  1. I thought they were going green? on Google's Addiction to Cheap Electricity · · Score: 1

    I thought Google wanted to use green electricity and be CO2-neutral, and that doesn't require a specific place (well, a sunny and/or windy place would be nice).

  2. Re:on privacy on Eat, Drink, and be Monitored · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Disclaimer: I am Dutch ;) First off, I don't think it has anything to do with religion, people just like to watch people and gossip about it, especially in small communities. You almost don't see this behaviour in the cities and in small towns it's reducing, I think (I live in a city myself). You can also look at this in an other perspective: Maybe the open curtains say: we have nothing to hide, look at us? Or maybe people just like to watch birds. And I don't what you are trying to say about the "doe normaal"-saying: when someone wants to kick someone's ass: that's not conforming to "morally & socially" approved behaviour, is it wrong to say "please act normal" in that situation? Or when someone is shouting through the streets? Or when someone says he likes to have sex with dead chickens?

  3. Obligatory on Female Sharks Can Reproduce Alone · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I, for one, welcome our new female shark overlords. Or should I say hermaphrodite sharks?

  4. What's the trick? on Amazon to Open DRM-Free MP3 Music Download Store · · Score: 1

    There must be some kind of trick here, I think. Why is this coming so late? It seems to good to be true, but I really hope it's true :)

  5. Re:Why does Google hate America? on Google to Hold Worldwide Developer Day · · Score: 0, Troll

    America isn't the centre of the world. There's no conference in Africa too. And Where's New Delhi in the list?

  6. Imagine... on A Single-Photon Server · · Score: 4, Funny

    A Beowulf cluster of THESE! That would be something.

  7. Re:So what's the story? on Golfer Sues Over Vandalized Wikipedia Entry · · Score: 1

    On the English Wikipedia, that is.

  8. Ethanol? on Obama Announces for President, Boosts Broadband · · Score: 0

    The problem is not the dependence of the USA to oil, but the fact the USA is destroying the environment and the whole world with it. 30% of the CO2 comes from the USA, that's just not right. In stead of building more defense, the USA should invest in uclear fusion, windmills, solar power, whatever. The USA could create a nuclear bomb in a few years, until this day the one thing that has the most destructive power, it's about time they're doing something nice with that same atoms: nuclear fusion. If the stake is high, and it is high, this should be done in a few years, just as 65 years ago.

  9. Re:beards on Women Get Lots of Info From Male Faces · · Score: 1

    Midgets.

  10. Finally! on Linux Distributors Work Towards Desktop Standards · · Score: 3, Interesting

    What Linux needs is standardization. Having 921034 options to choose from is sometimes a good thing, but sometimes you have the feeling: why don't they just work all on 1 fantastic piece of software?

  11. Re:Dude on Guitar Hero II Announced · · Score: 1

    That comparison makes absolutely no sense. :/

  12. Dude on Guitar Hero II Announced · · Score: 0, Troll

    Just buy the most sucky acoustic guitar there is. For less money you have more fun with a real guitar!

  13. Hm on On Apple vs Apple · · Score: 0, Redundant

    How you like them apples?

  14. The result: on On Apple vs Apple · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Applesauce. Sweet.

  15. Re:Sites that don't do 4/1? on OpenSSH Vulnerability Discovered · · Score: 1

    Dude, don't take life that seriously. Go outside, enjoy the nature, make love / a pie / a tower of legos!

  16. They're lucky on Sun Grid DOS'd · · Score: 5, Funny

    They're lucky Slashdot didn't linked to the project, otherwise they would've been DDOS'd for the second time.

  17. Re:But they already exist on ICANN Considers Single Letter Domains · · Score: 0, Redundant

    "Single-letter names under ".com," ".net" and ".org" were set aside in 1993 as engineers grew concerned about their ability to meet the expected explosion in demand for domain names. They weren't sure then whether a single database of names could hold millions -- more than 40 million in the case of ".com" today. Six single-letter names already claimed at the time -- "q.com," "x.com, "z.com," "i.net," "q.net," and "x.org" -- were allowed to keep their names for the time being." source

  18. I'm getting tired of this on What's New With IE, Firefox, Opera · · Score: 5, Funny

    They are only browsers! A piece of software where you can check out websites with! They are not that important, you see. Dude.

  19. Two Words on Preview Of The $100 Laptop · · Score: 0

    Beowulf. Cluster.

  20. Re:Where is the story? on Google's Summer of Code Over · · Score: 5, Informative

    LOL, I forgot to put my source in it: http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/3 547611 Slashdot editors, please put it in the story?

  21. Ah on Alternative Browsers Impede Investigations · · Score: 1

    So that's why they can't find my legion of cybernetic rabbits!

  22. Re:Help on After 20 Years, Phrack's Final Issue Looms · · Score: 1

    O yeah, and I was serious?

  25. Re:well now... on Microsoft Expects 1 Billion Windows Users by 2010 · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Reflexes, it's all about reflexes. And being bored so you just refresh slashdot every second.
