  1. You mean ... on ECC2-109 Winners Certified · · Score: 1

    "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine."

  2. No ... on Friedman on Linux Desktop Expectations · · Score: 1
    And by the way, both Nat Friedman and Miguel de Icaza's April 12th blog entry have a picture of Miguel and Nat dancing with David Vaskevitch, CTO of Microsoft. Now that's something you don't get to see everyday!
    No, it's something I don't want to see every day!

    I take that back. It's something I don't want to see at all!
  3. Wow. on Microsoft Announces Three More Critical Vulnerabilities · · Score: 1

    Finally up to, oh, crap I lost count after 57,683 exploits.

  4. Re:Chaotic Computing... on Chaotic Computing In Practice · · Score: 1
    Nothing new, I've been doing that since Windows 3.11! :)
    And people are still doing it in Windows XP. =)
  5. For ... on States Link Databases to Find Tax Cheats · · Score: 0, Redundant

    For all of you who have a problem with this, let me just say one thing: you have a problem with authority, insensitive clods.

  6. Re:They're coming for you! on States Link Databases to Find Tax Cheats · · Score: 1
    ...and stash the weed in your underwear drawer/blockquote>Just stash it in your underwear and hope they don't search you. =P
  7. Re:Yet more privacy issues. on States Link Databases to Find Tax Cheats · · Score: 1
    I wonder if the same company behind MATRIX, Seisint is the company behind or involved with this new initiative?
    Do you? =P
  8. PPC on Google's Early Hardware · · Score: 3, Informative
    Is that a PowerPC logo I see on one of their servers?
    Looks that way.
  9. Re:Can hear MS from here on Open Source Vulnerability Database Goes Live · · Score: 3, Funny
    How long will it take till they say that?
    If you're calculating time using Windows, it could be as long as 54,367 minutes.
  10. Re:sure. on How India is Saving Capitalism · · Score: 2, Interesting
    If companies refused to go off shore, then everyone would be able to survive and we wouldn't lose any jobs.
    If a company can't afford to pay its workers, it will either outsource or go out of business. If it goes out of business, no one survives.
  11. Re:wordperfect for DOS and DOSBox emu, thanks on Corel To Test WordPerfect For Linux · · Score: 1

    Oops, forgot the link.

  12. Re:wordperfect for DOS and DOSBox emu, thanks on Corel To Test WordPerfect For Linux · · Score: 1

    Then use TeX.

  13. Well ... on UK Government to Tax Linux? · · Score: 1

    Well, whether or not the site was an April Fools Day joke, it already got Slashdotted.

  14. Re:Free hardware on New Zaurus Linux PDA Available In the U.S. · · Score: 1
    Have you been taking math lessons from the RIAA?
    Maybe ...
  15. Re:Ummmmm...... on Death by Coffee? · · Score: 1
    You might want to look at the date. (Hint: It's not March anymore.)
    You mean it's May?
  16. Re:Free hardware on New Zaurus Linux PDA Available In the U.S. · · Score: 1
    The hardware is actually free, the $699 is to cover the Linux license.
    $599 for Linux, $99 for software patents, $0 for hardware.
  17. Re:The last "real" story? on New Zaurus Linux PDA Available In the U.S. · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Nope.

    The last "real" story is that Slashdot was Slashdotted before this story was posted.

  18. Re:Why Massachusetts is best on Study Says Massachusetts Best State For Technology · · Score: 1

    Eh ... make that "Microsoft."

  19. Why Massachusetts is best on Study Says Massachusetts Best State For Technology · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Massachusetts isn't dropping its suit against Mirosoft.

  20. Not surprising ... on SCO Uses 3rd Parties To Spread Claims In Germany · · Score: 5, Interesting
    Although, it appears from the article that SCO is side-stepping the agreement by commissioning 3rd party firms to spread their FUD for them.
    This is not, by any means, surprising. Companies like SCO almost always get third parties to do their dirty work for them.
  21. Stop! on Watch Your Neighbors Political Contribution · · Score: 1
    ...and frankly, for a healthy democracy...
    That should be "republic." Carry on.
  22. Re:Wow on PeopleAggregator - An Open Source Social Network · · Score: 2, Funny
    Another (better?) method to avoid coming in physical contact with other people.
    AIM, Slashdot, and phpBB just were't enough.
  23. Re:Stupid M$ "Innovation" on NEC Develops Linux Tablet/PDA Hybrid · · Score: 2, Funny
    Face it, a huge tablet isn't a PDA.
    That depends. If you mean "PDA" as in "Personal Digital Assistant," then it is a PDA. If you mean "PDA" as in "Public Display of Affection," it's not.
  24. Drugs? on Would You Like Drugs in Your Rice? · · Score: 2, Funny

    You bet I want drugs in my rice! Though if it's not cocaine or marijuana, forget it.

  25. Re:My iPod case holds pepper spray on iPod: This Season's Must-Have for Muggers · · Score: 1

    I've hacked my iPod to self-destruct! If I can't have it, no one can!

    Really, though, I think the pepper spray idea is much better. And non-product-harming.
