  2. Re:Sony = Bad News on Toshiba to Exchange 340,000 Laptop Batteries · · Score: 1

    Yes. Their PS3 processor is so over-powerful, it doesn't even need to waste time rendering your games! Instead, it's going to work on Curing Cancer!

  3. Re:Who is the battery supplier? on Toshiba to Exchange 340,000 Laptop Batteries · · Score: 1

    AC's can't read, but we still love you ...

    The batteries, made by Sony Corp., may fail to charge correctly, causing the power to cut off suddenly if the notebook is not connected to a mains outlet, said Toshiba spokesman Keisuke Ohmori.

    Toshiba's free battery exchange program covers 11 notebook models sold in Japan, five sold in the U.S. and 12 sold in Europe, including the Tecra A7, Satellite A100, Satellite M50 and Satellite pro M70

  5. I could already do this on A Triple-Standard Disk · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Thanks to Japan's Kao Corporation you may soon be able to rate a "bad hair day" on a scale of 1 to 10.

    I don't do it for the karma. I don't need the karma. I just want to feel loved. I wish you didn't post AC, cause we coulda talked some more.

    4. SQL Injection
    5. Unncessary and Vulnerable Services on Server


    Honestly, could my post be any more useful?

  9. The Plot Thickens on PS3 Downtime To Fight Disease · · Score: 1

    The Plot thickens. Now we have a better idea of why the price is going to be so high! We're paying to cure cancer! Well, it must be worth it then! Here sony, take my $600 dollars and my CPU time!

    And do what differently?

    Make it always display Pretty Pink Ponies.

    Care to point out some deficiency in the X codebase?

    I'm living in the past

  11. New Project - Redo X-Windows on Plasma: The Next-Generation KDE Environment Review · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    How about a new project called Redo X-Windows? Just a thought.

  12. PARENT INSIGHTFUL on Was the 2004 Election Stolen? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I'd mod you informative, insightful, or whatever else if I could.

  13. PDF good for classrooms on How Do You Share Presentations Under Linux? · · Score: 1

    I used PDF when teaching at my colleges. You know exactly what it's going to look like, and you know it's guaranteed to work / look the same no matter if you're stuck in a classroom with a Windows Box, Linux Box, or you suddenly get tossed in a corner with one of the school's crappy old laptops. PDF may not have the bells and whistle's of a PowerPoint, but for me, it gets the job done.

  14. MOD PARENT FUNNY on David Brin Laments Absence of Programming For Kids · · Score: 0

  15. Flame Baby Flame on David Brin Laments Absence of Programming For Kids · · Score: 4, Funny

    Kids that grow up to learn Python are more presentable and well mannered that those that grow up to learn Perl. Flame On!

    You know what's even funnier? The link I created in the Parent works! And it takes you to the /. home page! hahahahahahahahahahahaha

  17. Re:Slashdot really needs a dupe section on David Brin Laments Absence of Programming For Kids · · Score: 1

    That would be awesome! Like Pretty Pink Ponies (or unicorns, your preference)!

    I can imagine it would become the largest Slashdot section in about 1 month!

  18. Take that back on Zune's Viral DRM Will Violate Creative Commons · · Score: 4, Funny

    Zune accomplishes this amazingly stupid feat by wrapping shared music in a proprietary layer of DRM, regardless of what format the original content may be in. If Microsoft's claims are to be believed, this on-the-fly DRM will be seamless and automatic - which must be some kind of first for Microsoft.

    This story should be pulled immediately! Slashdot does not tolerate cheap shots towards Microsoft

  19. Re:How do you explain it? on NASA Testing Linux-Based Exploration Robots · · Score: 1

    No, that makes sense. It's running Linux

  20. Ahead of their time on Ultra HDTV on Display for the First Time · · Score: 1

  24. Re:Is it just me or is this old news? on Pro-DRM Law May Be Coming To Australia · · Score: 1

    Slashdot editors only consider articles "dups" if they've already been posted today. Previous days don't count.

  25. Re:Thanks a lot, George? on Pro-DRM Law May Be Coming To Australia · · Score: 1

    the little parting shot at the end just seems inflammatory

    Shouldn't the slashdot editors at least make a concious effort to be better than CNN, CBS, and FOX?
