  1. Re:You used to be cool, Google. on Google Goes to Washington · · Score: 1, Troll
    And thus you become one of the trolls you are attempting to forestall. Get a life, Slashdot is a bunch of individuals with differing opinions.

    _Of course_ the people that like $THING are prone to commenting in stories about $THING. Get over it.

  2. Re:Is it worth it? on DIY Electronic Paper Display · · Score: 1
    With E-paper, you can get a much larger chunk - 8.5x11, and it's as easy on the eyes as actual paper. Did you ever notice how much reading for 8 hours from a CRT will strain your eyes? I've even noticed it from an LCD (the backlight is straining, after all).

    The power requirements are better, too - you only need power when changing the display. So, you could have an "ebook" that's maybe 1/4" thick with a nice display, plenty of memory (preferably that only needs power when being read/written) and a tiny battery - the whole thing would last quite a while. Oh, and be able to store many many books worth of data. Not to mention adding the ability to search! And a clickable table of contents/index.

    Am I to understand that you are a 13 year old girl, sir? Or just on the internet?

    :p

  4. Short answer: on China Sets New Rules On Internet News · · Score: 1

    yes.

  5. FFS on Firefox 1.0.7 Released · · Score: 1

    Everytime there's a new Firefox release, legions of people incapable of reading other comments complain about this. The browser updates come a day or two after the official release. If you're impatient, download it manually.

  6. -1 Troll on The Implications of Google's Digital Library · · Score: 1
    That would be true if google were scanning books that are not in the public domain.

    Google is being *nice* to the publishers.

  7. Re:Slashdot users on Another Round of HP Layoffs · · Score: 2
    What on earth are you trying to say? That's not even close to coherent. Summed up, you're saying:

    evil leftist just show how dumb slashdoters are. Geeks like technology.

    See what I mean? :)

  8. What a ridiculous advertisement! on New Winzip in the Works · · Score: 4, Funny

    Great, an AD pretending to be an article. Not only that, it's for a Windows product on a Linux-based website!

  9. huh? on 1 in 9 Companies Sign Linux Trademark Letter · · Score: 1

    You're a roll, eh?

  10. Err on 1 in 9 Companies Sign Linux Trademark Letter · · Score: 1

    1 in 9 > 10%. So that would be going down.

  11. Re:The main problem as I see it on Firefox Share Slipped in July for the First Time · · Score: 2, Funny
    I have both IE and Firefox on my machine. Why?

    Because you can't remove IE?

  12. Re:firefox on US Copyright Office Considering MSIE-only website · · Score: 1
    Uh, no, that's because:

    1. That link isn't even what the blurb is talking about
    2. RTFA, they're talking about IE + Netscape, not IE only
    3. You ate troll bait.

  13. Re:Idea for Blizzard... on PK'ing Banned in China For Minors · · Score: 1

    So? It's thier perogative. Just because your moral code works in one way does not invalidate all other moral codes.

  14. Re:This sounds like it could be the US! Very scary on PK'ing Banned in China For Minors · · Score: 1

    No no, it's sex/nudity that the christian extremists can't handle, not violence. After all, these are the people behind the crusades.

  15. Re:Thank you Astronomers/Researchers for good scie on Hackers Forced Announcement of 10th Planet Find · · Score: 1

    Uh, except it wasn't a script kiddie, it was some guy using google.

  18. Re:Automating This Procedure, and debunking miths on Running Windows With No Services · · Score: 1
    First off, it's "myth," not "mith."

    Second off, you're the one spreading myths - JOIN did not exist in DOS 6.22.

  19. Re:Unbelievable. on Microsoft Genuine Advantage Cracked in 24 Hours · · Score: 1

    Dude, wtf are you smoking? The MS Validation Control and this Genuine Advantage crap are TWO COMPLETELY SEPERATE AND UNRELATED THINGS.

  20. Re:Responsible Behavior? on Researcher Resigns Over New Cisco Router Flaw · · Score: 1
    If he really released information he researched at ISS without consent, well, he should face consequences. Because I obviously was to gain from it (getting a new job, making a name or himself). Hopefully he wasn't just doing it for the publicity.

    Whose consent does he need? If I release information that Cisco is acting like a whiny bitch, do I need to get thier consent before doign so? Get a clue.

  21. Halfwit troll on Canadian Telco Admits to Blocking Union's Website · · Score: 1

    Uh, no, they can not do whatever they want with it AND keep thier common carrier license. One or the other.

    Hey, I could sketch paintings I saw and get my own copy, too!

    The point is that what you're suggesting is a very lossy process.
