  1. Hmmm on Support Site for User Friendly · · Score: 1
    An injunction? Against a comic strip? I don't think so. At most, they'd just ask you to pull existing offending material and don't make any new offending material.

    Lawsuit. Yeah, right. And M$ is selling Linux.

  2. hmmm on Linus will move to Moscow to work with Elbrus · · Score: 2

    April Fools.. Maybe the whole Segfault thing is in on it too.

  3. The Sounds of Slashdot on Scratching MP3s with a real turntable · · Score: 1
    Jeez-combine this with the audio equipment we got yesterday, and Rob and I might cut a record

    I'd buy it. Where do I send the cash?

  4. foo on The end of Pokey the Penguin · · Score: 1

    Well, shoot. Right when you get into the habit of reading something..

  5. The Slashdot Dance on Tuesday Quickies · · Score: 1
    Oh man.. I can't stop laughing from that one :-)

    Anyone up for making a Slashdot theme for blackbox?

  6. heh on Russian crackers get whitehouse.gov? · · Score: 1
    I wouldn't be surprised if they did take down the machine.. Anyway, from what I hear, Clinton is quite fond of things that spontaneously "go down".

    :-)

  7. heh on Microsoft Reorganization · · Score: 0

    That'd be funny if the DOJ came in and split up their new divisions.

  8. Notwork Delusions on NSI Claims whois Database is Proprietary · · Score: 1
  9. Well on Katz v Taco: Futurama · · Score: 1
    I likes it.

    Last night's Simpsons wasn't too bad, either. Especially the part with that Heimlich Maneuver Machine where the lady spits out the food, walks down, then trips and falls on it.

  10. red alert on NSI Claims whois Database is Proprietary · · Score: 1

    Segfault.org got the lawyer letter from M$ today.

  11. Redhat on Red Hat to ignore LSB? · · Score: 2
    The good thing about Red Hat is that you can make changes and redistribute them as your own distribution. The thing to do would be to make Redhat LSB compliant and redistribute it to the masses. If it's really a popular idea, it'll take off and Redhat will probably take notice.

    Note for people in the Baltimore/Washington area -- Hamboree/Computerfest is this weekend at the Timonium Fairgrounds.. Lots of computer hobbyists there, so there's bound to be some Linux persons wandering around or selling stuff. Plus they have that cool food. LINK

  12. Looking good.. on Slashdot Moderation:Phase 1.1.1 · · Score: 1
    Slashdot sure has come a long way from when it started.

    Looking forward to the new Slash code release..

  13. Cool on MP3s Causing Decline in CD Sales? · · Score: 1
    Do you guys realize how convenient it is to have all audio on demand? I've ripped all my CDs- its just so wonderful.

    I love having everything on demand. It's great, since I don't have to spend 10 minutes looking through my sea of CDs for one specific title. Instead, I spend 11 minutes looking for whatever cryptic filename I gave the MP3, and which directory it's in. ;>

  14. Microsoft Conspiracy on Segfault and User Friendly threatened · · Score: 1
    It has to be Microsoft behind all the bullying, seeing as how the only things segfault seems to make fun of are M$ and Linux. And I doubt Linus is bullying them.

    Microsoft has that Windows 2000 deadline to meet. Why don't they work on that?

  15. Windows? on One-handed Keyboards · · Score: 1
    They claim that it will work on *nix and Palms in addition to Windows systems... pretty neat!

    I doubt Windows users will buy this. When was the last time you saw one of them use a keyboard?

  16. Why not just set up an NNTP server? on Slashdot Moderation Phase 1.1 · · Score: 1
    There's already at least one up and running. Screenshot

    The two main problems why I haven't gone public with mine are:
    1) No sensible way to implement slashdot's banner advertisements
    2) Comment/story copyright

  17. Idea: User moderation? on Slashdot Moderation Phase 1.1 · · Score: 1
    Another idea would be to have two "score" ratings, one scored by moderator, and one scored by users. An option on the user account preferences screen could give a user the opportunity to base thresholding of comments on either the moderator score, or the user score. This would probably be hell to implement cleanly (stopping multiple scoring requests on one post, etc.), but it sounds like it'd be neat.

    Anyway, just my -$0.02.

  18. Of course you know, this means war. on MS kills Linux demo at PIII launch · · Score: 0

    Kick Microsoft in the nuts.

  19. damn! on Seriously Overpriced Books · · Score: 1

    At that price I'd better be able to reformat the book and install a Unix on it..

  20. My last word about... on MS kills Linux demo at PIII launch · · Score: 1

    They just promoted a buttload of people to moderators, so there's bound to be some rough edges. Try setting your threshold to like -400 or something. :)

  21. Make up your mind, MS on MS kills Linux demo at PIII launch · · Score: 0

    Microsoft's left brain cell doesn't know what its right brain cell is doing.

  22. heh on MS kills Linux demo at PIII launch · · Score: 1

    They're running scared. I never thought I'd see the day that Microsoft was put into ultra-paranoid panic mode, but here we are.

  23. hmmm on CD vending machines · · Score: 1

    I can bet people will be tipping these things over just to get the CD burners.

  24. Microsoft Linux! on Is Red Hat the Next Microsoft? · · Score: 1
    Didn't they try Linux back in 1998?

    :-)

  25. Ugh on CeBIT Tidbits · · Score: 1

    Better stay away from any show that Microsoft is at, then..
