  3. Re:10c? on Hard Drive Cooling for 10 Cents · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I see absolutely nothing wrong with this.

    It gives slashdot an even lower signal to noise ratio.

    BTW, you forgot to capitalize your little acronym there. You're the wannabe Ferengi I guessed would mod me down, too bad you didn't have mod points today.

    No, but he's happy to tell you where to buy them.

    Approximate quote from TFA: "you can buy fans here ( http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-1651435-54502),
    This is just another case of Roland Piquepaille... Check out the top level of his domain too, it's just an ad site...

    1. Create site about obvious hack with refferer commision links.
    2. Post your site on high volume site like /.
    3. Profit.

    4. Piss me off for wasting my time. I even wasted my time typing this up, I'm sure some "people have a right to profit" dude will mod me down.

  5. Re:is linux guilty of murder now? on Tux Enlisted for U.S. Defense Program · · Score: 1

    I for one don't need the US military to use linux for killing to know it's good. I know it's unavoidable though.. :(

    But what about the corporations? Won't they think this is proof the penguin is good?
    Who cares?

  6. Re:mercurialism on No More BitKeeper Linux · · Score: 1

    Miners also used mercury to distill gold out of gold ore. Now, when you do this for an extended amount of time, you share fate with the hatters. The greed of gold fever = mercury madness.

  7. Re:Geek speak translator on 'Geek Speak' Confuses Net Users · · Score: 1

    Phishing is a bad name -- I heard the term several times before I realized that it was slang for phony Web sites. The general public should be warned about phony Web sites; they don't need to know the definition of phish.

    The definition of phish I would suspect a lot of them know it allready.

  9. Re:They were begging for it. on Wordpress Banned by Google for Spamming · · Score: 2, Informative

    Ok, i used the wrong word, I guess what I meant was site inclusion policy or something of the the sort. But they relied on google (their money came from using their high rank with google), and they did something that google has made it quite clear that they would drop them from their index for.

  10. They were begging for it. on Wordpress Banned by Google for Spamming · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They had a high google rank, and profited(/broke even?) on it by breaking google's terms of service.
    Not too surprising that google did something about it.

    uh, no, just cut of the logs at 1 sec before slashdot got a hold of the news...

  12. Re:Saw one last night on TiVo Starts Testing "Pop-up" Ads · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Well, that's ok, the ad worked anyway. Next time you go to the movie theatre, rental place or best buy, and you see the movies cover/logo you will probably recognize it, and maybe pick up the box. That's how ads work.

    They don't (usually) aim for getting you to jump out of your sofa and run screaming to the store to buy the product...

  17. Maybe Linux has violations in it.. on Software Patents Could Stop EU Linux Development · · Score: 4, Interesting

    ..but don't they lose the right to sue after it has infringed openly for some time? Linux is as open as it gets. And it's been here a while too. Hell, it might even count as previous art against some of the more frivolous (ie most) software patents.

    On my palm zire 72s snes emulation is fine too, with nice diagonal control goodness. And To all you palm users who are stuck paying for various emlulators, check out http://yoyofr92.free.fr/ljp/ , the swiss army knife of emulators, with gb, gbc, nes, snes, genesis & master system emulation.

    try udmh (google) if you don't have enough memory to run snes roms.

  20. Skolelinux on Building a Linux Computer Lab for Schools? · · Score: 5, Informative

    Check out Skolelinux (Distrowatch page) (Linux for schools, Norwegian name). Made to work perfectly with LTSP, and based on debian stable. On the install cd you can choose to install the Skolelinux server or thin clients, or a standalone install. Plenty of educational software availible. The thin client install runs fine on older hardware. Give it a try.

  25. Re:Dumbest. Editor. Evar. on Carbon Dating & The Shroud of Turin · · Score: 1

    I don't believe there is a god, just as I don't believe that sony will not start selling the PSP for $10, or some other equally mundane fact. Think of it as a variable, as in $PSP_price = 450; $deity = NULL;

    And I believe that you will never agree with me anyway, and amazingly, I get annoyed. Oh well

    Seriously, I don't go around thinking "I'm an atheist, I'm an atheist. I must remember to actively not pray today." Religion just isn't an aspect of my life. Many christians seem to find it difficult to accept that people choose to spend their time differently than them. As in your need to claim atheism is a religion (why do you care?).

    Notice the words "don't believe". It's just a different wording.

    Atheists believe that there is no God. Atheisms[sic] is no different than any other religion, and as usual, it's supporters like to think themselves as rational and their religion[sic] the only logical one. However, as of yet, no one has managed to proof[sic] that atheist beliefs are correct.

    Well, we are rational, and correct, but I won't try to convince you. You can keep your delusions, if you like. Do you need proof for every other obvious thing in life?
