University of Twente Back Online
UncleH writes "University of Twente is back online again, after the University NOC burned to ashes on wednesday. This also means that the much discussed University Campus network is also fully available again. The university already had internet access through a masquerading box in the network of their neighbours. Big hurrah for the network engineers of the University, large applause for the network engineers of SURFnet for restoring the 10Gbps Point of Presence within 36 hours after the fire."

Section One: Choosing Your Target
Like most successful trollers, I have found that choosing the best target is the first step towards creating a good trollerism. This may include singling out an OSS freak, someone who plays Everquest any other eccentric. Pretty much anyone with 'geek' tendencies will suffice.
Section Two: Analysing Your Target
If you plan to troller your target, you need to define his or her weaknesses. The first step of this process was already taken care of when you chose your target based on being a 'geek'. You must now investigate the target of your trollerism in more depth. If your target has a username on a forum, there's a good chance a bio or homepage link is available to the troller (you) to read and be more comfortable. In a way, this is like "getting to know your enemy", except this schmuck is just a target of a trollerism, not your enemy LOLZ. Previous posts of the trollerism target are also a good reference; they provide valuable insight into the trollerism target. If there is no extra research to be done on a target, and unless the trollerism target is of exceptional magnitude characteristically in posts, it would be wise to resign efforts against the trollerism target.
Section Three: Troller The Fool
So you've got a lot of information on your target. It's time to proceed with the festivities. Compose your reply to the target in a manner which appears benign; your target begins reading your reply post. He or she doesn't realise you're going to be trollering them in a paragraph or so, because your reply is composed largely of relevant and pertinent information. When drawing near to the conclusion of the paragraph, try to work an insult to something which the trollering target finds dear. For example, if part of the post is about "Star Trek", call it Star Wars mid-way through and mention some studies you've heard before about science fiction fans. You'll be well into the task of really trollering this sucker by now. Continue to troller him or her by subtly attacking other favourite topics of the trolleree throught the reply.
Section Four: Wait for it.......
Ah, the big payoff of your trollering efforts. This sucker replies with a point-by-point rebuttal which at least doubles the length of your reply. If you obtain similar or smaller reply-to-rebuttal ratios, you're doing very well!
Section Five: The Classic Troller Final
So your trollerism target has replied, you've won the game. Submit yet another reply with "YHBT HAND" or an encoded variant; e.g. "Young Hens Bleed Thoroughly, Hold A Necklace Dear". This adds extra wit to your troller, because the trollerism target will be very upset after deciphering the riddle! Good luck trollering!
that was the biggest display of karma whoring i've ever seen

Section One: Choosing Your Target
Like most successful trollers, I have found that choosing the best target is the first step towards creating a good trollerism. This may include singling out an OSS freak, someone who plays Everquest any other eccentric. Pretty much anyone with 'geek' tendencies will suffice.
Section Two: Analysing Your Target
If you plan to troller your target, you need to define his or her weaknesses. The first step of this process was already taken care of when you chose your target based on being a 'geek'. You must now investigate the target of your trollerism in more depth. If your target has a username on a forum, there's a good chance a bio or homepage link is available to the troller (you) to read and be more comfortable. In a way, this is like "getting to know your enemy", except this schmuck is just a target of a trollerism, not your enemy LOLZ. Previous posts of the trollerism target are also a good reference; they provide valuable insight into the trollerism target. If there is no extra research to be done on a target, and unless the trollerism target is of exceptional magnitude characteristically in posts, it would be wise to resign efforts against the trollerism target.
Section Three: Troller The Fool
So you've got a lot of information on your target. It's time to proceed with the festivities. Compose your reply to the target in a manner which appears benign; your target begins reading your reply post. He or she doesn't realise you're going to be trollering them in a paragraph or so, because your reply is composed largely of relevant and pertinent information. When drawing near to the conclusion of the paragraph, try to work an insult to something which the trollering target finds dear. For example, if part of the post is about "Star Trek", call it Star Wars mid-way through and mention some studies you've heard before about science fiction fans. You'll be well into the task of really trollering this sucker by now. Continue to troller him or her by subtly attacking other favourite topics of the trolleree throught the reply.
Section Four: Wait for it.......
Ah, the big payoff of your trollering efforts. This sucker replies with a point-by-point rebuttal which at least doubles the length of your reply. If you obtain similar or smaller reply-to-rebuttal ratios, you're doing very well!
Section Five: The Classic Troller Final
So your trollerism target has replied, you've won the game. Submit yet another reply with "YHBT HAND" or an encoded variant; e.g. "Young Hens Bleed Thoroughly, Hold A Necklace Dear". This adds extra wit to your troller, because the trollerism target will be very upset after deciphering the riddle! Good luck trollering!

you could crapflood someone else's troll HOWTOs all day and night because you can't troll for shit.
I apologize for this off-topic posting which was submitted to the Slashdot editors, but which was rejected earlier today.
I believe that this story is very in line with the usual Slashdot fare, except that this story deals with hi-tech being used in a politically incorrect fashion.
I also believe that a public debate on the issues and actions discussed in this article is vital to the health of this country, and so therefore I am posting this article here.
If you are an American citizen, of whatever race, who is concerned with the future of America, then I ask you to Mod Up this post so that other are more likely to read it.
Thank you.
this Wired News story tells the story of the hi-tech being used by a group of tech-savvy ranchers in Arizona is using military technology to monitor and apprehend illegal immigrants crossing the border from Mexico into the United States.
Members of the group have spiked their land with thousands of motion sensors. They also use infrared tracking devices, global positioning systems, night vision goggles, radar and other gear to survey movement near the border.
