I thought the whole point of Remote Desktops was that you could do USEFUL work. Just try getting that stupid genie-wibbling-dock thing to work over a 33.6 Modem. Major pain.
In Nazi Germany, Jews were labelled as being 'different' by being forced to wear Yellow Stars. After the introduction of Subscriptions, Slashdot culture has divided into the "elite" and the "unwashed masses". Talk was made of letting subscribers have Gold Stars next to their Usernames.
For a pseudo-libertarian gestalt like Slashdot culture, to suddenly shift to a "two tier" system of "haves" and "have nots" is clearly WRONG. How can we believe the credo "Information wants to be free" when Slashdot has taken one more step towards becoming a subscription only format.
Look at the ghetto of -1 postings. Good, well reasoned, thought out postings, such as this one, are doomed to languish at the bottom of the pile. Rendered UNREADABLE by the actions of crapflooders and page wideners. Slashdot has the power to fix the page widening posts, but CHOOSES NOT TO.
Why? Because they only appear on Internet Explorer, and only appear at -1. Therefore abusers of the Slashdot community are clearly targetting a supposed 'minority' of users.
This is just another form of racism. I choose to use Internet Explorer as it is the most stable, most reliable, most standards compliant browser available. To ask an IE user to change their browser would be like asking a Jew to grow their foreskin back. DISCRIMINATION.
I also choose to read at -1, for this is where the truth is written.
Ask yourself why Slashdot would WANT to discriminate so blatently against -1 IE browsers. The answer is simple.
CONTROL. The editors seek to viciously and pitifully control what YOU read, but yet they still espouse freedom as if it still means something to them.
Forms of filtering the adverts out, (Which, if you check the latest hooks they've added to Slash, shall soon become more disruptive. Pop-unders, interstitials, etc.) are treated with, of all things, FUD by the Slashdot editors. Then code is added INSTANTANEOUSLY to Slashdot to remove the Ad filtering userbox code. BUT WHY DON'T THEY FIX PAGE WIDENING.
Clearly Slashdot is dying, and shall surely become the haven of Warez traders. For Warez traders ALSO espouse freedom, whilst trading their foul DDos code to restrict the freedom of others.
But not as hilarious as the knowledge that Linux programmers are being made redundant left, right and center, while even the most perfunctory MCSE drone has job security.
The X-Box has been available in Europe for the past TWELVE HOURS. And yet Slashdot hasn't posted a SINGLE article about it.
Remember when the Playstation Two came out? All Sony had to do was FART and the Slashdrones were fawning all over them.
There is a CLEAR BIAS on the part of the editorial team, which can only lead them in one direction...
... To the welfare queue.

Slashdot rejected my "X-Box launches in Europe" story. The anti-Microsoft bias is even MORE obvious, considering how many equivalent PS2 stories were posted.
Slashdot LOVES the PS2. Which is interesting, because Sony has done more damage towards the lack of freedom to copy media for personal use than Microsoft ever has!

Cherish my balls as though they were middle-east peace.
What? Blown as far apart as possible by the Islamic Menace?
And no, I wasn't talking German!

Is it pining for the vas deferens?
Are you from France?
Flop box is very amusing. I'd recommend "EX-Box" myself, as it allows for some Pythonesque humour.
It's still shifted more units than all the boxed retail copies of Linux combined.
Funny how the Microsoft ads display just as quickly as the others though!
Throwing paper aeroplanes at buildings made out of Red, White and Blue Legos.
Why no mention of the X-Box European Launch, Slashbots???
And yes, I DID submit a story.
Fist Sport.
Imagine Lotus Notese.cx. With everyone's favourite distended anus leering out at you in a rectal parody of the Office Assistant.
Don't forget all the shortcut keys and toolbar icons corresponding to OS/2 instead of the host O/S. Geez, it's a shitty system.
Best First Post Ever!

TOTAL FUCKING NECRO!!! Waaarrrggghhh!!!!
Filthy Black Shit!
I can fit three of them underneath my foreskin.
At once.
Chainmail was the PREDECESSOR to D&D, not the other way round.
I'm getting too old for this shit!
Has he ever apologised for all those shit games he brought out post D&D?
Who cares about web security? The web's only a homosexual's butt toy anyway! Heterosexual programmers use EDI for important data transfer!
Search Engines help me find kiddie porn. I like the way they make me cum.
Q. What's better than winning gold in the Paralympics?
A. Not being a fucking disabled wheelchair drooling 'tard!
You'll mark me down, but you KNOW it's true!
Yet more legal recourse to screwing the little guy. Well done, anti-Microsoft dickheads.
Fist Sport.
It's about half an inch now, and shriveling further.
That's what too much slashdot does to you.
