Slashdot Mirror

root is unsafe because it is very easy to shoot one's self in the foot when root. Consider the trivial example of typing rm *, or rm -rf * in the wrong dir.

I can't read TFA, it appears WIRED is slashdotted:
http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,1282,67190, 00.html#
So I see your mirror site:

and go to the Appropriate Link:
http://www.networkmirror.com/CC_qTtXVggGorP95/www. wired.com/news/technology/0%2C1282%2C67190%2C00.ht ml%23.html
but that doesn't have any mirrored content.

Speaking of "Easter eggs" and the recent holiday, I can only imagine these photographs (since I can't actually see TFP's), perhaps one from the mideast with a big crowd throwing rocks at three guys hanging on crosses...

The rest, you can find on your own. :)

At Network Mirror I'm showing 79.4% Mozilla, 18.9% IE. Since all traffic is Slashdot derived, it's probably a pretty good representative sample of the Slashdot population as a whole.

'It doesn't make sense to unveil the product behind a closed door, at a trade-only event,' according to Microsoft corporate VP Peter Moore. 'We wanted to talk directly to the consumer first.'"

I agree, this is an excellent article and really clarified a lot of things for this CRT user.

Oh yeah, there's a mirror of the full article (no missing pages, I swear!) here

A whois on this dubious website that seems to just mirror/copy slashdot, networkmirror.com, revealed it was reigstered through a proxy-domain registar.. domainsbyproxy.com

A simple look at the site will show it's very plain and shows very little work done besides straight mirroring/copying slashdot.

April 1st, eh? Look at this guy's posting history again.. This here was the first post of his showing 'mirrors'.. on April 4th...

on the net... here's some links to the article.

Nehemiah writes "Epiacenter.com just published a review on the brandnewVIA Epia SP 13000 mini-itx mainboard.
It's the first VIA Epia board with the CN400 chipset and together with the new epiOS Linux distribution that is announced in the review, it seems to have a very good performance during MPEG2/MPEG4 playback."

Roland Piquepaille writes "Today, we're using basically two ways to move data in our computers: transistors carry small amounts of data and are extremely small, while fiber optic cables can carry huge amounts of data, but are much bigger in size. Now, imagine a single technology combining the advantages of photonics and electronics. This Stanford University report says a new technology can do it: plasmonics. (For more about plasmons, read this Wikipedia article.) Theoretically, it is possible to design plasmonic components with the same materials used today by chipmakers, but with frequencies 100,000 times greater than the ones of current microprocessors. There is still a challenge to solve before getting plasmonic chips. Today, plasmons can only travel a few millimeters before dying, while today's chips are typically about a centimeter across. Read this overview for more details and references about plasmonics, and to discover why it's one possible future for chips' circuitry."

Jim Hanas excertps from his very funny article on the quiet disappearance of last-year's promised digital bacchanal. "Remember 'toothing'? It was a craze that was sweeping England last year as bored commuters arranged sexual encounters using Bluetooth-enabled cellphones. You probably read about it over at Wired or Reuters or the BBC. There's a decent chance you even blogged about it. Well. What happened?"

nnet writes "The Toronto Sun is reporting that a U.S. blogger has been breaching a Canadian publication ban on AdScam. While The Sun hasn't given the URL for the blog itself, in fear of a contempt of court charge, this isn't the first time an American has breached a Canadian publication ban according to the article." The Sun story, though, does give a nice title for which to search, and this quickly yields the story in question.

Thomas Hawk writes "Phillip Swann's TV Predictions is out this morning alleging that before dumping their TiVo stock last year, Rupert Murdoch's DirecTV had made a pass at buying a controlling stake in TiVo. According to Swann, 'TiVo's top management did not like Murdoch's offer,' and Swann alleges that this is why you had a fallout between the two companies. As an interesting aside, Rob Pegoraro over at the Washington Post was out yesterday warning people to not buy an HDTV TiVo, as DirecTV will be changing their high-def signal later this year and that if you bought the HDTV TiVo that you might not be able to watch network TV in high def. As an owner of one of those expensive high-def DirecTV TiVos, I sure hope this isn't the case."

_Bunny writes "The City of Dayton, Ohio announced a plan to make all of downtown a WiFi hotspot - and as of last week, the network is live. This makes Dayton the first Ohio city to offer free WiFi access. Approximately one square mile of downtown is now live, including Firth Third Field, the Oregon District, Webster Station and RiverScape. The WiFi project is a public/private partnership not funded by taxpayers, and comes at no charge to the end user." (According to the linked story at WHIO-TV, the city is actually paying about $5,000 per year, with advertisers picking up the rest of the tab.)
