Top 500 Supercomputer List Released
sundling writes "The heavily anticipated Top 500 Supercomputer list has been released. There is a Sevenfold increase in AMD Opteron processors on the list. Two sections of an IBM prototype took spots in the top 10 and the famous Apple cluster didn't make the list, because it was out of service for hardware upgrades. When complete, the new IBM cluster is sure to take the top spot from the Earth Simulator."

Gadgets For The Elimination Of Dogs is a division of ECFA (Euthenasia for Canus Familourous Association). The GFTEOD/ECFA would like you to do one thing - KILL A DOG. By KILLING A DOG, you will ELIMINATE one USELESSLY RESPIRATING animal from this planet. Are you TIRED of having your TAXES increased? Humane Societies cost our country over $100 million annually. By eliminating DOGS, this money can EDUCATE OUR KIDS. OVERPOPULATION of DOGS is RAPANT in this country. Take a stand! Help rid this INFESTATION. KILL A DOG TODAY!!!!
Have you ever stepped in DOG DOO-DOO
Are you MAD?
Do you KILL DOGS?
Are you a MAD DOG KILLER?
If you answered "YES" to any of the above questions the ECFA (Euthenasia for Canus Familourous Association) is for you! Why change your sexual lifestyle or change your skin color to join an EVIL ORGANIZATION when you can simply INCREASE OUR SUPPLY OF O2! Did you know that DOGS turn BENEFICIAL O2 into CO2 simply to gain their energy to bark, drool, and howl? They ACTUALLY BOND their carbon TO OUR OXYGEN SUPPLY!!! One dog can waste 2 moles of O2 PER HOUR! This country has MANY UNWANTED, ABANDONED DOGS that WE ARE PAYING MONEY TO KEEP ALIVE. We are FEEDING them our food supply while making the homeless STARVE! By using a Dog Killing Gadget, a dog can be turned into beneficial food, helping us all. We let children go hungry yet feed our **UNWANTED** dogs like royalty.
Do you own a dog? Are you tired of its mess? Then get it euthanized. Euthanasia is a painless way for a dog to... terminate. However, it can be too expensive to buy these drugs for the LARGE NUMBER of DOGS in the HUMANE SOCIETIES. It is thus proposed that these dogs be turned into food for the homeless.

Props to all my short and greasy anus-dwelling jedi niggas!
no i didn't RTFA (i'm at work, can't browse the web) ... does it run linux??
1. practice clicking
2. get a real fast computer so your clicks are "faster", maybe post an "ask slashdot" about how to silence your mouse so
you don't have to hear the clicks.
3. OMG imagine a beowulf clust...
4. get job at IBM to use their prototype
5. take a break.... play DOOM III on longhorn with the other top 5 super computer guys and laugh at all the n00bs who can't play. Possibly overclock and argue with other guys over who's processor is best and how with cry to mum with a crushed core.
6. use ultra fast clicking ability to get first post on slashdot
7. make comment about FRIST PISS, FROM TEH GNNA WIT TEH HOT GRITS OF PORTMAN, misleading link to a goatse.cx-like picture.
8. make subsequent post about first one and your super computer in the 1,2,3,?, profit style, using each step to rehash old cliches and have a rage about cliches THEN post from another account and say "I for one welcome our new cliche hating overlords" so you can karma whore.
9. Blame it all on microsoft, run an RPM distro, then gentoo cause it's 3j33t, then realise linux is full of n00bs and become a snobby BSD guy, then realise you are too old for it all and go to apple then look in the mirror and realise you are running a commercial OS and are way away from your hacker roots and start using linux again as a "old mentor" type and maybe trying and "unite da clans" (braveheart)... fail and look like an aging hippy as you wave a sign with a hand-drawn penguin on it against laws which have been greased by lobby money.
9. lose hope
10. Re-start trolling as an intellectual troll (not with GNAA) and use the power of anonymity to show weaknesses in cliches of sites like slashdot.
11. make up a back-story, lie about your age, technical prowess and history playing DOOM III on longhorn in a super computer lab at IBM
12. ????
13. FUCK OFF AND DIE ALL YOU STINKING KARMA WHORES, come up with some new material for GODS sake. Moderators; there is a phrase that goes "don't feed the trolls", well feed THIS troll as a reminder to all that stupid beowulf jokes etc. etc. from logged-in people to karma whore are crap and they never exhibit the creativity that should be required to get +5 in anything.
14. When I was little I used to wonder why my parents were against me swearing, because I had heard them swear on occasion. Then I realised why; because if you do it all the time it devalues it for when you REALLY need it. +5 insightful or funny doesn't need to be a civilisation changing event. But some of the crap cliche no-effort karma whoring that goes on is just a disgrace, and everyone is responsible because everyone mods. Trolls like GNAA use this slack moderation to "harvest" (as they put it) karma. Their objective is to harvest karma for their accounts while adding no "value" to slashdot. Now, while I don't love slashdot, and have no reason to encourage people to make money for it by making it a better place, you could mod down the cliched dicks and save me having to read them.
14. YHBT YHL FOAD N00Bs
thank you, I'll be here all week, try the veal
