Your friend is obviously a Terror-Arab and must be stopped from spreading such blatant un-American propaganda. Why not give him a gift-wrapped bomb tomorrow morning?
Pathetic
Wow. it's sad that Cheap Software dorks are desperate enough to write fake news stories in which
"Santa" adopts Open Sores software at "the North Pole." I mean, I can understand your
desire to escape the real world, a world in which Linux can't beat Windows for ease-of-use
and popular appeal, can't beat MacOS for multimedia, and can't beat UNIX for power and
reliability. But causing others to doubt your sanity isn't going to help your lame little
cause.
This must be a difficult time of year for Cheap Software bigots. Those of you who aren't
naive college students have no money to buy gifts, and surely no gifts will be given
to the hostile, irritable, unhygienic "developers" (ha!) whom we have to thank for such
monuments of shit as Mozilla and SourceForge. I'd be sad, too, having to watch highly-paid
Closed Source developers stroll down the street, arms laden with expensive gifts, surrounded
by beautiful women.
And speaking of women, I just remembered that Valentine's Day is only two months away! You
think that you'll be able to find a girlfriend by then, hog? Or will you spend another year
cold and alone, trying to convince yourself that playing Counter-Strike with 15-year-old
illiterates is really better than hot, greasy sex?
Perhaps you should look to homosexuality, the traditional sexual outlet of the Cheap
Software "developer." Sure, it may hurt a bit, and your ass may leak blood and semen for 72
hours afterward, but anything is better than being alone on Christmas... isn't it?
Anyway, as I was saying, if making up fairy tales about Santa and Linux helps you survive
another holiday season, fine. But it isn't helping your cause, and it isn't improving the
real world's outlook on Cheap Software. Why not get some exercise, take a shower, put on some
nice clothes, buy (or steal) some expensive chocolates and wine, walk down to your nearest
singles bar, and... slit your wrists in the bathroom? Thanks!
You're referring to metric honks, of course. In the English honk system, there are 12 bits to a honk, 22 honks to a trisplat, and 36 trisplats to an ultrahonk.
Yeah, foreigner, but this is the fuckin' US of A, the birthplace of technology and civilization. We're accustomed to having copious bandwidth, and lowering ourselves to Eurotrash or Pacific-dim levels is as painful for us as it must be for you to bask in our eternal glory. I think you should shut your backwoods-cockney ass up and feel grateful that America was generous enough to share its many inventions--computers, automobiles, televisions, books, music, art, and edible food--with you heathens. It must be so difficult to develop national pride when your country is so lame. Tell me, how does it feel to be the national equivalent of the inner-city ghetto teenage mother, sucking welfare from a hard-working Americans who have been moved to pity by your squalor?
Why don't you just kill yourself this Christmas?

Slaker, if you're using a "homegrown" RAID enclosure (a full-tower chassis full of disks) check out the SilentDrive from Molex. (A name you've been trusting to your power needs for years, right?;-)
Each SilentDrive requires a 5.25" bay, so if you're using a real hotswap RAID enclosure, rackmount or otherwise, the SilentDrive is not an option. In that case, I'd invest in a rack cabinet and glue acoustic foam tiles over the entire surface.;-)
Foreign agents aren't "script kiddies." Script kiddies are those who use premade tools to "hack" without skill or knowledge. I'd rather equate Stinger-armed Afghans to script kiddies.
Shut the fuck up, you newbie luser scum. Shouldn't you be rebooting your Windows box, or maybe be down at the mall, hanging out at Babbage's? You "l337 g4m3r" wannabe-geeks make me sick. "Kronik Gamer:" no skill, no knowledge, no life, no purpose. I'd rather hang out with Jon Katz than meet you.
Prisoners of Faggotry, Gays in Action: you are not forgotten. Timothy will stand by you in your darkest hour. Or maybe he'll be kneeling, but he'll be there, trust me.
Slashback: pretty fucking gay. Timmah, if you were looking to legitimize your place on the Slashdot "staff," why didn't you try fixing some of Slash's many bugs? Oh, sorry, there's that whole "he can't even hack Perl" thing... anyway, Slashback reminds me of "flashback" sitcom episodes, in that it's a obvious attempt to sustain advertising revenue during slow days without providing any additional content. (And it's not like Slashdot has any content to begin with! The whole site is ancient link reposts with uneducated commentary from the biggest bigots in the Cheap Software "community!")
I'll bet that after taking a crap, Timothy scoops the feces out of the toilet and sucks on them like candy, in order to extract all possible nutritional value from his Ramen noodles and Dew. That's what Slashback is, recycled garbage. You think that your Ramen will taste better the second time, Timmah? No? Then why force us to ingest Slashdot's past week of lameness all over again?

Your account was created before the cap was existed. Low UID accounts (such as my single non-troll account;-) retain their high (>50) karma, but if you're modded down below 50, you can't rise above the cap again.
Newer accounts will never get above 50.
The karma cap is ultragay. The worst part is that a capped user can post a comment which is modded to +5, then later modded down to +4, and end up losing a point of karma.
But, hey, this is Slashdot, what do you expect? With broken URL filters, broken ASCII art filters, poor session management, and uneducated megalomaniacal "editors" reposting old stories and banning dissenters, karma is the least of our problems. Malda and the luser krew have actually managed to make this stupid little Perl script less useful over the past three years. It's no wonder that so many people use PHP-Nuke instead.
Bush's fault, for instigating the Terror-Arab conflict and necessitating the need to the FBI to spy on the American public like a Chinese shopkeeper. "Hey! You! You is terrorist! Put down shampoo get out my store!" If you can't make the connection, I'll help. "Magic Lanterns" are found in the popular Disney cartoon Aladdin. And Aladdin is a Terror-Arab! (I'd sure love to fuck Jasmine, though, if I weren't happily married to Psycho^H^H^H^H^HTipper. Oh, and if Jasmine were real.)
I'll bet you wish now that you had counted all the votes back in December! "But we can't count illegal votes," you said. Well now your precious Bushy Wushy has gotten the World Trade Center blown up and started a war! Don't you remember? Who was it that forged the Jew-Arab peace accord? It was my pal Mr. Clinton! A Democrat! Democrats are friendly, cuddly teddybears who stand up for peace! Republicans are greedy, oil-soaked warmongers who would gladly kill New Yorkers in the name of higher oil prices!
Sorry, sorry, I got a little carried away. My point is that America needs a leader, someone who will give peace a chance. Someone who was once defeated but returns triumphantly, like Jesus. And who has a beard... like Jesus. And who casts his foes and his wife Tipper into a lake of fire... like, er, Jesus. I'm trying to be subtle here, but since some of you fucktards can't even use ballots without having brain spasms, I'll make myself clear: Vote Gore in 2004, or the blood of murdered Americans will be on your hands!
Remember how I told you last year about how Bush's familial ties to Big Oil would prevent him from objectively defining a MidEast policy? Well I was right! Bush hasn't been in office for a year, and he's already instigated the breakdown of the Israeli/Palestinian peace program! Bush is also responsible for the recent Terror-Arab attacks on the US! Don't be fooled by the small drops in gasoline prices; this is the calm before the storm, the storm being Bush's inevitable return to Iraq to finish what his wussy father couldn't finish ten years ago. Oil prices will skyrocket, and Bush will be sitting in the Oval Office, laughing and snorting ("snortimigating") Claritin off of Jenna's baby-smooth ass.
I only hope that America has learned its lesson by 2004... why? Oh, no reason...
This is nothing new. Hydrogen-powered automobiles have existed for decades. You don't hear about them because of the oil lobbies. (No bullshit conspiracy theories, just plain truth.) Several automobile makers have introduced dual gasoline/hydrogen and diesel/hydrogen autos in Europe, but they never seem ti be marketed in the US. Part of this is because of the aforementioned oil companies, but the fact that petrol is so ungodly expensive in Europe is another factor.
Hydrogen power is simply amazing. I haven't read the details of Chrysler's model yet, but generally the only byproducts of the entire process are steam (just water vapor!) and heat. Excess heat can be used, along with regenerative braking, to recharge the fuel cells. Yes, you heard me, the rechargers can be integrated into the vehicle, and all you need is electricity. Imagine pulling up to a parking meter and plugging into to recharge your BMW just like your Nokia.
(Another refueling scenario would have you purchase pluggable fuel cartridges from gas stations. This scenario is more likely to reach the mainstream, because the oil companies could take a bigger cut by producing and recycling fuel cells.)
The primary marketing advantage of hydrogen-powered vehicles over other alternative energy vehicles is power. Almost all electric autos suffer from poor acceleration, and feel like PowerWheels toys compared to the gas-guzzling SUVs and sports-style cars that so many Americans love. Hydrogen-powered vehicles, though, feel just as powerful as gasoline/diesel vehicles, and will perform very similarly.
The only real marketing problem will be the public's misconceptions about hydrogen. Except a good number of pure bullshit, pure FUD "hindenburg" smear campaigns from our friends in Big Oil.
So there you have it. It's proven tech. It's enviromentally friendly. It's powerful. And once it's in widespread use, it'll be cheap. Write your Congressman, start a hydrogen fansite, do whatever it takes to get the word out. Hydrogen shouldn't have to be tomorrow's solution when it can work today.
(Yes, I've put my spare time to good use in the last year. I don't want to let out the secret just yet, but hydrogen power will definitely play a part in a certain someone's 2004 Presidential Campaign. I won't say who I'm talking about, but he's bearded and sexy and not Richard Stallman!)
