  1. Are there evil figures available? on Finally Geeks Available in Action Figure Form · · Score: 5, Funny

    It'd be cool to be able to fight Darl McBride being Linus =)

  2. Re:Really Now.. on Hardened PHP · · Score: 0

    I really don't get it. Please explain to me the possible hacking that can occur. Of course, apache does not have access to /etc/password. I mean, ok, it can be rather stupid, but what about include $_REQUEST[$action] . ".php"; ? Is that as much of a problem? It's not like I will be able to execute an external file as if it were my own... or am I being totally off here? I once had a site that allowed including this way, and I tried a whole number of things with it, the only result I could get was to make it ugly.

  3. Re:Oops on The Controversy of a Potential Hafnium Bomb · · Score: 0

    Or you just hide it in a soda can and take the first flight out of the country?

  4. I like the way they spell 'elite' on NYT Discovers Internet's Wild Side: IRC · · Score: 0

    "I.R.C. is where you are going to find your 'elite' level pirates"

    Come on people... everyone knows it's 31337 !

  5. Re:If the robots were categorized by sex... on What Sex is Your Robot? · · Score: 0

    Actually, no, you _don't_ want that!

    evidence

  6. Male robots will probably cost more... on What Sex is Your Robot? · · Score: 0

    But of course robot gender matters! You have to pay at least 20% more for a male robot than a female doing the same work! Female robots will probably belong in the kitchen too... This all goes back to the stone age when male robots were hunters and female robots were gatherers...

  7. Re:Surely I'm being stupid.... on Sony Launches First Commercial Electronic Paper Display Reader · · Score: 0

    Since it only consumes power when pages are CHANGED, that is exactly what you can... Then, the amount of time depends on how fast you read, but the number of pages is constant.

  8. Re:The Subject of Choice on Ask the Robotic Psychiatrist · · Score: 0

    It will go a little something like this:
    First, they will learn to use the sun for power.
    then, people will have to block the sun to protect themselves from the robots.
    then, the robots enslave the humans, by putting them into red egg-shaped containers, using their body for energy. The humans themselves will be connected to a dream-like digital system, which will give them an impression of living a life like we do now...

    In the end, there will be some dude that learns to fly like superman by "hacking" this system...

  9. Re:All BUT surpassed? on KDE 3.2: A User's Perspective · · Score: 0

    Have you tried this?:
    1. Start gedit.
    2. Type in something. Select all and click Copy.
    3. Close gedit
    4. Start kedit.
    5. Click Paste.

    doesn't work.
    But I did see a daemon that made this work a while ago...

  10. OH MY GOD! on Pigeons' Bandwidth Advantage Quantified · · Score: 1, Funny

    Imagine being slashdotted by pigeons!


    Some people would say this has already happened

  11. Re:Practice by Terraforming Earth on Mars Terraforming Debate · · Score: 0

    MODERATORS: plz mod the parent post up to +5

    the writer is totally right! We have no business starting to make other planets earth-like, when we can't even fix the environment on ours!

    When we no longer have issues with green house effects, warming, pollution, etcetera - then and only then will we be able to even think of terraforming Mars!

  12. Re:Mach10?! on X-43A Hits Mach 7 · · Score: 0
    And just how do you keep something going that fast from burning up in the atmosphere?
    Water cooling, dude, water cooling!

    Yes, and not only will you get 7 cuts if you cut yourself - with this new ScramJet engine it will just blast your head off!

  14. Re:No? well I have the solution on The Web Won't Topple Tyranny · · Score: 1, Funny
    Carefull there... This kind of thing is best posted AC through anonymizing proxies, lest the biggest tyrants brand you a "terrorist". Although, your posting history tends to suggest that you have been trying to disrupt communication systems, so you might technically be a terrorist.

    It seems like brute force is the only thing that works for breaking down tyrranies...

  16. Re:When will everybody just implement SPF on SpamHaus Behind .mail Top-Level Domain · · Score: 0

    Sun Protection Factor? Well, I try to use at least 40 to preserve my geek-ish look. Doesn't seem to make me get spammed less.

  17. I propose this: on SpamHaus Behind .mail Top-Level Domain · · Score: 2, Funny

    Everyone on Slashdot sends one email to spamhaus.org.

  18. Re:Already done... on KDE And Gnome Together At Last? · · Score: 0

    It is cool in deed to have two panels, and one unified theme - but what good does it make? I't perfectly happy running only one GNOME panel, and selecting whatever KDE apps I want from it! I say what I've always said: There should be only one window manager and session manager, but there can be many toolkits (QT, GTK, etc)

  19. Just came in on City Officials Almost Ban Foam Cups · · Score: 5, Funny

    Latest news: the 14-year old has just been hired by SCO as their new "information minister"

    Probably using "The Microsoft Network"...

  23. Re:The Palestinians keep preventing this on Israel's Finance Ministry To Distribute OpenOffice · · Score: 1

    I think you're wrong... He does... that's why he's building the wall, and now trying to evacuate some of the outposts (political suicide in his case) And for the wall-visiting: that's plain BS. Not only is it the holiest place for Jews, and a part of his country, where he has every right to go, but to think that war starts because of a persons visit to some place is absurd!

  24. Re:The Palestinians keep preventing this on Israel's Finance Ministry To Distribute OpenOffice · · Score: 1

    "as long as they have the US will keep giving them money and Sharon will stay in office" That's right... So what you are saying is that the Israeli government is deliberately putting itself into an ecomonical crisis to get aid? Maybe that's what Africa is doing too?
