Inside the Tuna Can

Posted by michael on from the chunk-light dept.

blackcoot writes "Now folks walking through MIT's Infinite Corridor get to play with the virtual fishies (they react based on sensor data). I don't know if this will end up looking much nicer than the fish tank that used to come with MS Plus back in the day, but anything that requires months of computation to calculate just the raw data is cool in my book."

    I saw tuna in the title and I had to comment I mean my extreme and frankly sometimes very ugly sexual practices make me a prime candidate for Tuna. I love if for breakfast, lunch, dinner or even for a snack. If yot too have sexual preferences for extreme BDSM then email me at webriot3@hotmail.com

  5. ESR by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Anyone notice how now that ESR has been fired from VA Software Corporation they don't post his essays anywhere?

    Slashdot completely snubbed his new article on the SCO v. IBM lawsuit.

    Is it self imposed censoship?

    Now that ESR is no longer need by VA to give it open source "street cred" have they decided to pull the plug on the "open source spokesman"?

    I won't miss ESR, i just think it's funny how fast VA Corporation will let ESR drop back into usenet kook obscurity now that their use for him has ended.

    Oh well that's what happens to sellouts i guess...

    Everything is paid for. Songs on the radio are paid for, newspaper articles are paid for, nothing gets on /. unless it's paid for.

    In a grocery store they're called slotting fees. FritoLay rents the shelf space that displays the Fritos. Every spot in the freezer case is rented space.

    Do radio stations play commercial ads for free? Do newspapers print features without being paid for that space?

    Nobody is paying for the space that ESR's articles take up, so they don't appear, and he isn't going to fork over the cash himself, he's not as rich as Esther Dyson.

    And you thought reporters got space because they're articles were worth reading. You silly boy.
