Have you read Isaac Asimov's "The Billiard Ball"? The moral of that story is that even in space, you still weigh something -- albeit near zero, but not so close that 2% of it is zero.:)
>Ok you do realize that CN airs anime? Bebop, Gundam, Outlaw Star, and all those shows on the new Sat. Adult Swim. You make it sound as if they don't show anime...
It's DUBBED, you loon. Dubbed anime are usually edited and sound horrible, etc. The Internation Channel shows subtitled anime, which is a nice option, but you only get to see the kind they approve.
>OK and here is your list filtered through reality:
>1. Waste time on the web searching through a bunch of fanboy pages.
And reading Slashdot is what?
>2. Get berated and made fun of because you aren't an anime expert.
Don't be stupid.
>3. Spend money >4. Or break the law
Those are two options in buying ANYTHING
>5. Ditto >6. See 2
>I would rather flip on the TV and watch Adult Swim Action than deal with a bunch of Simpsons Comic Book Guys.
I think you must be trolling, because most anime fans actually don't like the Simpsons all that much. Or maybe you're making this up as you go along.
Scooby Doo is nice, but which one are you talking about? The only good one is the original. I suppose you could say the one with the little kids is adequate, but the movies -- ye gods! The whole point of Scooby-Doo is that the monsters aren't real! I don't know what sort of mindless loser came up with the plot for Zombie Island and other assorted stupidities, but the point of the show (besides the comedy) has gone totally over their heads.
Wow, look at me, I'm getting all worked up over a cartoon. I guess I could just not watch CN, just like how I don't watch all the other TV channels besides C-SPAN and the International channel. Hey, can't hurt to try...
Suuuuure. And there's an "element of manipulation" in putting an advertisement right above the topic buttons in Slashdot. Come on, how would YOU like to seperate the ads from the results?
Excuse me, but why is Nickelodeon going to get rid of its best shows? (OK, so Hey Arnold is mush, but Spongebob is an excellent kids' show, and Invader Zim can be compared to anime.) They'd better have something REALLY BIG coming in for them to deprive kids of their favorite cartoons.
Yesterday, a program called "ExPlorer" kept on crashing when I shut down my computer, and a small, unremovable box would appear in the corner of my screen at random times. I suspected a virus, but my software would not detect anything. So, I went to work myself. When my computer started crashing and my Internet connection stopped working, I opened up System Information and located a second explorer.exe in a hidden directory called Explorer.
After a few reboots, I managed to stop the program from running, and then examined its raw assembly code. From the plaintext I could decipher, it seemed to be calling some website called "2001-007.com". Renaming the file to virus.exe (in anticipation), I rebooted again, found my connection working, and visited the site.
2001-007.com is another name for ClickTillUWin, the website that comes with Limewire. Insert your own annoyed reaction here. The smegheads at ClickTillUWin had designed spyware that acted in all effect like subseven or some worm.
So, if you think you've got a virus on your Windows computer but can't detect it with the usual methods, don't panic; get Ad-aware. You'll be better off for it.
YOU ARE NOT JAPANESE! STOP FOOLING YOURSELF. SAYING STUPID THINGS DOES NOT MAKE YOU JAPANESE. YOU WILL NEVER BE JAPANESE.
Actually, if I was Japanese, I'd probably hate it because they promote conformism heavily in their schools (as far as I've heard from transfer students). It's better to be an otaku than an actual Nippon-jin, I'll tell you.

What if it actually was a beta release? Not sure if it'd make much difference, but...
It's pronounced Yur-In-Us. I pity da fool.

Read the Slashdot summary -- it implies portscanning would be bad.
You know, now that you've posted that, I'll bet AOL *will* buy Red Hat. It's not like it's a major purchase or anything.

Think of the CHILDREN, people, of the CHILDREN!
PLEASE stop CAPITALIZING random WORDS! Thank you!
Why is this "Redundant"? I am seriously beginning to doubt whether the Slashdot moderation system works.

Can we get a program to see the output in SETI@home? Maybe it'll at least give us a hint as to the encoded message.

They probably have the Tom Bombadil scene on the DVD, and took it out in the movie just to get us to buy the DVD. See, Big Business at work!
No, but that's a good idea, I'll have to remember that the next time I submit a link.
Slashdotters are too lazy to take Japanese? And they actually believe they can get Japanese girlfriends? Dude, I'm moving to Kuro5hin
