FreeBSD 5.0 Delayed One Year

Satai writes: "FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE has been delayed a full year, until November of 2002. The reasons included a lack of support for SMPng - including a developer fall-off ratio of 15 to 1 - a desire to finish the PowerPC/Sparc64/IA64 architectures, and a general desire to robustly test the additions. The economic downturn even makes an appearance in the announcement."

    From ABCNews.com:

    JonKatz, movie reviewer of the popular Linux website slashdot.com, recently announced he has reached a new low.

    "I'm going to have sex with 14-year-old boys now, they're much cuter." says Katz, a known pedophile.

    Prior to this release, it was widely speculated that Katz was only interested in molesting 15-year-old boys.

    "Well, I like the older ones too, but they're better when they're still nice and smooth." continued Katz.

    When asked if he feared prosecution for statutory rape, Katz just reponded with a laugh.

    "My boys love me and would never turn on me like that!" chuckled Katz.

    However, Katz wouldn't reveal the names of his underaged lovers upon further questioning. The state is currently investigating.

  4. I couldn't make it, sorry. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    It was Thanksgiving Day last year and the stores downtown were a mob scene. SUV's careened around the streets in search of free parking while dysfunctional suburban families attempted to complete their Christmas shopping in a day. If I had only know what the day was gong to bring me I never would have left the house.

    I arrived with my sister and her husband at the book store around 1:00 after a large chicken and veggie bento at a neighboring stand. I was stuffed and felt the "box cars" moving to make room. We split up to peruse different sections and I felt a slight urge to evacuate my bowels. But, I was halfway through special order line at this point, and didn't want to lose my place. I ignored the mounting pressure behind my bunghole. Ten minutes later, with the pressure increasing, I reached the front of the line to place my order. I immediately scurried to the second floor to relive myself.

    The elevators were a mess. I took the stairs instead. Between flights something happened in my gut and the pressure doubled causing extreme discomfort. I hurried up the last flight, hopping in a contorted fashion to keep my butt-cheeks together, and made my way to the men's room. Then things got really bad.

    There was a line out the door. I was incredulous. At least a dozen people were waiting to relieve themselves. I stood there for a second and then realized it was no time for manners and rushed in front of the others. I apologized to them, and from the looks on their faces, they realized it was a serious situation. By this point the pressure had become almost painful. When I get to the stall (one freakin stall!) I find it occupied by a father and a little kid who is puking up a storm. I am not making this up. In retrospect, I realize I should have thrown them out of the stall and released the fury. But for some reason, I rushed out in search of another venue.

    I struggled to the ground floor, bent over and hobbled, ran out the door, and decided my best bet was going to the office at which I work two blocks away. I wish I could articulate how awful that walk was. Needless to say my sphincter started to fail as I entered the building (thank god I remembered the key code) and I soiled myself a bit before camping down again. You need those swipe cards to enter the bathrooms in this building, and I didn't have mine, but there was a first floor bathroom that is usually open to the public. As I'm sure you already guessed, it was locked. The pain was excruciating by this time and I just said fuck it. I shuffled into the stairwell--knowing that this is where it had to happen. As I opened the door, the first thing I saw was the security camera, so I pulled my jacket over my head, dropped my pants and boxers, and let out a single explosive volley that lasted close to 30 seconds. I sat there, with my back against the wall, feeling a sense of relief I never hope to feel again. I nearly lost consciousness. Then, the reality of the situation came back to me. If security caught me I'd be done. How the hell could I explain this to my boss? I ran out of there as hard as I could.

    Amazingly, I never heard a word about the incident and met my sister and brother-in-law ten minutes later for a coffee.

    Typical - and people wonder why BSD is dying.

    You can't take criticism... there can't be anything wrong with FreeBSD because it is magically wonderful and coated in BSD-fairy dust. Bollocks

    Linux, on the other hand, is vital and alive with people fixing and improving it. Change your ways or you are going the way of the dinosaurs.
