Posted by Cliff on from the snowballs-have-now-been-reported-in-hell dept.

leverage asks: "I juste wonder why Microsoft is talking about upgrading machines to Linux! See the Product Support Article, here." Did someone genetically engineer flying pigs when I wasn't looking?

    Squid is a HTTP/FTP/HTTPS proxy for Unix, but whether you knew that or not, you thought it would be funny, in some juvenile way, to imply that it was something obscene. I suspect that you are one of the "CHILDREN who read this page". If not, then you obviously haven't mentally progressed past that stage and should seek professional help. Grow up, pervert.

    I liked it. In fact, Slashdot has had the only April Fools jokes I've encountered this year. Is it 'cos I'm getting older, my friends just aren't as keen to play japes on me?

    Thanks for the nice attempt to troll. BTW, FYI & FWIW:

    PING 3286301978 (195.224.253.26) from 200.100.50.25 : 56(84) bytes of data.

    26.253.224.195.in-addr.arpa name = inetc26.inetc.net.

    So: 195.224.253.26 == inetc26.inetc.net. HAND.
