Slashdot Mirror
Do You Have a PC Posture?
prostoalex writes "PC Magazine takes a look at 'PC posture' and the problems associated with the workstyles of those who spend hours in front of the PC. They talk about proper sitting styles, the erroneous name of 'wrist rest,' monitor height and the need for periodic exercises to help alleviate potential repetitive stress injuries."
Slashdot is an amusing way to stay on top of news stories and hear other people's opinions about them. That's it. That's all. Why take it so seriously?
Breakfast served all day!
Yeah, but not as tired as I am of spammers like you. Four spams to the same article? That's pretty lame.
Also, your site looks like some kind of silly troll hangout (judging by your About page and your forum). You can't expect anyone to take your grievances seriously with such an ugly site with unprofessional information and focus, and seedy members.
Here's an idea: You have a web site. Why not turn it into what you think Slashdot should be, instead of some worthless hive of negativity? Oh, that's right: it's easier to whine about something than to do it yourself.
Arguing about vi versus Emacs is like arguing whether it's better to make fire by rubbing sticks or banging rocks.
Are you tired of slashdot's editors?
Yes, they make mistakes. Don't we all?

Okay. It looks like a site that was intentionally designed to tick people off. Oh wait - that's what trolls do.
While you're there, check out the database tool here.
I will admit - that's a neat piece of work. It's a shame it is only being used to break the moderation system.
That's right. Moderation is broken because the likes of you intentionally try to break it to prove a point.
With the database tool, you can quickly gain karma by reposting highly-moderated slashdot posts, and secure the +1 bonus for future jihad operations.
Submarine troll. You collect karma for a while and then burn it off trolling. Should your "jihad operations" reach the respectable, positive contributors who browse at higher thresholds, your use of "jihad" will only rally them against you.
By decreasing
People come to Slashdot for the comments, where ideas are discussed. If you want to promote journalistic integrity as your "About Us" page says, why not engage in educated discussion yourself, rather than spamming the site with rhetoric suggestive of terrorism.
you can force
Also on your site, you say that editors are unqualified. That would mean incompetent, not malicious.
Also, how would it "force" anything? The only thing it would "force" them to do would be to make the system even more complicated, even less transparent, making things senselessly inconvenient. Isn't that what email spammers did to our inboxes? How about botnet owners and OS security?
and have a great time doing it!
Not only a submarine troll and a twister of facts, but also no conscience. You want to berate the editors earlier in the post for "ethical lapses", but you yourself have no ethics. Have you considered becoming a lawyer? You could be the next Jack Thompson!
Thank you for your support,
You're welcome.

Two things wrong with that. You choose "jihad" just so you can provoke us, when you could have come up with a word with a much more positive connotation, such as "crusade". Then, by calling yourself 31337, you hint at your narcissistic need to elevate yourself in front of others. In fact, the entire post is there just to get attention, which hints at histrionism as well. Go see a psychiatrist.
To sum up, you have what would have been a noble cause, but you ruined it by giving it a negative name, a hypocritical and inappropriate means of delivering that cause, and multiple personality disorders, not to mention the fact that this means so much to you that you find the need to disrupt discussion and tell us all about it. Believe me, I'm doing you a favor by telling you to shut down your site and go get help and a life.
