Slashdot Mirror


Bad eBay Experience Spurs Internet Manhunt

An anonymous reader submitted an entertaining story running on the Chicago Trib that discusses a fraudulent eBay dealer, and the tale of his victims tracking him down. Nothing super technical, just amusing to read and remember that while sometimes the crooks get away, sometimes they become the hunted. My favorite part is when they call his mom. Man I'd love to do that to people who DoS us :)

    I have an application that installs with a script. The script requires WISH scripting. Does anyone know what WISH scripting is and how i make it some my redhat 7.2 box can run it? Searches of google show me that the word 'wish' is greatly used in the english language ;)

    I would think it would be pretty hard to DoS Slashdot, since it has enough bandwidth to handle all the user load and still be a pretty fast site.

    analyze the word homophobe, fear of homosexuals. How does being heterosexual and not liking people randomly responding to my posts with perverse comments like that make me afraid of homosexuals?

    Homophobia is a word that is bandied about way to much. Eww, that person doesnt approve of homsexuality he's a homophobe. Eww, that person doesn't think gay people should be allowed to get married or have the significant others of a homosexual get insurance benefits, she must be a homophobe!

    Come on, get over it. Also get a life, you just make yourself sound dumb posting comments like that.

    Thirty minutes isn't long enough to actually do anything though. That's like if some rapist came up to you and said "I'm gunna fuck you till you love me." You wouldn't feel any better, just because he hadn't started fucking you yet.

    Hah! I wish I had an official connection. I live in Texas and just fell in love with it during college. I now live in Denton and happily drink all the Shiner I can. I have yet to make a field-trip to the brewery, but hopefully soon...

  11. someone stole my credit card by austad · · Score: 2, Offtopic

    Someone stole my credit card number awhile back and decided to purchase 3 plane tickets with it. Luckily the airline called me right away and asked if it was OK since the people went to the counter with the card number WRITTEN DOWN on paper.

    The airline was nice enough to give me their names though, and I used several sites to get their phone numbers, addresses, aerial photos of their houses, and 2 of their actual photos. I printed all of the info out and I'm planning on sending it to them with a note that says they better watch who they fuck with. I should probably make a nice death scene with photoshop and their pictures in it also.

    Or, I could just call my friend who works on a horse ranch, and have him get me a head from a dead horse, and I could send it to them. :)
