  1. about your site on Yahoo! Now On France's Minitel System · · Score: 1

    I was almost *positive* that your site was a goatse.cx mirror. I tell you, that site has cast a really bad shadow ofer the .cx TLD!

  2. Re:This guy's experience on Build Your own Ms. Pac-Man machine from Scratch · · Score: 1

    Where do you sleep? Where is the can? Do you ever have company?

  3. a great idea for this piece on Strategic Commander Controller For RTS · · Score: 1

    Remember all the fuss about how a keyboard chord device could be so intuitive for input with a mouse? This thing looks like it could make a great chord key modifier.

  4. Re:Security holes? on MS 'Whistler' Looks Solid To ZDNET · · Score: 1

    Security holes? They don't call it Whistler for nothing.

  5. My memory sucks on Patch To Allow Linux To Use Defective DIMMs · · Score: 1

    I had memory in one of my machines that was totally out there. Would cause the weirdest problems during compiles, but never a sig 11.

    I wanted to rename the box Alzheimers.

  6. cool on Computer Will Take On Formula 1 Champion · · Score: 5

    needs a little r2d2 unit mounted on the top

  7. Re:Replace Ice with Soft, Tissue-Like Substance on Next, The Copier Will Reproduce Popsicles · · Score: 1

    C'mon man, I just saw the Professional. Shes only 12 years old! Sicko.

  8. Re:Woohoo! on Click! Ultra-High-Speed Digital Camera · · Score: 2

    What's neat about this though is it gives you unlimited amounts of trials without worrying about having to set up your recording equipment every time, and spend shitloads on film. Say someone wants to observe a split second phenomenon in nature, they could use this camera to do their trials and get data to work with, then their 'master' version of the recording can be done on super high quality (expensive) film.

    I'd love to film a sneeze with this thing :)

  9. Clues! on Is There REALLY an IT Worker Shortage in the US? · · Score: 1

    Reminds me of my old history teacher,

    "Everybody put a dollar on the table before you leave class, we are saving up to buy Mike a clue-bag."

  10. "there are more Americans turning 18..." on Dark Hearts And The Net · · Score: 1

    than ever before...

    Life expectancy in America sucks.

  11. Why Slashdot is Good on Does P = NP? · · Score: 1

    Isin't this what comments are all about guys? This is it! This is why reading Slashdot is an enjoyable experience!

  12. Find something better to worry about on Slashnet Forum Chat Log · · Score: 1

    All I wanna do is read interesting comments on cool stories. I don't give a shit about a poster's reputation, karma, +1 bonus, or whatever else it is you guys worry about. Just read the fucking story and enjoy the extra information you get from the comments.

  13. Re:Big Whopping Deal on X86-64 Simulator - now available (Linux only) · · Score: 1

    I know, I was being sarcastic. It has two semi-32bit processors, one graphics and one number cruncher. Based on that logic, my SMP system is a 96bit system.

  14. Big Whopping Deal on X86-64 Simulator - now available (Linux only) · · Score: 1

    My Atari Jaguar was doing 64 bit years before any of these fancy chips!

  15. Re:What? on Timex Sinclair ZX81 Back On the Market · · Score: 1

    ..and its running as a nice little Linux firewall under my desk. I think?

  16. Taking a Space Voyage in the Magnetic Bubble on Going To Space Inside Magnetic Bubbles · · Score: 1

    Coooool.. Sounds like a freaky acid trip.

  17. More like a WAN on Aussies Put Old Pay-TV Dishes To Use -- As A LAN · · Score: 1

    This is more like a WAN, campus sized deal(or bigger). If only I didn't live in such an urban area I would buy a rig like this for almost any price to link up to work.

  18. HELL YEAH on Hawking On Earth's Lifespan · · Score: 1

    This is the funniest thing I have EVER heard on the internet! I laughed so fucking hard when "Crazy as Fuck" started up, I had my entire family here listening to it.

  19. Fungus? on Space Fungus Eating Mir (Really) · · Score: 1

    You would think they had enough vodka in that thing to kill off any fungus.

  20. n degrees of Microsoft on Microsoft Buys into Corel · · Score: 2

    Anyone ever play the seven degrees of Kevin Bacon? There should be a n degrees of Microsoft, 2 or 3 would probably be realistic.

  21. Re:What a conicidence! on Merits Of The Different Journaling Filesystems? · · Score: 1

    Don't sweat it. This place is so impersonal these days that it couldn't have been rejected just because you submitted it.

  22. Simple, functional, and not ugly! on Xfce: Alternative to GNOME/KDE · · Score: 1

    PWM is the window manager for people who hate the slow, awkward window managers and 'desktop environments'. Just look at how weirdly aligned the text and menubars are in kde, gnome, and this xfce. It's just not right. PWM is what a sane person would ask for. Who wants all of the features in these other desktops when they all aestheticly inconsistant, in constant development, and look like ugly hacks. Try something simple, fast, and intuitive.

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/pwm/homepage/

    I have 'Be' looking menu bars, and it looks just right. Plus, it loads in less than a second on my pretty average SMP machine. I am plugging this project because it is a true 'back to basics' style WM, that fixes all of the ugliness and awkwardness that even FVWM still has.

  23. Re:slsahdoted on Sun's UltraSPARC III Processor Shipping · · Score: 1

    Whoo hoo! Lets see how many people will mod this sucker insightful! Essay generators rule.

  24. Re:Look familiar? on A Do-It-Yourself Embedded Linux Box · · Score: 1

    Bingo. I got mine during the rush to cheat that poor company out of an ISP contract. Very cool little box, a little on the slow end as can be expected though. I have a 13 gig drive hooked up to it now, packed with MP3's, and a nice looking big-font XMMS front end. Gotta love the TV-out and the wireless keyboard too.

  25. Creating black markets on FCC to Require Anti-Piracy Features in Digital TVs · · Score: 1

    This type of action just stimulates demand for illegal 'unadulterated' A/V equipment. And you know when these sets come out that there will be ways to modify or remove the protection, giving organized groups a valuable resale operation.
