  1. Re:The only thing that could make this better on Vista Bug Costs Users In Swedish Town Their Internet · · Score: 0

    Our local LUG here in the Lund/Malmö area has tried to do this, but the problem is that distros refuse to send us the disks...

  2. Yay on Vista Bug Costs Users In Swedish Town Their Internet · · Score: 0

    Never thought my little obscure home town would get on Slashdot :)

    Regarding the matter at hand, I actually live like 200 meters from the Lunds Energi company mentioned in the article but haven't heard anything about this issue until now. Something tells me that this has been exaggerated. The whole city is blanketed with free wifi anyway, so it's not like we're dying or anything.

    Oh, and if you need to know anything about blondes, beer or vikings, feel free to ask ;)

  3. Re:How to travel with security... on Airport Screeners could see X-rated X-rays · · Score: 0

    Hey man, I like your thinking... I have a European pro-gun/hacking webzine that I want you to write for. Send me a mail at borius@gmail.com

  4. Not all professions can telecommute on Work No Longer a Place but an Activity · · Score: 0

    For instance: doctors, firefighters, police (they'd need donut delivery at the doorstep to telecommute).

  5. Re:Reliable? on Sony Develops 25 GB Paper Disc · · Score: 0

    D'Argo, is that you?

  6. Re:No no no on Security and School - How Should One Speak Up? · · Score: 0

    I'm shocked. You went to jail for nmap:ing a server? WTF! They can't do that, it's not illegal. Taking your computer privileges is one thing, jail another... What country do you live in?

  7. Heh on Sake Used to Make Wooden Speakers · · Score: 0

    All your bass are belong to us

  8. Re:What is farscape's appeal? on Sci Fi Confirms Forthcoming Farscape Miniseries · · Score: 0

    Hehe... What makes me like Farscape? Aeryn Sun :) Man, she is the hottest woman alive...

  9. Hmm on States Link Databases to Find Tax Cheats · · Score: 0

    Does this include Slashdot?

  10. 3 words on San Francisco Flashmob Attempts Supercomputer · · Score: -1, Troll

    Get a life

  11. Re:Open Source on HyperCard Gone for Good · · Score: 1

    Mind explaining the joke?

  12. This might have interesting side-effects... on XPde 0.5 - A Linux Desktop for Windows Users · · Score: 1
  13. Re:Uh oh! on Automobiles Evolve to Live Up to Their Name · · Score: 1

    I can just see it now. People will start hacking into cars' computer systems... you'll start seeing random crashes, or cars doing 360s constantly. Or driving off cliffs. Not to mention that the market for off-road vehicles will either boom or bust if self-driving cars become a standard.

    Easy... install OpenBSD

    How will people possibly deal with their road rage?!

    Playing Carmageddon whilst driving of course

  14. Excellent on Loud Metallic Noise Heard at ISS · · Score: 2, Funny

    The real Metallica is back after having been missing since 1991! Excellent!

  15. News for nerds, stuff that matters??? on Dating Design Patterns · · Score: 1

    What's this review doing on /.?

  16. You know what I think... on PHP Template Engines? · · Score: 1

    I think there are way too many business types on Slashdot who spout buzzwords like "business logic" and "n-tier model". Where are all the old-school hacker guys? All I read about these days is making robust code that has lots of maintainability and other boring stuff like that... Is hacking dirty? Only if you do it right :)

    Heh, flamesuit on :)

  17. Pop-ups on Computer Resources for Older People? · · Score: 1

    Your mom is gonna be scared away from all forms of computer use when she has her first pop-up barrage with stretched bumholes and whatnot. So, get Mozilla.

    Just something to consider...

  18. Well, on Fighting the Forced Ranking of Employees? · · Score: 5, Funny

    at least you still get to keep your stapler, right?

  19. Re:Kinda like what Gillette does on Gates: Hardware, Not Software, Will Be Free · · Score: 1

    making sure that you only run Uncle Bill's paid for software on that shinny new commodity hardware he gave you.

    Nice Simpsons reference :) It's the episode where Willy gets killed three times (Halloween special). "Careful, you might get sued" hehe.
  20. Re:bows on Homebrew Musical Instruments? · · Score: 2, Informative

    What the heck is a guitar bow? I have never heard of such a thing!

    Never heard of Led Zeppelin then?
  21. Kinda like what Gillette does on Gates: Hardware, Not Software, Will Be Free · · Score: 1

    They give you a free razor, but the razor-blades cost a lot.

    Similary, Billy will give you some very cheap mass-produced chip to play with, but tax you heavily for the software to actually do anything... We can see this happening today with computers getting cheaper and cheaper and Windows being kept at an artifically high price level.

  22. Screw the Porsche... on Spammer's Porsche Up For Grabs · · Score: 1

    ...and give me some free Viagra!

  23. Re:Please help us on China Blocks Typepad, Prompts Weblog Blackout · · Score: 1


    Today we find that China now block sites like blogs.

    You lucky bastards...

  24. Re:Censorship. on Swedish ISP Blocks Computers That Send Spam · · Score: 0

    The Swedish freedom of speech constitution is both older and stronger than the American

    Half-truth. Sweden gained freedom of speech in 1766 but it was lost in 1792, after king Gustav III repealed it.

  25. Megadeth reference in article on Apple, Scully, And Intel vs. Motorola · · Score: 0

    From the song "Sweating bullets":


    Hello me... Meet the real me
    And my misfits way of life
    A dark black past is my
    Most valued possession
    Hindsight is always 20-20,
    But looking back it's still a bit fuzzy
    Speak of mutually assured destruction?
    Nice story... Tell it to Reader's Digest!
