For a site that loves to be L337 and pro-open-source, I'm really enjoying the current surge in visualstudio.net adverts. Maybe it's just me that's getting more than usual? Either way, I'm proud to see slashdot being as two-faced as ever.
Sounds like the gel drives that them there scientists were making a few years ago. Can't find a link anywhere:(
Basically they were storing information on proteins kept inside a 1cm cube. They could get around 10GB in there, but couldn't read it back again. I have *no* idea how they proved that they could write the information onto the proteins if they couldn't read it back. I guess they could read and extra charge / weight / see it through a microscope, but couldn't tell exactly what the information was.
If anyone can find any reference to the gel drives, I'd be appreciative. And send them porn.
I was thinking more along the lines of a "Film behind, show it in front. Film to the left, show it to the right" type thing, but this would probably be equally as effective - especially when being viewed / attacked from the air:)

You could use this stuff on fabric along with tiny video cameras to create predator-style invisibility.
You should be kissing the butt of Mr Howard Marcus FreeBSD. He came up with the idea of FreeBSD, but his friend Ronald NothingToDoWithFreeBSD stole the idea and sold it on to MacroShift, who released the OS under the name "Gin Doze". The title suggested an alcohol-induced coma, so the product didn't sell very well at all. It was then that MacroShaft's CEO, Johnny Bottom decided to change the name to reflect a more political stance - Mr Bottom had just read in the newspaper about his friend Basil Smith-Dorchester being wrongly imprisoned. He started the Free Basil Smith-Dorchester campaign (or FreeBSD campaign) and renamed the software in his honour. Hence, FreeBSD.

That's fair enough. I also need to be free so I'm not joining the UTM.
I tried twice, and both times I got "it's only been 17 seconds". If only I'd learn to count to 20 everything would be good.
I do not belong to a tiny offshoot of the Liberate Apes Before Imprisoning Apes movement.
Who'd like to smell it?
Thanks very much. Please submit your testes to meeeeeeeeee.
Love you,

Roger Baxter, a convicted paedophile, was about to be released from jail but a severe stairwell beating left him quadro-spazzed on a lifeglug.
Congratulations. You've uncovered an old Alexei Sayle joke! Unfortunately you win nothing but this congratulatory message. :)
yeah, I realise that. But I needed to post something quick in order to gain the coveted FIRST POST!
:D
Thanks for clearing things up anyway.
So it's true then. Some variations of Linux are actually dying? :)
I don't like Linux Freeloader hippy bullshit Suck on Linus' cock
And of course SCROLLING MARQUEE TEXT!
and blinking
and popups
I was going to link all the pics up here "in case it gets slashdotted", but gay slashdot won't allow images. Fuckers.
It's not a bad idea. They just need to go and talk to Dr Heller. Say it with me - "Heller".
Woo! I got the FP here! WOOOO!!!!
Now bow down before the might of, uuh, mighty stuff.
It hit stores yesterday (21st) and comes to the UK on the 24th.
yeah baby. feel that hard drive as I drive it in hard.
Adams' final (I guess) He may have had a few more in progress, but I doubt he'll be finishing them anytime soon.

There's always some fuckup out there that'll trash it. Design a foolproof system, and only a fool will use it.
What about us contaminating mars? Those aliens won't be happy if they all start catching colds.

Why PC users need Apple Heere's why they should be kissing Apple's butt (instead of Microsoft's)
Or in the case of many slashdot readers, "instead of Linus'"
Wasn't there a slashdot story recently about how Sony said the PS3 will be waaaay more than this, and not be in production until at least 2010?
