Freenet Project More Stable, In Need
An anonymous reader writes "The Freenet Project is asking for donations to help keep their main programmer, Matthew Toseland. After a long time, finally Freenet, software which 'lets you publish and obtain information on the Internet without fear of censorship' is working fine (and fast) again, since their overload problems are almost completely fixed. They even plan to write a paper about the overload problems. If you want to try, be sure to run the latest stable or unstable snapshot."
for my free Kevin. There was supposed to be a free Kevin. I'm not donating anything else until I get my free Kevin.
Moderators, please have some fucking sense of humour.
Your pizza just the way you ought to have it.
If they want money maybe they should change the name to PAYnet..... get it, PAYnet!!!
Its FREEnet but you should PAY because they need money or something..
"Hey everyone: Freenet is finally able to cope with the load they've ben having. Let's go post it on slashdot."
An anonymous reader? Hah! I've traced the pirate back to the ip 234.4.119.181! So much for slashdot anonymity! Which just goes to show...
You should have used FreeNet[tm].

They should rename it NoSuchThingAsAFreeLunchNet Project.
I am also in need of a donation for Free 'Net. Yes thats right, with and small paypal donation you can provide me with free cable Internet access! With your donation you will recieve one picture* of me using the Internet, and a monthly status update on my browsing expierence. Sure you can mod me down and ignore this post, but that doesn't do anything to help the problem of us who pay our own bills.

is freenet free as in beer or free as in speech or free as in free base or free as in free bsd or free as in free bird or free as free lance or free as in free bsd?
It is also about as fast as the web was with Netscape Gold and a 14.4 modem.

Oh, and your ex told me about that last Christmas before she left you. You totally deserve it, you fucker. And what the hell were you doing with the owls in that picture? There's all this glare coming off the ice sculpture.
I already pay $34.95 a month for my internet. Why would I want to pay more money for a free one?
'Same speed C but faster'
WHOA! 500MB? Big spender!
it's wankers like you that force programmers with ADHD like myself to set up a hidden secure tunnel to my home machine through your nazi firewall just so i can follow a slashdot link.
us programmers are badmouthing you to management behind your back (and we're never going to invite you to lunch with the real engineers). tread lightly.
I'm the project's one and only paid employee.
/.? Get back to work, man!
