  1. Re:Music section? on Off-The-Shelf Online Music Stores · · Score: 1

    I think the original poster meant a section like YRO, BSD, Apple, Games, etc. Because as you pointed out, yes, there is a TOPIC for music. The sections are the things on the left, right underneath your personal preferences.

  2. Re:Some mirrors: on Winamp 2 + Winamp 3 = Winamp 5! · · Score: 1

    Well, those'll be really useful in case AOL's servers can't handle the load.

  3. Re:Umm..k? on RSA-576 Factored · · Score: 1

    Suicidal Tendencies spells it Cyco, not Syco. As in "Born to be Cyco." So the guy's still a bad speller.

  4. Re:Red Hat / Fedora confusion on Interview with Jeremy Hogan of Red Hat · · Score: 1
    Why would we license evey employee of the University for RHEL when only a small fraction actually use it?
    Why not just buy licenses for only the employees of the university who use RHEL? Wouldn't Red Hat only know of the employees who you buy licenses for? They only know what you tell them. It only makes sense to buy licenses for the users who'll use the product. That's how every OS I'm aware of operates in regard to licensing.
  5. Re:Top 10 lists suck... on Top 10 Personal Computers · · Score: 1

    I have been out-nerded. You, sir, are the victor. I stand down.

  6. K-RAD! on Top 10 Personal Computers · · Score: 1

    Nice use of the word K-Rad. That sort of lost popularity as the Internet got more popular. Thanks for reminding me of it.

  7. Re:Real Men of Genius on New 20" iMac and Dual 1.8GHz PowerMac G5 · · Score: 1

    And you spelled it wrong both times. :)
    Not San Franciso, San Francisco.

  8. Re:Don't update Panther Beta on Mac OS X Update 10.3.1 Available · · Score: 1

    I admire your tenacity. Still beta testing, after the final product has come out? You're hard core.

  9. Re:Trust them on Rules for Teenage Internet Access? · · Score: 1

    Way to go. I have got to get out of Vermont, everything here's expensive. Gentrification's a motherfucker.

  10. Re:Trust them on Rules for Teenage Internet Access? · · Score: 1

    How the fuck did you buy a house at 19 (or 18 for that matter) and simultaneously be going through college? Did you win the lottery? I find it hard to believe you could secure a loan as a student. Even if the house was bought in an auction (100 year old house, it's certainly possible) you'd need a lot of cash to refurbish the thing.

  11. Re:Trust them on Rules for Teenage Internet Access? · · Score: 1

    Smoking a joint is socially acceptable in my social life. In fact, if someone were to bitch and moan about someone toking up, they'd be the ones making the social gaffe.

    I'm 25... it might be an age thing.

  12. Re:Graphical? on First Look at Debian's Next Generation Installer · · Score: 1

    Windows XP and 2000 have this annoying feature of doing a semi-graphical text mode. What I mean by this, is they do something weird with my video card so that it only shows a weird, unreadable mess of lines. Upgrading my BIOS helped to fix this, but for a while, I either had to swap video cards or install NT4 or Debian. I fully understand and respect Debian's choice to have a graphical installer.

  13. Re:From one of those Lay People . . . on The Elegant Universe, Now Available Online · · Score: 1

    I think the average Slashdot reader is a lamer. I know I am!

  14. Re:Checked the size of the game yet? on Star Wars - Knights of The Old Republic PC Gold! · · Score: 1

    That's the same argument people used when CD-ROM drives were a new thing. You just have to bite the bullet and get with the new technology.

  15. Oops! on Napster and Gnutella Measurements · · Score: 1

    I first read that headline as "Napster and Genitalia Measurements". I guess that doesn't make much sense at all.

  16. Re:Such taxation is unconstitutional on Ban on Internet Access Tax Dies in Senate · · Score: 1

    RTFA. It's not sales tax, it's Internet access tax. Two separate issues.

  17. Re:voting! on Memory Hole Un-Redacts Redacted DOJ Memo · · Score: 1

    It's not paranoia if it's actually happening!

  18. Re:Geez... on Scamming Spammer Hooks the Wrong Person · · Score: 1

    Yeah, except this lady's getting a criminal record, whereas the people getting busted for swapping mp3s are just getting a civil tort filed against them. If you get a felony, your life is a lot shittier. Harder to get a job, you better believe it. And in some places you can't vote if you're a felon.

  19. Re:US Gov should buy google. (not a troll) on Google Rebuffs Microsoft Takeover Bid · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    You're a retard. You would be unemployable without Google? Learn a skill or two. And it's not like there aren't other search engines. I hope you were exaggerating, otherwise maybe you don't belong in the IT industry. To think that your entire repertoire of employable abilities are based on Google. Unless you work there, that's sad.

  20. Re:Shares on eBay? on Google Rebuffs Microsoft Takeover Bid · · Score: 1

    Yeah, they had that idea before you thought of it. Check out the article that was on Slashdot last week.

  21. Re:Bit player on Man Arrested in Australia Over Nigerian E-mail Scam · · Score: 1

    Why does that seem small? $1.5 million's a lot of money. Plus there was a few pieces of property and some automobiles. Where are you getting your numbers from that lead you to believe that this guy's small?

  22. Re:Well, it happens to be true. on Diebold Chases Links To Leaked Memos · · Score: 1

    Sometimes the help comes a little further down the road. For example, if your friend's house burns down and you donate wood to him, don't expect that he'll have a house built the next day.

  23. Re:Sure I would on Google Considering IPO Auction Online · · Score: 1

    That really fucked my brain up. I thought you were talking about Legos originally, until I read it a few times. Of course, I was listening to the Butthole Surfers while drunk, also, so there's something right there too. Kudos for flipping my brain in my head!

  24. Re:This reminds me of a Great Hack! on AOL Hacks Subscribers' Computers · · Score: 1

    I wish you weren't already modded to +5, that's the funniest thing I've read today.

  25. Re:the last line says it all on Comparing Online Music Offerings · · Score: 2

    Yes, the last line does say it all, which is why it was quoted in the article writeup. I can read, don't bother parroting Slashdot's writeup for me. Who modded this insightful?
