  1. Re:New record! on Face Transplants On The Way · · Score: 2

    Wow! I didn't think of that... the mind boggles... :)

  2. When duplication runs amock on When Personalization Runs Amuck · · Score: 5, Funny

    Posted by Hemos on Thursday November 28, @02:25PM
    from the glitch-in-the-matrix dept.
    someone writes "According to this article from the Slashdot Journal, your Slashdot could definitely get the wrong impression about your interests, or even your need to read a story more than once. And what you need to do to get "a clean slate"? Most of the users who have been "targeted" by Slashdot usually try to "correct" the profiling by posting an abnormal number of flames and ironic remarks. Unfortunately, the only reaction from Slashdot is the remark: "Yep, it's a dupe".
    This story will run again tomorrow, right after the one about the face transplants and before the new Linux kernel patch. Stay tuned

  3. New record! on Face Transplants On The Way · · Score: 5, Funny

    The repeat is here while the original is STILL in the front page! At this rate, the duplicates will soon be posted before the originals.

  4. Re:An honest to God "Ask Slashdot" about this movi on Spirited Away Still Has a Chance · · Score: 2

    Yeah, I wrote "wiute" instead of "quite" on a sentence regarding my English fluency. Im "wiute" aware of the irony of it all, and embarassed beside myself. Sorry about thar :S
    Still... the movie? On DVD? Spanish subtitles? Pretty please? /me kicks himself.

  5. An honest to God "Ask Slashdot" about this movie.. on Spirited Away Still Has a Chance · · Score: 2

    I'm in Mexico, and while I'm wuite fluent in English, I'd obviously love to be able to share this movie whit my wife/family/friends who are not. Is there any way I can get it on DVD with Spanish subtitles? DVD region is not a problem, and neither is price (within reason).
    Thanks for any pointers...

  6. Re:I like this movie and all, but where are the on Massive Two Towers Battle · · Score: 2

    Didn't you see "Robin Hood Prince of Thieves"? If you can sign Morgan Freeman, then you can have colored people anywhere, whether it makes sense or not...

  7. Re:I like this movie and all, but where are the on Massive Two Towers Battle · · Score: 2

    Well, orcs are kinda green, does that count? And the Balrog was black. Yeah, he's a villain, but at least he doesn't rap or sells drugs.
    Really, people who HAS to see everything through their own racist sensibilities are such lamers.
    Damn. Have to remember to stop feeding the trolls...

  8. Re:The sickness of glorifying war on Massive Two Towers Battle · · Score: 2

    naahhh.... you would get own3d by russian haxors... >:)

  9. Re:Yeah, still... on Massive Two Towers Battle · · Score: 2

    I think "Return of the King" refers to Georgw W. Bush. It's scheduled to open on December 2003, about the time Dubya pulls a Palpatine...

  10. Re:Don't forget... on Affordable and Safe Data Protection Practices? · · Score: 2

    Just hope your disks never crash. Restoring from null is such a bitch.... and that is, if you can find the drivers (I think there are none for Linux). /lame joke

  11. Re:the safe may be fireproof on Affordable and Safe Data Protection Practices? · · Score: 2

    Quote the poster:
    data from Omaha, NE was offsited to Washington and vice-versa. Cross-country like that is your best bet.

    Quote the article:
    'Are the steps I'm taking to backup my home network sufficient?'

    Cross-country might be overkill... ;)

  12. Re:In related news... on Microsoft Just Says No to .Doc Replacement Panel · · Score: 2

    slashdot.microsoft.com

    Sounds like a plan. I'll bring the Cheettos.

  13. Re:My Bathroom Door . . . on Justifying the Common Criteria Security Evaluation · · Score: 2

    To increase funcionality, I'd also include a honeypot. Implementation is left as an exercise to the reader.

  14. Re:It is NOT what economists call monopoly rents on Microsoft Profit and Loss by Business Area · · Score: 2

    When I bought this computer (it's not worth my time to hunt down parts at OEM prices and build it myself)...

    Yeah, we get it. You could have built it if you wanted to. And you could also have made the football team and dated the prom queen. Too bad you didn't want to...
    Slashbots and their insecurities. Who can NOT troll them? >:)

  15. Re:On the contrary, this is a Good Thing(tm) on CA Law Demands Public Disclosure Of Break-Ins · · Score: 2

    99.4% of all breakins are caused by known, unpatched vulnerabilities

    I thought that was the percentage of statistics that are made up on the spot.
    Quite a coincidence, really.

  16. Re:What about the Neat Geek? on How Looks Your Geekroom? · · Score: 2

    Dude, nice desk...
    Would love to see pictures of the floor, tough ;)

    Trolling aside, I'm a neat geek too, and it suckswhen other geeks look down at me. It's like, "you're not geeky enough, your desk isn't full of crap" even as I outhardware them, outcode them and even outQuake them. Stereotypes suck big time.

  17. Re:Lemon Laws! on EMI Customer Relations Tells It Like It Is · · Score: 2

    Yeah, and the bast*ard that sold you the broken CD can be executed! This is Texas, y'know!

  18. Big defeat... yay... on Sendo Can't Get Microsoft Source; Ditches Windows · · Score: 2

    Sendo ditched MS! Quick, sell all MS you can! Clearly it's about to go bankrupt!
    Really, I'd be more worried about Sendo.
    Not that I like Microsoft, but this is really non-news. MS does tens of alliances a day, and it's news when one falls through? Geez.
    One more thing: If MS really cared about this deal, I bet you they could buy Sendo, stock, lock and barrel. And pay for it in cash.
    How about some real news, now?

  19. Anyone else found this weird? on Operating Systems Are Irrelevant · · Score: 2

    From the article:
    "And so the organization of your digital information reflects the shape of your life, not the shape of a 1940's Steelcase file cabinet".

    Only, in the article, the word "Steelcase" is a link to the financial information for a href=http://custom.marketwatch.com/custom/nyt-com/ html-companyprofile.asp?userID=joudanx&h=wN4ACUl7v AGkVfP6DnQWcA&symb=SCS>the Steelcase company..
    Just another, sad case of so-called "smart" links on crack, I guess...

  20. One of my favorite songs... on Russians Reveal Early Death of Laika · · Score: 2

    is Laika, by the Spanish group Mecano. Rough translation:

    She was Russian and her name was Laika
    she was a very normal dog
    she went from being a common animal
    to be a world star.
    They put her into a spaceship
    to observe the reaction
    She was the first astronaut
    in outer space.
    ---
    Ready is the rocket for take off
    ground control tells Laika goodbye.
    ---
    In base everything was silent
    waiting for any signal.
    All with the helmets to their ears
    heard the dog bark.
    While on Earth a great party,
    shouting, laughter, crying and champagne,
    Laika looked out through the window.
    "What is that colored ball?
    And why am I going around it?".
    ---
    One night, on the telescope
    a new light appeared
    nobody could give an explanation
    to the appearance of the new sun.
    And if we listen to the legend
    then we'll have to think
    that on Earth there is one less dog
    and on the sky one more star.

  21. If this was the 60's TV Batman... on Superhero Smackdown · · Score: 2

    ...he'd pull out his BatSuperman Defeater at the last minute. A couple of KAPOWs later, he'd win.

  22. Re:Can I expense my clothing bill? on Suit Up Or Ship Out? · · Score: 2

    ...if you are not replaceable...

    Quick lesson in life:
    Everybody is replaceable.
    We now return to your scheduled programming.

  23. Re:Its not just the dress code.. on Suit Up Or Ship Out? · · Score: 2

    ...they have not LEARNT the computer, they have LEARNT the program.

  24. OFFTOPIC: Your sig. on Suit Up Or Ship Out? · · Score: 2

    Well, I just have to know what that is about...
    BTW: I'm not whoever it is you are talking about, since I have never posted anonymously. Just a curious party...

  25. Supes threw the fight already (plus, the stats) on Superhero Smackdown · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Here are the stats .
    Now, we all know Batman would win. He's got a big ol' kryptonite medallion, that Superman gave him himself, to use in case he was ever controlled by sume supervillain. Along with a speech about how Batman was the only person he would trust with it. I read that comic, but can't find the reference for the life of me :(
