Geeks In Asia Use Clever Hacks To Get Slashdot
Daedius writes "My comrade Hugh Perkins is living in Asia and he has been without reliable internet connectivity for many days. He uses l33t hacks to get his daily dose of Slashdot in desperate times." From the posting: "The Taiwan earthquake has brought telecommunications in the Taiwan/Hong Kong region to a standstill. I am living in Shenzhen and am unable to read Slashdot directly for several days. Gmail and Google have privileged bandwidth and local servers and both continue to work perfectly from the region. Could there be some way to use Google or Gmail to read Slashdot? A solution was to upload an executable to my web hosting in America that would receive zipped executables by email, execute them, then email me the results."
I'm sure all the people and companies that pay for that privileged bandwidth are very happy that it is being used for something as important as /.
"The Glorius Workers Communist Website of Slashdot", That should get it past the censors.
``Promiscuity and Windows must go hand in hand (bad joke there, anyone?)''
Is that why *nix users never get laid?
Please correct me if I got my facts wrong.
