  1. Slashdot Got The Story Wrong on Microsoft Improves Its Licensing Terms · · Score: 1, Funny

    It's not "Microsoft Improves Its Licensing Terms"...it's "Microsoft Licenses Its Improvement Terms". Unless Slashdot purchased a license from Microsoft to report on this story, Slashdot has violated Microsoft's licensing agreement.

    1) You buy a M$ product.
    2) I'll sue the heck out of you while you represent yourself and run up a huge legal bill.
    3) Profit!!! (Then we split the money!)

    Wouldn't the money go to the lawyers?

    Yeah, I know. I guess I'm just DOOMed to be this way.

    Oh, I apologize: You said Games: No Doom 3 This Year?

    Yes, the RIAA, MPAA and SCO are playing games, aren't they?

    Oh, wait...you said Doom 3.

    That would be the RIAA, MPAA and SCO.

    Of course there's Doom this year. It's called the RIAA.

    Well done, lad. Bravo! Very eloquent. Nice to know there are others out there who remember what the Constitution was like before the Corporations took over.

  8. There's Always This on Getting Back Into Shape While At The Office? · · Score: 1
    I get alot of odd looks and would prefer something that doesn't make the whole office stare at me.

    The ThighMaster is time-tested and proven. It operates below the office desk so no one will see it and you will lose weight fast. And as a bonus, you will have the ability to crush a fellow employee's head between your legs.

  9. Totally Useless on Buy.Com Debuts Music Download Site · · Score: 1
    The site only loads in Internet Explorer and all the files are Windows Media 9 formatted with DRM.

    They didn't really emphasize that in the full page ad in USA Today. This is totally useless to me as a Linux user. I had gotten my hopes up, too.

    That's simple. Invent a bladder changer!

  11. Re:How is SCO's Lawsuit affecting sales of Linux? on SCO Extorting Unixware Licenses to Linux Users? · · Score: 1

    SCO is truly a wonderful LXG (League of Extraordinary Gentleman--or is that Germs?).

  12. I Promises...No, WE Promises (My Precious)... on SCO Extorting Unixware Licenses to Linux Users? · · Score: 1
    "Though we possess broad legal rights, we plan to use these carefully and judiciously," he (SCO CEO and President Darl McBride) said.

    And though I possess superhuman and godlike powers of my own proclaiming, I promise to use them carefully and judiciously. I will not arbitrarily turn Slashdot readers into toads; nor will I cause boils to rise on their asses; neither will I create pimples (new ones, anyway) on their faces. Simple worship and dollars will help me keep my promise. You may license my mercy.

  13. Yes, but... on Do It Yourself CD Changer · · Score: 3, Funny
    ...what about an automatic beer changer? Something that would remove an empty beer can from my hand as I sit in my lazy boy recliner, then put a fresh beer in my hand.

    Now that would be progress!

  14. Simplification on How SCO Helped Linux Go Enterprise · · Score: 3, Funny
    3. A per-cpu timer support ? - This will allow us to get rid of the krcud stuff and make RCU even simpler.

    Ingo, Linus: Any chance to see that in 2.5 soon?

    Now we just need to get rid of SCO and make Unix even simpler.

    Yes, yes...but does it integrate well with the iLoo?

    A fatal kernel error is either popcorn that didn't pop, or death by heart attack from eating to much Kentucky Fried Chicken (TM).

  20. Drop That Turd, Mister! on Southeast To Start Video Monitoring Flights · · Score: 1, Interesting
    Huy said cameras wouldn't be installed in the restrooms.

    Why the hell not? Wouldn't you want to know if John Q. Public is packing something in one of his turds? Drugs are sometimes smuggled this way. Couldn't a crude weapon be smuggled on board the airplane in this fashion?

    Also, a bathroom is a great place to prepare for an attack, since you have the privacy in which to do it.

    No, by all means mail them the turd. They probably own the corn in it anyway, so it's rightfully theirs.
