  1. Human Skin? on Scientists Derive Gelatin From Human Tissue · · Score: 1

    Gross, but delightfully delicious!

  2. Levy on Canada's Copyright Cops Give Go-Ahead For iPod Tax · · Score: 5, Funny

    Well, if I'm paying a levy it means it's legal! Thank you Canada.

  3. Re:Great! on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Release Date Announced · · Score: 1

    Incase nobody remembers, here is the post that was removed due to DCMA. http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=155566&cid=130 39593

  4. Great! on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Release Date Announced · · Score: 1

    I can't wait till Raincoast Books subpoena me again for disclosing the ending! Time to get Leonard J. Crabs ready for this one.

  5. Geeks rise from your graves! on Google Reaches Second-Most Visited Site Status · · Score: 4, Funny

    History is to be made, bring out the wget, bring out the sticky F5 keys, tonight is the night - Google becomes one.

  6. Nintendo DS Lite on Heat, Whine, and Now Yellow MacBooks · · Score: 1

    The same thing happens to my brand new Nintendo DS Lite. It's white, just as if it were an Apple product and after days of use, the L and R button are yellow, as are the buttons. Let's just face it, us geek's aren't the most sanitary people or there's some design flaws with white.

    I've read that if you use one of those magic white eraser things, you can remove the yellowing.

  7. Five years is about right on US Releasing 9/11 Flight 77 Pentagon Crash Tape · · Score: 1

    A couple seconds of footage, five years in the making ... Did George Lucas produce this one? When can I expect to see the Pentagon shoots first version?

  8. Re:Strain on the Internet that it wasn't designed on HD Video Could 'Choke the Internet'? · · Score: 1

    I heard it used a couple of "P"'s too

  9. Oh fawk! on Sony Ceases Production of PSOne · · Score: 1

    I just woke up and for a second there I thought it said PSP. I was like no way, I just bought the freaking thing.

  10. Great find! on Games Teaching the Basics of Programming · · Score: 1

    This could have good implications on future engineers. Where I read that the US is falling behind, this could help teach the logic engineers, especially electrical and computer engineers, need to use regularly.

  11. It's obvious on Infrastructure for One Million Email Accounts? · · Score: 4, Informative
    Your first bet would be Ask Slashdot.

    However, I'd personally ask Google. They've done it and even their search engine has information. I found an interesting link from there detailing the deployment of a large hundred thousand user mail system, from the architecture to the software located on Linux Journal.

  12. Affected Versions on Cisco Flaw Opens Routers to Attack · · Score: 5, Informative

    Affected versions include IOS 12.2ZH, IOS 12.2ZL, IOS 12.3, IOS 12.3T, IOS 12.4 and IOS 12.4T. IOS versions that are not vulnerable are IOS XR and IOS versions 12.2 and earlier, including 12.0S. This shouldn't be a problem for those Network Administrators that created access control lists for modifications for the router, however Cisco has issued a patch.

  13. More info on TrollTech to IPO? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Here's a link to another news story with a bit more info: Trolltech

  14. I heard .. on 9 Weeks to Pump Out New Orleans? · · Score: 0

    ... Iraq was sending out a large ammount of aid in the form of oil.

  15. Oh my! on Scientist Says Most Scientific Papers Are Wrong · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I don't know if I should believe him or not, couldn't his paper be wrong too? What if textbooks were wrong too? Movies? What if the dinosaurs didn't even exist? I can't handle it anymore!

  16. Re:So much for the DRM on Harry Potter's 'Half Blood Prince' Leaked · · Score: -1

    There'd be little problems at all. With the amount of stock we sell, it'd be stupid for Scholastic to pull their books from our shelves. If per say we were a smaller independent store, sure that's justified but with a company that does billions in sales a year, it's only shooting yourself in the foot.

  17. I have the book in possesion on Harry Potter's 'Half Blood Prince' Leaked · · Score: 5, Informative

  18. Zombies on Zombie Report By ISP · · Score: -1

    Mmmm.... Brains!

  19. Re:NORAD recruitment... on Laser Warnings Planned for Out-of-Bounds Pilots · · Score: 0

    Dr. Evil: Are those fricken' sharks with fricken' laser beams attached to their fricken' heads?

  20. If Linus switched on Return of the Mac · · Score: 0

    Then it's a good indication that others will follow.

  21. Hot Deal on Dells on Dell Rejects AMD Chips (again) · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    For those of you that live in Canada, or are interested in importing Dell Canada has a fantastic deal running right now on the Dimension 2400. For $299 plus tax the system features a Celeron 2.4GHz, 256MB RAM, Windows XP Home, and an 80GB hard drive. Considering that a full copy of XP would cost you $100 by itself, this is an awesome deal! Shipping is also included in the price. This would be a great deal for those of you who want to keep your children away from your main workstation.

    Dell Deal

  22. It's a scam! on Google Donating Bandwidth and Servers to Wikipedia · · Score: 0

    Guys, it's all a scam. They're trying to win the public heart while at the same time working towards world domination. News at eleven!

  23. A day to remember on Ham Operator Sets New Miles-Per-Watt World Record · · Score: 0

    Today is a turning point in history, in technology and most of all - wireless communications. With the addition of a 8 meter antenna, we'll be free to connect wirelessly to anyone in our neighbourhoods. Gone are the days of dialup, cable internet and snail mail. I'll be able to use a wireless provider, hundreds of kilometres away!

  24. Isn’t it obvious on How Craigslist Costs Newspapers Money · · Score: 0

    If newspapers weren't printed on paper they would save tons of money related to paper costs, printing etc. It's no wonder why Craigslist is so profitable.

  25. Cat got your tongue? on Microsoft Class Action Suit Outcome: Indifference · · Score: 5, Funny

    Did it ever occur to them that every time we try signing up for the class action lawsuit, when we hit submit iexplorer.exe gives us a general protection fault? That seven percent must be the Mozilla users.
