bad explains it best.

ROBOT: Come on, Fhqwhgads.

STRONG BAD: I said come on Fhqwhgads
I said come on Fhqwhgads
Everybody to the limit
Everybody to the limit
Everybody come on Fhqwhgads

I said come on Fhqwhgads
I said come on Fhqwhgads
Everybody to the limit
Who's that? It's to the limit
Everybody come on Fhqwhgads

Come on Fhqwhgads
I see you jockin' me
Tryin' to play like
You know me

I'm like come on Fhqwhgads
I said come on Fhqwhgads
Everybody to the limit
The Cheat is to the limit
Everybody come on Fhqwhgads

I said ooh ah Fhqwhgads
I said ooh ah Fhqwhgads
Who's that fh-huh-hoo-huga-wha
I said who is that Fhqwhgads

I don't know who it is
But it probably is Fhqwhgads
I asked my friend Joe
I asked my friend Jake
They said it was Fhqwhgads

I said come on Fhqwhgads
I said come on Fhqwhgads
Who's-a to the limit?
C'est me! I'm to the limit
Everybody come on Fhqwhgads

Man, Fhqwhgads
You're just making yourself look worse, y'know
I mean, everybody's just gonna feel sorry for ya
I mean, I do.

Sad...no homestarrunner love on slashdot. Maybe a little hyperlink action will help out http://www.homestarrunner.com/fhqwhgads.html

Click... and if you didn't know that, better click here as well.

Kristin, you look burnt or DEAD.

That's for sure, he is definetly dot com, but he did make his own list.

They forgot Strong Bad! I dunno, but putting up a list without him sounds kinda.....Dangeresque

BTW, my all time favorite from Homestar Runner, which I'm sure will be appreciated by most people reading Slashdot: Strong Bad's Virus E-Mail

1) The oft-offensive video/image dumping grounds of Adorable Bunnies, and...

2) Homestar Runner! How could anyone forget Homestar? This site spawned such classics as "The Cheat is not dead" and "Peasant's Quest" featuring Trogdor, the Burninator (and it's catchy theme song (/burninating the peasants/who live in thatch roof cottages!!/)). If you don't know what the hell I'm talking about: Homestar Runner Wiki

I'm a little dissapointed that Strong Bad didn't make the list.

SB Email in full screen mode is simple. Just replace the .html with a .swf. Or use Greasemonkey, it works great too.

OK

You're obviously a fan of Homestar Pay Plus!

What is the point or purpose of IPTV?

A practical purpose of IPTV is to allow content from anywhere and anyone - not just Big Business. Now, Time Warner is doing this only to prevent such a thing from happening.

Take, Strong Bad, for example. I would easily pay like $5/year to watch this creativity a couple times per month. What happens if 30 million others feel the same way? Instant negation of Big Business, that is what.

Time Warner, Comcast, NBC, CBS, Fox and all those others need to be first here or they will be gone in short time.

Imagine the complexity one could introduce to the game...Maybe not use individual troops, but use something similar to Axis and Allies, where each piece represents approximately one division/squadron/task force (maybe ships only represent one ship... has been awhile). Lay siege to your hometown, and animate peasants running through the streets.

Then again, maybe we can adapt Trogdor to play out against SCO's offices...

Name one.

Homestar Runner

Is it pleasant to use? Meh. Depends on your web eccentricity. The site itself is pretty easy and fun.

Flash has it's place, and some flash designers know the good uses, but others just need to beat on the head with a web standards stick.

Asploding ones are even more so.

Not at Homestar Runner

Sheesh, get with the program, you.. you.. nonconformist, you!

I was about to show my boss an example of cool flash animation and I accidentally typed http://homestarunner.com instead of http://homestarrunner.com! All these nudies poppup up on screen and my face turned red. Man, did he give me beans over that.

According to this article, OpenBSD 2.6 has been released, despite still being dead. Linus Torvalds has publicly accused Microsoft of resorting to bully tactics, but Richard Stallman has built a beowulf cluster of supercomputers in Soviet Russia, which promises to defend all our base.

Crosses fingers and eagerly waits for "story accepted" confirmation...

Strong Bad said it best with "If you want it to be possessive, it's just 'ITS.' But if it's supposed to be a contraction then it's I-T-apostrophe-S, 'scalawag."

Well, hopefully it's easier than Swedes trying to learn English.

Homestar Runner is completely ad-free - but they have a pretty good little niche where they can sell enough merchandise to keep it going.

Take /. for instance - let's see a raise of hands here:
How many has a /. plushie?
Well, a /. CD?
Coffee mug, then, and perhaps a t-shirt?
Oh, three.

Well, y'see, those two t-shirts and that mug ain't gonna pay the server costs - but right now, having ads will.
I know, some of you are subscribers, and that probably covers a few percent as well.
That's the entire point.

While it's really nice to have sites with NO advertising (like H*R), for most sites, it's just not an option.

As much as I hate ads and having to block all those different adservers every time a new one pops up, I have been thinking the same thing - what happens to my favourite sites when they don't get the revenue stream that they'd get from ads?

Coach Z made a robot... named Elvis? Makes sense. Wow - great jorb!

Because it can be ported to as many platforms as we want to without waiting for the benevolence of the whizbang-antialiased-vector-animation-website-intr o-blinking-ads-with-sound overlords, several rendering backends will eventually be possible (OpenGL accelerated, albeit fullscreen flash animations are not an issue anymore with current cpus, but offloading processing to GPU is IMO a Good Thing®), there are actually a few good things made in flash, like Strong Bad , it will be a while until svg gets traction on the internet, and there are already SVG implementations going along which will not die (KDE, Mozilla, Gnome).

What about an Open Source decompiler for SWF files ?

Oooooh, imagine the Homestar Runner episodes I could recreate :D

Like poor kids making cartoons?

"Oh, if you want it to be possessive it's just eye tee ess,
but if it's supposed to be a contraction, it's eye tee apostrophe ess, ... scalawag."

Click on the beefy arm!

I'm a Linux/Libre software zealot who's 100% in favor of Flash. By not having it installed, I miss out on all the things on which I want to miss out.

Band Names

Taranchula!

Isn't it just a little suspicious that there's only a one-letter difference between 'garage sale' and 'garbage sale'?

That would be the funniest thing ever on Teen Girl Squad.

Strong Bad - Click the bicep at the end

The latest versions of AdBlock and FlashBlock don't seem to work together. Some items get removed like the navigation menu on Strong Bad's e-mails.

What happens when you want to watch some flash cartoons?

...burninating the countryside?

Does "Wo Hell Lord" remind anyone else of HomestarRunner?

God forbid the is ever written a Lil' Brudder Act. It probably would hide the fact they intend to poison anyone who isn't white and right wing Christian.

So let me get this straight: X64 doesn't support flash? At all? The only way I can distract my 13 month old so I can read the NYT is by popping on an Strong Bad Email... and to think I was going to upgrade next week. Thanks very much - my ear drums appreciate it!

Well, that and PDF sucks ass. Flash is a wonderful web medium. PDF is a massive nuisance. Putting a document in a PDF is a guaranteed signal to me that says: I AM MEANINGLESS FORMATTING AND FLUFF. DO NOT BOTHER TO READ ME. I curse every time I accidentally click on a link that leads me to some fucking PDF file, because it kills my browser, and I can't even switch to another tab to wait while the now proven-useless and boring shit loads.

It's hard to imagine, but I'm sure Adobe will load up new releases of Flash with meaningless bandwidth- and processor-gobbling horseshit and in the process ruin the greatest website in existence.

Luckily for me, I have Edga Jr. to protect me from articles like this.

It means that this guy will finally be able to send PDF attachments.

I keep hearing that. I wish I'd see an example...

Homestar Runner?

Channel 1: The Homestar Channel. Channel 2: The Weebl and Bob channel. Channel 3 will be dedicated to various Star Wars Kid videos. Don't forget you have a couple thousand channels of porn...

We have to go in space - because Limozeen is:
