You dont have to blacklist the URL. Just strip all url's from any post tagged as TROLL.
Should take care of the issue.
Agreed, I like my -1 Goatse mod idea but your idea would work.. How about instead of stripping the link totally it just strips the html link bit out and leaves the text so if someone wants to see a gaping hole they still can manually copy/paste.
Could not someone at slashdot write a small script to blacklist url's that have been flagged troll? I'll do it if you pay me a slave wage...
Could? Sure. Should? Every GNAA post would be linking to the BBC or Google or Slashdot itself just to get them blacklisted. Some sort of manually put together blacklist would be feasible for sites that do actual damage (but not for crap like Goatse - everyone on the planet must be bored of it by now but it's hardly going to hurt you)
I think you give the fucktards too much credit. Firstly it wouldn't have to prevent a user from clicking it, maybe just a friendly warning. Second why do we, the "tech coward" ever need to link using tinyurl.com. Thirdly I think it could be done in a way that would avoid the problem you note.
Honestly it would make a fun project that could be marketed to other forums... Yes Slashdot overlords you could get a larger bonus this year if you force your tech slaves to get on this... I assure you we are talking 7 figure profits here...
Once again could not someone at slashdot write a small script to blacklist url's that have been flagged troll? I'll do it if you pay me a slave wage...
1. Figure out a way to modify DNA to deliberately REDUCE the intelligence of future humans 2. Use electric stimulation just long enough to let them learn their robot-like tasks. 3. Turn off the juice before they figure out how to read or speak. 4. PROFIT!
As we know from Asian garment factories, people can be cheaper than robots. They last longer and require minimal maintenance -- so long as they are treated as a disposable commodity. When they break, throw them away. Until now, the ability to use humans as robots has been limited to the third world. Considering how easy it is to bribe Congress, the legalization of programmable slaves is only a few campaign contributions away. For a few more dollars, they'll subsidize the industry!
The price of what? Was there a market? Buyers? I thought google maps sat view was free??? Is there any straw you Space Nutters won't grasp at to pretend space is some kind of exciting marketing opportunity?
I was just getting ready to jump into my time machine and go back to kill Sun Yat-sen. How could they have known?
You know, other than some rather sordid and scandalous private affairs, Dr. Sun was alright. Now if we're talking about Glorious Chairman Mou or Messianic Generalissimo Chiang, I am all for it.
Does this mean we can point the thing at the moon where we previously landed and finally get pictures of the lander so all those "we didn't go to the moon!" crazies will finally be quiet?
Plutonium does not exist naturally on earth, it's extremely toxic
Urban myth, you can eat several milligrams of plutonium and it will not kill you. It is very poorly absorbed from the digestive tract. Only airborne dust is very toxic, but it settles very quickly (plutonium is heavy).
wait... several milligrams?????? that doesn't sound very safe too me...
Now, go, and hand in your tinfoil hat. Any self-respecting tinfoil hat wearer should know that thanks to the "Commerce Clause", there is nothing left up to the states.
I'll only turn it over to the president and then only when he shows me his birth certificate and denounces Allah and takes Christ as his one and only friend with benefits.
Permanence would be lightspeed exactly at the horizon. Still no information getting out though. Very insidious backup system, as the hole slowly absorbs stuff, grows, and eats your data.
So it's just like ntbackup.exe with a data set that exceeds 500GB!!!
Slashdot Mirror
How do they expect to stop him from getting a job somewhere the court has no jurisdiction, precisely?
Zombie-gram...
...the safety inspectors arrived.
Yes, I hear he was a Trojan and had seen this sort of thing before....

Are you sure about that? Some people may have been scarred for life.
A -1 goatse mod would be a start.. but nooooo change is bad unless it slows down the site or is shiny...

This horse only holds 12 people. The original Trojan horse held 30 people, according to Wikipedia.
So it doesn't exactly sound "life-sized" to me.
People where smaller back then and folded up easier...
They used it to sneak drugs into the school...
Could this be placed in marijuana grow houses to harness some of the wasted energy to power a small meth lab?
Meth labs power themselves... with fire...

That's basically the plot to "Battlefield Earth".
All journeys begin with a single step...
up in voltage...

We just really like straw... U MAD?
Now I can finally read and understand all those "Learn programming in 24 hours" books I've purchased over the years...
You know, other than some rather sordid and scandalous private affairs, Dr. Sun was alright. Now if we're talking about Glorious Chairman Mou or Messianic Generalissimo Chiang, I am all for it.
He rapes my wife three years from now...

Won't work... One word....GNU/GIMP...
Oh look, someone revived the Clipper dBASE compiler / Pascal syntax.
No, someone revived the the ALGOL 58 syntax (yes, that is 1958) . Everything old will be new again ...
What do you mean revive it? I still use Turbo Pascal... I mean http://www.freepascal.org/
One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison.
Poetic.
Someone should mod this up.
I would but Larry Ellison won't let me...

Mr Anderson, what good is a full head of hair if you're now completely impotent...
Declaration of Independence
Yes but the Declaration of Independence was a Terrorist document and thankfully we don't support terrorism in this country. Mostly....
Now, go, and hand in your tinfoil hat. Any self-respecting tinfoil hat wearer should know that thanks to the "Commerce Clause", there is nothing left up to the states.
I'll only turn it over to the president and then only when he shows me his birth certificate and denounces Allah and takes Christ as his one and only friend with benefits.
