Slashdot Mirror


XBox II Revealed, Maybe

aka-ed writes: "PC Format in the UK claims to have scooped the world with a look at Home Station, an apparent successor to XBox. A multimedia gateway that sits between you and that broadband window on the world, with MS the Gatekeeper. It looks cool, and it's a product of Satan! Who wants to be bad?" "Claims" is the operative word in the above. Update: 09/09 12:42 PM GMT by M : And it's even a duplicate story. Well, news is a little slow at zero-dark-thirty Sunday morning...

    And, more important, why Microsoft whoring (X-Box announcements, "Pocket PC good, Palm bad", any comment along the lines "Resistance is futile") is both considered a good idea for articles, and in comments?

    Slashdot wants to make things look more controversial? Well, it succeeded -- when I am sick of Microsoft and Microsoft-inspired idiocy at work, I look at Slashdot and see more Microsoft idiocy. I mean, ok, there was one announcement about HomeStation, people talked (and karma-whored) a lot about it, we have hard multiple times again why everyone except Microsoft supporters should just wrap himself in a sheet and slowly crawl to a cemetery because Microsoft will own everything, but why should we be subjected to this bullshit again?

    BLAME ADEQUACY

    Times have changed.
    The trolls are getting worse.
    They won't obey the admins,
    They just want to spam and curse!

    Should we blame the Geekizoid?
    Or Slashdot 2.3?
    Should we be blaming Kuro5hin's Rusty?

    No! Blame Adequacy!
    Blame Adequacy!
    With their flaming little whines,
    And trolling posts so full of lies!

    Blame Adequacy! Blame Adequacy!
    It's the trolls' brand new assult,
    And it's Adequacy's fault!

    Don't blame Slash,
    For my friend Jim,
    He went to Adequacy,
    And now he acts like Michael Sims!

    All my other friends,
    Would never have acted like rats,
    But now they're indistinguishable from Katz!

    Well, blame Adequacy!
    Blame Adequacy!
    It seems the trolls have gotten long,
    Since Adequacy came along!
    Blame Adequacy! Blame Adequacy!
    They're not even a cool website anyway.

    My friends were once the very very best of karma whores,
    But now they're ranting raving frothing trolling right-wing bores!

    Should we blame the spammers,
    Or those who moderate?
    Or should we sit around and masturbate?

    No way!

    Blame Adequacy! Blame Adequacy!
    Self-righteous trolling that we see,
    And that bitch "nakedac",

    Blame Adequacy,
    Shame on Adequacy,
    The nerds we must herd,
    The crap we must tap,
    The trolls at that place,
    Must all be erased,
    The fascists we see must all cease to be,
    Before somebody thinks of blaming me!
