...CmdrTaco announced today that:
-Slashcode is being ported to Visual Basic.
-OSDN has signed a four year endorsment deal with Microsoft.
-The largest group of slashdotters ever assembled has ascended from their collective basements to protest the communist practices of one Linus Torvalds.
...To see what horrible, disgusting freak of (nature?) is spawned by such abomibale works as "Celebrity", "I'm A Slave 4 U" or "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik"?
...that real postless people are too karma-deprived to make a funny comment (adapted from the comments of the most overrated comedian ever, Chris Rock). My comment: Thank you for being brave enough to browse at less than 1. And moderators, I could use a Karma point or two in charity so I don't have to abandon this account (currently with karma == -1). I would say god bless, but I couldn't ever embrace religion, not even for karma. This whole thing makes no damn sense. To hell with me, I'll just go slink away into corner and finish the english assignment that I should be doing now, the one I had (and needed) a month too do, but just started at 1:30 AM today and is due tommorrow (today?) at 1:10 PM. I'm currently only being kept awake and alert by adrenaline and a horrible pain in my head, which is likely the reason for this non-sensical rant. Thank you for your time.
It seems some moderators are better at fucking what little karma a guy has than interpreting sarcasm. I believe that you all know the appropriate discussion by now. Good day.
...of all the third galaxy planets there for the United States of Earth to bomb to shit. Our problems may seem small now, but if we resolve them and live through it, we'll cause much bigger problems in the long run. Please, stop humanity, before it is too late.
If I can download pr0n faster, it's an established fact I will. And, when I do, it's inevitable that more of my time will be consumed to enjoy the added volume. And I just can't afford to waste 20 hours a day!
TROLL?! Apparently there's a moderator out there who doesn't like to read the full post. I'm sure you all know by now how the way to the troll post investigation. Thank you for your time.
...if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. Then, we both broke into hysterical laughter. Thus, I submit that this is a horrible waste of both Sony and end-user time and resources. What can you do on a game console that you can't do on a formal PC? The only value that I can see in this is an ego boost for a pretentious, arrogant (likely wannabe-)geek, who wants to d3m0n57r4t3 h15 1337 h4x0r 5k1115.
This is NOT a Troll post or Flamebait, it is simply my opinion. If you disagree, I welcome a response.
designing weaknesses into the stucture might weaken it
Really? <PARANOIA> Someone should tell Microsoft that all their backdoors and spyware are creating all those security weaknesses! </PARANOIA>
Oh, and since this is going to be modded to Troll or Offtopic anyway: No shit!
Before I get started, I stress that this is NOT OFFTOPIC, as it addresses a ST:IV nit that's been posted many times to this discussion.
Okay, here it is: Scotty presumably chose to use transparent aluminium rather than steel or some other substance because he had no way to obtain any other substance. He had to give away something significant, which he had access to in either his knowlege or the Bounty (the B'rel in the movie), in order to gain access to to a material. Rather than give away the secret for, say, Duranium, which would have enabled humans to build things so strong that they would change humanity's future drastically (e.g. allowing inpenetrable (by the weapons of the day) armour, or disaster (think terrorism) -proof buildings, etc.), he chose to do the least possible timeline damage as possible by giving away a trivial secret, only useful for aesthetics. Thus, transparent aluminium was the correct choice.
If these scientists got the millions of dollars, the respect (albeit worthless) of anyone who reads People Magazine and the top quality pussy (or whatever they may prefer) that Hollywood celebrities and Pop singers get for sharing their ideas and discoveries, the cooperative spirit in the scientific community would expand faster than Britney Spears' breasts after another few upgrades.
I have the perfect solution to solve the world's energy problems. It may not be zero point energy, but there are billions of individual fuel sources for this, readily available on every continent on Earth except the Antarctic, with new sources being created every minute (source: PT Barnum). It's really quite simple: get all the fools and stupid people on the planet (such as certain Reuters reporters), and tell them some shallow, universally idiot-worshipped celebrity "genius" (Oprah, the Hollywood prettyboy of the week, anyone in People Magazine, take your pick) to praise the virtues of walking in circles all day, pushing a big wooden peg attached to a wheel (think of a cheesy, old sci-fi's, or a Warner Bros. cartoon's depiction of slave labour in the middle ages), in turn attached to a generator, and these idiots will put sheep to shame. Simple. Clean. Free energy.
And yes, I realize that A Modest Proposal was a satirical political statementa and has an incompatible context (and was sarcastic in nature, unlike this post), but it still sounds good as a subject line, and was Ireland-related, sho up yersh. I gesh th'Guinnesh is gettin' to m'.
...Are Slashdot readers in favour of Microsoft or AOL-TW winning this particular case? A majority on either side might reveal a lot about the Slashdot community. If readers feel that AOL-TW is wrong in their suit, they are dismissing one of the strongest and most widely known issues securing Microsoft's status as the Evil Empire, the Borg or any of the other pseudonyms assigned to the company in allusion to their allegedly anti-competitive practices, thereby almost completely forefeiting(sp?) their argument against the company in that field. Conversely, if readers felt that Microsoft is getting what was coming to it for distributing superior software for 0% the price of a competitor, thereby nearly driving it out of existence (or so AOL-TW claim, but I know quite a few people who still use Netscape regularly), then Linus better watch the fuck out!
It's quite simple, really: subscription. You sign up to read only those messages from friends or from a guide service.
Also, this technology (along with the appropriate subscriptions and filters) could be used for "Augmented Reality", such as that described in the February 2002 issue of Popular Science.
NOMAD, Voyager VI, Pioneer X; take your pick. Free floating space probes are just plain fun. How many times have you wanted to kill Scotty or three shiploads of Klingons? If these probes are not allowed to continue on their unpredictable and potentially disasterous courses into deep space, many more worthy victims will go un-killed and continue to annoy us well into the next generation !

How the hell can this have been overrated?! It was -1 at the time of moderation!!!
Oh, and mod this howver the fuck you want. My karma's shot to hell anyways. If it drops below zero, I'll just register a new name.
Fuck you all (no, I'm not bitter, just horny),

And, since this is going -1 Troll anyways, I might as well. The source of my evil and insanity
You do the math. Disgustingly yours,

Appropriate that they wouldn't want press. Pressing anything crashes Windows.

How is this offtopic? It's about tracking down lamers and trolls, just like the article! I want my karma back!
Any way we could do this to Anonymous Coward's?

That demonstrating intelligence and creativity in proximity to Football (american) players is tempting death and mutilation.
