I will not be buying any Apple hardware or software you fucking cocksuckers. You can take that IPod and IRamItUpYourAss. OS X can OSuck my dick. I will take a G4 PowerDump on your PowerBook. QuickTime can QuickBlowMe. iTunes, more like shiteTunes. Expose? I'll Expose my fucking nuts to your chin.
That's nice, but this is the first time I heard about this. In fact I've been interested in a 2.6 live CD for a while, just haven't looked for one. This saves me the time. I find it very useful to know that you are way ahead of Slashdot in news acquisition.
Second of all, gentoo LiveCDs aren't like knoppix or those other ones.
Really? I tried one and it totally reminded me of Knoppix. I got the one with Gnome and KDE, and it booted into Gnome and had many of your typical apps available to run.
dude, this is MICRO$OFT we're talking about here. They won't block the popups on MSN, or any of them that they benefit from. I also predict they will take "donations" to allow popups to get through.
But anyone can just modify the source code so that this doesn't happen... Oh wait.

IE To Block Pop-Ups
·
· Score: 1, Informative
My favorite pop-up blocker is google's toolbar.,
Uh, that's nice.. But it doesn't work in my browser or even my operating system.
I love free software.
That's why you use IE/Windows, eh? I guess Windows is free when you warez it...
Get rid of the feds, though. I don't really have a problem with the feds so I don't intend on killing any of them when I throw a bunch of phosphor and shrapnel grenades into the convention center, before storming in with a flamethrower. Does it show I don't like virus writers?
Oh, you must be a hacker. From the article:
"In her experience many malicious hackers have a borderline criminal view of the world and do not share mainstream ethical norms."
Hence any claims of code-quality lacking due to the product being named "Rave" is stupidly ludicrous.
No doubt. It still gives people the image of moron pill-popping ravers with lollipops in their mouth giving each other massages. A perfectly good word like "rave" has been ruined forever.
and blocking them just forces marketers to use more intrusive tactics such as this.
More intrusive? Its the intrusive ads like popups that get blocked. Its the annoying animated Flash or animated gif that gets blocked. If advertisers would stick with respectable advertising formats, they would do better. Look at Google, I actually click on their ads because they are useful and they don't piss me off.
Why do you think internet explorer doesn't block ads by default?
Because Microsoft sucks a fat dick.
Why does Google's toolbar block popups by default?
If you disagree with me, look at the ad at the top of this very page, even slashdot uses ads to stay in business.
What ad? Oh you mean that blank space at the top. I block all images on Slashdot. Not to stop the ads, but so the pages load quicker (yes, I'm aware that I can turn images off in the settings, but I don't always log in). I don't need all these images when all I'm looking for is text, and I don't need to waste their bandwidth either. Slashdot is the one case where I do this, though. I don't normally block ads unless they are really annoying or obtrusive.
As for marketers failing to deliver ads because people got tired of their shit. Boo fucking hoo. Like I give a shit. For all I care, the businesses can go out of business. The websites can shut down due to lack of revenue. If you think you can just open up a site on the internet and expect to make money (or even break even) off of banner ads, you're a fucking moron. You better have a better business plan than that.
That's right, because we all know that here on Slashdot it's automatically flamebait if you don't agree with it... (this was typed with tongue in cheek, for the sarcasm impaired)
That's the definition of flamebait, dumbass. Comments that were written to produce flames, mainly from people who don't agree with what you say.
I, for one, think the Ipod sucks ass. Apple, please go fuck yourself.
(this was typed with my dick in your cheek, for the intelligence impaired)
ahem *clears throat* Congrats! You have been selected to ride the short bus for all your commuting needs. Just call 1-800-I-AM-DUMB and they will ride by to pick you up. Moron.
Hmmm.. Couldn't argue anything I had to say? All you can do is try to personally attack me (unsucessfully of course)? That's gotta be the weakest attack I've seen in a while, you may want to work on that.
You're the moron if you have to reinstall Windows every 6 months.
Someone with mod points please mod him troll. Thank you.
Is that all you got to say? Why don't you try arguing the point I made rather than just saying mod me down? Your useless off-topic message does not add anything to the discussion.
I happen to know several people whose lives have gone to waste because of MMORPGs. One of these individuals is unemployed, wakes up at 8PM every day, and starts playing a MMORPG until he goes to sleep in the afternoon, only to wake up hours later to start the cycle again. This was an intelligent guy who was a talented developer whose motivation to succeed has been sucked away by a pathetic mindless game. There are countless similar sad stories.
I refuse to sit here and say nothing while these people waste their lives away.
Hmmm, I'll point out, that if you own the copyright, you can change the license. So uhh, yeah, it might be that evolution ends up "closed source" in not that long.
Uh yeah, ever heard of the word "fork"???
I don't think that will be the case. If it is, somebody will take the last Evolution, call it OpenEvolution and distribute it.
Oh, ok.. You have:) I don't think the other guy did, and that was my point. Its irrelevant whether or not Evolution becomes closed-source. If its free now (as in GPL), the free version will be free forever. This would not be the case if it was a closed-source project that was distributed at no cost. So I say once again "dumbass closed sourcers."
Dumbass open sourcers - just because Evolution is free now doesn't mean it will be in 12 months. Novell is in this for the money - regardless of their rhetoric. They'll charge for their open-source SuSE Linux OS, right? Well, they'll do the exact same thing w/ Evolution.
Dumbass closed sourcers. Looks like someone hasn't read the GPL...
Real geeks are writing code, not playing MMORPGs. MMORPGs are for the fucking wankers who don't produce anything, just like these jackasses who post on Slashdot all day that don't get any real work done.
Why am I still allowed to post a message here? Your message was on June 18th, I'm posting this on October 28th. I'd imagine the discussion would have been closed and archived by now. Must be something with the databases or something. Anyways...
Anyway, I wouldn't blame the posters -- unlike the editors who have no excuse at all for being so unprofessional

"I'll just quit buying [RIAA/MPAA] products. Though I don't have any to beginning [with]." ...that'll show them. Lose paying customer, they will.
Well it beats anything that requires effort.
Some of the biggest idiots I've come across have been quite partial to spending all night dancing under the influence of class-A's.
apple will mourn the loss of you and about a dozen other zealots as customers.
Apple would be nowhere without zealots.

Shut up and give me my fucking Ogg Vorbis, or I won't buy your player. Full stop, end of story.
Will this help curb piracy on college campuses?" It might, except for students that don't run Windows.
It's good enough to nullify the Windows herd.

This happens every 6 months as we all reinstall windows...
Speak for yourself dumbass. I haven't had to reinstall Win2k since I installed it in early 2001.

I am not jealous of skills. I have skills. Skills to write video games that is. Your sorry fat ass is just playing the games and making me money.
Seeing as you're a self-proclaimed hypocrit, i find this comment quite ammusing.
Funny, I wasn't even being a hypocrite.
