This does remind me of my school days, I got apprehended because I was playing with a magnet during lesson.
This reminds me of my (high) school days too, except I used the magnet to mess up a computer screen, wasted away a month of classes playing arcade games on the net, and my whole class used windows messenger to talk to each other for about a week. None of which anyone got punished for.
I did, however, get apprehended for writing a program and using someone else's login to fill up their disk space, which I did a couple months of turoring for, instead of getting suspended.
forget the good old days, everything here happened in the past 2 years, plus wasting away english class playing link games of MarioKart on the GBA!
"Ah, you gotta love the good old days." "Dude, that was last week!"
this would be great if there weren't so many other studies ruined by the fact that the demographic of people who drink coffee might take better care of themselves. for example: people who drink huge amounts of expensive coffee probably don't have a high obesity rate, but that is because they typically take good care of their bodies, not because expensive coffee increases your metabolism or anything.
NO way I'd use trusted computing. I can barely trust my computer to save a text file properly, why would i trust it with anything important.
(also, if BIOS is in demand then people will still make comps with them)
Slashdot Mirror
...(thanks Internode)
...and to show our appreciation, we're going to slashdot you.
create open source gaming. or at least freeware. so then everyone can play everyone else's games.
That being said, I'm having a lot of fun playing "older" games right now.
And here's a third: SCO expands licensing money chase worldwide.
Some related stories here? Maybe SCO wants to license Europe and Are geeks in Saudia Arabia just like us? are related.
A jumping off point for SCO perhaps? To kill the "infidels" while they're young?
I'm starting a collection. Send paypal donations to DarlMcBrideMarsTicket@yahoo.com.
That's cool, I'm doing the same thing. Send paypal donations to BillGatesMarsTickets@hotmail.com.
"a measly $5 million...Paypal, anyone?"
/. readers, that's $10 each. Maybe they'd even give us a plaque.
Say there are 1/2 million active
copy SCO's every move.
closed source, open source, whoever you're trying to make pay, it'll be the same.
shoot me. just shoot me. please. I have lost all hope in men.

what's next, petented hyperlinks?
The consumer wins in this one. Yay for that.
Technologically illiterate peoples of the world rejoice!
So he releases the kernel and runs away. what does he know that we don't?
You can download Maestro and...

Although silence is "the loudest sound", you can't hear it.

how much money can you save by dumbing down software? a lot, because unskilled labour is cheap.
then again, computer professionals can be as well, i guess

yes, but does it run lin...
oh.
(kudos to the guy who started that phrase)
where's SCO when you need them?
does this mean we can slashdot houses? cool.
Spartacus. I watched it at a party a little while ago. There's also a Rage Against the Machine concert DVD out as well.
in the first paragraph he refers to /. as a virus.
does that mean the RIAA can sue him too?

I'm glad it sounds like extortion. It'd be a sad day when you needed protection to use open source.
but all his posts have modded -1 plz don't mod me down, my karma's bad enough
Why would anyone want to use linux? its free. open source means no secrets.
