  1. *yawn* on Digital Music's 2001 Winners and Losers · · Score: -1

    We could get an interesting discussion going about the tech tricks required for the big euro conversion, instead we're hashing over the same beat-to-mush topics like digital music. Way to be boring, Slashdonkeys.

  2. oh ok on Flying on Mars · · Score: -1

    My browser isn't recognizing them. I'm reading them as a bunch of ASCII. Time to upgrade to IE 6, the superior browser.

  3. Hey WIPO, on Flying on Mars · · Score: -1

    What's with all the "" junk in your posts? What browser you using?

  4. My Linux style is the best on Hurd: H2 CD Images · · Score: -1

    This is why MSWindows dominates. Microsoft is a serious software company which employs dedicated professionals who work toward developing the best possible operating system and related software. The Linux community consists of a bunch of smelly hobbyists who get caught up in endless pissing contests over issues like microkernel vs. mnolithic kernel. Time to learn C# and VBScript, squirts.

  5. Expanding muscle power in my pants on Flying on Mars · · Score: -1

    It's called the ATP cycle. Stay awake in biology class next time.

  6. first post! on DVD Drives Defeat Cactus Data Shield · · Score: -1

    w00t! I rule!

  7. I have your Cactus Data Shield in my pants on DVD Drives Defeat Cactus Data Shield · · Score: -1

    The reason Linux companies are all bankrupt is that the people running them are unrepentant theives of intellectual property. Would you buy an OS from a bunch of shameless crooks? I thought not.

  8. They leave the best part for the end... on Audio Fingerprinting Via Cell Phones · · Score: -1
    Copyright protection agencies could also use the technology to identify and catalogue which songs played on the radio.
    As well, a legitimate online music services running on the Napster model could use the technology to stop copyright-protected material from being shared.

    In other words: yet more snoopware, making it easy for music companies to guard their profits, and making more of a pain in the ass for the rest of us to listen to music. This technology should be used in a buttplug instead of a cell phone. It'd be more appropriate.

  9. Bo-ring on Smalltime Wireless ISPs · · Score: -1
    Yeah, smalltime wireless isp's are making out, but that's only because the big wireless companies got greedy, set unrealistic goals, and fucked up their business plans.

    As soon as big telecoms figure out how to do wireless right (hint: by closely observing how the little guys do it), they'll march right in and buy up/squeeze out small business. They've got tons of money and economies of scale to boot.

    Mr. Schaefer and his birdshit-covered radio will last about as long as the pony express. If he know's what's good for him, he'll sell out quick.

  10. Good news... on Google Expands Usenet Archive to 20 Years · · Score: 0

    ...for Marc Collins-Rector, Chad Shackley, and Brock Pierce: now they can download all that kiddie porn on those defunct pedophile newsgroups. Gives new meaning to the term "Digital Entertainment Network!"

  11. Slow news day on 3D Images Of Valles Marineris · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    What I want to see are some spectacular 3d renderings of the Valles Pubis of Natalie Portman. If unavailable, I'll settle for Naomi Watts or that chick from The Matrix and Memento.

  12. Sux0rZ! on World Govs Choose Linux For Security & More · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Everyone with more than two brain cells to rub together knows that Linux is just as prone to exploits as M$ft Windows, if not more so. It's just that script kiddies haven't been devoting as much attention to cracking the boxen. If Linux proliferates more, and especially as Linux gets used in high-security government purposes, the "A Patchy" servers will really start earning their names, as sysadmins start putting in serious overtime trying to keep up with the bombardment of worms, virii, Ddos attax, etc...

  13. Bullshit Article on Christmas Spam Level Skyrocketing · · Score: 0
    The article is practically spam itself. It states that "junk email" is up 650%, then neglects to define what "junk email" might be (evidently they mean any non-work related email, the fascists)! A fucking penis enlargement device message is more informative.

    Speaking of junk, here's the gayest email chain-letter ever. Enjoy.

  14. PC bullshit on Terminator 3: Attack of the Terminatrix · · Score: 0
    OK so now you have a chick terminator, next there'll be a black terminator, and a gay terminator who's just fabulous at hunting down and killing his target, and then a terminator in a wheelchair...

    The first movie was good, the second one sucked, the third probably will, too: how many fucking times is John Conner going to save the world?

  15. It's no joke on Slashback: Authors, Innards, Boson · · Score: -1, Flamebait
    Seriously: under the PATRIOT legislation, propagating email viruses is a crime. If they wanted to, the FBI would be justified in busting in and arresting anyone who opens the "goner" attachment.

    America is turning totally into a fascist hell. Anyone with any sense should ditch that nazi country and move to Europe, where at least there's some hope for the future.

  16. Hey! Look evrybody! on Archos Announces Portable Mediabox · · Score: -1
    Post was copied from post a few posts above (just in case you didn't fucking notice yourself)!

    Wow! Thanks, eagle-eye. Slashdot is safe form plagarists as long as vigilant readers like you are around! You get a gold star!

  17. ExCUSE me... on Archos Announces Portable Mediabox · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I'm trying to enjoy News for Nerds, Stuff that Matters! Please find another site to post links to the photos from your family reunion.

  18. dont tell them how to eat donuts on U.S. Department of Interior Ordered Offline · · Score: 1, Funny
    CD: Hold off on the blaming of MS, it's still not clear.

    Dude, the geeks around here blame Micro$oft every time their shit comes out the wrong consistency. If you expect them to pass up an opportunity like this, you're dreaming.

  19. Helpful hints from those who know on Portable GameCube · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    When you finally decide that it would be a good idea to spend $400.00 on a portable Gamecube, just so you can enjoy Super Monkeyball, Zelda MCXDVIII, and WaveRace anywhere, anytime, it's actually a sign that you should just give up trying to have any kind of a life, become a raging homosexual, and spend the rest of your days sucking cock in men's restrooms.

  20. EQ Ebay inquiry on EQ 'Shadow of Luclin' -- Pretty Graphics, Ugly Release · · Score: 0

    I have a level 5 sword of Zorkon with the frost enchantment. IS it worth selling on ebay, or should I hang on to it? I used it last night and really kicked ass on a bunch of vampire lizard assassins

  21. I can't make up my mind... on Electronic Paper · · Score: 1
    Which is the more useless example of "digital age" innovtive bullshit no well-adjusted adult will ever need: "interactive television" or "e-paper"?

    How a bout e-toilet paper? You run a current through it and it automatically incinerates your shitsmears, so it's reusable: you only ever need 1 bunch of the stuff. Now there's an improvement on an already existing product.

  22. Twice the storage, almost half the price... on Treó 10: Another Portable Mass Storage Device · · Score: 1

    ...and it's Windows compatible! Yeeess! Three for three! Once again a superior device is released that reveals an Apple device to be the glitzy, overpriced chunk of geek-toy crap it really is.

  23. Woohoo! More shuttle missions! on Space Shuttle Endeavour Launches (at last) · · Score: 0, Troll

    What a joke. How much longer are the American taxpayers going to let NASA waste our dollars on these "scientific" efforts? They should just turn the space program into a for-profit tourist service for bored billionaires, and spend our tax dollars on something useful like a superconducting supercollider or an AIDS vaccine.
