  1. IRC on Sir Tim Berners-Lee Lauded For Web Efforts · · Score: 5, Funny

    IMHO, they should have given the prize to Jarkko Oikarinen for creating IRC and totally screwing up my University studies.

  2. Re:How does this make open source look bad again? on Today's Windows Virus - MyDoom / Novarg · · Score: 1

    Just like the morning news told: "The virus attacks the website of SCO. SCO produces Unix, which is an opponent of Linux." (translated from Finnish, badly)

    So, the harm's being done already.

  3. Re:Tinfoil hats on Yet Another Big Solar Flare · · Score: 1
    Well, will tinfoil hats protect us from onslaught of solar flares? i have a whole stockpile.. $5.99 a piece, message me for details!
    Sorry, I cannot comprehend. Please try the oh-so-familiar "email -> spam filter -> junk folder" way of sending me interesting news on interesting products.
  4. Re:Bank notes on NYT on RFID · · Score: 1
    Yeah, unknowlingly carrying a counterfeit bill will get you sent to Guantanamo. Are you really that big of a git?
    That Guantamo part was a joke. If you couldn't get it without a smiley, you just couldn't. Chill out.
  5. Bank notes on NYT on RFID · · Score: 4, Insightful
    ...embedded in bank notes to foil money launderers and counterfeiters.

    Would microwaving (whatsoever) the tag in a bank note render the note unusable? Will shops also have machines for automatically alerting the local police if I try paying with one of the forged ones?

    What if I, without knowing it, carry such a note?

    Guantanamo calls.

  6. Re:/.'ed on Home-brewing a 1.2TB IDE to Firewire Monster · · Score: 1

    They're collectively trying to get more karma to this mysterious "Anonymous Coward" account. When it's time, tell them I told you.

  7. Re:/.'ed on Home-brewing a 1.2TB IDE to Firewire Monster · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    So, where are the photos? Are you just karma whoring without any real effort? Where is this world heading to?

  8. Re:yeah on Haunted Houses Explained: Infrasound · · Score: 1

    Even if you saw it on Discovery Channel, I didn't, and I haven't seen in mentioned anywhere else. So, if you've seen something, is it unreasonable to post it on Slashdot?

  9. Niagra on Power Outages Strike East Coast · · Score: 1
    The Niagra Mohawk power grid is overloaded
    I knew spam would finally get us. Another year and we're all typing "Viagra" instead of "Niagara".
  10. Linux vs. SCO on 9th Circuit Court Finds 'Thumbnailing' Fair Use · · Score: 1

    So, does this decision lead to those little Unix "thumbnails" in Linux kernel being legal?

  11. SQL Server on Tom's Hardware Looks At WinFS · · Score: 1
    a relational database to keep track of files

    Damn, so I have to buy Microsoft SQL Server and the Internet Connector License for something like $10.000 just to run Windows?

    They're after my money again.

  12. Re:it depends on the axis of the turn on A Blog With Unlimited Bandwidth (Beta 1.2) · · Score: 1
    Take a careful look:
    Oh, completely upside down? b5b, yep that is new but what the heck does it mean?
    So, do you really think you're helping this poor fellow with your axis twisting?
  13. Re:SHFS on Distributed Filesystems for Linux? · · Score: 1, Interesting
    This has some potential.
    As the web page states:
    "To say the truth, it is our work for Operating Systems course at Charles University. It is just hack, but works, at least for me :-)."

    Obviously LuFS has still more potential.
  14. Subject !speaks for itself on 2.5.65 On 32-way NUMA-Q with Preempt Enabled · · Score: 0
    I think the subject speaks for itself

    Comments like this make ignorant twats like myself /. the sites, as I'm one of those who don't understand all the cryptic subjects. Please drop short descriptions, even if things seem obvious to you.

    Thanks. And oh yes, it's been slashdotted already.

  15. 3... 2... 1... Slashdotted! on Mice Designed by Famous Anime Artists · · Score: 0

    I'd prefer an internal bookmarking mechanism for users that have logged in. That way I could do my share of not /.ing the servers, by checking the links afterwards and not right away. Nowadays it's so hard to remember what I was going to read and on which computer I bookmarked it in my browser.
