You know, I can never get to sleep in less than thirty minutes in a bedroom. On my keyboard, on the couch or chair, but never actually in bed. I always lay awake for at least an hour to two before I fall asleep.
Or rather, an iPod with a WiFi add-on that has enough battery to support it and the ability to listen to what any other iPods in the viscinity are listening to.
For example me and a friend are walking down the sidewalk and he has a song or set of songs on his iPod that I want to listen to but don't have on mine. He sets it up so that his iPod openly broadcasts the music over WiFi so I can pick it up, along with anyone else.
Perhaps if they made it open-spectrum WiFi they could make it so that you could set up a system where the signals bounced enough that I could pick up someone walking away on the sidewalk while I'm in a cafe.
In other words, take a look at Washington DC. Getting a parking space costs an arm and a leg, so people are increasingly using the Metro(underground/subway) to get to the office. And by people, I mean everybody. You see the lowliest janitor and the head of a law firm sitting next to each other on the trains. And with beltway traffic, it's cheaper nowadays than paying for the gas.
I met Mitnick when he showed up at dc2600 a few months back. While he's not the best in the field, he was the person that got rallied around when he was caught. He's gone from black-hat to white-hat, and by publishing the books so that they're aimed at amateurs and people who don't know about hacking/social engineering he expands the field.
Basically he's something of a recruiter. Even the people that read his books and don't become hackers will at least know what a hacker really is, and not the media interpertation.
When I first looked maybe 2 hours ago it was at 50,000ish, now it's at 78,000+. Either there are 5 people that are trying to wear out their F5 keys, or it's not that bad of an approximation of the massive hyperlinkage of a slashdotting.
Yeah, it is kinda embarrasing for the US when Europe has to take charge to deal with our own rouge company/monopolies. We're supposed to be the strongest, so why can't we deal with our own problems?
Actually, it's more like 15 for choppy, and 30+ for smooth video. Though if you're talking about flash it might be different because of what it's displaying. But most professional renders and/or live acting tend to fall in the 30-60 FPS range.

So to sum it up, Yes; Slashdot is read by the news media and is in many, many stories.

I think you mean, "all the real script kiddies".
... Just stop downloading software. It's not hard.
You must be new around here...
I belive that they meant altitude controlers.

Anyone else slightly suspicious of the fact that his UID makes it seem like he's a newly created account? Karma-whoring maybe?
What do you call Pulp Fiction then? I think it's Tarantino influencing GTA, not GTA influencing Tarantino.

Looks like they already have a lot of spam built into that sneak-preview... At least they got rid of all the pr0n.

And besides, most of us would much rather have a duel of wits than a duel of swords. And, if we do have to have a duel of swords it's always in CS.

And let's not forget the elephants that stand on the turtle's back.
If this were Fark the story would have gotten an Obvious tag.
At the time it might have been a smart decision or just the safe one, but by now SCO's a joke.

I think we're about to slashdot strings...
I think we all could have lived without knowing that Spock could sing.

Not to mention that not having eyebrows always gets you noticed.
"ever wanted to program in an object oriented assembly language?"
Uh... I gotta say... No.
Since I KNOW you're gonna be reciting the lines from memory, no, you won't.

I want to give Hitler a break for a days a month and see how Darl likes the pineapples...
