"that teaches kids it's OK to diss people because they are a woman, they're a different colour or they're from a different place"
I have to agree it isn't ok! I like busted up a coupla prozzies and I got 3 stars and the next thing I knew I had the pigs bustin' caps all over the shop, I had to hide behind some old folk!
Well I died, and the moral of the story is, if you go busting up prozzies, the next day when you get out on a bribe you are gonna have to walk hella far and restart your mission.
The page rank friendly linking? 'digital music' to his website of ringtones?
WTF? take off the advert right now! If I search for digital music I don't want nextel ringtones coming up, yet this articles publication implies that/. does!
This article is a copy/paste *with* link spam!
WARNING: LINK SPAM IN ARTICLE. kthxbye (is/. part of the cure, or part of the problem?)
If she turns up dead from the Co$ nutters we/.'rs should unite and go military on thier asses:
The Church of Scientology (or: CoS; or: Co$, as some of their opponents call it) sells its followers expensive courses which, if students study them carefully, are supposed to set them free ('clear' them). A former Scientology member, Steven Fishman, was brought before court because he committed several crimes in order to get the money to pay for these courses. Scientology urged him to get the money any which way he could. According to Fishman, they also assigned him to kill somebody, and failing that, ordered him to commit suicide.
Scientogloy if a cult designed purely to make money, rather like other cults, but more sinister, as they are trying to be even monopolisticin the evil department.
They make contact through IQ tests, herding in the gulible and vain, with some plausible junk about increasing IQ and other shit, then it is like a pyramid marketting scheme where you train up and teach others, it only pushes itself into 'religion' because it can seek protection under religious law clauses.
Just treat is as a money leeching pyramid scheme and you can't do to bad. If you meet a hot scientologist chick, shag her, then piss on her and leave her pregnant, and laugh at her occassionally via phone.
If we do that enough times we could stamp it out!
(if you meet a scientologist guy, just ask him about aliens that are stuck to you and how to get rid of them, and then take it seriously and start cutting yourself saying "GET THEM OFF ME OH MY FUCKING HELL AAAAAAAARGH") and see if he uses his supernatural powers to save himself.
Official: Scientology is worse than a piquepaille/. story.
No that is fine, others want more control, and to stop people profiting from derrivatives, or in the case of GPL, to stop people abusing thier work competatively. Even though I am sure M$ are up for a GPLviolation sometime soon with thier longhorn.
Imagine some poor misguided soul (aren'tt hey all?) at SCO having one last stab.. suing Microsoft for infringment... like a snake bitting its own tail.
I have actually had a snake rear up and strike at me, the dumb shit was behind glass, the resulting 'boink' and smear almost made me loose bladder control.. stupid snake.
Moral high ground? Fuck what the shitty bloggers are doing, they are just poisoning the page rank even more.
I don't think the way to fix google is to let some dull bloggers have a hollow victory by bombing 'viagra' and 'online poker'.
Why? Because people searching for these terms are:
a) looking for encyclopedic entries b) looking to play / order these online
ok, so there you go, another disservice from the arrogant blogger community. Stories abound how people with so little actual intelligence are shredding the index far worse than spammers, and then blogger comments themselves (a simple technological fix that even witht he help of google themselves isn't widespread) screw up the index, and now they say, hey we will fix it!! woooah, look at us!! we blog, we edit wiki.. we are so cool! click-our-sponsors-please.
What right do they have in deciding what they think people should see by counter screwing the page rank.
What now, they should bomb 'ringtones' and put thier own site up? Any mass movement to artificially dupe google sucks, if it is done for spam reasons or some self appointed quest for justice.
I watched an issue of Deutsche Welt news in a cheapish hotel in Brussels.
Some crafty Germans use mirrors and reflectors on a mountain to focus light onto prisms in town squares to illuminate dark areas of towns during the day.
In other news, some crafty people have windows that bend light further into the room, giving more even lighting.
In other news - I had this idea ages [20yrs?] ago, concentrating the light down fibers and then using technology like this new refractive cheapo flat screens (see/.) illuminate office spaces. and in that film with the unicorn and the devil, that hobbit like chap uses mirrors to send sunlight into hell. good flick.
What I have realised is that innovation is happening faster, and cheaper to implement and simpler ideas are becoming more commonplace.
One-handed-typing now easier with revolutionary palm-o-tronic anti-jitter mouse!
Hurrah for technology. Actually my father has a type of arthritis that makes using a mouse tiring on his hands, so any work on this area is great. Also as a keyboard user since I was 2 I guess I am going to mangle up my hands until I am 60. seem ok so far.

I just wondered why the link didn't work, then I remembered my own sig! hahhaha lol
All slashdot articles which features the OSDN have a cool and transparent littled ditty that/. is part of the OSDN.
I asked the advertisers to suspend his account for copyright infringment, to thier credit they did seem to investigate, but were lenient. Perhaps if we all email them they will take heed.
I am also sure that the other sites have no given explicit reuse right to him, and they are no happy with him taking the ad revenue for thier content.
(and he has the nerve for chastising other people for copy/pasting his rss feed headers, and even whoring his own link under another alias...)
Example: I saw something interesting today:
"5 pages copy paste"
and also this which was totally rad, because like, you know:
"7 pages copy paste"
Oh, like, you know, I took some content off foolamentlemonbitedustbar website (no url link)
ALL CONTENT TOTALLY COPYRIGHT ME PLEASE VISIT SPONSORS (not that it matters, I earn my keep from posting/. articles)
I browse without sigs, which annoys me when idiots (many) PASTE thier sigs into the comments (I have wondered to myself how much people get away with in thier sigs...). Keep it in the sig, and let me decide to see it, otherwise ifyou paste it as part of you comment (not sig) then it is offtopic for you, or over-rated or even troll.
I hate ipod-sig-whores. Check out my sig though, I think you will like it!:-)
If you are in a burning building, which fireman would you like:
Fireman a: in it for the paycheck, has 2 year old daughter, doesn't want to risk himself.
Fireman b: wants to save people, will risk his own life to save others, less ties.
If you are the head of a software team, would you prefer a person who will sacrifice more of less?
If you are Walmart would you prefer those who work like asses [think mule] or those who sit on thier asses?
Just because you want to wave you flag, you have to see that you are on the other side of the equation, hence you comment is a little redundant in that respect (attacking someone for having an opposite opinion, when they are on the opposite side really).
Work to live, don't live to work, yes, very deep, you are my socialist hero. I actually like my job I am lucky, but my life is also very rich, I always have to balance my job and life, I certainly go early and finish early when I can, and time is always an issue.
If I have nothing planned i am not going to sit home and watch tv though, i'd much rather fine tune that routing algorithm or fix that rather narking memory leak [tiny] that is hidden really deep in some code, and puzzles me.
You also forget that work is life. Retirment can get dull, because our minds like to work. Some people paint as a hobby, others do it as a job, I ski for fun, others are instructors. I guess being a ski instructor must be fun, but it must also grate on you a bit at times, like any job.
who enjoys working overtime...because he is a miserable git I htought you said he enjoys working overtime?
Yes here is another saying you can run up the flagpole and see which way it blows: All work and no play makes johnny pull out a rifle and pick people off one by one from a clock tower. Or something like that.
Don't just shoot down another side with yotu argument without giving some credit for the fact that THEY ARE ACTUALLY RIGHT. Your views are not mutually exclusive it is possible for the boss to want you to work to death, and for you to want ot be a hip and cool guy and tell everyone how good you life is... JUST because these two ideals ARE mutually exclusive, the condition whjere two people can hold each of them is 100% plausible, and actually the norm.
First: grid computing on demand takes another step forward, which is great.
Second: (do not mention the word 'law' in a reply) How long will it be until this type of supercomputer will not really look so great against home machines, I mean, I guess they will always upgrade... but pay now and then in 3 years you can buy the equiptment?
EXTRA BONUS POINTS: Firstly the URL is so ghay for google (placing keywords in filename, the site is ugly (objective) yet has no meta tags (yes you can remove meta tags [after indexed], but they are expecting this link to be spidered right? Lastly, the font size! I couldn't quite see it (the only ref is to 11pt in the css). It hurts my eyes on my 19" monitor set to just 1280x1024
Oh and thier CSS uses uppercase selectors... a no no. bah.
Slashdot Mirror
The key words "SHALT", "SHALT NOT", "SMITE", and "PILLAR OF SALT" in this document are to be interpreted as expected.

Now prowl the comments for people saying 'why didn't they just use xyz protocol?' without realising
and I guess april fools, not must RTFA in case it is something!
The problem is, I think everything is april fools! damn!
In flash you can embedd the font anyway.... this is a bastard child solution.
Use flash, or don't. Otherwise the existing 'problem' isn't a problem, I have installed the fonts I want, use them.
Browsers could have a font api... but can you imagine the design travesties?
eurgh!
I go on there, I have no idea (without arduous checking of history) if the content hasn't been slashdot trolled.
It says the '2nd' longest written down.
Also, who knows if the original is correct, and I guess with diffs the 1 letter chanegs can be found.
Anyone posted the largest known prime to wiki yet?
Trolls putting a 2 onthe end will cause some giggles.
ok that is me.,
