  1. 500th redundant joke on Wearable Computer Expedition Reaches South Pole · · Score: -1, Redundant
    May I present to you the:


    500th joke about penguins


    500th joke about overclocking at the south pole


    500th joke about computers running M$/linux



    Victims of mod abuse...how many are there?

    which version of IE? I found that IE 5.0 not only has problems, but sometimes crashes from the page widening. It screws up the screen on 5.5 too.

    The average Joe Q Slashdot reader may read slashdot at -1. He, rightly so,

    thinks some -1 is underrated and actually some of it is very good stuff.

    However, he gets quickly annoyed by the -1 page widenings and simply moves his

    threshold to 0 or 1. So now you have all the regular "good citizens of

    slashdot" reading slashdot at higher thresholds. So nobody is reading at -1.

    Now, Crap Flounderson says his intention is to destroy slashdot. However, it's

    obvious his attention is just to flaunt his own ego(much like the numerous

    linux zealots) because page widening no longer works(as everyone has found the

    workaround to go to a higher threshold).

    That would be fine if it weren't for the fact that page widening is having an

    ADVERSE affect to the time honored art of trolling. Trolls post at -1 to be

    seen. If noone sees their work, trolls get bored with slashdot. So what page

    widening is essentially doing, is running off the trolls. And this is why it

    won't be fixed. CmdrTaco wins. The trolls have run off, and all the

    "upstanding" citizens of slashdot are reading and posting at higher

    thresholds. This is hardly contributing to the destruction of slashdot.

  5. The problem with DVHS on Copy-Protected Digital VHS · · Score: -1

    They have instituted a write feature that allows the player to write the unique id of the player anytime you attempt to copy it, whether it copies or actually fails. This allows the copy to be traced back to the original player. This is in addition to stricter copy protecting measures. A friend of mine who works at JVS says this thing is less consumer-friendly than anything MS makes.

    If you haven't done so already, we recommend you make the switch to Microsoft Windows 2000 Server. And here are a few reasons why:

    * Windows 2000 Server has up to 99.999% availability. That's about as good as it gets, in our eyes.(ed. up to could mean anywhere from 0% to 99.999%. I guess their eyes haven't seen a netware or *nix box lately)

    * Active Directory allows you to manage your networks from a central location. So you can customize your security settings and grant access to different parts of your network with a single sign-in. Plus, it's completely scalable. (ed. Don't forget to mention you stole the idea from Novell)

    * Windows 2000 Server's integrated Web technologies are based entirely on Internet standards, which makes writing enterprise-level, directory-enabled application a snap. (ed. someone point me to the Active-x standards please?)

    * You get a unified file and print infrastructure for sharing and publishing information. (ed. also included: free exploits!)

    * Windows 2000 Server supports more than 4,000 third-party applications (ed. most poorly made in a 3rd world VB programming sweat shop)

    In light of major corporation sponsership of Linux, including companies such as HP and IBM, Microsoft has announced they will be releasing Windows on Linux.

    "We have decided the core linux OS is in dire need of a GUI which actually works," says Richard Belzer, Sr. Marketing Representative. "KDE and Gnome do not offer the performance of our products"

    But don't look for Windows XP for Linux anytime soon, Microsoft has decided to rollout Windows 95 for Linux.

    "Windows 95 both performs better than any GUI Linux offers, and also has more application support," stated Mr. Belzer. "We are assuming that because the average Linux user is used to GUI's such as KDE and GNOME, which are sluggish and problematic, that Windows 95 would actually be a step up for them."

    Windows 95 for Linux is expected to be released by Fall 2002.
