    Hey, pudge, you're an editor. Could you do us all a favor and kick michael's ass? Oh, and maybe key taco's car too.

    Thanks

    When Slashdot first started [slashdot.org] these political stories, they promised to "do [their] best to be fair with story selection."

    However, when stories like this are posted I begin to wonder if they truly had any intention of being fair in the first place.


    Tell me about it. The hardly accept any of my submissions

  4. Re:A short history FAQ... on How To Build And Maintain A Good FAQ · · Score: 3, Interesting

    FAQs have been around since the beginning of the web & most of them still suck

    While I agree with the second part of this statement, FAQs significantly pre-date the web.


    Maybe he should have said, "The really started to suck at the beginning of the web." Most usenet FAQs I have read tended to be very good.

    You can bet that nobody wants to watch my home videos.

    No kidding. Homespun nerd TV shows would be like having tubgirl as Slashdot's background image. You'd have to look at something vile in addition to it spewing a bunch shit.

    Call me when they have something to cure a slashdot addiction.

    I have a one year cure - Post the output of this:

    To slashdot every two minutes for about 20 minutes. You will get banned for a year, able to only view a but ugly pink page saying as much.

    so.. desperate.. for gmail.... need gmail...

    Perfect chore for google. Search groups for "gmail invite", sorted by date, email the most recent people offering invites. I got my account in less than an hour that way. Milage may vary.

  22. Re:Internet Voting - No thanks on Two Faces of Electronic Voting · · Score: 1

    What I learned there is that any system that you don't have to show up and identify yourself before you vote is very easy to defraud...It's also why absentee ballots are scary.

    I agree internet voting would be harder to protect against fraud, but:

    In Washington state, you identify yourself by no other means than your signature.

    At the polls, you sign your name on the voter registry, get a ballot and vote.

    With absentee ballots, you put your ballot in a 'security envelope', then in another envelope which you sign. They verify you by an existing copy of your signature. You do not have to show ID at any point.

    It looks that way because of how the liberals and Kerry have been making such asses of themselves lately. The libs had it...and then they threw it away. -1 Troll.
