DoS Assaults Underway Against Spam Blocklists
Hiawatha writes "The same sort of denial of service attacks that drove spam blocklist Osirusoft off the Internet are battering many other blocklist services as well." Apparently spammers aren't going to sit by and let people try to ignore their unwanted pitches.
Everyone knows it is Microsoft and SCO working together. The spam sent to the open source community will surely destroy the Linux kernel programmers' productivity. Duh.
Maybe it's just me, but looking at the points that he has received for this post (which was interesting since I couldn't access the original)... a +1 mod was received, with a total of only 90% listed below.. what happened to the other 10%? Did the same MIT Mathematicians who SCO hired manage to get mod status here?
Given that God is infinite, and the Universe is also infinite, would you like some toast?
One day I'll go a full 24 hours without hearing 911. One day I'll go without hearing someone compare something to 911. I'll go a whole day whithout seeing a 911 bumber sticker or a sig line. I care about 911. I lived through 911. I mourned with the country on 911. But somehow I can't fuckin wait until that day comes and I make it 24 hours without hearing someone bring up 911.
because I have been enjoined by this Holy Office to abandon the false opinion which maintains that the Sun is the centre
Well, unless you had someone reading this out loud to you, I'm not to blame for you not going 24 hours without hearing 9/11. You know, if I had a history of bringing 9/11 into every conversation, I could see it being reasonable to complain. As it is, this is the first time I've even mentioned 9/11 on Slashdot, so a happy "screw you" to you sir.
One day I'll go a full 24 hours without seeing the word "fuck".
