    As far as I can understand, if I subscribe to Slashdot and pay the fee, I will get rid of all the banner ads.

    However, will I still be subjected to blatant ads like this "article" and the ones in the Related Links slashbox?!

    Yellow Dog was there first ! I thought their distro was up and running on the PPC quite some time back....I guess they forgot the hard-disk part :) The MacOS of the future.... a Linux/BSD variant with a unified snazzy theme (ala redhat's bluecurve) .

    Man, what a morning.

    First this cute, lithe raven haired oriental girl on the bus gave me a hard-on and now, at work, my cock is itching for some interracial action with the hot Kara (AKA: dynamic developer).

    I need to get laid...

    How do you think grammatically challenged people such as yourself will fare? What does culturally self descructing involve? Who are the new masters, and how do they fit into your delusion? What is the average annual rainfall of the Amazon Basin?

    Here's a free memory aid I came up with:

    "If your use of lose and loose is loose you lose."

    Unfortunately, I've found that in some regions of the English-speaking world little to no distinction is made in the pronunciation between "lose" and "loose", so it may have limited value to those with the most need.
