I like most of my generation grew up watching the Smurfs. I loved them so much that I tuned in every Saturday morning to see what crazy hijinks those lovable little blue creatures would get up to.
It is just now that I have realized what I was really tuning into each and every Saturday morning was in actuality Socialist Propaganda!! Yes that is correct, Papa Smurf and all of his little Smurf minions are not the happy little characters Hanna Barbara would have us believe! The cartoon was really created by the Russian government in order to indoctrinate the youngest members of western society with Socialist beliefs and ideals thus destroying their resistance to the imminent Russian invasion that was to occur when this generation (my generation) grew up.
To prove my point I submit that 1.) They live in a communal village and are discouraged to leave the village without the company of their fellow Smurfs. 2.) Every Smurf has his own specific job and does not deviate from that job. The job even becomes part of their personality and their name (Brainy Smurf, Handy Smurf, etc.) 3.) If ever a Smurf decides to strike out on his own he is cast into danger in some way of another and it is up to the collective to save him. 4.) Papa Smurf looks an awful lot like Karl Marx plus, he wears all that red.
And let us not forget Smurfette, the lone female Smurf and the embodiment of community property.
In the face of such convincing evidence, it is easy to mark the Smurfs as the Socialists they are, and their nemeses Gargamel (and his maladjusted cat Azrael, a not so subtle attack on ISRAEL) is the personification of Capitalism; out for himself and profit trying to destroy the peaceful commune of Smurfs.
Thankfully our resistance was not destroyed, thanks to the determination of other cartoons such as G.I. Joe and Richie Rich who's goal it was to instill in the children of the western world the morals and values of Capitalism.
Yet another crippling bombshell hit the beleaguered Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 community when last month IDC confirmed that Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 accounts for less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of the latest Netcraft survey which plainly states that Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 is collapsing in complete disarray, as further exemplified by failing dead last [sysadminmag.com] in th recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin [amdest.com] to predict Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 because Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 is dying. Things are looking very bad for Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0. As many of us are already aware, Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood. FreeBSD is the most endangered of them all.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
OpenBSD leader Theo states that there are 7000 users of OpenBSD. How many users of NetBSD are there? Let's see. The number of OpenBSD versus NetBSD posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 NetBSD users. BSD/OS posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of NetBSD posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of BSD/OS. A recent article put FreeBSD at about 80 percent of the Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 FreeBSD users. This is consistent with the number of FreeBSD Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and so on, FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by BSDI who sell another troubled OS. Now BSDI is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 has steadily declined in market share. Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 is to survive at all it will be among OS hobbyist dabblers. Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, Science: Designer Babies, Version 1.0 is dead.
I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.

A recent article put "first post" at about 80 percent of the troll market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 "first post" trolls. This is consistent with the number of first posts.

Look around you, folks. How many of you have sigs that refer to "karma", "ACs," getting "modded up" and the like? Has Slashdot become your hermetically sealed environment? Is it the filter through which you perceive reality? Has Slashdot become an empty game where you regurgitate earlier posts to get 'karma'?
Some of you might be surprised to learn that this "karma" has no value whatsoever!!! When Slashdot goes under (and don't worry, it will) you won't be able to exchange that "karma" for Denny's coupons, anime DVDs, or anything worth a shit!!!
And don't think there's any spiritual value either! Slashdot "karma" won't help you break the cycle of reincarnation, it won't get you "high", and it won't even win you friends at Magic: The Gathering tournaments!
Fellow Slashdotter, you have been deceived!!! You will not achieve immortality by posting "Imagine a Beowulf cluster of this!" or "Linux is really good for the desktop!" The only way you'll ever be remembered when this decrepit weblog tumbles into nothingness is to post something really FUCKED UP!!! I can't stress this enough!!!
Don't waste your time chasing the "karma" cap! Don't whine about your stories not being published when you know that the news on this site is randomly chosen by monkeys!!!The only way you'll be remembered long after CmdrTaco returns to his old position as shift leader at Pizza Hut is by posting ABSOLUTE FREAKING MADNESS!!! Do it now!!! Do it often!!! And karma be damned!!! Have you ever seen the back of a twenty-dollar bill...ON WEED?
What the hell is wrong with slashdot!!

Let us assume the fact that posts are showing up in reverse order is simply another bug resulting from shoddy half-ass open sores programming, and NOT INTENTIONAL. This is what happens when dirty GNU hippies smoke too much weed before coding.
Drain your swampy armpits, wash off your rancid body odor and fix the bug dammit!! But please - for Gods sake, TAKE A SHOWER!
The Quake III Arena 1.31 patch has been released. The release notes include the following:
Linux only: fixed sound crash, going around memset bug in glibc i586/i686
Wondering how a bug could exist in such a fundamental basic function such as memset, we contacted Heinous Turdballs of Linux fame, and he was kind enough to give a few minutes of his time.
Q: Thanks for your time in answering some questions for us
A: No problem. As you know, I am umemployed and have no life, which is of course how I got involved in Linux in the first place.
Q: OK, Mr. Turdballs. By the way, do you mind if I call you 'Dirty GNU Hippie'?
A: I would rather you didn't. I prefer the term 'Dirty Linux Hippie'. As you know, my ratty and nasty hairdo, my rancid steaming armpits and my putrid stench of body odor makes me qualified, I think.
Q: I quite agree. Can you tell us about the memset bug?
A: Sure. We dont really know who is responsible for the bug. We don't know who is making changes, why they make them, or when.
Q: Hmm.. sounds chaotic!
A: It sure is. But Linux is free!!! We are dirty smelly GNU hippies with natty greasy long hair, enjoying the FREE LOVE of GNU software!
Q: Come to think of it, Linux sure does crash alot.
A: Yeah, but that will be fixed in the service pack - er, I mean kernel release. We also have support for some new device drivers that came out 2 years ago. You just have to recompile your kernel with the correct command line switches, after configuring your make file and making the correct edits to/etc/fstab. By the way, if you screw that up, you are really fucked.
Q: Sounds good. So, how do you organize who is working on Linux?
A: Mostly we don't. We pretty much let anyone have at it with the code base. We figure at some point, someone who actually knows something about operating systems will do some work on it. It has to happen eventually, its like a million monkeys banging on a million typewriters. Literally.
Q: That's great. What normally happens?
A: Normally someone comes in and fucks everything up completely, but we don't know who they are because we never actually talk to anyone who is making changes to the code. We assume that if you are capable of signing up for a Hotmail account, you must be pretty good at computers and you should be a tech lead in a major open sores project.
Q: Open sores?
A: Yes, I am sure you have heard of it. Its free, therefore its good. Check out sourceforge.net, where bad project ideas go to a quiet and lonely death when the developers realize that 12 year old kids should not be SQA leads when they are constantly getting atomic wedgies because they wear shirts saying "Put Linux Anywhere".
Q: OK, Back to the topic. Whats a typical day in the life of a Linux developer?
A: Usually his mom wakes him up in time to catch the school bus, like 8:00. We encourage this because we want the developers to be well edumacted.
By the time he gets home at 2:00 (the Linux enthusiast does not participate in socalled "extra cirricular" activities, or worry about being "well rounded" and does not have a "social identity" or "play well with others") he has been beaten up a few times for wearing a "I GNU SPOCK" tshirt.
Then, to take out his frustration, he hammers away at the keyboard for a few hours. If the resultant code compiles, he will go ahead and check it in. Then mommy tucks him in for the night.
Q: Interesting. So who will be in charge of resolving the memset bug?
A: We have a nice prospect in mind. He has a strong background in manual labor and performing menial tasks. I'm not sure what his name is but he has a hotmail account, dAsUpAhZillAZ99@hotmail.com.
Q: Sounds great. I'm looking forward to it!
A: Just keep reading slashdot, where are the pimply nerds congregate. You may get assaulted by some homosexual linux zealots, but you will learn to like it.
Q: Sounds like fun!
A: Also hang out at sourceforge.net, where bad project ideas go to a quiet and lonely death among the other dirty GNU hippie projects.
Q: Thanks for your time!
A: Tell commander tuna taco I said I will pay in full after I get a real job. Then I will be back for another taco-snotting.
I just heard the sad news on BBC radio. Web entreprenuer/pioneer goatse.cx guy was found dead in his home this morning. Even if you never admired his work, you can appreciate what he did for the 'last frontier' of the internet.
Reports are that he died from complications resulting from \"Book Reviews: Building Linux Virtual Private Networks\". Truly a internet icon. He will be missed:(
In a surprising announcement, Richard Stallman and #2 Kernel hacker Alan Cox have decided to get married.
"I love him, he is so sweet"cooed the stout Stallman. "He holds me and tells me I'm beautiful."The GNU guru has even said he will take a shower for his bride-to-be. "I will put aside my irrational fears of water, a special treat for my wedding night. I will even clean the cobwebs and dingleberrys from my backside so that Alan can give me the rim job he has always wanted."
The power duo promised to continue their lifelong dream of free software for everyone. "Me and Richie just fit,"Cox said while munching on 3 day old pizza and clearing out the cock-roaches from his hair. "I love him and he loves me and we are just going to be sooo happy! He promised to buy me a puppy in the fall." Cox said he plans to wear a buckskin shorts and a camoflauge T-Shirt to his wedding while Stallman will appear in the priestly robes that he has become known for. He even promised to get the large poo stain near the rear cleaned for the big event. Good luck guys!
Some people need to find something better to do with their time, rather than write programs that submit trolls to slashdot.
Sorry to break it to you, but nobody's gonna pay you to do this. Holy fsck.

Mayor McPenisman has a tale of woe to dispense, and since you asked, here goes: Emporer Napleon Bonerpants founded Penisville with the intention of eating penis pot pie on a daily basis. Soon after, Harry "Penis" Houdini assisinated him through trecherous means. Our penis loving state was in danger of being taken over by the Poonis worshippers. Then I, Mayor McPenisman united the penisites under the flag of penis (the flag of penis being a penis drawn on a flag) and the general love among penismen. All "members" (get it?) of the penis party get penis sitting privilages any time they want. Phallic Phreedom to all!

Just three days ago, I subscribed to OSDN's (formerly known as Andover.net; a subsidiary of VA Software formerly known as VA Linux formerly known as VA Research) Freshmeat Update newsletter. However, I quickly found out that spending half a minute per day reading about new open sores warez is a waste of my valuable time; hence I decided to unsubscribe. Luckily, I was too lazy to do it yesterday or else I would have missed this wonderful ad that came with the newsletter this morning, instead of the usual ad for Thawte's SSL Guide:
-- Mind altering substance from Microsoft.
Microsoft® Visual Studio®.NET from Microsoft has arrived. Will the old way of programming survive?Click to find out: www.msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio --
It seems that the Visual Studio banner ad [doubleclick.net] was not a single occurence, but rather part of a prolonged advertising campaign by Microsoft on the VA sites.
Hopefully, this means that VA are running short of cash, need every dollar they could possibly get their greedy hands on and their end is nearer than I would have ever hoped. Hopefully, this will also mean that Slashdot won't be around much longer and the pimply-faced slashbots will finally use some real software [microsoft.com] instead of that open sores crap [kdevelop.org].
P.S. I liked this part in MS' ad the most: "Will the old way of programming survive?". LOL.

Here we go again. Yet another release of the hateful "Linux" operating system, prominently splattered across the front page of the Internet's premiere "geek" weblog. You would think that in light of recent events, people would want to support their country and help their country's economy. To software people, that means purchasing and installing products from American companies, such as Microsoft and Sun Microsystems. You would think that pure patriotism would be stronger than the desire to "enjoy" some of the imagined benefits of "open source" software. Apparently, the moral community has severely underestimated the widespread reach of liberal thinking.
Linux is not an American product. It is not made in America. Linux developers are a bunch of loose-knit leftists from all over the globe, acting out of the interest of "global cooperation." Does this sound familiar? It ought to. The United Nations is an organization that operates (ostensibly) under similar principles, but has a far more sinister goal, which is the establishment of a One World Government that consumes and renders irrelevant the superior culture of the United States of America.
Would you allow a blue-bereted, black-helicoptered, jack-booted thug into your own home? If not, then why on Earth would you even consider installing Linux? For mere pennies a day you can run a moral operating system. I realize that Linux is big among the UN-loving liberals, but isn't most of Slashdot's readership libertarian/Republican? It seems to me that this is a fundamental contradiction, and that a lot of people need to start re-evaluating their priorities.
Thank you.

Read this. I cant believe this! I am switching to a GNU operating system today!
There are folders on your computer that Microsoft has tried hard to keep secret. Within these folders you will find two major things: Microsoft Internet Explorer has not been clearing your browsing history after you have instructed it to do so, and Microsoft's Outlook Express has not been deleting your e-mail correspondence after you've erased them from your Deleted Items bin. (This also includes all incoming and outgoing file attachments.) And believe me, that's not even the half of it.

By the time he gets home at 2:00 (the Linux enthusiast does not participate in socalled "extra cirricular" activities, or worry about being "well rounded" and does not have a "social identity" or "play well with others") he has been beaten up a few times for wearing a "I GNU SPOCK" tshirt.
Then, to take out his frustration, he hammers away at the keyboard for a few hours. If the resultant code compiles, he will go ahead and check it in. Then mommy tucks him in for the night.
Q: Interesting. So who will be in charge of resolving the memset bug?
A: We have a nice prospect in mind. He has a strong background in manual labor and performing menial tasks. I'm not sure what his name is but he has a hotmail account, dAsUpAhZillAZ99@hotmail.com.
Q: Sounds great. I'm looking forward to it!
A: Just keep reading slashdot, where are the pimply nerds congregate. You may get assaulted by some homosexual linux zealots, but you will learn to like it.
Q: Sounds like fun!
A: Also hang out at sourceforge.net, where bad project ideas go to a quiet and lonely death among the other dirty GNU hippie projects.
Q: Thanks for your time!
A: Tell commander tuna taco I said I will pay in full after I get a real job. Then I will be back for another taco-snotting.

Reports are that he died from complications resulting from \"Book Reviews: Building Linux Virtual Private Networks\". Truly a internet icon. He will be missed :(

Hey asswipe, you fucked up my LinuxQueer magazine troll. Frost piss even. Jackass!!
In a surprising announcement, Richard Stallman and #2 Kernel hacker Alan Cox have decided to get married.
"I love him, he is so sweet"cooed the stout Stallman. "He holds me and tells me I'm beautiful."The GNU guru has even said he will take a shower for his bride-to-be. "I will put aside my irrational fears of water, a special treat for my wedding night. I will even clean the cobwebs and dingleberrys from my backside so that Alan can give me the rim job he has always wanted."
The power duo promised to continue their lifelong dream of free software for everyone. "Me and Richie just fit,"Cox said while munching on 3 day old pizza and clearing out the cock-roaches from his hair. "I love him and he loves me and we are just going to be sooo happy! He promised to buy me a puppy in the fall." Cox said he plans to wear a buckskin shorts and a camoflauge T-Shirt to his wedding while Stallman will appear in the priestly robes that he has become known for. He even promised to get the large poo stain near the rear cleaned for the big event. Good luck guys!

Emporer Napleon Bonerpants founded Penisville with the intention of eating penis pot pie on a daily basis. Soon after, Harry "Penis" Houdini assisinated him through trecherous means. Our penis loving state was in danger of being taken over by the Poonis worshippers.
Then I, Mayor McPenisman united the penisites under the flag of penis (the flag of penis being a penis drawn on a flag) and the general love among penismen. All "members" (get it?) of the penis party get penis sitting privilages any time they want. Phallic Phreedom to all!

.NET from Microsoft
Mind altering substance from Microsoft.
Microsoft® Visual Studio®
has arrived. Will the old way of programming
survive?Click to find out:
www.msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio

It seems that the Visual Studio banner ad [doubleclick.net] was not a single occurence, but rather part of a prolonged advertising campaign by Microsoft on the VA sites.
Hopefully, this means that VA are running short of cash, need every dollar they could possibly get their greedy hands on and their end is nearer than I would have ever hoped. Hopefully, this will also mean that Slashdot won't be around much longer and the pimply-faced slashbots will finally use some real software [microsoft.com] instead of that open sores crap [kdevelop.org].
P.S. I liked this part in MS' ad the most: "Will the old way of programming survive?". LOL.

Linux is not an American product. It is not made in America. Linux developers are a bunch of loose-knit leftists from all over the globe, acting out of the interest of "global cooperation." Does this sound familiar? It ought to. The United Nations is an organization that operates (ostensibly) under similar principles, but has a far more sinister goal, which is the establishment of a One World Government that consumes and renders irrelevant the superior culture of the United States of America.
Would you allow a blue-bereted, black-helicoptered, jack-booted thug into your own home? If not, then why on Earth would you even consider installing Linux? For mere pennies a day you can run a moral operating system. I realize that Linux is big among the UN-loving liberals, but isn't most of Slashdot's readership libertarian/Republican? It seems to me that this is a fundamental contradiction, and that a lot of people need to start re-evaluating their priorities.
Thank you.
