  1. Re:Oracle in Austin, TX on Oracle's Infrastructure Now Fully Linux-ized · · Score: 1

    Jobs are hard to find, especially in Austin as it's one of the most tech heavy cities in the US. There, IT folks are a dime a dozen. So unless you've got mad/unique skills required for specific job, your going to remain unemployeed. As for me, I'm moving back to Houston in the next few months.

  2. Slashdot Microsoft on New Microsoft Mouse Scrolls Both Ways · · Score: 1

    Wow, I'm rather impressed. So far we haven't been ablt to /. Microsoft yet. Next time Microsoft, we will get you...and your little dog too!!!

  4. Humanity at a loss on The Economics Of Spamming · · Score: 1

    So it's come down to this. Morrons that support SPAMers. Shit, will the stupid people please stop breeding? Get a puppy instead or something.

  5. Re:AM support on Gateway Portable MP3 Player · · Score: 1

    I really wish Slashdot would offer an option to lockout ACs from threads members create. Because you sir, are a dweeb. I know, I shouldn't feed the trolls....

  7. AM support on Gateway Portable MP3 Player · · Score: 1

    I want am MP3 player that can record AM radio. I would love to be able to archive talk radio in MP3 format so I can share them among my family and friends.

  8. The US is Mexico on Part Two: Technical Self-Employment For All · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    A lot of programmers are going to naturally fall back on that as their jobs move overseas, and it will quickly become saturated. You know, with CEOs and top executives raking in the millions and every other employee bearly staying alive on their wage. Well, the middle class of America is going away. The county has is in deep shit. I'm not sure what's going to happen in the future. But one damn thing is for sure, it's not going ot be good. Hell, with the the way the government is involved. The barriers to entry in starting your own business is next to impossible without having a shitload of lawyers and accountants managing taxes. In a nutshell, can we say our government is communistic lead by a few elite in a fascist manor. Damnit all to hell!

  9. My life work. on Part Two: Technical Self-Employment For All · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Basically, this article hit the nail on the head. Unfortunatly, there are way to many geeks out there with a holier-then-thou (think EGO)attitude that really pisses clients off (they are not customers, you want to keep there business). Not only that, but those type of geeks are anti-social. If you really want to been in the on-site end user support industry, you must have the nack for salesmanship and the love of technology. This is job you must LOVE to do. If your in it for the quick buck, then your just going to be another looser all future prospects for the rest of us entrepreneurs .

  10. Re:A bold step forward for Human Case Modding on Powered by Blood · · Score: 1

    What, and become a corporate whore!? Sounds worse then being a consumer whore. Debatable I suppose.

  11. For the children on Smart Kindergarten · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Anything will pass in America as long as it's slapped with a "...it's for the children" sticker on it. I don't see how this is anything new.

  12. The puppet masters on Red Hat Sues SCO, Sets Up Legal Fund · · Score: 1

    That's all this world has come to. Those who are the puppets, and those who are the puppet masters. Sorry, but this time it comes with strings attached.

  13. Make quick money on Florida Citizens' Anti-trust Payout Dwarfed By Lawyers' · · Score: 1

    Sure, I will become a lawyer too. After all, you get rich for writing legal crap and running your mouth in court. It's the perfect "I get rich at your expense because I'm eleet" job.

  14. Beyond grasp on In-Flight Reboot? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I've said it a hundred times and I will say it again. Software is getting way to complex for human management in developing bug-free code.

  15. The God part of the brain on In The Beginning & The Keys of Egypt · · Score: 1

    Personally, I believe in an afterlife... But after reading The God part of the brain, I feel the depressing reality of logic at hand. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0966036700/ qid%3D1059766886/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/103-6 383081-9437440

  16. Re:Interesting topics, horrible review on In The Beginning & The Keys of Egypt · · Score: 1

    Geeks are always moody of Fridays. That's because everyone else will be getting some but them.

  17. The sun makes ozone on Upper Ozone Depletion Declining · · Score: 1

    The majority of the ozone is created by the UV rays striking oxygen in the upper atmosphere. This causes it to ionize, hence ozone. Now what people don't mention is the fact that both poles of the earth get very little direct sunlight. I suppose this is why there is ozone hols in those two places as well.

  18. Pirate Radio on Low-power FM Transmitters Banned in UK · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    You can't transmit freely with a high powered trasmitter according to the FCC without a license.

  19. If you can't beat them.. on Microsoft Deploys Linux, Open Software in Test Lab · · Score: 1

    ..join them. Seriously, it would be in the best interest of MS to adopt *nix and spin there own flavor to the market. Hell, if they do it right I would pay for a copy.

  20. Natural office lighting on Surgery Using A Sunlight Scalpel · · Score: 1

    For those that work in cubicals, using fiber optics to redirect sunlight over my desk would really help with stress (along with ionized air). I mean, being cooped up all day in a building sucks ass.

  21. Re:Politics as usual? on Microsoft Research Projects Showcased · · Score: 5, Funny

    Ohh, that's so cold. But hey, nobody ever said you had to like the truth.

  22. Re:Mousepads on Clammy Modding · · Score: 1

    I use an optical mouse myself. Thus, I don't need a mouse pad anymore. I must say, it's very nice to have a mouse that can freely roam where ever I want it to on my desk.

  23. Re:Don't forget Microsoft Bob! on Microsoft's Forgotten Mistakes · · Score: 1

    My father had a fully copy of MS Bob in box and all. It's too bad pitched it to the trash. It's rare stuff like this that would be worth something in the future to collectors everywhere due the the MS branding on it.

  24. Dark side on Tim O'Reilly Interview · · Score: 1

    All politicians turn to the dark side of money. It's a fact of life and an exploitation of human nature. After all, we are all animals. Some are just more civilized than others.

  25. Sports car on Peer To Peer Meets Manufacturing · · Score: 1

    You know, we are living in an age where anyting is possible...with the right resources. Who knows, in 50 to 100 years from now Open Sourced engineering and contruction will be available to the masses. I personally would like a replication of a farrari or even a personal single seater space jet by then. Of course, that's all moot as I doubt I will live that long to see such a revolution.
