Not if anyone but Sony changes it. Sony owns the CD Trademark AFAIK and thus can simply declare the new format the "CD".

Philips is serious about maintaining CD compatibility, and has forced the purveyors of incompatiple DRM schemes to clearly label that they are not compatible with the standard.

The first time a unit is actually ordered and purposefully told to attack a rioting/rebellious crowd. Nothing kills morale more than taking out the people you are sworn to protect - not by accident, or lack of training, but by explicit command. All the laws and procedures setup now would be chucked out the window in a full style reveloutionary counter-action. Picking sides will halve, or quarter, the ranks.

Unless they are asked to shoot rebelious college students.

The obligatory quote from Shakespeare's Henry VI is apt in the face of the insanely, litigious state of Corporate culture. "...kill all the lawyers.", and the system fails. The path seems to be grab whatever you can, lay claim via the USPTO, who seem ready to oblige. Then litigate and hold out for a buyout. SCO seems to be run by idiots, as they appear to be failing where all others succeed.

Here's a nice summary of michael's editorial failings. Also, don't miss this description of his general douchebaggery. His comment tacked onto the end of this story was probably the last straw; search the comments for "michael".

Bush's Justice Department is prosecuting corporate crooks who committed their crimes under Clinton, yet you use this as an opportunity to slam Bush.

You remind me of a squawking parrot who has been locked in a room with a Michael Moore mockumentary on continuous loop. Your statements are not just unfounded, but the very mirror image of reality. The corporate crooks were, by and large, in bed with Clinton and other prominent Democrats (Rubin, McAuliffe, etc.), and now they are getting prosecuted by Bush, and you think this is a reason to slam the Bush White House?

Much of what you think you know from watching the mainstream media is a lie. Get a grip and quit being blinded to reality by your own irrational hatred, you pathetic ignorant fool.

Michael Sims, Domain Hijacking and Moral Equivalancy

How would you feel if your webmaster maliciously took your web-site offline, then, when you demanded its return, put up a site attacking your company at your old URL? It happened to a group I was involved in, the Censorware Project, currently at http://www.censorware.net. The purpose of this essay is to put the behavior on record, and to give you some impressions and inferences about it.

The Censorware Project was originally an informal collective of six people who collaborated online to fight censorware: Seth Finkelstein, Bennett Haselton, Jamie McCarthy, Mike Sims, Jim Tyre and myself. Several of us had never met or even spoken on the phone, yet for some time -- around two years as I recall -- we had a remarkably easy collaboration. There was no funding, no hierarchy, no titles, not even project managers. Someone would suggest a project and take the responsibility for a part of it, others would sign up for other elements, and proceeding this way we got a remarkable amount of work done, including reports on X-Stop, Cyberpatrol, Bess and other censorware products.

Even though two of us were attorneys -- Jim and myself -- we never incorporated the group or wrote a charter or any contracts among ourselves. Mike Sims was obliging enough to register the domain, just as other members paid for press releases and the other incidental expenses which came along. Mike also served as webmaster of the censorware.org site and did substantial work for the group, including writing contributions to several of the reports and lead authorship of at least one. Seth was the source of our decrypted censorware blacklists and managed many technical tasks, but later felt he had to leave the group because of the increasing prospects of a lawsuit, particularly under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). After Seth left the group, the remaining five continued.

Robert Frost said that "nothing gold can stay," and the Censorware Project was no exception. Over the summer of 2000, Mike Sims' reaction to a perceived slight from Jim Tyre was to take the site down for a week. He sent us mail at the time saying something like "The Censorware Project is now closed." I replied to him that, given that the group was a collective and we all had an interest in its work product, the domain, and the goodwill it had achieved, the decision was not his to make. Sims did not reply.

After Seth created a partial, text, mirror, Mike put the site back up a week later without explaining, let alone apologizing for, his actions. Given his continuing failure to answer any email from me (and I think from others) and the overall signs that Sims thought the group was exclusively his, I wrote him several emails requesting that he turn the domain over to Jamie or Bennett, as I felt we could no longer trust him to administer it. We also found out during that time that important email from people trying to contact us, including members of the press, was not being answered by Sims, nor being forwarded to other members.

I ultimately became exasperated that my name was listed as a principal on what had now become a "rogue" site I had no control over. Over about

Comcast pushes VoIP to prime time
By Ben Charny CNET News.com January 10, 2005, 9:54 AM PT

Comcast, the nation's largest cable company, on Monday began selling its version of Internet phone service in three markets, kicking off one of the most significant challenges traditional local phone companies have ever faced.

Initially launching its Digital Voice service in three cities--Indianapolis, Philadelphia and Springfield, Mass.--Comcast plans to reach 20 markets by year's end. The Philadelphia-based company says it intends to make the service available to all its 21 million customers six months after that.

Aside from an aggressive rollout schedule, Comcast has a lofty goal for the number of subscribers the service will attract: 8 million customers in five years, or eight times the number of Internet phone subscribers currently in the United States, according to Rian Wren, Comcast's senior vice president of voice services.

Comcast is the latest, and perhaps most important, addition to the roster of companies selling unlimited domestic dialing to any phone number using voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), which sends calls over the Internet or private network. The technology is cheaper for consumers because it avoids the heavily taxed and regulated traditional local phone networks built and controlled by the Baby Bells--the four regional operating companies formed after the breakup of AT&T. While other cable companies and a host of upstarts such as Vonage Holdings have been selling VoIP since 2002, Comcast is considered the most daunting for the Bells because of its size, financial backing and political muscle.

Wren acknowledged that Comcast is introducing its product months, if not years, behind the rest of its cable competitors, as well as VoIP start-ups such as Vonage and copycats such as AT&T, with its CallVantage service. But the wait was worth it, he says.

"What we've been trying to do is come out with equivalent or better service than traditional phone competition," he said Monday. "You only get one shot at this, when it comes to quality of service." Michael Sims is a worthless piece of shit.

Comcast's long-anticipated push into VoIP illustrates the cutthroat competitiveness between cable and the local phone providers. Both sides are trying to become the primary pipelines for delivering an array of entertainment and communications services into households, including broadband Internet access, multichannel television, high-definition programming and voice calling.

After investing an estimated $75 billion upgrading their networks during the 1990s, cable companies are reaping the rewards for selling their "triple play" of voice, data and video into homes. The local phone companies, realizing their disadvantage, have realigned their attention to target cable's success and plan to invest billions of dollars to upgrade their decaying copper network with speedier fiber-optic lines.

Later this year, regional phone providers such as SBC Communications and Verizon Communications plan to introduce their own video service in hopes of stealing customers from cable. But with Monday's announcement, Comcast hopes its VoIP service, cheaper than unlimited calling plans offered by the local providers, will keep customers from defecting.

At $40 a month when purchased with Comcast's cable and broadband service, $54 a month on its own, Digital Voice is more expensive than what competitors such as Vonage or AT&T offer. Unlimited domestic dialing plans from other VoIP providers often costs as little as $25 a month.

While it remains to be seen whether the price will be lowered, Wren said "we're not trying to focus on niche or cheap priced phone service."

It's that lower cost--as little as 50 percent of traditional landline rates--that has made VoIP a threat to the traditional phone companies. Already the Bells have seen

It has come to my attention that the entire Linux community is a hotbed of so called 'alternative sexuality,' which includes anything from hedonistic orgies to homosexuality to pedophilia.

What better way of demonstrating this than by looking at the hidden messages contained within the names of some of Linux's most outspoken advocates:

Linus Torvalds is an anagram of SLIT ANUS OR VD 'L,' clearly referring to himself by the first initial.

Richard M. Stallman , spokespervert for the Gaysex is Not Unusual 'movement' is an anagram of MANS CRAM THRILL AD.

Alan Cox is barely an anagram of ANAL COX which is just so filthy and unchristian it unnerves me.

I'm sure that Eric S. Raymond, composer of the satanic homosexual propaganda diatribe The Cathedral and the Bizarre, [Buy At Amazon] is probably an anagram of something queer, but we don't need to look that far as we know he's always shoving a gun up some poor little boy's rectum. Update: Eric S. Raymond is actually an anagram for SECONDARY RIM and CORD IN MY ARSE. It just goes to show you that he is indeed queer.

Update the Second: It is also documented that Evil Sicko Gaymond is responsible for a nauseating piece of code called Fetchmail, which is obviously sinister sodomite slang for "Felch Male" - a disgusting practise. For those not in the know, "felching" is the act performed by two perverts wherein one sucks their own post-coital ejaculate out of the other's rectum. In fact, it appears that the dirty Linux faggots set out to undermine the good Republican institution of e-mail, turning it into "e-male."

As far as Richard "(cock)Master" Stallman goes, that filthy fudge-packer was actually quoted on leftist commie propaganda site Salon.com as saying the following:

RMS: "I've been resistant to the pressure to conform in any circumstance," he says. "It's about being able to question conventional wisdom," he asserts. "I believe in love, but not monogamy," he says plainly.

And this isn't a made up troll bullshit either! He actually stated this tripe, which makes it obvious that he is trying to politely say that he's a flaming homo slut!

Speaking about "flaming," who better to point out as a filthy chutney ferret than Slashdot's very own self-confessed pederast Jon Katz. Although an obvious deviant anagram cannot be found from his name, he has already confessed, nay boasted of the homosexual perversion of corrupting the innocence of young children. To quote from the article linked:

"I've got a rare kidney disease,' I told her. 'I have to go to the bathroom a lot. You can come with me if you want, but it takes a while. Is that okay with you? Do you want a note from my doctor?'

Is this why you were touching your p

I keep hearing of all these slippery slopes. We never seem to slide down any of them though. Perhaps it is tin foil hat material.

Are you serious?

Take a look at nearly any section of the U.S. code and you'll see thousands of examples of slippery slopedom. Let's see...

Gun control. We went from the Constitution's 2nd amendment, written at a time when the citizens had far more firepower and advanced weaponry than the government and guaranteed that the Federal government had no authority to limit that right to the recently expired federal ban on scary-looking weapons.

Copyright law. We went from a reasonably short period of protection (14 years with an optional additional 14 years, which both encouraged authors and musicians to keep creating AND benefitted the public) to the extension of copyright to an absurd "author's life plus seventy years" for individuals. Or there's the lovely DMCA which specifically prohibits me from mucking about with the innards of my own personal, private property.

Even more ironic, the government is fighting for exactly the same right that they've taken away from the citizenry with the DMCA:

"'circumvent a technological measure' means to descramble a scrambled work, to decrypt an encrypted work, or otherwise to avoid, bypass, remove, deactivate, or impair a technological measure, without the authority of the copyright owner." ( Source)

That's precisely what they're trying to do by forcing back-doors. My emails are protected by copyright. More importantly, they're private communications and not subject to unwarranted search and seizure (that pesky fourth amendment). Still not convinced that we've been veritably skiing down some slopes yet? How about...

Income Tax: We started out with sales/manufacturing taxes, flirted with an income tax during the civil war, then got rid of it entirely, and declared it unconstitutional (which it was until the 16th amendment), then put it back.

But even in 1913, most people had no tax burden, and the very richest were taxed at an insanely low rate. If you had earned income over $500,000 in 1913 dollars your tax rate was 7%. Compare that to the rate in 2003: 35% if you made $311,950.

I'd like to visit the slope you live on, because the one I seem to be living on is more slippery than a California hillside in the rainy season.

"The first thing we do," said the character in Shakespeare's Henry VI, is "kill all the lawyers." Contrary to popular belief, the proposal was not designed to restore sanity to commercial life. Rather, it was intended to eliminate those who might stand in the way of a contemplated revolution -- thus underscoring the important role that lawyers can play in society.

As the famous remark by the plotter of treachery in Shakespeare's King Henry VI shows - "The first thing we must do is kill all the lawyers," - the surest way to chaos and tyranny even then was to remove the guardians of independent thinking.

http://www.totic.org/nscp/demodoc/demo.html

Quite simply the FCC has ceased to fulfill a usefull function, from the peoples perspective. The original act in 1934 which created the FCC was flawed to begin with (http://www.spectacle.org/896/mistake.html) in several ways. Since that time it has ceased behaving in the public's interest and instead operates for profit.

(http://www.wzls.net/) WZLS was a locally run
station which the FCC decided to auction to the highest bidder. It makes for interesting reading. Over 6,000 of the locals in Asheville, NC signed a petition to save the station. This had NO affect.
WZLS had a varied format, they would play pop, rock, country, folk, blues, almost anything that the public requested. They truely served the community and have been much missed. The station that has taken over the frequency now plays canned oldies.

The truely sad thing, is that we have no construct in place to revoke a federal orginazations charter. I believe it should be a simple act. We can take them to court and try to modify them, but frequently that really can not accomplish what needs to happen.
The 1934 Act specifically mandated that the FCC would act in the interest of the "public convenience, interest, or necessity."(http://www.legal-database.com/communic ations-act-1934.htm)
Quite simply in the case of WZLS it has failed to do this.

In my mind that means it is time to replace the FCC as an entity. Some would say that one failing is not enough, but I feel that this behaviour is such that it must addressed. I do not believe it is too much to ask that my government operate correctly. To have a known error and continue is unacceptable. Clearly the FCC is run with a "good-enough" attitude. I don't believe that "good-enough" is a good strategy for running the land of the free.

Just my 2 cents.

When the next constitutional congress convenes I suggest they make a simple structure for removing a governmental agency which no longer serves its charter.

Just a friendly little reminder to you slashbots about what an upright (domain-jacking) thug^w citizen that MICHAEL SIMS is!

Hey there Slashbots,

Well it's me. Rob Malda. Again. Admin of Slashdot: News for..., well, you know the drill. If I don't seem my chirpy, normal self, it's because I'm in a state of shock. I can't believe what happened yesterday. I got in in the morning only to find the place in uproar. There was this e-mail from Michael:

"Dear All,"


"Included below is the response that I started writing, and choked down, a few weeks ago. I think I had the thought that I ought not to escalate, perhaps the trolls would come to their senses and realize how utterly and totally offensive it was to be constantly reminded of my shabby and shameful Censorware.org BASTARDry. "

"In any case, since Taco has so kindly provided the trolls with platform for the cruelest criticism I've ever received, I shall never hear the end of it. Thanks, Rob. You're a real friend."

"Slashdot.org is now closed."

"If I am to be continuously accused of evil deeds, I might as well do them. Certainly there is no perceptible downside to doing them; I shall be punished as I have been, by constant attack from trolls. And doing them provides a certain measure of satisfaction."

"I believe there are lessons learned by first-year law students which involve human behavior in the face of over-zealous punishments - specifically, the concept that since the punishment for minor crimes was death, if a serf were to be accused of a such a crime, he would go on a rampage, settling old debts with violence while the opportunity existed. "

Well, you can imagine. I was bloody livid. Michael had kindly offered to renew our domain registration in his name when it came up and I just let him get on with it. I forgot all about his past form. So anyway, I tracked the little bastard down to the stationary cupboard, which he had locked himself in. I told him through the keyhole: Slashdot is a collective and we all have an interest in it's work product, the domain and the goodwill and page hits it had achieved. The decision to shut us down was not his to make. At this point he began muttering to himself about deja vu and then hysterically accused me of being Seth Finklestein in disguise.

Anyway, the crisis was averted when some corporate oddbods from VA Software came whizzing down in the Slashdot PT Cruiser and began slapping people around. Michael has refused to come out his cupboard for three days straight, surviving by licking the glue off post-it notes. The local fire department refused to free him, citing "safety concerns". Michael continues to alternate between bouts of crying, hysterical laughter, moaning and sucking his trousers. The worst of it is, he's got my stapler in there with him and I need it.

Thank fuck I got Jamie to make up that emergency Slashdot imitator last Autumn, which automatically creates a new story about porting Linux to something, then dupes it three or four times in a two hour period. We managed to run the bugs out when we turned it on for all of December '03- February '04. Having it on for just the 6 hours Slashdot was down was easy.

Thank goodness I can work off all this stress and aggro at the gym. I've been going to the local YMCA to use the facilities for almost 3 years now. It's amazing really, looking at all the pale European tourist back-packer guys around me. Limp white bodies, junkie thin. Christ, they'd probably do anything for a few dollars. Lucky I'm such a rich guy, in that I don't have to do that sort of stuff to keep my head above water. I like to contribute a few dollars to those charity hostels. I do shit like that because I'm a giver, not a taker.

Anyway, I'll let you know when that crazy little shit comes out of his cupboard. He better not have shat on my new stapler.

Logging off, it's Rob "CmdrTaco" Malda! later, dudes!

Two words for you.

Michael FUCKING Sims .

And because we have understood that our source is eternal, America has been different. We have no king but Jesus."

If he's offended by the bare breast of a statue, just imagine what he thinks of porn. That this man holds public office frightens me very, very much.

I understand the theory, but bad idea. I will not use a rechargable for things like smoke detectors -- NiCad and NiMH batteries lose charge whilst sitting. Even the new ones do, though at a lesser rate.

You are right and I was sloppy. What I really should have said is that they should ban alkaline and carbon zinc cells. A smoke detector or emergency flashlight should be equipped with lithium cells. They have a ten year shelf life and far more power than alkalines. The cost is more in line with rechargeables so the purchase decision would not be so clouded by initial cost.

OTOH, most applications are not like smoke detectors and more people should use more rechargables more of the time. It would be useful if the start up expenses weren't so high.

I've just watched for sales. The last NiMH batteries I bought were 2000mah AA cells that cost me $6.99 for four. I bought four packs. Prior to that, I stocked up at under $1 per AA from MCM electronics for 1800mah AA cells. But even Walmart has marked down four-packs of Rayovac NiMH cells to $8.97. That's the same cost as three packs of alkalines but that extra cost is paid for quickly.

Sometimes I wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea to have some sort of tax or fee on disposable batteries -- maybe like the bottle refund in some states. You could pay an extra five or ten cents and you'd get it back when you bring the batteries to be recycled.

That's something that I've considered also and I think that it's a good idea, though I'd prefer to see the lower forms of batteries (e.g., alkaline and, worse yet, carbon zinc) be eliminated. Some of the people who use disposables are those who can least afford to. They buy $3 packs of batteries five times per month rather than paying $9 for rechargeables and a one-time cost for a charger. They are the same people who buy a half-sized container of soap because it costs 30% less than the bigger size.

I can hear the free marketers all having heart attacks now, but it's less draconian (and more practical) than completely outlawing disposables, but still encourages use of rechargeables.

Capitalism doesn't deal with the "tragedy of the commons" and that's why we need government intervention. It's why we don't let industry decide how much to pollute. It's why localities have made recycling mandatory. The free market can do a lot to get you a better price on headphones or bananas, but, if anything, it tends to encourage spoilage of the environment (since it's usually easier and cheaper to pollute than not).

It would also be useful if more devices were calibrated for rechargeables. My palm gives me about four hours of heavy use before it starts flashing the annoying "your battery is dying" screen with a rechargeable, compared with 12 hours with an alkaline (generic store brand, because I'll pay a bit extra for high quality rechargeables, but I'm a cheap bastard when it comes to disposables).

If you have a true PalmOS, you might be able to calibrate it for the rechargeables.

I'm pretty sure it's because the Palm uses the delivered voltage to decide when the battery is dying, and the rechargeables drop below that point much faster, relative to their total life, than the akalines.

You are correct -- because they start out at a lower nominal voltage of 1.2-1.25.

I know people who gave up on putting rechargeables in their palms because they hated changing batteries three times as often. Twice as often is less annoying, and there's no reason for changing the batteries three times as often except for the calibration of the device. Other devices have this same problem. Maybe it's time to start placing a bit of pressure on the manufacturers?

Amen! All devices that can use standard (A,AA,AAA,AAAA,C,D,9V) disposable batteries should capable of using rechargea

Ummm, no, more than just the political right hate her guts. Anyone ever associated with the military hates her guts. Any (informed) patriotic American probably hates her guts.

Um, I used to be associated with the military. I'm more informed than most Americans (probably including yourself) and am pretty damn patriotic. I don't really want to refight the Vietnam war here, but the behavior of the U.S. government and military during that war towards those who chose to dissent was at least as shameful as what Jane Fonda did. That war, and the stupid "anyone who opposes our enemies is our friend, no matter how evil they are themselves" mentality still haunts America today. Like it or not, 9/11 happened because our illustrious leaders thought (and still think) that fomenting military coups in Guatemala, Iran, and Chile, helping Saddam Hussein against Iran, shipping weapons to Egyptian and Saudi dictators, etc, etc, etc is good foreign policy. Our leaders (of both Republicrat and Democan parties) speachify about all of the great things (capitalism, freedom) Amerika offers, but simply cannot grasp the hatred that those actions have provoked among the have-nots of the world who hear the speaches but end up on the receiving end of American bullets when they try and put those American ideals into practice in their own nations. It is sometimes very hard to be a patriotic American, and Fonda's actions have to be seen in that light.

If you don't, refresh your memory here. OK? Good.

Basically, a Tennessee postal inspector brought charges against a BBS in San Jose in a Tennessee court, and managed to get the BBS shut down because it violated Tennessee community standards. This, despite the fact that the BBS was located on the other side of the country. There was a lot of outrage at the time, for obvious reasons -- you don't want to hold an Internet site to the most restrictive standards found anywhere in the world.

It seems to me that this AOL thing is just about the same. Indict the spammers in their home state; that's where they're located. It would be nice to hold them to the most restrictive standards possible, but it would also be kind of unfair.

Someone would suggest a project and take the responsibility for a part of it, others would sign up for other elements, and proceeding this way we got a remarkable amount of work done, including reports on X-Stop, Cyberpatrol, Bess and other censorware products.

Even though two of us were attorneys -- Jim and myself -- we never incorporated the group or wrote a charter or any contracts among ourselves. Mike Sims was obliging enough to register the domain, just as other members paid for press releases and the other incidental expenses which came along. Mike also served as webmaster of the censorware.org site and did substantial work for the group, including writing contributions to several of the reports and lead authorship of at least one. Seth was the source of our decrypted censorware blacklists and managed many technical tasks, but later felt he had to leave the group because of the increasing prospects of a lawsuit, particularly under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). After Seth left the group, the remaining five continued.

Robert Frost said that "nothing gold can stay," and the Censorware Project was no exception. Over the summer of 2000, Mike Sims' reaction to a perceived slight from Jim Tyre was to take the site down for a week. He sent us mail at the time saying something like "The Censorware Project is now closed." I replied to him that, given that the group was a collective and we all had an interest in its work product, the domain, and the goodwill it had achieved, the decision was not his to make. Sims did not reply.

After Seth created a partial, text, mirror, Mike put the site back up a week later without explaining, let alone apologizing for, his actions. Given his continuing failure to answer any email from me (and I think from others) and the overall signs that Sims thought the group was exclusively his, I wrote him several emails requesting that he turn the domain over to Jamie or Bennett, as I felt we could no longer trust him to administer it. We also found out during that time that important email from people trying to contact us, including members of the press, was not being answered by Sims, nor being forwarded to other members.

How would you feel if your webmaster maliciously took your web-site offline, then, when you demanded its return, put up a site attacking your company at your old URL?

Posted from the nero-online.org Troll Library

Following my work researching The Linux Gay Conspiracy, I am saddened to announced that I have discovered yet another orgy of perverted heterophobic values. My claim lies with the Slashdot mangement.

First, what kind of name is Slashdot? This is obviously a code word in the homosexual community for something perverted.
Slashdot is an anagram of LAD SHOTS, which refers to Slashdot's pedophile agenda and T ASS HOLD, which refers to some gay sexual posistion that Michael and CmdrTaco enjoy.

The 'editors' of Slashdot, as they call themselves, are homosexual swingers with cleverly disguised nicknames.

CmdrTaco (aka "Rob" Malda) is the "head" honcho of Slashdot. Cmdr obviously refers to his desire to dominate over his gay partners, and Taco is obviously a sly reference to his colon. Update: It is well known that Taco claims to be married to Kate Fent. No one really believes that 'she' is actually his wife. We have proof that this 'she' is actually a he. It turns out that Kathleen Fent is an anagram of KHAN FELT EN ET. So this Kate of his is really Khan who "felt in it". I will not describe what that means as I am sure you can imagine yourself.Update From AC: Kate Fent = FAT TEEN, K.

Michael Sims, who goes as 'michael' on Slashdot, is a well known thug and advancer of homosexual agenda. His name is an anagram of ASS CHIME MIL which obviously refers to his desire to flaunt his lower organ.Update: It turns out that Michael Sims is also an anagram of ASS LICE, HMM, I?. That is so sick that words cannot describe the horror.

Father Randy "Pudge" O'Day is Slashdot's Mac propagandist. Macintosh computers are well known as the Gay computer due to their homosexual colors and stylings. An email exchange between 'Pudge' and Apple HQ have been leaked by a former Apple employee who converted to heterosexuality. These two emails (here and here) have been repeatedly posted on Slashdot, but are quickly censored by Slashdot moderators who do not want the public to know about its agenda.Update form Subject Line Troll - it appears the O'Day is just a few letter changes away from I'm Gay and rhymes with O'Day. Is anyone surprised that Mr. Pudge is a fudge packing Mac hippie?

Simoniker, a recent addition to Slashdot has been uncovered as Mr. Goatse himself. Simoniker is a frequent poster to the Games section of Slashdot, obviously because he enjoies modded versions of Quake 3 and UT2K3 as a homosexual warrior who likes to 'overcome' his opponents with his exagerated sized love member. In addition, Simoniker is an anagram of KEN I RIM SO (Ken is probably his current boyfriend) and MEN I IRK SO (which refers to his frustratingly troubled gay relationships, probably due to his rather large asshole).Update from AC: I'M ON ERIK'S... "Eriks what? We can only imagine" -AC.

CowboyNeal. How could I forget him? CowboyNeal is Slashdot's Poll Editor. His rampant homosexuality is obvious. "Cowboy Kneel" is what his name actually means. His odd sexuality needs no further explanation.

Please reply with additional information, contributions, and corrections. I will include any additional information and credit you with it in my further releases of this report.

Update: "Fist Sport" explained. (05/17/01)

It has come to my attention that the entire Linux community is a hotbed of so called 'alternative sexuality,' which includes anything from hedonistic orgies to homosexuality to pedophilia.

What better way of demonstrating this than by looking at the hidden messages contained within the names of some of Linux's most outspoken advocates:

Linus Torvalds is an anagram of SLIT ANUS OR VD 'L,' clearly referring to himself by the first initial.

Richard M. Stallman , spokespervert for the Gaysex is Not Unusual 'movement' is an anagram of MANS CRAM THRILL AD.

Alan Cox is barely an anagram of ANAL COX which is just so filthy and unchristian it unnerves me.

I'm sure that Eric S. Raymond, composer of the satanic homosexual propaganda diatribe The Cathedral and the Bizarre, [Buy At Amazon] is probably an anagram of something queer, but we don't need to look that far as we know he's always shoving a gun up some poor little boy's rectum. Update: Eric S. Raymond is actually an anagram for SECONDARY RIM and CORD IN MY ARSE. It just goes to show you that he is indeed queer.

Update the Second: It is also documented that Evil Sicko Gaymond is responsible for a nauseating piece of code called Fetchmail, which is obviously sinister sodomite slang for "Felch Male" - a disgusting practise. For those not in the know, "felching" is the act performed by two perverts wherein one sucks their own post-coital ejaculate out of the other's rectum. In fact, it appears that the dirty Linux faggots set out to undermine the good Republican institution of e-mail, turning it into "e-male."

As far as Richard "(cock)Master" Stallman goes, that filthy fudge-packer was actually quoted on leftist commie propaganda site Salon.com as saying the following:

RMS: "I've been resistant to the pressure to conform in any circumstance," he says. "It's about being able to question conventional wisdom," he asserts. "I believe in love, but not monogamy," he says plainly.

And this isn't a made up troll bullshit either! He actually stated this tripe, which makes it obvious that he is trying to politely say that he's a flaming homo slut!

Speaking about "flaming," who better to point out as a filthy chutney ferret than Slashdot's very own self-confessed pederast Jon Katz. Although an obvious deviant anagram cannot be found from his name, he has already confessed, nay boasted of the homosexual perversion of corrupting the innocence of young children. To quote from the article linked:

"I've got a rare kidney disease,' I told her. 'I have to go to the bathroom a lot. You can come with me if you want, but it takes a while. Is that okay with you? Do you want a note from my doctor?'

Is this why you were touching your penis in

In fact, it appears that the dirty Linux faggots set out to undermine the good Republican institution of e-mail, turning it into "e-male."

As far as Richard "(cock)Master" Stallman goes, that filthy fudge-packer was actually quoted on leftist commie propaganda site Salon.com as saying the following:

RMS: "I've been resistant to the pressure to conform in any circumstance," he says. "It's about being able to question conventional wisdom," he asserts. "I believe in love, but not monogamy," he says plainly.

And this isn't a made up troll bullshit either! He actually stated this tripe, which makes it obvious that he is trying to politely say that he's a flaming homo slut!

Speaking about "flaming," who better to point out as a filthy chutney ferret than Slashdot's very own self-confessed pederast Jon Katz. Although an obvious deviant anagram cannot be found from his name, he has already confessed, nay boasted of the homosexual perversion of corrupting the innocence of young children. To quote from the article linked:

"I've got a rare kidney disease,' I told her. 'I have to go to the bathroom a lot. You can come with me if you want, but it takes a while. Is that okay with you? Do you want a note from my doctor?'

Is this why you were touching your penis in

It has come to my attention that the entire Linux community is a hotbed of so called 'alternative sexuality,' which includes anything from hedonistic orgies to homosexuality to pedophilia.

What better way of demonstrating this than by looking at the hidden messages contained within the names of some of Linux's most outspoken advocates:

Linus Torvalds is an anagram of SLIT ANUS OR VD 'L,' clearly referring to himself by the first initial.

Richard M. Stallman , spokespervert for the Gaysex is Not Unusual 'movement' is an anagram of MANS CRAM THRILL AD.

Alan Cox is barely an anagram of ANAL COX which is just so filthy and unchristian it unnerves me.

I'm sure that Eric S. Raymond, composer of the satanic homosexual propaganda diatribe The Cathedral and the Bizarre, [Buy At Amazon] is probably an anagram of something queer, but we don't need to look that far as we know he's always shoving a gun up some poor little boy's rectum. Update: Eric S. Raymond is actually an anagram for SECONDARY RIM and CORD IN MY ARSE. It just goes to show you that he is indeed queer.

Update the Second: It is also documented that Evil Sicko Gaymond is responsible for a nauseating piece of code called Fetchmail, which is obviously sinister sodomite slang for "Felch Male" - a disgusting practise.

Following my work researching The Linux Gay Conspiracy, I am saddened to announced that I have discovered yet another orgy of perverted heterophobic values. My claim lies with the Slashdot mangement.

First, what kind of name is Slashdot? This is obviously a code word in the homosexual community for something perverted.
Slashdot is an anagram of LAD SHOTS, which refers to Slashdot's pedophile agenda and T ASS HOLD, which refers to some gay sexual posistion that Michael and CmdrTaco enjoy.

The 'editors' of Slashdot, as they call themselves, are homosexual swingers with cleverly disguised nicknames.

CmdrTaco (aka "Rob" Malda) is the "head" honcho of Slashdot. Cmdr obviously refers to his desire to dominate over his gay partners, and Taco is obviously a sly reference to his colon. Update: It is well known that Taco claims to be married to Kate Fent. No one really believes that 'she' is actually his wife. We have proof that this 'she' is actually a he. It turns out that Kathleen Fent is an anagram of KHAN FELT EN ET. So this Kate of his is really Khan who "felt in it". I will not describe what that means as I am sure you can imagine yourself.Update From AC: Kate Fent = FAT TEEN, K.

Michael Sims, who goes as 'michael' on Slashdot, is a well known thug and advancer of homosexual agenda. His name is an anagram of ASS CHIME MIL which obviously refers to his desire to flaunt his lower organ.Update: It turns out that Michael Sims is also an anagram of ASS LICE, HMM, I?. That is so sick that words cannot describe the horror.

Father Randy "Pudge" O'Day is Slashdot's Mac propagandist. Macintosh computers are well known as the Gay computer due to their homosexual colors and stylings. An email exchange between 'Pudge' and Apple HQ have been leaked by a former Apple employee who converted to heterosexuality. These two emails (here and here) have been repeatedly posted on Slashdot, but are quickly censored by Slashdot moderators who do not want the public to know about its agenda.Update form Subject Line Troll - it appears the O'Day is just a few letter changes away from I'm Gay and rhymes with O'Day. Is anyone surprised that Mr. Pudge is a fudge packing Mac hippie?

Simoniker, a recent addition to Slashdot has been uncovered as Mr. Goatse himself. Simoniker is a frequent poster to the Games section of Slashdot, obviously because he enjoies modded versions of Quake 3 and UT2K3 as a homosexual warrior who likes to 'overcome' his opponents with his exagerated sized love member. In addition, Simoniker is an anagram of KEN I RIM SO (Ken is probably his current boyfriend) and MEN I IRK SO (which refers to his frustratingly troubled gay relationships, probably due to his rather large asshole).Update from AC: I'M ON ERIK'S... "Eriks what? We can only imagine" -AC.

CowboyNeal. How could I forget him? CowboyNeal is Slashdot's Poll Editor. His rampant homosexuality is obvious. "Cowboy Kneel" is what his name actually means. His odd sexuality needs no further explanation.

Please reply with additional information, contributions, and corrections. I will include any additional information and credit you with it in my further releases of this report.

With out you gettng all worked up and insulting I still don't understand why you can't just not click on the link and not read it?

It's a joke about lawyers sure it is. There are to many lawyers. Do your part.

I don't reply to ACs

Eweek (I have a subscription) seems to go out of it's way to be Pro M$ and just enought pro SCO to not piss off Linux folks if they can help it. Linux sells advertisments but not as much as M$ buys per issue. The usually whore to the advertisers. I imagine if IBM told Eweek it was going to drop it's advertising is it didn't give the truth in the issue better coverage SCO would be getting any free press. It's not like coverage of SCO is throwing any light on the facts of the case.

At this point I have pretty much given up on anyone in Utah as being ethical or moral. Nothing but the absence of sound from anyone in Utah but SCO since Novel said SCO doesn't owne the copyright to SCO Unix.
