I seem to remember from some soc. class this experiment where they took a rabbit and would play a tone and then blow air in the rabbits eye, and eventually it would learn to close its eye at the tone. Then they would cut that part of the brain out and the rabbit wouldn't remember to blink at the tone any more, but eventually it would relearn and then they could cut that new part of the brain out and it would keep re learning... So, I imagine if you could some how monitor the brain and see where the memorys were being stored while the person was storing the information that you could cut those bits out and the person would forget.
They also have it in the comments, people read the comments and then they repeat what was just said. And its also in the articles some times you get those back to back too.
"Ask Slashdot" which is under the category "Sections" which is under the "Stories" which is under "Slashdot" which is "News for Nerds. Stuff that matters."
So, you admit then that this really isn't a good Ask slashdot and it is just a hey look at us we're geeky because we care about muds. In wich case its still lame.
I love it when you see a slashdot post where the first half is in italics because its a quote, but then they leave off the closing/i and the whole thing is in italics.
Woah, you shouted an explative and got modded informative. Good work.
Its my opinion that the thinking of these people is a byproduct of an entire generation of people who were "raised" without parents who had parents who didn't set boundries. If your parents don't set boundries what boundries are you going to run into? The government, business, and The Man in general.

"This was done in both a spirit of cooperation and for the good of the internet as a whole"

I mean seriously, the guy asks a stupid question, the editor even seems to think theres a simple answer. I mean come on people.
Unless of couse the whole thing is just some kind of in joke then of course I feel like a complete idiot for not getting it.

A beowulf cluster of... wait never mind.
Really, I always had the impression that there were lots of mac lovers in Japan. They have a MacWorld over there every year I believe.

How much time do you spend on /. while at work? :)
I like to see how far I can shoot them over the wall :)
The high scores are all from this weird bug where his head goes through the wind shield and then bounces around like mad.
I'd love to see more options like seatbelts and multiple passengers head on collisions with other cars. Or or even a plane crash simulator.
As if redhat 9 counts as linux :)
Man, giving linux to your mom? Thats some scary.
LART?
Thats not really so bad. My dad thinks netscape has different content than IE. Like they're different internets.
If he thought google was the internet I could put him on Mozilla.
Huh huh, you said gstring. Huh, /beavis.
No, I stand by my comment. It is bullshit.
Reminds me of that movie "The Tao of Steve" though. Good flick.
