Sign up for GNAA 10th anniversary parties
Tarzana, California (AP) -- The Gay Nigger Association of America (GNAA) is celebrating 10 years of trolling Slashdot (as well as setting up shock sites and vandalizing Wikipedo) and we would like YOU to help us celebrate! The GNAA will be holding 10th anniversary celebration parties at dozens of locations across the US. Founder Timecop will be hosting a party at GNAA World Headquarters in Tarzana, California. We hear there are quite large gatherings also planned for Waco Texas, West Palm Beach Florida, Hope Arkansas, and Kennebunkport Maine. In addition a group of Londoners will simultaneously hold a party to celebrate the GNAUK at a pub in London.
As a bonus incentive GNAA will be giving out free schwag to the parties, but unlike certain websites it will not just be lame tshirts, no, we will be giving away goatse rescue floppies, exclusive first edition DVDs of Gayniggers from Outer Space, copies of Time Magazine, and complete box sets of the L0de Radio Hour. One lucky party will recieve $1,000 to spend at His X Press! So don't delay, arrange your party today!
In true GNAA fashion, we will also be crashing nearby Slashdot parties and drowning out all possible conversation until we get "modded down" by security.
We tried advertising this on Wikipedia but unfortunately our founder's account was banned and we couldn't find a proxy.

Re:So. It was proven pointless long before that.
The third WTC building on 911 collapsed without ANYTHING touching it. It just collapsed straight down as if it had been demolished. They even abandoned it first. It was UNDAMAGED until it collapsed.
You're waaaay behind the times, buddy.

It well known by people on the ground that WTC7 was going to collapse.
Here's some accounts from firefighters on the scene that day. They describe the severe structural damage, large fires, and the potential for collapse.The HOLE in the pentagon was not large enough for the plane that struck.
Wrong.

Beyond that, you still have to explain the downed street lights along the highway, and the damage generator.
You should watch this video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=YVDdjLQkUV8The jet fuel of an airliner doesn't burn hot enough to melt the structural steel that was used in the WTC buildings. Yet they found molten steel in the wreckage.
Absolute idiocy. The steel certainly doesn't have to melt before it fails. And what does the alleged molten metal actually prove? Explosives don't melt steel, and they certainly aren't capable of keeping that steel molten weeks after they've been detonated.
Thermite/thermate doesn't fit the alleged phenomenon either, unless you're suggesting that there was so much of the stuff at the site that it was burning for weeks in order to keep the metal in a liquefied state. (We've all seen videos of thermite at work. The metal resolidifies within a minute after the thermite is expended.)http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-784274
Here's a better video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=dWemhf8fZ2w1 50 9736411725&q=wtc+3
That was not an airplane strike, it was demolition.
It clearly shows the eastern mechanical penthouse collapsing into the building a full 5 seconds before the western penthouse collapses, followed immediately by the rest of the building. Not nearly as clean as you'd like people to believe by showing them only one video of the collapse.
Stop fooling yourself, please. -
Re:The inevitable
It's always interesting to see how posters on Slashdot are reinventing the wheel in environmental issues. For example, municipal waste is treated in an anaerobic bioreactor in ASJ Stormossen waste treatment plant in Mustasaari, Finland. Landfill biogas is also collected. A 1998 report.
A major problem with eco-friendly technology is the relatively undeveloped state of most of the world. Processes like these are novelty in America and practically unheard of in Russia, for example, even if they are becoming commonplace in some areas in Europe. Most of the world's population just dumps the waste somewhere. -

Outing Greenhouse Deniers is Easy
Of the hundreds of comments attached to this story, yours is by far the most insightful and informative. I disagree with your polite "none very impressive", and think you're wrong about "none in global warming" and "unqualified scientist". That panel is composed of professional Greenhouse deniers. They are "impressive" and "qualified" to testify before a Canadian fake "Conservative" government that's hired by polluters to protect Canada's giant fossil fuel exports to the US (our #1 supplier). And probably dreams of a "warm Canada" their vast real estate holdings can finally cash in on as people "migrate" from uninhabitable regions to the south, while finally getting a year-round passage between East and West hemispheres across the Arctic.
Just look at their actual resumes, of course not quoted by "Canada's Fastest Growing Independent News Source", probably also funded by the Canadian Greenhouse industry and their global Murdoch partners.
Tim Patterson is a geologist, not a climate scientist - exactly the kind of scientist the BS article excludes to fake its conclusion that most Greenhouse scientists aren't qualified.
Boris Winterhalter is also a geologist, not a climatologist.
Geologists mostly work for the oil business, which is where most of the money for the entire science comes from, their peers who review, their "next gig pool".
Bob Carter doesn't even rate a page at his tiny Australian department where he's just an "Adjunct" professor.
Timothy Ball's "EnviroTruth" org is a division of the National Center for Public Policy Research, an front for Exxon Greenhouse denial propaganda and other Vast RightWing Conspiracy players.
Wibjörn Karlén's research supports Gore, but he signs the BS letter anyway.
Dick Morgan doesn't have an Exeter page, nor does he have ">any recorded association with the World Meteorological Association, so he has no credentials whatsoever, apart from lying.
These people are professional Greenhouse deniers. That Canadian panel and its Canadian tabloid (an obvious rightwing rag, just looking at its front page) are cheap fronts for the polluters responsible for the Greenhouse. They're not even trying to hide it more than a couple of googles and clicks deep, they hate us so much. And judging from the hundreds of posts in this story falling for it, we are that stupid. -

Re:let's be honest
That's too bad, because that would have made sense. Instead we have the Warren Commision-esque "magic fire".
And severe structural damage.

Re:Futile task
1. Not that I doubt the Pentagon was hit by an aircraft, but it is documented fact that several security camera tapes were confiscated after the crash. Release them in their entirety.
The videos are property of the companies they were confiscated from. It's up to those companies to publically release the videos, not the government.2. Explain to me why standard operating procedures for NORAD that would normally require specific orders to disregard, were disregarded that day.
What procedures were ignored?3. Explain to me how WTC-7 came to be the only steel-framed structure in recorded history to suffer a complete collapse as a result of fire alone. (FEMA's own report offers an elaborate theory which they say has a "low probability of occurance")
The FEMA report was preliminary. Further investigation, not to mention some pictures and some interviews with firefighters on the scene, indicate that WTC7 also suffered severe structural damage, not just fire.4. In light of the signifigance (particularly to insurers, architechts, engineers) of WTC-7's collapse-due-to-fire, why were the building remains sold to China for scrap before they could be fully analyzed?
This is just plain wrong. http://911myths.com/html/recycled_steel.htmlThe building had been evacuated hours before the collapse, it was not necessary for rescue crews. This is a major event in the building industry: if steel structures can collapse from fire alone, insurance rates would have to be adjusted, architects would have to reconsider the design of thousands of structures.
Well, if a building couldn't collapse due to fire alone, then what's the point of fireproofing the steel columns?5. If Flight 93 was destroyed by being crashed (intentionally or accidentally) into a field in Shanksville, PA, why did it leave a debris field over 8+ miles?
It didn't. Indian Lake is not 6 miles from the impact site, as some people would like you to believe. Popular Mechanics has some bits about Flight 93 (continues on next page, too) in their "9/11: Debunking The Myths" article. -

Re:Also
To those who are going to say that marketers tell the truth about products to people who don't know the truth...fuck that. That was true in 1955, and was called advertising. It's not true in 2005, and it's called marketing. I don't think that was true even in 1955. Snake oil salesmen have a longer history, and plenty of quack cures were touted by Madison Avenue long before that.
The Persistent Identification Element is just another example of the lengths marketing scum will go to clandestinely as possible track your movements and sell your data to anyone with a check book. Not that most users shouldn't realize by now that any plugin is likely to be some form of tracking/spyware. For those of you unfortunate enough to be trapped on IE, Flash Disable is a handy tool, its just a pretty front end to disabling & enabling the registry key for flash - one less icon that doing it with importing reg keys manually: Handy Reg Keys Way, both of them require a browser restart to take effect though. Of course, aside from flash being really annoying - its more effective to get to the root of the security problem itself with the security settings panel for Macromedia Flash Player, but you have to flip through several different settings to actually disable them and delete existing ones (under "allow websites to store information how much information on your computer"): Flash Settings Manager. Or perhaps you would like the more permanent fix of: Uninstalling Flash Player Entirely For those using Mozilla and Firefox, you likely already have Flashblock installed, but you should still check out the security settings for Flash.

Re:NOOOOOO!!Or, as a last resort, run the Goatse Rescue Floppy. As the website states: "Goatse Rescue Floppy is an useful tool to keep in your pocket at all times. You'll be able to show the infamous jpg on basically any IBM-PC compatible computer with a floppy drive (or, in extreme cases you can use the CD-ROM drive)."

Re:My Tech Support StoryGive them one of these and tell them it will solve all their problems. Make sure you leave before they try it out!
Seriously, just start charging money. Don't give away what you can sell. Be firm, don't be a doormat. Or don't do it at all. Simple as that.
-
None of the aboveThe answer is clearly the Goatse Rescue floppy.
It comes in both CD and floppy varieties, for your convienience.

Re:Hydrogen from biowaste is stupid.
Biogas (which is mainly methane) is used in Finland. The Finnish Biogas Association has some reports and links.

Similar case in Finland
There was a similar case (turn JavaScript off when visiting the page)) in Finland a couple of months ago. The police ministry had ordered a Finnish webmaster to remove the link to their website. There was quite a lot of talk about that in newsgroups and even in the television.

hello? what about the pjb100?!Can't believe noone's mentioned the PJB100 (Personal Jukebox) yet. 6GB/20GB models available now, apparently they're messing around with 30GB ones too. It receives rave reviews from everyone who buys it (including me), and the SDK's already open and being actively hacked on here on sourceforge (it already does everything you need, and is stable AFAICS). There are kde and gnome frontends, not to mention my personal favourite, pjb-manager.el for emacs!
What else? It has a clever power-saving mode which spins up the disk, reads a whole track into memory, and powers down the disk immediately. That means 5 mins anti-shock (or was it 10? can't remember) and 10 hours listening per Li-Ion battery. Support is nothing less than fantastic, with new firmwares containing features such as minesweeper
:-) And I can upload via USB faster than I can rip CDs, so who cares about FireWire?This is the hacker's choice of MP3 jukebox. It's a no-brainer.

Structured musicIf you're talking about csound and structured music, don't forget the other formats. MP4 is the official one, but it doesn't seem to be taking off in any way; I think it's too complicated.
However one format that no-one's mentioned yet are the grand old tracking systems that originally started life on the Amiga. The latest formats (XM, IT) are astonishingly complex and you can do things in them that you've got no hope of with MIDI; and because each file is self-contained, complete with samples, the sound is completely platform independent. More software than you might think supports them thanks to the amazing Mikmod player library (XMMS and WinAmp will both play nearly all tracker files invisibly to the user). There's some decent music out there, too... alas, I don't have the bandwidth to export my monster MOD file collection, but people like Acumen, Warder and Rapture. Try Rapture's Aurora Borealis as a quick and rather impressive demonstration of what you can do with the format.
And there's lots of tracking software for Linux, too.
