Star Ballz Trumps Lucas

Posted by timothy on from the shadow-knows dept.

baby_head_rush writes: "The company that created pr0n cartoon Star Ballz won in court. George Lucas and company lost their first bid to stop its sale. A judge with some common sense. There is 'little likelihood of confusion' between Star Wars and Star Ballz." Not for young eyes.

    Maybe it's because Episode I was so obscene?

    When ever me and my friends see a new anime pron we rent it and watch it, I'm a guy, but all my friends are girls. These movies are just so funny! Our favorite is the Cool Devices series, the first tape is by far the funniest!

    For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

    Taco can't "jizz up" the servers 'cause the server boxen are not at his home. They are colocated in a very safe place. To quote Rob himself:

    Slashdot's new co-location site is now at Andover.Net's own (pinky finger to the mouth) $1 million dedicated data center at the Exodus network facility in Waltham, Mass, which has the added advantage of being less than a 30 minute drive for most of our network admins -- so they don't have to fly cross-country to install machines. We have some racks sitting at Exodus. All boxes are networked together through a Cisco 6509 with 2 MSFCs and a Cisco 3500 so we can rearrange our internal network topology just by reconfiguring the switch. Internet connectivity to/from the outside world all flows through an Arrowpoint CS-800 switch which acts as both a firewall load balancer for the front end Web servers. It also so happens that Arrowpoint shares the same office building with Andover.Net in Acton so whenever we need Arrowpoint tech support we just walk upstairs and talk to the engineers.

    But you're right in principle. The servers are under lock-and-key just prevent them from getting "jizzed up" during TacoSnotting or whenever Anne Tomlinson visists.

    Seriously. Am I the only person here that thinks that material like this is unsuitable? Slashdot has now sunk to an all time low by displaying that on its site, let alone on the front page. Forget spelling, moderation or any other complaints that people have about this site - what about the under-18's or non-US citizens who may have just violated their country's laws by clicking that link? Not everybody's grasp of English is extensive enough to understand what pr0n or "not for young eyes" might mean.

    Yes, this article may have something to do with Star Wars and IP, but is something like this really news for nerds? Not all of us are obsessed with pornography and get our kicks out of cartoon characters of princess leia getting jiggy with mister biggy.

  6. Alyson Hannigan -- OMG! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    Thank you so much for those pics!

    Alyson's character has always been my favourite character in Buffy. Geeky, pretty and sometimes a bit dykish -- just the way I want it.
