  1. The Suck Cut, on USB Menorah · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    ...it really does, suck.

  2. Yep on Christmas Lighting in Abundance · · Score: 5, Funny

    Further proof that Management is useless.

  3. Your connection sucks. on Linux 2.6.0 Kernel Released · · Score: 1

    I just downloaded it from kernel.org at 648kB/s.

  4. tee hee. Nice try. on Linux 2.6.0 Kernel Released · · Score: 1

    The latest 2.2 version of the Linux kernel is: 2.4.23

  5. Re:open source versus capitalism on Iraq's Open Source Possibilities · · Score: 4, Funny

    You have to hand it to the Bush administration it really know how to make a bad situation worse.

    If by that you mean: Knows how to make itself look really stupid and get the entire world to begin stereotyping all americans as warmongering monkeys, then yes, I am in agreement.

  6. Re:open source versus capitalism on Iraq's Open Source Possibilities · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Given that the US is already excluding foreign nations who did not support the US led war from lucrative rebuilding contracts in Iraq

    Granted I think it's a stupid policy move too, but those nations sound a little hypocritical now. We don't want you to go to war, and we'll blast you for it, but it's not fair that we can't profit from it.

    Additionally, it's not the Bush Administration who would push M$, but rather the gigantic corporations that they will be giving the contracts to.

    The whole thing is rotten.

  7. Why spider when you can deepweb? on Spidering Hacks · · Score: 2, Informative
  8. Buried under a big T on Japanese Pocket-Size PC Cube Demonstrated · · Score: 0, Troll

    T-Marketing needs some T-Help.

    Slashdot Subscription, the most expensive asterisk money can buy!

    They do, it's just not funny anymore. :-)

  11. This is a good thing. on Lindows Ordered To Stop Using Lindows Name · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The Lindows name is stupid anyway.

  12. motorcycle advancements on Heads-Up Displays for Motorcyclists · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Bart: "I could sure use that flying motorcycle now."
    Frink: "You had your chance!"

  13. From the who-cares dept? on Security Experts Doubt SCO's Claims of DoS · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    I mean, really.

  14. Now that's good government on Electronic Voting in the News · · Score: 1, Funny

    "I'd really like to have [yin-yang] explained to me anatomically, with the assumption that almost any place it would be would be painful," she said.

  15. transfer protocols comma that suck on Kermit Alive and Well on the Space Station · · Score: 3, Interesting

    (which was scorned in favor of Zmodem)

    With good reason. :)

    IceZmodem rocked.

  16. Woohoo on Sun Negotiating With Wal-Mart Over Java Desktop · · Score: 4, Funny

    Now every old, dirty, walking-around-in-WalMart-wearing-their-underwear- at-3AM-because-its-still-open, couple can enjoy Java.

    The masses thank you.

    (P.S.: Yes, I've seen that, and it is frightening(ly hilarious if you are one of my friends.))

  17. Wallop on Microsoft Messenger Architect On The Future Of IM · · Score: 1

    So they talk about building 'community' and enhancing 'social communication' but they never seem to indicate whether this 'society' will be exclusive or inclusive. Will it be inclusive as long as you're willing to sign NDAs and pay licenses to use the technology?

  18. Re:So he's the one on Interview With Turing-Award Winner Robin Milner · · Score: 1

    s/programmer/scientist/

  19. Re:Yay government. on Spammers Pleased with 'Anti'-Spam Act · · Score: 1

    You assume that ISPs have that capability, whether it's possible or not.

  20. Re:AIW on All-in-Wonder 9600 Pro Review · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Oh, I guess you are on Windows. I have not used Windows on my computers in several years so I can't comment on ATI's drivers for that Operating System, but it does sound like they are troublesome.

    The Linux drivers work just as advertised once you get them setup.

  21. AIW on All-in-Wonder 9600 Pro Review · · Score: 2, Informative

    AIW has been a nice low cost video swiss army knife. If I weren't so happy with my ATI Radeon 9000 (and ATI's support of it with drivers!) I would get one of these.

  22. Right on Caldera/SCO Co-Founder Ransom Love Speaks · · Score: 0, Troll

    "but they need Linux, and Linux needs them" . . .like a hole in the head.

  23. I wonder on Is Space Mining Feasible? · · Score: 1

    If you put this into the capitalist's hands, she will necessarily move the minerals as needed to ensure profits, so I wonder what happens when you move enough mass off of the Moon and onto Earth.

  24. Headlines on MS' News: on Microsoft Introduces Competition For Google News · · Score: 5, Funny

    "Does Linux cause cancer? Find out at MSnewsbot.com. ... Bill Gates: Terrific Dancer. ... Dow down 5000 points. ... Study: 92 percent of Linux users are gay.. ... Oil slicks found to keep penguins young, supple. ... Steve Ballmer: Awesome."

    You don't even need to RTFA on this one to see that they are offering SuSE on all of their servers.
