  1. Sounds good to me. on HP And Bruce Perens · · Score: 1

    Isn't HP supposed to be replacing HP/UX with Linux?

    Isn't that why they were supporting Itanium in the first place?

    Is Slashdot getting as sensationalist as ZD-Net?

    I mean, really, people, this is a perfectly sane article about one of the pillars of our Open Source community getting a job where he can guide the strategy of yet another Unix distribution. We should be happy for him.

    Why don't we all stand up?

  2. Doesn't matter... on Ozone Hole Will Heal, Say British Scientists · · Score: 2

    That's only after the predicted nuclear winter, and the fallout from WW IV...

    Actually, predicting the future on a scale like this is *really* stupid.

  3. Sheeit... on Intel's Itanium Processor Explained · · Score: 2

    Real cache memory?

    Dolla' dolla' bills, y'all!

  4. Re:The Real Anne Marie on French Judge Demands Yahoo Censor Auctions · · Score: 2

    Wow, that post looks awfully familiar.

    I wonder where I've seen it before.

    Give me a minute... I know this one...

    Also, I feel it is my duty to note that LittleNicky is an impostor: the real Anne Marie has UID #239347. :)

    No he's not, but thanks for remembering!

    I haven't trolled in a while; lately, it's been hard to compete with the real Bruce Perens!

  6. Re:Paging Bob Metcalfe ... on Xerox Trying To Sell PARC · · Score: 1

    Remember, Signal 11 is really Anne Marie in disguise; she made up that silly "Bojay" character to taunt you, and you all fell for it, MWAHAHA!

    Boy, slashdot is silly. Back to Kuro5hin...

  7. I have prior art! on BountyQuest vs. Stupid Patent Ideas · · Score: 4

    Amazon.com's patent directly conflicts with my more general patent on "1-Click-Credit-Card-Fraud'.

  9. Using the old cores... on Why Design New Processor Cores? · · Score: 1

    Well, it might be possible to use an older, more simplified chip design to experiment with massively distributed problems; after all, you could fit a lot of 486's on today's silicon.

    Interestingly, newer chip designs revolve around a concept that isn't too different from this. Transmeta, for example, is using a proven design (a RISC core) and making it use multiple execution units simultaneously. This is similar to breaking a problem down into simpler steps and having four CPU's working on it, but it works for more general problems.

    Since they've managed to save so many transistors in their design, and move a lot of work into software, they should be able to ramp up the clock speed in the future, and once compilers catch up, maybe add some more execution units too, and get some faster SIMD instructions.

  10. Slashdot Moderation on Interesting Moderation Proposal · · Score: 1

    Slashdot Moderation doesn't work. I should know, just look at my posting history!

    I've been bitchslapped, modded up and down, and most recently had someone with an obvious vendetta against me massively mod down my posts, including a bunch of old ones!

    Therefore, I'll be amazed if anyone ever reads this.

    However, I probably hold the record for the biggest mod war on slashdot, when in fact my post should have been something like (+5, Funny; +2, Offtopic), where the user can choose how anal and humorless they are.

    Anything that is done to slashdot moderation now will be an ugly hack; the whole thing should be scrapped and redesigned, and that probably won't happen, period.

  11. Cool... on Slashback: Universities, Piecemiel, Yakkin' · · Score: 2

    I could care less about Napster, but I'm entertained that Universities across the nation end up on the side of the students on this issue simply because it's easier for them to do so. I know that Universities don't have their interests at heart, but it's fun to see them come off as supporting the students.

    However, the RIAA obviously can't manage to do the same thing with their artists, which should give you an idea as to the scope and depth of their evilness.

    So... anyone want to make a song for me? I promise not to lock you into an absurd licensing contract... :)

  12. Re:Macro Viruses on Microsoft's New Spamming Technique · · Score: 1

    Also, CC: everybody in the address book; if they reply to the e-mail and take the CC'ed addresses off, sue them for circumventing your protection device, mail fraud, and being a thinking human being.

  13. Re:NEWSFLASH on Sun's UltraSPARC III Processor Shipping · · Score: 1

    Read the post: "it's a wonder that we old-timers stick around". Most of us *do* leave; I'm still pondering why I haven't yet. Loyalty, maybe?

    Hoping that some Anonymous Coward will rise from our ranks and use the power of Slashdot to light our darkest hour, till all are one?

    However, judging from your post, it won't be you. The one-line questions are okay, but you need a little more style, a little more flair. I like a good three-paragraph flame much better. But we'll work on it.

  14. Macro Viruses on Microsoft's New Spamming Technique · · Score: 1

    Wow, what great innovation!

    Now Microsoft has an official version of this great functionality usually only found in Macro Viruses. I guess they're just embracing-and-extending again, to bring their customers these great new features.

    Why, in a few more versions of Outlook (once everyone on Windows is forced to use it), they should have the "Goodtimes" extensions finalized, and it will turn the world into mindless Microsoft drones.

    Gentlemen, I think we have a plot for an xbill sequel on our hands.

  15. NEWSFLASH on Sun's UltraSPARC III Processor Shipping · · Score: 3

    Slashdot sucks, film at 11.

    News for nerds, with sane submission queues

    A great place to troll (heck, even their articles are trolls!)

    An appropriate place for song parodies because everyone loves song parodies!

    I realize slashdot has this all in one place, but the moderation system and the userbase is so pathetic these days that it's a wonder we old-timers bother to stick around. I've had this account for less than a week, and I'm already disgusted with slashdot! It used to take months for that to happen...

    I mean, yeah, I wasn't tryin' to be serious or nothin', but I still want people to read my posts! And some of this stuff is completely unrelated.

    So either someone's been harvestin' too many mod points, or this was Slashdot Staff who didn't feel like sendin' me an e-mail sayin' "By the way, we don't like you" and shit.
