  1. Ok... on Verizon Refuses To Provide Complete IPv6 · · Score: 1

    You get one of the few ISPs that'll actually give you a full IPV6 stack to your house and suddenly *they* owe *you* for not routing part of the IPV6 network to you? How quickly people gain an undeserved sense of entitlement.

  2. Facts FUD on Noctilucent Clouds Likely Caused By Shuttle Launches · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Only 300 metric tons? By doing a simple 1 minute Google search I've found that a single cloud weighs on the order of 100 tons-100,000 tons and more. Great bullshit kdawson.

  3. Geothermal energy on Google Funding the Next Big One? · · Score: 1

    Geothermal energy is bar-none, the cleanest, cheapest energy there is. We should be tapping Yellowstone for energy.

  4. 10 years to get an ROI? on Switching To Solar Power, One Year Later · · Score: 1

    This guy is happy his wife doesn't understand numbers and is pleased with a 10 year ROI?

  5. "Goodcall" "goodidea" on Japanese ESRB Bans Rape Depiction In Games · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Since when has Slashdot trumpeted fascism? Now we're cheering outlawing things because they're offensive?

  6. Re:Just nationalize it and roll out 200 gig here on FCC Seeks To Improve US Broadband Access · · Score: 1

    Far behind in what? A 10Mb pipe? Something 95% of people don't need? The only people than need fatter pipes at low cost are movie and software pirates. I'm glad you don't set government policy. You're the epitome of "Subsidize things I like."

  7. Re:Sigh.. on How Do I Put an Invention Into the Public Domain? · · Score: 1

    Slashdot readers tend to read patent abstracts instead of claims and make assumptions about prior art from there. This is equivalent to reading the back cover of a book to see the story is the exact same as another book.

  8. Sigh.. on How Do I Put an Invention Into the Public Domain? · · Score: 1

    I can't believe a question with a huge glaring hole in it got posted on the front page. If an invention has ever existed before and can be proven it can't be patented. This is what "prior art" is.

  9. Eiffel on Null References, the Billion Dollar Mistake · · Score: 1

    Eiffel recently added void safety.

  10. 4th amendment lesson for your future. on A Teacher Asking Students To Destroy Notes? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Well you can't do anything now since you consented to her taking them by letting her in your backpack. Sounds like you just got a lesson in 4th amendment rights. Never let anyone, including authority figures cop teachers, have your personal property ever. Even if you have nothing to hide.

  11. Re:Slaves on Stimulus Bill Contains Net Neutrality Provision · · Score: 1

    So it's invested in what? A fund that's 11 trillion in cash debt? Quite possibly 40 trillion in balance sheet debt? Remember this post through your lifetime. I hope some day it helps you come to realization.

  12. Slope on Stimulus Bill Contains Net Neutrality Provision · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Government enforced "openness" will allow government controlled "decency regulation."

  13. Re:Whew! Not Texas on South Carolina Seeking To Outlaw Profanity · · Score: 1

    This.

  14. Tagged Republicans? He's a Democrat on South Carolina Seeking To Outlaw Profanity · · Score: 2, Informative

    I wouldn't be surprised if either party introduced this bill but at least place the blame for this specific idiocy on in the correct place.

  15. Ashes in the fall on Obama Picks RIAA's Favorite Lawyer For Top DoJ Post · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If only it was productive to laugh when people realize their savior is similar to their enemy. I hate politicians.

  16. *sigh* needs more quality editors. on Psystar Claims Apple Forgot To Copyright Mac OS · · Score: 5, Insightful

    This is just an editor rant. I'm sorry, kdawson is just a horrible editor. First he posts "google is horrible they're not giving bonuses and feeding the masses dogfood; P.S. use linux" Then he posts this article which dozens of people have immediately spotted as B.S. I want my 7 minutes of reading Slashdot back.

  17. Failed premise on Psystar Claims Apple Forgot To Copyright Mac OS · · Score: 1

    You don't need to file with the copyright office to have a copyright. Simply claiming copyright is enough.

  18. Security vulnerability on NIST Announces Round 1 Candidates For SHA-3 Competition · · Score: 1

    The fact that the OS community uses MD5 still just shows how slow it is to move to new technology. MD5 is broken, it's trivial to collide. There are free alternative hashing algorithms. Stop using MD5, stop using MD5, STOP USING MD5!

  19. No excessive reliance or libraries? on Best Paradigm For a First Programming Course? · · Score: 1

    It sounds like you already have your mind made up so I'd just go with that.

    Libraries are what make or break languages. Libraries are the cornerstone of modern programming. No libraries? You need to start learning digital logic and buy a breadboard.

  20. North Korea or Iran on US Tests New Missile Defense · · Score: 1

    You picked two states with some of the poorest missile delivery ability in the world. You might as well have said Somalia because NK and Iran have no ability so launch ICBMs.

  21. Twitter what? on After Domain Squatting, Twitter Squatting · · Score: 0, Troll

    Who the hell uses Twitter? You web programming monkeys are soon to be out of jobs.

  22. Censored tags? on Microsoft's Ethical Guidelines · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    What happened to the kdawsonfud tags? Are these censored? When tags first came out they were always tagged with this but now when I tag them it never appears. It seems very odd these would be censored.

  23. Question already asked on Slashdot on Should IT Unionize? · · Score: 1, Troll

    Ah the union parasites are at it again, trying to latch on to a new industry because they've sucked the existing ones dry.
    This question has already been posted on Slashdot and already answered a resounding no.
    It's a shame unions have preyed on our poor for over a century; IT is too educated and informed to fall for the union bullshit.

  24. Heat pipe on Cost-Effective Server Room Air Conditioning? · · Score: 1

    Dig a hole, install pipe + water + pump, sink heat in to the ground. Ongoing costs = electricity to run a pump that only has to overcome fluid friction loss within the pipe. Cost variance over a year through different seasons = 0 since the ground in mostly a constant temp unlike an AC unit trying to sink heat to the air in the summer.

  25. Bikram Yoga on How Do Geeks Exercise? · · Score: 1

    Best exercise I've ever done.
