New York, NY - GNAA (Gay Nigger Association of America) today announced acquisition of The SCO Group for $26.9 million in stock and $40 million in gay niggers.
GNAA today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the intellectual property and technology assets of The SCO Group, a leading provider of Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt, based in Lindon, Utah. GNAA's acquisition of SCO technology will help GNAA sign up more members worldwide. In addition to developing new solutions, GNAA will use SCO engineering expertise and technology to enhance the GNAA member services.
"I'd love to see these GNAA types slowly consumed by millions of swarming microbes and converted into harmless and useful biochemicals." said an anonymous slashdot poster, blinded by the GNAA success in achieving first post on a popular geek news website, slashdot.org.
"This GNAA shit is getting out of hand. Slashdot needs troll filters. Or better yet a crap flood mod that I can exclude from my browsing. Seriously, a good troll is art, what you dumb fucks are doing is just plain stupid." said spacecowboy420.
macewan, on linuxquestions said "Thanks for that link to the SCO quotes page. My guess is that they want to be bought out. Hrm, think they want GNAA to buy them??"
After careful consideration and debate, GNAA board of directors agreed to purchase 6,426,600 preferred shares and 113,102 common shares (the equivalent of 150,803 ADSs) of SCO, for an aggregate consideration of approximately US$26.9 million and approximately $40 million for gay niggers that were working in Lindon, Utah offices of The SCO Group.
If all goes well, the final decision is to be expected shortly, followed by transfer of most SCO niggers from their Lindon, UT offices to the GNAA Headquarters in New York.

Slashdot has now a very large (>700000) number of users. So in the article discussion one is often faced with the fact that you don't really know with what persons you are discussing. This leads very often to misunderstandings and very large flame threads.
However, CmdrTacos innovative programming skills have provided the Slashdot community with the tools to change that. Indeed, the "Zoo" features enable us to create a decent Slashdot census - a source of information where you can get all details of users needed in a serious and sensible discussion.
Of course, the Slashdot census data doesn't pop up from zero tempature vaccum like innocent electrons, we have to do some work to get it.
For this purpose this census coordination account was created. Any Slashdot user who want to participate in the Slashdot census endevour has just to create a census account of his favorite topic like "Linux users", "Mozilla users", "Security experts", "Quantum physicists". See e.g. this BSD user registration account. Then he chooses this coordination account as a friend and is in turn made a friend of this coordination account. As a next step he just marks all users fitting into his census scheme as friends.
Summa summarum gives this a perfect census of the whole slashdot population.
Important notes for getting a useful census:

There's at least one moderator who disagrees with your estimation of things :).
I agree with you, I also expected the indispensable mood-relieving Zombo.COM.
Trolling using another account since 2005.
Apple makes actual products that are in many respects better than whatever is available out there.
More people are getting sick of Windows, and OSX is becoming an increasingly more usable and productive OS, versus just running creativity applications.
I'd rather run OSX than Windows, and I'd rather run OSX than Linux.
"The phrase "In Soviet Russia..." is a signature of the jokes of Russian comedian Yakov Smirnoff"
i thought this was a simpsons reference from when he buys the car and it says " in soviet russia car drives you!"
although they probably stole it from him.
