  1. Don't bother reading the article... on Good and Bad Procrastination · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    It was horribly obvious, and boring. Slashdot - I know news is out there, I know you can do it better job finding it. What's with the decline of articles that are relevant or interesting at all?

  2. In related news.... on Amazon Tries Its Hand at Tagging · · Score: 1

    In related news, Amazon started selling vibrators recently. and another

  3. Re:ATTENTION **AAs: SomethingAwful = PIRATE Haven on PayPal Freezes Hurricane Relief Account · · Score: 1

    that site that shall not be named has gone down anyways.

  4. Re:Ah the mindless mob... on PayPal Freezes Hurricane Relief Account · · Score: 2, Informative

    you must be joking. If you even went to www.somethingawful.com and read LowTax's thoughts on Katrina, you would not question this being a scam. And you obviously don't know SA's previous record of donating (raised over $22K to buy plated armor for soilders in Iraq, rasied over $6K to buy kids in need christmas presents. And that's just to name two). I really am disgusted at you considering this a possibility.

  5. really? on NYT Says Paperless Voting A Serious Problem · · Score: 1

    i vote this the most shocking and undercovered story ever. i had no clue?

  6. thats only a few networks though. on Is IRC All Bad? · · Score: 1

    still, most of the piracy traffic is congested on several networks. I spend my time on gamesnet where 99.9% of the activity is legal. It's just a bunch of gamers scrimmaging, matching, idleing, and pertending like e-sports will ever get big :-P

  7. gossiping about famous counter strike players. on Too Much Gaming, Anyone? · · Score: 1

    I realized that I played to much counter-strike when i started gossiping about professional counter-strike players. "Shaguar must be doing crystal meth! between this tournmanent and this other tournament he lost like 200 pounds!" "Well Ksharp and Aphrodite were dating, but Ksharp took her to the CPL, where Aimetti put his moves on her, and took her back up to his room"

  8. Re:folding@home seti@home on New and Improved SETI · · Score: 1

    i wasn't putting anyone into judgement, I was just raising awareness for folding@home which rivals seti in importance, and is lesser known. your points were valid if not a bit aggressive though. "I'll just say I urge ALL of you out there to run SOMETHING, anything, of your choice and share your spare CPU cycles for the betterment of society, be it seti@home or folding@home or something else." I strongly agree with that.

  9. folding@home seti@home on New and Improved SETI · · Score: 3, Informative

    OR instead of wasting our computer time searching for aliens that most likely aren't out there or won't be able to return our signals, we could make use out of our computer time by folding cells to possibly find a cure for cancer and other diseases. http://folding.stanford.edu/ I urge ALL of you to switch from seti@home to folding@home

  10. Re:I liked this line the best on Skunkworks At Apple -- The Graphing Calculator Story · · Score: 2, Interesting

    and who doesn't like chuck palahniuk? honestly. i can see him writing this. maybe throw in some odd perversion and really weird friends and hobbies on the side.

  11. Re:Shweet! on Decentralizing Bittorrent · · Score: 1

    or when it is so old there is.... one person seeding it on cable and no one else has it?

  12. awesome. on Decentralizing Bittorrent · · Score: 1

    sounds good. it has my p2p traffic when it comes out. hopefully it will catch on. if it is backed by suprnova no doubt it will.

  13. medal of honor. on Defending The Skies Against Congress And The Elderly · · Score: 1

    This reminds me of a news article I read. A politician and war veteran around the age of 70 (i don't remember his name) was travelling through the airport. He had his medal of honor with him, but since it had sharp edges, the airport security made him mail it back to his residence. Think of the risk of 70 year old war veteran takes over an airplane with a medal of honor!

    you are a god.

  15. taking longer than expected on More Insight On Longhorn's Avalon And Aero Design · · Score: 2, Interesting

    while somewhat offtopic this has to do with longhorn. i have a friend who has friends on the longhorn development team. I hear they are having to re-write some of it because they invested to much in inter-threading processes. It appears that a Windows XP 2 will come out becaues longhorn is taking so long.

  16. I highly recommend call of duty on Good Online FPS Games/Servers For Beginners? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Call of duty is an awesome game. PC Gamer gave it an editors choice award and also the Action Game of the Year for 2003, and PC Gamer rarely messes up. Call of duty ranges in experience... from lots of lots of newbies, too about 4 or 5 differnet leagues and several hundred clans. Hacking is rare, there are wallhacks and boxhacks out but they are VERY hard to find. I have only played with 2 people that were cheating. Also, if you can get good at call of duty you can play any other fps games with no problem. -leprkan p.s. Lineage 2 comes out in a few months and the tiawan beta was promising :-D

  19. Morse didnt invent the morse code either. on Who Really Invented The Telegraph? · · Score: 1

    Morse didn't actually invent the morse code. His was flawed and wouldn't make sence, so his partner changed it. Naturally Morse took credit for it, and his partner was forgotten.

    I don't think they will prevent the cacheing of .gov sites considering this: Google Search: .

  21. Fastest day of the internet all year on DDoS for Fun and Profit · · Score: 5, Funny

    I would put money on it that tommorow will be the generally fastest day of the internet all year (not saying much it's january). Everything important will be patched, and all the home pc owners that don't know jack about computers will say, "I don't want to catch that virus I heard about on the news, I better wait a day untill it dies down". Thus more bandwidth for everyone else.
