explain the joke.. Enlighten us ohh master of the great humours...
p.s. why didn't it show up as the world's funniest joke? in the news. if you look. I didnt think it was that funnny.
ARE BEING THE MOST RUDE FUCK-HEADS, TO THE poster of this article.
Have you ever thought that he is trying to get a team together from the slashdot crowd using slashdot's huge audience, and posed it as an ASKSLASHDOT just to get it on/.?
Just because he hasn't told us of any specific design plans doesn't mean he has none.
/. doesn't deserve to be an elitest crowd. It isn't good enough. So get off it.
Its wrong to moderate the parent as flame bait just because he mentions a M$ product. Disagreeing with, or counter-suggesting the political views of/. is not a good reason for being flaimbait.
/. is about freedom of speech,ideas and ideologies. Not about suppression of conversations that go against your ideologies.
Otherwise you are just as bad as any DMCA, RIAA, or Bush administration.
I think we have a miscommunication. I was greeing with you and disagreeing with Microsoft.
M$:If lil Billy is a thief, so am I.
therefore, modding should be illegal. thats the m$ position.
My position was:lil Billy down the street is a thief, he breaks into my house and steals my games. therefore I need to back-up my games.(I'm talking about the crack-head that keeps stealin my shit everytime im gone)
Microsoft and I have the same logic, but different conclusions.
The problem is we can't make it a system where the poor man never sues, becuase the rich corporations will spendten times as much on their lawyers, and will win with their better lawyers.
p. We need a cap on how much you can spend per day on lawyer fees.
get a bill passed that says, because the recording industry has screwed the public for so long, hackers are allowed to target record company's networks.
We all know who would win the hacker battle between the record company and the public.
Hmm.. How long did it take them to figure it out about napster? computers in general?
This is rather callous of you. Nothin about the mechanics of an economy are set in stone. New technologies, culture and business law can be adaptive.
Capitalism is not the end-all of economic design. Superior methodologies in distribution of wealth can be just as successful in accruing wealth.
The concept of capital(wealth) has to change, to include natural world infrastructure concerns, ecology, real energy thruput(into and out of the economy), living standards, and yes, Happiness.
The way the world works does inconvenience me. It INCONVENIENCES freedom, the pursuit of happiness, OUR mental health, our eco-system's health, real human progress, space exploration, It INCONVENIENCS Peace, love, the fight against racism, health care, education,truth, the fight against cancer and disease.
The way this world is INCONVENIENCE the poor(who live in ka-ka land) and the rich(who live in la la land). It inconveniences the pursuit of free energy,the freedom of information, our gene code, the human spirit.
Gore is just as bad. So shut the fuck up. Both parties are bought, with their legs spread yelling,"fuck me Fuck me!"
The dems, and the republicans.. they're the same.
It was time for a third party. Maybe it was Nader.
And now we have to have a panel of(judges?) that must determine the neutrality of an article before it is legal? In effect, and affect..This is saying that advocacy is illegal. That is Bullshit.
9.0 Final Release.. Yeah Baby!!!As I am not a developer, I've been waiting for this release. I want to install Mandrake as the network for my friend's corner Gallery. Artists appreciate openSource. L0l
I was referring to a meritocracy between the community of Open Source developers.
The issue you raise is totally different.
Being free is just as much a part of the worthiness of a product. It is an advantage to the consumer's wallet. Commercial vrs. Open Source have different str and weaknesses. Free being one of them
It would be nice if open source were too accomplish these features first.
Many times opensource coders are forced to play catchup with propietry software because the Open Source movement wasn't as widespread as it is today.It would be nice to be on the forefront.

You misread me, or jumped to a conclusion.
Same logic.. but different conclusion.
I don't mind getting sued, but hacking into the sytem is another can of worms
Even go so far as notify Novak of our slander.
What great /. fun we would have as we pooled our resources to fuck him in the ass.
Besides, it is a great political statement for freedom of speech, and probably is worthy of /. to do. What do you think?
(wink)It would be fun, wouldn't it?

Ring of Sustain + z, where z=slashdot effect.

And it gives Slashdot something to bitch about.
C'mon, who amazing /.ers?
I see nothing wrong with a system that facilitates mass emailings from masses of people. Not too many each.
Sure make it secure, where it does take an individual to arrange for the email at a certain time. But what is wrong with this?
Including me.

LOl A new type of Slashdotting. Confuse the FBI with too many leads.
Ha ha ha!!

And the community responds if they like the idea.
Open Source..Its the real Meritocracy.. Good ideas progress. Dumb ones die. (well most of the time :) )
