  1. Re:Long Live M$ Zombies!!!! on Microsoft Proclaims Death of Free Software Model · · Score: 1

    Why would you pay $700 to be certified as a Minesweeper Consultant and Solitaire Expert?

  2. I have your solution on What Critics of the Critics of the FCC Rule Miss · · Score: 1
    Arrrrrrghhh, shiver me timbers, the RIA@, she is such a harsh mistress.

    Suppose that HDTV headers look like this:
    TITLE,DATE,BCAST, try this

    int main()
    { string HDTV = broadcast.getHeader();
    HDTV = HDTV & 11111111110;
    cout outputDev HDTV;
    return 0; }

    Now, I'm going to put on my tinfoil fat so the DMCA police can't find me.

  3. a real budget server all right on Building a Budget Storage Server · · Score: 1

    It's /.ed. Nice work, people.

  4. A way around it if MS intentionally breaks Linux on Microsoft's Next Virtual PC Will Run Linux · · Score: 1

    Check it out http://www.overclocked.org/OCspare.htm

  5. Suggestion for Microsoft on IE To Block Pop-Ups · · Score: 1
    Okay, I know I'm trolling, but since Microsoft will only be adding pop-up blocking to the IE in Windows XP and presumably in new versions of Windows, I expect that you might see the following pop-up on MSN:

    C1icXs h3re t0 ge7 teh ch3@Pe5t Wind0ze XP upgr@De with no pr0n popupz.

  6. Finally, a solution on Disposable Cell Phones Arrive · · Score: 3, Funny

    Now, I can make all my phone sex calls without worrying about my parents seeing the paper trail. w00t!!!

  7. Re:Simply crazy. on SCO to Take On Hollywood · · Score: 1
    I have an even more evil curse for McBride:

    Darl, may your television only get the weather channel!

  8. Security Question on Security Affecting Microsoft's Bottom Line · · Score: 1

    I was just wondering: Is a corporate network more likely to get hosed over an open port in the firewall through some exploit, or is the network more likely to get hosed because some PHB clicked on an attachment in Outlook?

  9. If Oracle is involved... on Computer Control Implants for the Paralyzed · · Score: 1

    You've got Oracle's projected role totally wrong. Oracle will need to design a database to keep track of all of SCO's ridiculous IP claims.

  10. No more Belkin routers for me on Belkin Routers Route Users to Censorware Ad · · Score: 1

    As for myself, I'd like to have a router from Verisign. Considering how they've so carefully protected the structure of the .com and .net tlds that they've been entrusted with, I think that a router from them would be a much more reliable product.

  11. Re:Netcraft confirms it! on What the Candidates are Running · · Score: 1

    Don't worry about him not pronouncing NUCLEAR correctly. His number one nemesis in the US Senate cannot pronounce the term SOCIAL SECURITY correctly. Let me explain, Dashcle, it's SO-SHUL SECURITY.

  12. Re:Inadequate version number. on Fedora Core 1 Released · · Score: 1

    Personally, I'm waiting to upgrade until they come out with LinuxXP (tm)

    Yeah, you are missing one. Imagine a beowulf cluster of Suns!!!!

  14. MacOS 10.3 on Mac OS X 10.3 vs. Linux · · Score: -1, Troll

    I know that the industry players will hype MacOS 10.3 for the masses, but what I want to know is, will it run Linux?

  15. Transitive Property of equality on A Gator By Any Other Name · · Score: 1
    a=b and b=c implies a=c

    Gator = Spyware and Claria = Gator

    Therefore, Claria = Spyware.

  16. Do your fair share of the work. on Info Glut - Five Exabytes of Data Created in 2002 · · Score: 1
    OK, if we've only created that much data, it's time to get to work. Screen-saver authors, please add the following to the main() segment of your code:

    long x;
    { for (true)
    x = rand();
    send_to_info_glut(x); }

    Please send the data created to Info Glut, and while you're at it, send it to all the spammers and to SCO. With some luck, you might DDOS them off the internet.

  17. Excuse me???? on Tennessee's Super-DMCA Rises From The Grave · · Score: 2, Interesting
    I started reading this and the following statement caught my attention:

    She then introduced the next two speakers, who she said "speak around the country on this specific piece of legislation." Senator Trail asked her why we needed this legislation at all since we already had laws that made cable theft illegal. She stated that the existing law only covers analog, not digital cable theft--giving the impression that, without this new bill, digital cable theft is legal. In responding to Senator Trail's continuing questions about this, she also admitted that the primary goal of the new legislation was getting stronger civil penalties.

    Are they actually claiming that it's legal to steal cable TV if the cable is digital?????? WTF???????

    Just think about it. We have an overabundance of /. first post trolls!

  20. Just wait until SCO hears about this. on Napster Pre-Paid Cards · · Score: 2, Funny
    Just in case we forget to pay up our SCO $699 license fees, SCO will sell gift cards to our friends who can give them to us.

    The SCO gift card could be the hottest item on the market this Christmas season.

  21. Re:Brass Tacks on SCO Calls GPL Unenforceable, Void · · Score: 1

    I swear to God, I will never give my money to a company that screws me over like that. I'll have to find something other than computers to spend my spare time with. It would amount to legalized robbery.

  22. Re:Maybe it would be a good thing on SCO Calls GPL Unenforceable, Void · · Score: 2, Funny

    No, it would become the property of SCO, along with the source code to Half Life 2.
