  1. Re:You know what I would really like to see? on Getting A Handle On Vista · · Score: 0

    Go to http://www.sysinternals.com/ and click on Process Explorer.
    This is a replacement for Windows Task Manager. To replace it, just select Options->replace Task Manager.
    Now the goodie here is that when you select a process in process explorer and click delete, it _instantly_ removes the process!

    Oh and here is another tip for you:
    You don't have to press ctrl-alt-delete to get access to the task manaager.
    Simply press ctrl-shift-escape and it will pop up.

  2. Hacks on Track a Soda Can with GPS? · · Score: 0

    How soon before someone hacks it?

    What I am wondering about is how soon before someone puts on the goatse man?
    I think looking into a 52 square meters version of that would be the earthly equivalent of staring into the abyss of black holes.
    Oh the humanity!

  3. The funniest thing on Microsoft Wins Summary Judgement in Smart Tag Case · · Score: 0

    was in the third comment:

    Prepare yourself for a Nerd invasion.
    We come with greasy hair, bulging bellys, unshaven faces and our virginity still intact.

  4. For all the die hard C-64 Fans out there on Finally: Broadband for the Commodore 64 · · Score: 0

    Check this link out:
    http://www.pressplayontape.com/default.asp?pid=boy band

    That has got to be one of the coolest videos I have ever seen!

  5. Re:Not if republicans can help it. on Distribution of Wealth in a Robot-Driven World · · Score: 0

    "Sure, homeless man, you can stay in John Smith's house for the night. He has more room than he needs anyway!". Would that be rational to you?

    Funny, in many parts of the world this would be the rational thing to do. You try to help out the fellow human being who is not as fortunate as you.

  6. More Info on Wendy Seltzer Interviewed · · Score: 0

    Here is some more background information on our new fighter:

    Her BLOG
    Her homepage
    Her Harvard homepage
    and her Picture

  7. Re:Awesome! on U.S. Funds Anonymizer for Iranians · · Score: 1, Insightful

    You don't really think that this will be anonymous to the US Government?
    Ofcourse they will have access to the logs from anonymizer(They did, after all, fun it). What they ,in reality, have here, is a nice little proxy server that can log every action from any person coming from the "correct" IP's.
    And as a sidenote. Now that they are in bed with Anonymizer, how anonymous is their service for the rest of the world now?

  8. Okay this is all good and such on Infrared Telescope Lifts Off · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    but what I REALLY want to know is:
    WHERE IS MY SCO STORY FOR TODAY?!?!?!

    Man, I am running thin here!

  9. I think I speak for the majority on G5s Start Shipping · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    of us Apple haters when I say:

    Who the fuck cares?






    Laugh.. it's a joke, silly!

  10. I hope they find them on LovSan Clone Let Loose · · Score: -1, Troll

    I hope they find the criminal(s) that releases these viruses and punish them really, really hard.
    I think the time has come to set a very, very BIG example here.
    I know this is Slashdot and that this virus is attacking the reputation of the Big Evil(tm)
    , and that Microsoft should do a lot more to fix things, but there has never been a 100% secure operating system that has been run by more than 1 person.
    If (When?) Linux/FreeBSD/etc had been run by every average guy in the street,
    ofcourse the same thing would happen to those systems. The patch for this virus has been out for what, a month or so now?
    And people still haven't patched their systems. Heck, I know people who have NEVER patched their systems, they don't even know what it is!
    So yes, people should update their operating systems and so on and so forth, but by The Big Man In The Sky I hope they catch the releasers of these viruses and punish them really, really hard to set an example.
    Breaking into other people/buisinesses' systems is considered a felony in most countries and this is breaking into possibly millions of systems,
    so I hope the punishment will fit this crime.
    It doesn't even take very much skill to even write a virus like this since someone else has already told you how to do it on BugTraq.

  11. Obligatory Simpsons quote on Insurance Claims to be Tested by Lie Detector · · Score: 5, Funny

    FBI agent Scully : This is just a simple lie-detector test. I'll ask some simple questions and you should answer with yes or no. Do you understand?
    Homer : Yes.
    [ The machine blows up ].

  12. Spoilers on Zero Blaster Reviewed · · Score: 5, Funny

    Thinkgeek and Slashdot are both owned by VA Software. Damn it! Here I was preparing a huge conspiracy post about how VA Software is abusing Slashdot's position among nerds to promote merchandise from one of it's other companies and then you just give it all away. What am I supposed to complain about today then? Couldn't you atleast give me a dupe or some bad grammar?

  13. OUTRAGE!!! on Is the SCO Lawsuit a Good Thing for Linux? · · Score: 2, Funny

    In it Quon claims that [...] ". . . SCO is a toad about to face a steamroller."

    On behalf of the International Association of Toads I have to file a complaint regarding the comparison between Toads and SCO.
    Does this man?look like a toad to you?
