Myth: The second Amendment of the US Constitution gives all Americans the
right to own guns, and it is our duty to keep ourselves well armed in case we
need to fight against our own government. Fact: 1996 gun murders in the US: 9390; in Great Britain: 30. If you
support the fascist conservatives who oppose gun control, these deaths are on
your head. Sleep tight. Also, we have a word for individuals who actively fight
against the government - terrorists.
Myth: Hahaha, those jocks who used to pick on me in high school are now
pumping my gas! HA. Fact: Those "jocks" are probably mid or upper-level management, e.g. your
bosses now. That is, if you're not unemployed, you dot-com open-source
loser.They probably all have wives/girlfriends now too, do you?
Myth: The MPAA is using our own government against us, and taking away
our freedoms! Fact: Typical Slashdot weenie: "I can't wait 'til the new Star Wars movie
comes out! Rock on!"
Myth: It's ok to download music because the RIAA only gives the artists
$0.10 per CD anyway. Fact: So you'd rather they get $0.00? You think that's a good way to
solve the problem?
Myth: Microsoft is going to collapse under it's own weight any day
now. Fact: You've been saying that for 5 years now, and it hasn't happened
yet. It won't happen any time soon. In fact, when you die, Microsoft will still
be around producing most of the world's software. Will "open-source" still be
around then?
Excellent analysis, good sir. You may want to examing this post and its replies if you seek more information on the trolling phenomenon and how it relates to the signal to noise ratio.
Myth: Linux is ready for the desktop. Fact: Linux is not, and never will be, ready for the desktop. If you use
Linux as your desktop choice, you are an anti-social nerd who will never get
laid.
Myth: Open-source is a viable business strategy. Fact:No
it isn't.
Myth: Slashdot is a nice place to go for intelligent conversation
about technology and political issues. Fact: Slashdot is full of 14 year-old fanboys who toe the party line for
the "approval" of people they will never meet and fascist Janitors who resort to
low minded trickery and censorship to further their narrow world-view and
agenda. If you want to read posts that are Insightful and Funny, read at -1.
Myth: Information wants to be free. Fact: Musicians want to be paid.
Myth: Constantly putting down popular music and culture shows your
uber-intelligence and good taste. Fact: Constantly putting down popular music and culture shows you are a
stuck-up fuckwit with no friends.
Myth: The government is taking away our rights. WAAAAH!! Fact: While you're busy complaining and stuffing your fat face with pork
rinds and cheese puffs, the government is busy keeping you, and the American way
of life, safe from harm.
Myth: Libertarianism is a good solution to our problems. Fact: Libertarianism would result in a worse country than the USSR, with
political and economic instability, horrific human rights violations, and
exploitation of workers of a scale not seen since slavery was outlawed.
Myth: Microsoft is an evil monopoly bent on world domination. Fact: Microsoft is a software company based in Redmond, WA, that produces
fine software and believes that programmers should get paid for their
work.
It happens every day. You've seen it happen to your family and friends - yes,
it's probably even happened to you. And the number, and intensity, of incidences
is increasing. Every day, all over the world, innocent normal people are
being almost violently accosted by ranting, raving Linux Zealots. You may be
asking, "But why is it getting worse, isn't Linux's 15 minutes of fame almost
over?" Yes, Linux is almost dead, but that's exactly why it's getting worse.
It's a simple matter of how socially inferior "humans"(I put this term in
quotations because these people rarely show any humanity) act under certain
types of pressure. They attach themselves irrationaly to a concept, product,
brand name, or in this case, fad. We've seen it with OS/2 Zealots, BSD Zealots,
BeOS Zealots, and Amiga Zealots. We see it everyday on the news with Christian
Zealots like John Ashcroft and George W. Bush.
You see, certain types of socially inept people have a tendency to attach
themselves to something and refuse to let go with zeal. As the fad dies out and
the rest of the
world moves on, these zealots will hold on to their idol with alarming tenacity.
You do not want to be around these people, but unfortunately it is sometimes out
of your control. Therefore, I have prepared some advice in the form of
various situations should you ever come upon a Linux Zealot.
Situation 1: On the Internet
This is where the majority of Linux Zealot attacks occur, since Linux Zealots
have no social life and rarely leave their computers. Fortunately for you, this
type of situation is the easiest to avoid with the use of a little precaution
and common sense. First and foremost, stay away from known Linux Zealot sites
like Slashdot and Kuro5hin. These sites are well known for
promoting software theft and music piracy, among other kinds of
law-breaking activity. Do not take this warning as an invitation to go to
Slashdot and try to change the minds of the wayward Linux Zealots. Many
intelligent people have tried this and failed miserably, for Linux Zealots are
extremely close-minded and will not listen to logic. It doesn't matter how many
times you tell them that Windows 2000 and WindowsXP don't crash and that Linux
sucks for the desktop, they will not listen to you. Instead you will be lost in
a sea of angry Linux Zealots. Also, do not get depressed thinking that your
options on the Internet are now limited, there are many fine sites featuring intelligent
conversation available.
Situation 2: At work/school settings
This situation is the potentially most embarrassing and damaging to your life.
The situation usually plays out thusly: you are at work or school when a
co-worker or acquaintance tries to introduce you to a Linux Zealot. Often-times
this Linux Zealot will try to move in on your social activities. Do not let
this
happen. This is very important. If you let a Linux Zealot be seen with you in
public, it WILL ruin your life. You will lose all your friends, and no
girl will ever talk to you again. How do you identify a Linux Zealot? This is
very easy - Linux Zealots will either be extremely scrawny or extremely obese.
They will
be very dirty, poorly dressed (many times with ill-fitting Linux or Thinkgeek
shirts), and the odor will be unbearable. If a Linux Zealot tries to befriend
you, you must make it clear that you are better than him and that you will not
socialize with him. Ridicule him, let him know his lower status in society.
Call security or threaten to sue for harrassment if he doesn't leave you alone.
Don't be afraid to use violence if it becomes necessary.
Situation 3: Random public encounters
These are probably the rarest of Linux Zealot encounters, and are usually
pretty easy to avoid. If you see a Linux Zealot walking down the sidewalk or
hallway, do not make eye contact. Turn your head away from the Linux Zealot. If
he tries to engage you in conversation, do not respond. Continue walking away
from the Linux Zealot at a brisk pace. If the Linux Zealot persists, call for
help from the nearest security guard or police officer. If you are female, it
is advisable to carry pepper spray and/or a stun gun at all times. Linux
Zealots are very skittish around females and their behavior will be erratic.
Now you should know everything you need to know to keep yourself safe from Linux Zealots. Good Luck!
I just saw the new Star Wars movie on TV. That thing was terrible. The special
effects were amateruish at best. Is this because they used Linux to render it?
Movies made a decade ago had better effects.
The one they made a few years ago was great, they need to switch back to real
Unix or Windows or whatever they used for that one. George Lucas has really
lost it.
My advice, stay away from this movie. It is not worth the 2.5 hours.
When erect, my penis curves slightly to the left. Is this abnormal? Also, right
after I ejaculate, the top half of my penis (the half nearer the tip) gets
slightly thicker or "puffier" than the other half. Is this from too much masturbating?
Please help.

When will you Slashbots get your heads out of your elitist asses?!? Nobody cares about privacy because everybody but you idiots has figured out that we have no privacy! And we shouldn't expect to have any if we're fighting a War on Terrorism. You do remember that thing with the jets crashing into buildings a few months ago right? Do you want that to happen again?
Mozilla's open-source license doesn't mean jack when you realize that the vast majority of the work has been done by paid AOL employees(and it's still a piece of shit). If AOL had never been there, it would have taken 20 years to get to 1.0 instead of 4 or 5 years.
Also, Mozilla is little more than a political card to AOL. There are few if any companies that want to use anything other than IE - and why not, it's the best available.
How can I convince my girlfriend to let me cum on her face? I've been begging
for two months, only to be constantly refused. Finally, last night, I did it
while she was sleeping. Now, she's all mad at me. What can I do? Please
help.
Thank you for your kind words. Yes, I did indeed write that troll a few weeks ago, but I've only used it once or twice. Mad propz to you for your hard work in Crapflooding and Trolling Slashdot.
As many of you know by now, Slashdot has had a new feature for some time of
separating out the sections. For example, all science stories go into
science.slashdot.org. Indeed, the sections are now color-coded, with the Apple section displaying a new "glossy" look.
Now, this is all fine, but the Slashdot Janitors are
missing out on a real opportunity to improve the site. Most of the people on
this site are Trolls and Crapflooders, but where, I ask, is the
fp.slashdot.org, containing an archived copy of every single legitimate fp? Or the locally cached image of hello.jpg on
goatsecx.slashdot.org for load times faster than people can hit the "stop"
button? If Slashdot wants to remain popular, it needs to focus on pleasing the
majority of it's user-base. Perhaps clicking on "Read More" would randomly
display a page full of "*BSD is dying" rather than the usual inane drivel
Slashbots spew forth.
These are the kinds of features I would expect of a professional web-site, and
as long as Slashdot doesn't have them, I'm not considering paying for a
subscription. I urge you to do the same.
The federal government has lots of bombs, so piss on the Constitution. They can do anything they want, and if you don't like it, MOVE TO CUBA! HAHAHAHAHA.
You should join the Libertarian Party. We don't pay taxes because it's not in the Constitution, and if the Federal Gub'mint comes to collect, well, we still have our guns right? HAHAHAHAHAHA.
