  1. Use the universal geek trap symbol: on Wartrapping? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Admiral Ackbar.

    'nuff said.

  2. Re:I was in the same situation; here's what I did on What Would You Do With a New Form of Encryption? · · Score: 3, Funny

    All I got from that was: "You're gonna shoot your eye out".

    *shrugs*

    In case anyone is scratching their head at this...

  3. Easter egg to look for? on Napster: The Movie · · Score: 2

    With Alex Winter on board, can we expect to see Wyld Stallions MP3s shared in the film?

  4. Re:big screen on Slashback: Cinelerra, Dolphiname, Phoenix · · Score: 1

    No hacking needed for that, just any old television set will do... :)

  5. Re:The most important question.. on Shawn Fanning Interview · · Score: 2

    The most important question, to my mind, was not addressed in the interview
    I agree, but the question I had in mind was simply this:

    Ded kitty?

  6. They struck! on Web Hacking: Attacks and Defense · · Score: 3, Funny

    I noticed that there were no reviews from any person in the web security community had commented on it

    See? Those web hackers are pretty good, no?

  7. Slashdot Exhibits? on Slashdot Turns 5 · · Score: 2

    How about a series of links highlighting great moments in Slashdot history?

    * The first "First Post"
    * First Linux vs. Windows vs. Mac vs. vi vs. emacs flamewar
    * First post lamenting broken business models
    * First post by Wil Wheaton
    * Posts removed by the Scientologists
    * Jon Katz making sense in the pre-September 11 and pre-columbine world.

    Any more suggestions?

  8. Goodbye server on Armadillo Rocket Makes A (Short) Manned Hop · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Houston, we have a problem...

  9. You don't need a lawyer... on When Do You Really Need a Lawyer? · · Score: 1

    you need your head examined for asking legal advice of Slashdot.

  10. Griffin? on Hearing on Hollywood Hacking Bill · · Score: 2

    Steve Griffin, who watched from the audience as lawmakers and witnesses castigated his Morpheus peer-to-peer service, said Congress would do better to establish a per-song royalty rate to compensate copyright holders

    Steve Griffin? The same guy that thought it was ok to rip off Amazon affiliates is making suggestions on how to be fair?

    Pot, this is kettle. Come in kettle.

  11. Hey Schon! on Bell Labs fires Hendrik Schon for Data Falsification · · Score: 2, Funny

    I hear these guys are hiring!

  12. Re:...But really we are not a lying scummbag Monop on Microsoft foils Xbox hackers with new Config · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Hey MS...do you even remeber that your fortunes are directly linked to the fact that your software runs on the worlds most cutomizable and hackable(in the good sense) hardware platform...hell you console is just a hack of that hardware platform...

    Not quite. Keep in mind that the Xbox is sold at a loss, with gains realized on the sales of games and accessories. Every Xbox sold for hacking around would not generate the income to cover the cost of the console itself. In this case, its understandable that they would do this to discourage further losses.

  13. Re:Old Technology, new twist on Crypto with Epoxy Tokens, Glass Balls and Lasers · · Score: 3, Interesting

    An even older application involved wax seals for letters.

    Candles of different colors were dripped onto the envelope to create a swirl of color that can't be as simply duplicated as a single color wax seal can. The picture of the multi-colored seal was sent ahead to verify the authenticity of the seal.

  14. Headline from Nature reads: on Crypto with Epoxy Tokens, Glass Balls and Lasers · · Score: 5, Funny

    Cheap trick secures secrets

    Finally! Something to go hand-in-hand with my REO Speedwagon encryption algorithm.

  15. Obligatory Clerks reference: on Self-Cleaning Glass · · Score: 1
  16. Decide your fate: on Talk To a Convicted Warez Guy · · Score: 5, Interesting

    If you were the judge, what kind of sentence would you have handed down to yourself?

    (Lets be reasonable, no 100 hours of "community service" breast exams at the Ford Modeling Agency)

  17. Yum on Attack of the Really Big Clones · · Score: 2, Informative

    Natalie Portman nip-ons in three-story screen glory.

    'Nuff said.

  18. From the article.. on Vint Cerf Talks About The "Interplanetary Internet" · · Score: 1

    There are no MCSEs on Mars to reboot computers that crash.
    Maybe this guy is!

  19. Re:Federal small claims on Judge Says Paypal's Arbitration Rules Unfair · · Score: 3, Informative

    If the issue is with PayPal, you forgo your right to sue for "binding arbitration" (read:a private court that will almost certainly be in PayPal's favor), IIRC. Hopefully, the class action suit will put an end to that nonsense.

  20. Re:Something in a name... on Ruling in Aimster Case · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    What a brilliant defense! Although with a clever "stagename" like Johnny Deep what exactly did anyone expect?

    Go easy on him. Things may be tough since he left "21 Jump Street".

  21. Re:Campus Net-Radio on Online Marketing for an Indie Band? · · Score: 3, Informative

    Taking this a step further, don't forget about the campus radio stations themselves. The CMJ sourcebook is chock full of station addresses and music directors names.

    Hell, send a copy to my alma mater radio station. Drop me a line via the Chemical Wonderland link and I'd be more than happy to help.

  22. Thats ok... on Palm Offers Refund to m130 Owners · · Score: 5, Funny

    I'll just wait for them to send me the extra 6,915 colors in the mail.

  23. This might be useful on Pro-Active Furniture Assembly · · Score: 2

    The system can suggest the next most appropriate action at any point in time

    Couch: It looks like you smacked your thumb with a hammer. Would you like to:

    1)Swear in your native language?

    2)Kick something?

    3)Dial a friend to come over and laugh at you?

  24. I'll be damned on Looking At The Linux Kernel · · Score: 5, Funny

    There really is a penguin at the center of the kernel!

  25. Somewhere... on Adobe Gets Hit By DMCA · · Score: 2

    Dmitry does that really deep evil laugh.
