  1. Re:Linus? "Peace"? That twat? LMAO! on Linus Torvalds For Nobel Peace Prize? · · Score: 1

    exactly!

  2. Linus for a nobel peace prize? on Linus Torvalds For Nobel Peace Prize? · · Score: 1

    I thought Nobel laureates aren't arrogant bastards that get a hard on from dismissing people with good intentions?

  3. this is a SERIOUS problem on Recovering the Slums of the Internet? · · Score: 1

    that SORBS bastard wanted to charge me $50 to take my new block of IPs off his/her/its list!

    hah, good luck SORBS is out of business now!

    my sentiments exaclty!

  5. Re:indeed on Some Early Adopters Stung By Ubuntu's Karmic Koala · · Score: 0, Troll

    try and transfer a 100+ meg file across the network. also put your laptop into standby and then wake it up. see if it doesn't produce an error. also try and play a video (with pretty much any player) for longer than 2 minutes without issues arising. shall I go on?

  6. Re:indeed on Some Early Adopters Stung By Ubuntu's Karmic Koala · · Score: -1, Troll

    mine are mostly networking-related with some acpi issues and some XVideo problems

  7. indeed on Some Early Adopters Stung By Ubuntu's Karmic Koala · · Score: 4, Insightful

    me being one of the early adopters that got stung
    I haven't seen so many bugs and reboots since the days of windows 95

  8. no on Ubuntu 9.10 Officially Released · · Score: 0, Redundant

    it's not

  9. Re:Wolfram Alpha on New Company Seeks to Bring Semantic Context To Numbers · · Score: 1

    interesting, isn't it? after all the bragging about it's endless scientific prowess...

  10. this guy has issues on RMS Says "Software As a Service" Is Non-free · · Score: 1, Insightful

    definitely. been following his rants and moaning for 15-20 years now and heÂs been at it all along. IÂm not saying heÂs a commie, I have nothing against commies, IÂm saying heÂs sick, definitely, certifiably sick.

    please stop posting stories about RMS. there are whole hospital wards designed to care for people like that.

  11. hm on Interview With the Author of "Mastering Cat" · · Score: 0, Troll

    your april fools jokes are getting dumber and dumber every year

  12. what a bunch of whiners on Verizon's Aggressive New Spam Filter Causing Problems · · Score: 0, Troll

    nothing is ever good for you, now is it? spam is no good, no spam is no good either. what the hell do you want then? well how about you get rich and get yourself a personal assistant with huge titts that'll sift through all your emails and make you coffee too so you don't have to whine about it anymore?

  13. cool tune on Download-only Single Becomes UK Number One · · Score: 1

    indeed. follows rules, sounds melodic, ok production.

    and uk being the birthplace of good music I don't see what all you liverless-geeks brag on about?

  14. Re:top 20 doesn't include the most important item on 1001 Islamic Inventions · · Score: 1

    I have just re-read the title which says "islamic" inventions so bagpipes don't count. there are christians and all sorts of other religions in persia too. (actually I think islam is a fairly recent religion in persia)

  15. top 20 doesn't include the most important item on 1001 Islamic Inventions · · Score: 1

    Bagpipes! (persia)

    but then the independent is an english paper so they wouldn't care, now would they?
    oh bugger...

  16. that's not nice on Jurassic Beavers Challenge Current Mammal Theories · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    accusing a whole nation of being forgerers is highly irresponsible at best and very stupid and ignorant.

    because all americans are killers, right?

  17. um on Polite Cell Phones · · Score: 1

    It's called pervasive computing and this subject has been brought up on slashdot about a month ago.

  18. pervasive computing on Computers That Feel our Mood · · Score: 1

    I don't see how Frauhofner can claim something as theirs when researchers at CMU have been working on PERVASIVE COMPUTING for quite some time now, with published works dating back to 2000. They've even done some impressive implementations and that's all I'm going to say on that matter...

  19. erm... on Torvalds Unveils New Linux Control System · · Score: 1

    Well, being a bit of a git himself, I don't see what all the fuss is about.

  20. What licensing changes? on XFree86 4.4 Released · · Score: 1

    The fact that you have to supply the 3 paragraphs somewhere on your distribution CD is a problem now?

    Am I the only one to think that slashdot is turning into a bit of a joke lately?

  21. WHAT YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE on How Not To Ship Computers · · Score: 1, Funny

    Maybe next time you should put "ANTHRAX CAPSULES - SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE" on the box and see if it arrives in tact? Or just put "Osama" in the "Sender:" box on the UPS form...

  22. Do not (!) start with the basics. on Tips for Teaching Seniors About the Internet? · · Score: 3

    Don't forget that old one "You don't know how to make kids, dad.." My mom is 70 and we're at the stage where I send her instructions by email on how to fix things that my little niece messes up (email/browser/dialup settings, new drivers, whatnot). Old guys also tend to take notes and, believe you me, their notes do actually help them (unlike when I take notes, I can't make out heads or tails of it later). Also tell them to hold the mouse steady when doing a double-click - I've tried and tried so many times explaining it to my mom untill I told her "hold the mouse steady" and immediately she did it no probs. If it's not working then set the timeout on a double-click to something slightly bigger. And that's that...

  23. What on Hyperreality: The U.S-China Standoff · · Score: 1

    What _you_ my dear friend don't seem to have included in your text above is the fact that americans (actually irish, british, french and spanish leftovers) so not realise is that there's about 1300000000 chinese and about the same number (minus the leading 1) of americans. What you also seem to have chosen to conveniently forget is the moment where that very same conservative president (we prefer to call them IQ-deficient individuals in the blob that you refer to as "the rest of the world") told "Blob, (i.e. the rest of the world) screw you if I'm going to lower my gas emissions".

    Well, maybe your "New York Times" should print in big, bold, times new roman

    "America - screw you if I'm going to release those soldiers"

    or perhaps

    "Who's laughing now?"

    or maybe...

    "He who dares, Rodders, he who dares..."

  24. Re:Clearly Not on Is "coke.ch" A Violation of Coca-Cola's (tm)? · · Score: 1

    No matey, the fact that www.coke.ch doesn't exist doesn't mean it's not being "parked".
