  1. Maylays on "L33T" Speak Invades Schools · · Score: 1

    On irc and other places, myself and others commonly refer to people who talk like this as "maylays", short for Malaysians (spelling?). We always think they look like complete illiterate idiots when they talk like: "pls ne1 help on the linux???", it's highly annoying.

    Get a clue people.

  2. Re:As humans, don't we have right to our airspace? on Nokia calls Wireless Warchalkers 'Thieves' · · Score: 1

    It's my airspace. These people are sending signals through our bodies. Even assuming it's 100% healthy (no trolls with stories about studies into cancer causes required), I don't have the right to attempt to listen to this signal?

    Well said my friend! It reminds me of how it's illegal in the US to listen to cellular phone calls.

    Excuse me?! That radiation passes through MY body without MY consent, and I can't listen to it?

    Kiss my fucking ASS!

    note: don't bother replying unless you agree, other viewpoints ignored.

  3. Not the chalkers, the people who use the access on Nokia calls Wireless Warchalkers 'Thieves' · · Score: 1

    It isn't the chalkers. It's the people who use the access later.

    And don't even get me started, it pisses me off how someone doesn't know how to keep their shit secure and they're not the ones who get in trouble when someone takes advantage of it.

  4. Re:finally on Lindows 2.0.0 Released · · Score: 1

    While our main development has always been done on Win2k workstations and HP-UX servers, we've long used Linux (since version 4, IIRC) for low-priority office work,...

    Are you sure you're a cheif admin or whatever? As far as I know there's no linux version 4.

  5. Gentoo Newbie on UT2003 LiveCD · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I just started using gentoo last thursday. This after 5 years of slackware, and only slackware.

    It's a fantastic distro for those of you with a pretty strong system, I highly reccommend it.

  6. Personal Info, Medical Records, DRM? WRONG on Microsoft Planning Digital Restrictions Server · · Score: 1

    "Personal information such as medical and financial data; corporate information such as legal and business documents; and commercial content such as software, music and movies may all require DRM," said a Microsoft spokeswoman, in Redmond, Wash.

    Like hell. I would use all possible avenues at my disposal, and I do mean all, to prevent MY information mingled with this shit!

  7. Wrong, Gentoo was the first on Enigmail Standard In Mandrake 9.0 · · Score: 3, Informative

    freenode.net #gentoo asked me to do this.

    Gentoo was the first, and yes, gentoo IS major.

  8. Not news. on 60,000 Credit Cards Numbers Stolen Online · · Score: 1

    Big deal, many of us know how easy it is to kiddie a credit card or 100,000.

    Sure glad I don't have one.

    Suckers!

  9. Who the fuck cares? on Beware of Fake Monkey Automatons · · Score: 1, Informative

    This is the most irrelevant article I've ever seen on slashdot.

    It's annoying on weekends when things are so quiet here, but that's fine. Even CmdrTaco and friends have to have some time off. But I'd rather it remain silent then this dumb shit.

    Fuck you.

  10. Error, damnit on WA Wins First Case Against Deceptive Spammer · · Score: 1

    "No web site is configured at this address."

    Google caches when you submit people.. .try em...

  11. No linux? heh on Graphing Randomness in TCP Initial Sequence Numbers · · Score: 1

    I didn't see Linux on there at all. Weird, considering it's a fairly major OS.

  12. Images don't work in mozilla on ViewSonic shows 200 dpi display · · Score: 1

    Nice. On the page, that is.

  13. Correct. on Sites Rejecting Apache 2? · · Score: 1

    I use 1.3 at both work and home.

    Why?

    Yep, it's the modules. I can grab apachetoolbox and get everything i need set up quickly.

    As far as I know, there is no apachetoolbox for apache 2.*.

    Also I saw the first post about there not being PHP for 2.*. That's a BIG minus.

    Things will catch up, when there is a need.

  14. Look for google caches when submitting on MS Exec: 'Our products just aren't engineered for security' · · Score: 1

    Gee, slashdotted.

    Come on people, look for google caches when submitting stories.

  15. Congrats, and best wishes! on Venezuela Goes Open Source · · Score: 1

    Hope everything goes well, I'm sure there are thousands on slashdot alone who would be happy to help in any way they could. Me being one of them.

  16. My medical records on MS systems? Fuck you. on Is Win2k + SP3 HIPAA Compliant? · · Score: 1

    Talk about irresponsible.

  17. Connection refused on New MP3 License Terms Demand $0.75 Per Decoder · · Score: 1

    Nice. I don't have enough words to find a google cache.

  18. I'm not a Red Hat fan on Is Red Hat the Microsoft of Linux? · · Score: 1

    ...However, I don't think they are the MS of Linux. A rather absurd assumption.

    Until Red Hat starts performing anti-trust type actions, all of this is bogus shit.

    Get off the bandwagon people.

  19. Compiled 1.0.1 cvs last night on Mozilla 1.1 Hits The Street · · Score: 1

    How ironic :)

  20. That's it?! on DoubleClick Settles Privacy Investigation · · Score: 1

    Good lord, what a weak settlement.

  21. Hope for lamers like me on Broadband via Power Cables trials in Scotland · · Score: 1

    I've heard of this, I sure hope it goes well. This would make it (more) possible for lamers like me who live in shitty areas to get descent speed.

  22. 2.2 Trillion / Billion on Fax-Spammers fax.com Sued For 2.2 Trillion · · Score: 1

    Odd, the title says 2.2 Trillion, the body says 2.2 Billion. Pick a number.

  23. Re:Isn't it ironic... don't ya think... on Restrictive Linking Policies & The Net · · Score: 1

    I went down the list and nailed all of those about three times each. I'm about to do it again.

    Rock on.

  24. American Cancer Society on Restrictive Linking Policies & The Net · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Am I thick? Or is this tragically stupid?

    Other sites, such as the American Cancer Society, say restrictions on deep linking are in the best interests of people seeking information.

    "Our policy is nothing out of the ordinary," American Cancer Society spokesman David Sampson said. "We like people to go through the main page so they find out about the right cancer, and they see the broad range of information we have here. Our aim is to support people as advocates, lead them to support groups, which if people go to a page on a new medicine, they don't see."


    Uh. ... wha!?

  25. Re:Frisbee/Coaster turn out on Forty-Speed CD-RW Shootout · · Score: 1

    As I recall, each speed increase turns out more frisbees than the last. 10x burns less reliably than 8x, etc.

    I've probably had 3 frisbees out of a hundred disks both r and rw with my plextor that is mentioned.

    Not to mention that CD-RW drives DO have a theoretical maximum number of CDs they can burn before they're worn out to the point of turning out NOTHING but frisbees...

    Interesting, I've never heard of this. Care to elaborate?
