  1. Re:Ya know... on One Man's Check From The RIAA · · Score: 5, Funny

    Correction:

    Getting a Slashdot-induced bandwidth bill of $3,000: $3000

  2. Not to sound like flamebait... on Japan's Empire of Cool · · Score: -1

    ... but most people who embrace japanese culture do it only because they are too rejected from their own culture.

  3. Yen? on Toshiba Develops 0.85'' Hard Disk · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Just to let you know, 30,000 yen is around $278 american. If this pushes down to 10,000 yen that will be around $93 dollars.

  4. Re:Ironic, don't you think? on Attacking the Spammer Business Model · · Score: 0

    The spammers would set up spam filters themselves, duh. Plan foiled! :P

  5. Re:Rob Them of the Right to Rebellion on Rules for Teenage Internet Access? · · Score: 0

    Uh? What? My parents let me stay out late with friends, and on dates, etc. Did I stop? No. I enjoyed being with my friends and wasn't simply doing it to rebel and piss off my parents.

  6. Re:Take the profit out of spamming on Spammers Using Hacked Machines as Decoys · · Score: 0

    The spammers aren't getting paid by how much they sell, but instead how much they mail... buying or not won't effect anything.

  7. Re:I think... on Vancouver Bars Network Together to Track Patrons · · Score: 0

    Funny or not, I wasn't trolling. God fucking damn. :/

  8. I think... on Vancouver Bars Network Together to Track Patrons · · Score: 0, Troll

    ...each bottle of alcohol should have a card swipe to make sure minors don't drink outside bars. Silly Canadians. Us Americans never do stupid stuff!

  9. Re:Let the ST jokes fly on Is Google's Future: Star Trek? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Computer: "Voice recognition services are currently down. Please right click to confi... oh wait, hahaha"

  10. Speaking. on Is Google's Future: Star Trek? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Even though I know that this is hypothetical, I still wouldn't want Google returning it's results by speech. Huge novels? Complex URLs? I love copy and paste. One of the things I wish I could do with paper and pencil.

  11. Re:Yes but.. on New Pentium 5 Details - 5-7ghz? · · Score: 0

    Chips or chicks?

  12. Re:Awesome line on Interview with Linus Torvalds from NYT Magazine · · Score: 0

    Good thing this was modded as flamebait, his comment was making me pretty mad.

  13. Re:"several other registries"?? on VeriSign Responds To ICANN's SiteFinder Advisory · · Score: 0

    .cc. Of course, it's not nearly as popular as .com or .net so nobody cares ;[ There are still alot of good domains available with this extention... oh well.

  14. What? on Linux Most Attacked Server? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Good god sir, do you know where you are posting this? ;]

  15. Re:Let's make this a press release! on Back To SCO · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Why the hate on SCO, it's not like they attempted to legally rape a 12 year old girl

  16. Yep on Interview With A Maddog · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    We havent had that spirit here since 1969...

  17. Haha on Google Removes Kazaa Links, Keeps Sponsored Links · · Score: 1

    Official Kazaa Lite K++ Website Kazaa Lite K++ is a FREE, clean and highly improved version of Kazaa. K-Lite Codec Pack for playing all your downloaded movies. www.kazaalitekpp.com/ - 2k - Cached - Similar pages I thought the title said "Google removes Kazaa links?" Maybe I need to read the article again.

  18. Hah on Segway Riders Get High on Mount Washington · · Score: 1

    For how much they cost, they should be able to do more than climb up mountains.

  19. fggf on Software Customer Bill of Rights · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Some guy posts his thoughts about how the software industry should run on his blog and it makes the front page. What happened to the "stuff that matters" clause? This isn't going to change anything.

  20. Re:Stupid on AOL Sued For Over-Zealous Blocking · · Score: 1

    Honestly. AOL owns the servers, they can do what the y want. How is choosing what to filter against the law? Yeah, whatever CIHost. That is like threatening to sue for being banned from a forum... except on a more global scale.

  21. Re:argh on Dave Phillips' Linux Sound Updated · · Score: 4, Funny

    So was Beethoven...

  22. asdasd on Linux Corporate Influence: Boon or Bane? · · Score: 1

    Are corporations exploiting the Open Source community? Would they make money if they did?

  23. Re:They Can't Do This! on Cheap PPC Linux Machines From IBM · · Score: 1

    You are wit impaired too. That "joke" is less funny than a whole google of Soviet Russia "jokes."

  24. Re:Catchy headline on Linux-Controlled Segway Robot · · Score: 1

    OSX yes, XP no. After all, /. is pretty much stories of how Linux is used in the real world, SCO lawsuits, Windows security flaws, and how the DMCA is screwing over the world. Linux used to create text document Windows made- news at 11.

  25. This will probably be said 22241515 times... on Trustworthy Software For The NSA? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    ... but if they are afraid of untrustworthy software they really should hire someone to make them a custom open source solution. Or something. Yeah.
