  1. Re:Ask Slashdot: What are your fetishes? on The Creamy Center of the Atom · · Score: 1

    I enjoy turning my computer on.

  2. Re:Then? on The Creamy Center of the Atom · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    This is also off topic:

    I am really sick of our imperfections, especially when writing sentences using correct grammar. Why write 'why write "then" when you mean "than"?' when you could write 'Why write "then" when you mean "than?"' Do you really insist on correcting others' mistakes when you, yourself, can't even bother to use correct grammar and sentence structure yourself?

    Oh, the agony!

  3. Musicians should get paid directly on Sharing Increases Music Purchases? · · Score: 1

    I'd like it if the musicians were paid directly. It's pretty simple nowadays. Why should musicians go to a recording studio anymore? Recording equipment (PCs, basically) are cheap nowadays and mp3s (perhaps Ogg Vorbis someday) are the norm. Regardless, anyone can easily record their music into a file format on a computer and distribute it. It'd be nice if the recording industry was taken out of the picture entirely as if we really didn't need them. It used to be a viable business (ripping off the artists), but, is it anymore?

  4. Re:this is getting out of hand on When IT and Bad Government Meet, Everyone Loses · · Score: 1

    Because whether it was initially discussed on fark.com, wired.com, nytimes.com, or any other site whatsoever, I, among others, do not frequently visit those sites as news resources and am enjoying getting all the quality news from /.

  5. Re:no need to register, just generate a random log on Google vs. DMCA and Scientology · · Score: 1

    Now just allow it to automatically register and view without having each user to type in a link using a link similar to: Click here to read the article anonymously.

  6. Re:recycle? on Recycle Fee For Each PC? · · Score: 1

    No, they recycle their PCs. If you're so upset about the proposal and it goes into affect, I'll take your worries away. I'll give you $25 for the PC.

  7. Re:Well on On Hacktivism · · Score: 1

    hacker

    \Hack"er\, n. One who, or that which, hacks. Specifically: A cutting instrument for making notches; esp., one used for notching pine trees in collecting turpentine; a hack.

    It depends on what you hack. If you hack bodies, that's just wrong.

  8. Re:It was bad enough when I couldn't get into MSDN on U.S. Considers Microsoft Passport as National ID · · Score: 1

    Sorry, your card data seems to have no data. You do not exist.

  9. Re:MS Presentations on At the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference · · Score: 1

    To view this picture (if you use IE) input the following into the address bar:

    Note: Get rid of the space in "ima ges"

  10. Re:It's pretty clever on Instant Messenger or Instant Advertiser? · · Score: 1

    I was chatting with SmarterChild and I managed to get it to lead me to some interesting porn. Not just any porn, but, "Block structure porn."

    Check it out at http://drew.corrupt.net/lp/

    It's rather humorous.

  11. Pay to see swingers on Patent Granted on Sideways Swinging · · Score: 1

    You mean I can't charge people to watch me swing sideways anymore without worrying about an lawsuit?
    Just when I thought I hit it big...

  12. Re:The company behind it is Herbalife on Behind The "Work-At-Home" Street Spam Signs · · Score: 1

    I'd be surprised if the "Anonymous Cowards" weren't actually affiliated to Herbalife in any way.

  13. Re:The company behind it is Herbalife on Behind The "Work-At-Home" Street Spam Signs · · Score: 1

    Herbalife is in it for the money. Who cares if they ruin our lives making it; just as long as they make money. They found a viable method of taking over the curiosity of the weak-minded, unemployed, or want-to-get-rich-quick people.

  14. Re:Dell on Gateway Testifies To Microsoft's OEM Treatment · · Score: 1

    "We still offer [Linux] on the [corporate] side and as needed as customers ask for it," he said.

    I tried to get a Linux PC from Dell early December last year.

    According to Gene Cook at Dell "I gues MS just has too much power over us."
    This was stated when requesting (via email) to order a Dell Dimension 8200 PC with Linux pre-installed. It was denied.
    I then asked if it was possible to have a Dell Dimension 8200 PC with no O/S installed. Denied again.
    I was then advised (via phone call) the only way I could get PCs with Linux pre-installed was if I ordered at minimum twenty-five.
