  1. Attitude T-Shirt by ph43drus · · Score: 1 · on Y2K Rollover - Post Your Experiences Here!
    I'm wearing my Complete Y2K attitude T-Shirt to the New Years party I'm going to.

    It makes the bold statement about the gullability (with relation to computers) of the computer illiterate, and how easily they might have been fooled by this bug. In essence, it is my statement that nothing will happen, and if you think otherwise, poo on you.

    Merry Apocalypse y'all.

    Great idea... I know plenty of ppl that would love to have one of these. Maybe we could get thinkgeek or copyleft to sell 'em too.

    I ordered a bunch of shirts and whatnot for all my geeky friends - from my other geeky friends. ThinkGeek did a fabulous job getting things to me promptly and professionally.

  4. Re:Katz's book... by EricWright · · Score: 2 · on The Physics of Christmas
    Um... if it's about Jesse and Eric, it most definately isn't fiction. Two points: 1) an article from Rolling Stone about these guys was posted on Slashdot back in April. Here is a link to it. 2) If you had read to the bottom of the Think Geek page, where the specs of the book are, you'd see the genre is non-fiction

    My dad got me one of those Slashdot shirts over at Think Geek at Comdex, and got Rob and Jeff to sign it. It's pretty cool, and this being Slashdot, maybe I ought to start a bidding war on it at ebay....... : )

    And speaking of shirts, thinkgeek also has some cool S lashdot Fleece's but for $60, I don't think I'll be buying it.

  12. Some ideas. by splice42 · · Score: 1 · on Geek Christmas Ideas

    Here's some ideas for the geeks in us:

    1) A Happy Hacking Keyboard. A throwback to the Sun Type 3 keyboards, 60 keys, compatible with Macs and PCs.

    2) Victorinox Cybertool. Already suggested by many of you, the ultimate pocket knife to have around for us techies.

    3) Pretty much anything from thinkgeek.com. Great products, get the shooter glasses and play the unix drinking game :) Plus, they sell stuffed Tux penguins.

    4) Shirts from copyleft. Great ones there.

    Other nice gifts ideas from Sharper Image and Hotbox. Check out the infinity puzzle at the latter, seems very interesting.

    If you live in Europe, you should check out freepatents.org. The LPF site may be mostly news, but in Europe there is stuff happening. Software patents have not been introduced in the EU, but there is a danger that they will be. But it's not too late.

    Alternatively, you can buy Alan Cox's USPTO T-shirt at ThinkGeek.

  19. Moderate that UP by adimarco · · Score: 2 · on Yahoo Patents Dynamic Page Generator

    Right fscking on man :) My previous post covers basically the same points. We (the people ;) should be looking to do a major overhaul of the patent system in the coming years. It is becoming more of a hinderance than a help in its current incarnation.

    I'm sure serious discussions of this are already underway. Anyone got pointers or recommendations for these kinds of resources? I saw a link on an earlier post to a T-shirt designed by Alan Cox at www.thinkgeek.com which I found simply delicious :)

  22. There is a secure server there. by Latrell+Sprewell · · Score: 1 · on Steaming Heap of Quickies

    When I went to checkout just now at ThinkGeek, it sent me to a secure server page.

    "This is a secure document that uses a high-grade encryption key for U.S. domestic use only (RC4, 128-bit)."

    I don't know if there was one when you visited earlier, but there definitely is a https secure server right now.
