  1. spell check on WiFi, Light Bulbs, And The FCC · · Score: 1

    Could the morons who posted that article please check the spelling of "Fusion Lighting" next time? It is clearly spelled in the article, and google knows how to spell it too. That would be helpful for those of us who wanted more information about these new cool light bulbs!

  2. Re:This is getting ridiculous.. on VA Linux Systems Opens at $300 · · Score: 1

    since the new millionaires wont post it here for fear of losing their millions in a worthless stock... go read this article, its titled Dot Com Dogs about new worthless dot com stocks.

  3. where do I sign up on United Parcel Service Sued for Insurance Fraud · · Score: 1

    Good, a chance to strike back and get those
    4 dollars I deserve! How/where do I join the
    lawsuit. Is it class-action yet?

  4. Ask Slashdot: I have this pain in my side... on Laser Vision Correction? · · Score: 1

    Do I need to go to Slashdot now for medical advice? Seriously... Call a damn doctor.

  5. they may have a profit now.. on SGI to layoff ~ 3000 employees, sees 2Q profit (UPDATED) · · Score: 0

    But, thats only from cost cutting. Did revenue increase? And... Will they have enough employees (or enough happy employees) left to make a profit in the future? If you dont have any employees left its very difficult to make future profits.

  6. Re:Great.. on Andover.Net Acquires Freshmeat.Net · · Score: 1

    Absolutely. Slashdot used to have much more useful articles than it does now. Now all we have are the 4 standard articles..

    1) Linux was in XXXX magazine
    2) Jon Katz has something to bitch about
    3) Some company has some product with flashing lights, and Hemos/Taco had an orgasm over it.
    4) Some company mentioned the word Open in passing, and Hemos/Taco had an orgasm over it.

    I miss the old days!

  7. BWP vs Deep Blue Sea on Lo-Tech Cinema · · Score: 1

    If I see another Deep Blue Sea ad, I will kill someone.

    "In the least intelligent movie producer's office in the world... A movie producer takes a film with no plot and bad acting, and adds digital effects. As a side effect, the movie sucks."

  8. if I ever start a company on Another Wierd Linux Box · · Score: 1

    Remind me to do something like name it Open XYZ or put blinking lights on my product. Then I will get free advertising on Slashdot.

    Slashdot. Fascinated by Lights. Enthralled with Buzzwords.

  9. Re:spelling. on Another Wierd Linux Box · · Score: 1

    It might also be nice if a company trying to sell
    machines spelled things correctly. I am not sure
    what a Linux ditribution is, but apparently, thats the OS you get with these boxes.

  10. Re:Server or client software on HP's OpenMail to support Linux · · Score: 1

    The download directory contains both a server and a client package.

  11. This is the stupidest thing... on Watch Web's first "Open Company"? · · Score: 1

    This is the stupidest thing that I have ever seen on Slashdot. You can't just throw the word open into something and make it worthwhile (or Slashdot material). These are N guys in some city that make porn sites, who cares.

  12. Re:national labs on The First Step to Cypherspace? · · Score: 1

    Actually Sandia is an independent contractor who
    does alot of work for the DOE and is owned by Lockheed-Martin. They do work for the government, but they are not the government.

  13. Its not that ads are bad... on Phoenix to embed bootup ads in BIOS · · Score: 1

    Its not that the ads themselves are bad, but the fact that you must pay to see them that sucks. Previously having ads meant you got something from it, like network TV, or sites like Slashdot. This is part of a disturbing trend... Juno Internet (yeah I know, but its for my gf's mom okay!) makes you pay the standard $20/mo and still makes you see ads. I think AOL does it too!

  14. really... on SCO CEO Calls Red Hat a Fraud · · Score: 1

    Are things that bad at SCO? If I worked there I would be looking for work or something. When you have to call the CEO of another company a fraud, business can't be going well.

  15. strange... on NSI sells registrant info. Again. · · Score: 1

    Well since they are selling my info, I thought I might post theirs... But when I went to InfoUSA to find an address and number for their CEO, Vinod Gupta, I found he wasn't listed. InfoUSA is the company that will be reselling our information, however, it seems that some people care about their own privacy at the expense of others. I urge anyone who knows it to post his address, phone number, and the number of employees that he has. As a side note, the name of the NSI executive (Douglas Wolford) from the news.com story was also unlisted (on Switchboard).
