  1. Too bad on Ruby 2.1.0 Released · · Score: 4, Insightful

  4. That weird part of YouTube on Secrets of Beatboxing Revealed By MRI · · Score: 2

    Looks like these researchers landed on that weird part of YouTube again.

  5. Oh wow! on Microsoft Slashes Prices On Surface · · Score: 0

    This is really news! Such a technologic breakthrough must be immediately reported! "I wonder what Microsoft will do for customers who purchased a tablet right before the price drop?" If we needed more confirmation that this was a BS submission, this cleared any doubt.

    Lucky that he told us before. No one could have seen that coming. I mean, like he's ever done it before... The hamster thing is heartless though.

  9. Once upon a time... on Linux Fatware: Distros That Need To Slim Down · · Score: 2, Interesting

    there was Arch. And Gentoo. And LFS. And long strings of 0s and 1s. Then a rock and a piece of wood.

  10. Not sure if april fools'... on A New Benefit For Logged-In Readers: Meet Slashdot's ROT13 Initiative · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ...or actual ad spamming. Naah, april fools'

  11. Seriously? on NetWare 3.12 Server Taken Down After 16 Years of Continuous Duty · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    How do you do it. Hell, how do you even THINK of doing it. This is so great.

    Duct tape is like the Force, it has a dark side, a light side, and it binds the universe together.

    They should have built a Beowulf cluster. The regular one is such a cliché.

    Very interesting documentary by NatGeo on icebreakers, watched it a few days ago after Ars coverage of the news. Explains how they work and why they are designed like that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F95wO1-flM0

  21. This reminds me of... on Active Video Games Don't Make Kids Exercise More · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I remember, once upon a time, when there was a thing called "outside". Kids didn't need videogames to exercise, as they did actual exercise. Seriously, thinking videogames=exercise is so dumb it should be illegal.
