Has anyone else noticed the increase in posts being labelled as trolls? I can't seem to understand. Maybe this is due to the fact that the moderators are butt buddies with that ass clown Katz and the rest of the slashdot crew.
I don't think I can agree with the statement "Alan Cox is one of the most influential IT innovators in the world".
Also what is he talking about when he says that Linux is stable? My RedHat 8.2 system isn't stable. I've even tried to upgrade the kernel to version 2.5.4-dj1 and still get no stability. I think this guy has Linux way up his ass.
ICE ICE BABY
(Vanilla Ice, Earthquake, M. Smooth) - Yo VIP, Let's kick it! - Ice Ice Baby... Ice Ice Baby
All right stop - Collaborate and listen - Ice is back with my brand new invention
Something grabs ahold of me tightly - Then I flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop? Yo-- I don't know - Turn off the lights and I'll glow - To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle
Dance
Bum rush the speaker that booms - I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly, when I play a dope melody - Anything less than the best is a felony
Love it or leave it - You better gain way - You better hit bull's eye
The kid don't play - If there was a problem - Yo, I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
Now that the party is jumping - With the bass kicked in, and the Vegas are pumpin'
Quick to the point, to the point no faking - Cooking MC's like a pound of bacon
Burning them if they're not quick and nimble
I go crazy when I hear a cymbal - And a hi hat with a souped up tempo
I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo - Rollin' in my 5.0
With my ragtop down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby - Waiting just to say Hi
Did you stop? No-- I just drove by - Kept on pursuing to the next
I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block
That block was dead - Yo-- so I continued to A1A Beachfront Ave.
Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis - Rockman lovers driving Lambourghinis
Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine - Shay with the guage and Vanilla with a nine
Reading for the chumps on the wall - The chumps acting ill because they're so full of eight balls
Gunshots ranged out like a bell - I grabbed my nine-- All I heard was shells - Falling on the concrete real fast
Jumped in my car, slammed on the gas - Bumper to bumper the avenue's packed
I'm trying to get away before the jackers jack - Police on the scene - You know what I mean
They passed me up, confronted all the dope fiends
If there was a problem - Yo, I'll solve it - Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
Take heed 'cause I'm a lyrical poet - Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it
My town, that created all the bass sound - Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
'Cause my style's like a chemical spill - Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel
Conducted and formed - This is a hell of a concept
We make it hype and you want to step with this
Shay plays on the fade, slice like a ninja - Cut like a razor blade so fast
Other DJ's say, "damn" - If my rhyme was a drug I'd sell it by the gram
Keep my composure when it's time to get loose - Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice
If there was a problem - Yo-- I'll solve it! - Check out the hook While Deshay revolves it.
Those other countries also have a different government than ours. I agree some people need help getting back on their feet or even a boost to get above the poverty line. But some of the people in the system are freeloaders that have little value to our society as a whole. Other countries governments allow for this and they help these people out - the US doesn't and shouldn't.
Why should I (as a tax payer) help support someone who doesn't want to work. Why should they be allowed to live above the poverty line when they're not even trying?
Any given story posted to slashdot's main page will inevitably result in few 'insightful', 'informative', or
'interesting' comments. While you may be asking yourself - I see all kinds of these posts for every story!
Well...you can be assured that this is due to the fact that the people who are moderating these posts - are MORONS!
It amazes me how one group of people can think they've got it figured out and everyone else out there is an
idiot for not feeling the same way they do. This of course is the sentiment of 99.9% of slashdot commentators who
always are pushing that in any case - LINUX is the choice that should be made - no matter what. It's this kind of
closed mindedness that hurts the reputation of Linux and shows to most of the world that people who use Linux are
absolute jackass morons.
Slashdot - while the concept seems somewhat interesting lacks several things. One of which is content. Now
the site says, 'News for nerds, Stuff that matters'...this is far from true. Let's examine a little more closely.
The phrase 'News for nerds' - well being that nerd is a rather broad topic these days, slashdot's editors have
opened the content engine up from interesting and cutting edge articles to crap such as 'AOL vs. Trillian' a topic
that has been beaten to death by many other crappy articles about AOL blocking access to their network resources.
Why do the editors allow such crap to pass by? Because they see it as a chance for more of their impotent jerk off
user base to spew their load of crap along to anyone who will pass by and read this gay and moronic comment. Ok,
now onto the 'Stuff that matters'... I have seen may one article posted to slashdot's main page which in any way
MATTERS in the true sense of the word. Does it really MATTER that AOL has blocked Trillian's access to the aim
servers? No, it doesn't. Does it really matter if TrustE has a bad idea about how to stop spam - no...It sure
doesn't. As we can all see...not only does the site suck - so does its slogan.
Now...more onto the user base which constantly feels the need to post inane comments that have more to do
about inner crying because the world is not working the way they want it to. "But this is crap...why is AOL doing
this - is this legal?" Good input jack off. Perhaps some of you who post such stupidity will realize that you are
not only wasting your time, but in turn everyone who reads your comments grows more moronic and stupid by the day.
Hopefully there will be no intelligent/insightful posts about this crap that Katz spews out for all of us to be sickened by. Then maybe he will just stop writing and quit.
AT&T Deploys Cisco Optical Solutions for Nationwide Intelligent Optical Network
Cisco ONS 15454 and Cisco Transport Manager to Deliver Service Variety and Velocity for Landmark Next Generation Network
SAN JOSE, Calif., February 11, 2002 - Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO), the worldwide leader in networking for the Internet, today announced that AT&T has deployed the Cisco ONS 15454 SONET Multiservice Platform and Cisco Transport Manager, components of Cisco's Complete Optical Multiservice Edge and Transport (COMET) portfolio, in its nationwide intelligent optical network. Currently connecting more than 40 cities nationwide and carrying live customer traffic, the carrier's new intelligent optical network will carry Private Line, Internet, voice, data and video traffic while restoring service faster in the event of a failure or disaster and significantly improving service delivery intervals.
"With these Cisco platforms at the edge of our intelligent optical network, AT&T is able to maximize service variety, bringing all types of traffic to our customers cost-effectively, densely packed onto single fibers while significantly improving service velocity through rapid and efficient provisioning," said George W. Gawrys, director of transport network planning, AT&T Laboratories. "AT&T continues its leadership in optical networking by deploying these next-generation technologies to build a revolutionary intelligent optical network and deliver even greater value to our customers."
After a comprehensive evaluation, AT&T chose the Cisco products because their functionality matched AT&T's reliability and operational requirements. Systems passed rigorous certification testing at the AT&T Laboratories in New Jersey and are now carrying live customer traffic on the AT&T network.
"Cisco understands the extreme importance of reliability and high availability in today's service provider networks. Information is rapidly becoming the most valuable asset to the enterprise customer, and having access to that information from anywhere, at anytime, is crucial to business success," said Bill Nuti, senior vice president, worldwide service provider operations, Cisco Systems. "Meeting the rigorous certification requirements of AT&T Laboratories is a significant achievement that underscores Cisco's commitment to our service provider customers."
The market-leading Cisco ONS 15454 is a key building block of AT&T's intelligent optical network. In this deployment, the ONS 15454 provides efficient multi-service aggregation of lower-rate customer traffic up to high-speed (OC-48 or OC-192) pipes for routing across the network. The ONS 15454 also delivers bandwidth scalability in a low-cost, small footprint system that automatically provisions circuits at a variety of bit-rate speeds (from 1.5 Mbps to 10 Gbps, and Gigabit Ethernet). Cisco Transport Manager, the single integrated optical element management system for the entire Cisco COMET portfolio, provides efficient automation of provisioning and maintenance functions for the ONS 15454. As part of AT&T's intelligent optical network, more than 100 Cisco ONS 15454 platforms are deployed today, with significantly more planned for the future. Some of these will be installed on customers' premises and others in the AT&T metropolitan and long-distance networks.
"AT&T's revolutionary nationwide intelligent optical network harnesses the capabilities of today's leading technologies to bring greater productivity to customers through efficient delivery of high value services," said Jayshree Ullal, group vice president, optical networking group, Cisco Systems. "This deployment also marks a strategic milestone for Cisco as we continue to drive innovation through the Cisco COMET optical strategy to meet the unique requirements of our service provider customers."
Through its Cisco COMET strategy and portfolio, Cisco develops innovative technologies to help drive profitability and productivity for its service provider and enterprise customers. With carrier class functionality, products like the ONS 15454 are designed to meet the stringent criteria for quality, reliability and flexibility while enabling greater service velocity and variety.

Thanks...I had more to say - but the lameness filter kept denying it for it's usual gay reasons.
Today has been a good day.
The lamesness filter is broken and is sucks.
Katz is a fag.

Anyways this thread is way off topic anyways.
Whatever, you make it sound like the US is somehow or in some way stopping people from getting the food their need to survive.
you're a jackass
Certainly...if you don't want your DSL/Cable provider to make money - simply call them once or twice a month with a stupid question

because you change access points does not mean you have to change your IP address jack ass.
I am President Al Gore
I OWN all of you. You are using my internet that I built with my blood, sweat, and tears.
I OWN all of you. When I first thought about creating this 'information superhighway' thing, I knew it would be great.
I OWN all of you. Now I see the error of my ways. When I originally created the INTERNET I figured there wouldn't be sooooo many people.
I OWN all of you. So what did I do? The dope I am - used IPv4.
I OWN all of you. What is your (as in the 'tech' community) solution? IPv6? I have never heard of such a stupid idea.
I OWN all of you. I worked very hard to come up with 32 bit addressing and now you are going to ruin it.
I OWN all of you. The INTERNET (which I invented) was created for the 'elite' in this society.
I OWN all of you. The fact that you are all here makes me sick. I have a new plan to create another INTERNET.
I OWN all of you. I have decided that I will be creating INTERNET 2.
I OWN all of you. Some people have even given credit to others for creating things such as the www
I OWN all of you. I can assure you this incorrect. I was doing the www in 1969 while everyone else was in Vietnam.
I OWN all of you. Some people think I am just a bleeding left wing liberal crack ass...they are not correct.
I OWN all of you. I am the collective minds of all the industry greats. John Gage, John Chambers, and the guy who invented Visual Basic.
I OWN all of you. So...do me a favor and get off my internet. I need the 10 gig links to setup many many mirrors to www.goatse.cx.
Thank You.
Hopefully there will be no intelligent/insightful posts about this crap that Katz spews out for all of us to be sickened by. Then maybe he will just stop writing and quit.
Thank You.
Katz - you suck.
You didn't provide a link...how am I as your typical slashdot reader supposed to learn anything if I can't click a link?
I will comment on your big top anyways...it's nice! I don't think it will work though. Does it run linux?
I think you'll be able to accomplish it...there is still plenty of time in the day.
DAMN YOU!
primeiro borne! primo alberino! erster Pfosten! première distribution! primer poste! Phyrst P05t!
Perhaps you are correct. I'm just glad to be back and trolling again. It seemed like that 72 hour ban was much longer than 72 hours.
Today's Lunch:
On a side note, I am not hungry today - so I will not be having lunch. I will skip directly to dinner.
Today's Dinner:
For dinner I plan on cooking up some spaghetti with meat sause. On the side you ask? I think some tossed salad might do me well.
Thank You.
