    Groucho Marx glasses. Goes right along with the 1st ammendment, you choose the way you look.

  2. ok computer. on What Formula Would You Tattoo? · · Score: 1

    1=2 we hope that you choke.

  3. Berne Convention on Music Industry Raids Taiwan Campuses For MP3s · · Score: 1

    Wasn't Taiwan one of the only countries not to ratify the Berne Convention? If so then why are they bothering to enforce foreign copyrights?

  4. Re:Slashdot and Common Carrier status on Scientologists Force Comment Off Slashdot · · Score: 1

    But will the post office be threatened with a lawsuit if say I mail a photocopy of the document in question to you? Nope.

  5. Re:RMS is a consultant.... on Ethics In Computer Consulting · · Score: 2

    I just find it sad that somebody had the time to write that.

  6. Re:...and you're clueless! on Undernet In Serious Trouble: Any Suggestions? (Updated) · · Score: 1

    except maybe to the effnet admins pride
    Bombarding undernets webserver would damage efnet admin's pride? :)
    Picky, yes. Funny, hopefully.

  7. Re:Not Just Dot.Bombs... on She Was Fired, But Never Told · · Score: 1

    "And you knew that if someone was one of the "disappeared" that you did not ask about them, or you might get the same fate."

    1984 anyone?

  8. Inexpensive Way To Reduce Computer Screen Blues on Inexpensive Ways To Reduce Computer Screen Blues? · · Score: 1

    Stop using Windows. That's bound to get rid of a lot of blue screens.

  9. Re:hmm on Peep: The Network Auralizer · · Score: 1

    I HATE POPUPS!

  10. (OT) While on the math subject... on Pi: It Just Keeps On Going · · Score: 1

    I remember a math site on here that proved formulas such as 0=1. It was in someone's sig. If anyone knows of it can you post or email. I believe it was called "Math Tricks That Will Stump High School Teachers" or something to that effect

  11. I don't get it on Cheap, Paper RF ID Tags To Replace Barcodes? · · Score: 1

    Isn't a barcode just like a graphic that was printed? In the article it mentions it as a chip. Can anyone explain?

  12. Re:How to Get 0\/\//\/3D Fast on Desperately Seeking Secure and Reliable Email? · · Score: 1

    And since obtaining root once you have a local login is trivial

    It is? Isn't this what us slashdotters use to prove supremacy to windows? Yes I do have nix experience, I just think trivial is a bit overexaggerating on a secure system. IE not out of box Red Hat.

  13. Re:hypocrites on Wine Runs Word 2000 And Excel 2000 · · Score: 1

    Your comment would be so much better if you had quotes around "perfectly good application". Oh well.

  14. Re:Could Someone "Become You"? on Hong Kong Smart Identity Cards In 2003 · · Score: 1

    Even if you burn off your fingerprints and poke your eyes out, there's still DNA, something that can never be changed, and that's the beauty of biometrics. :)

    Just talk on the cell phone a lot.

  15. Re:Algernon on Online 'Sand Mouse' Tests Neurobiologists · · Score: 1

    I had to read this in grade 10. I actually wasn't dissapointed by it. Wasn't it also titled Charly?

  16. Is ... on Nintendo Unveils GAMECUBE At Spaceworld 2000 · · Score: 1

    the CUBE the same as Dolphin?

  17. Re:Seriously on IT Olympics · · Score: 1

    That'd be a pretty fucked up national anthem.

    100101100011100111011

  18. Re:DoS from slashdot on Kuro5hin Returns · · Score: 1

    That will do really well. Considering K5 probably has loads of traffic coming in on eht0.

  19. Re:clean, continuous power on Get Off The Grid: GE Announces Home Fuel Cells · · Score: 1

    It could drain into one of dem sewer vents. You know like rainwater does? Let the city workers deal with the ice :)

  20. Re:usenet search - (offtopic?) on Google Propping Up Yahoo In Search Results? · · Score: 1

    For that sort of data, all you need is a very fast text search. You mean like grep? :)

  21. Link on How Do Linux and Windows 2000 Compare? · · Score: 1

    Or click here to avoid having to copy and paste.

  22. Re:You should drag it out anyway on MySQL Developer Contests PostgreSQL Benchmarks · · Score: 1

    So postgres isn't an ACID database. More like ACI.

  23. When did Ask Slashdot become... on Is There Demand For A Better Usenet Search Engine? · · Score: 1

    a market research tool? The slashdot users ideas are being exploited for the commercial benefit of others. And we don't even get the free food/coffee that is at most focus groups.

  24. Re:names (OT: nitpick) on FSF Proposes .gnu TLD To ICANN · · Score: 1

    Uhm...

    You are assuming three letter TLDs. Add another letter and you have to account for another x number of domains. So it is possible to have 2000000000 TLD names but not likely.

    Also what about digits. that makes it 36 characters. I believe there are already .666 or other numberic TLDs.

  25. Re:IPv6 Resources on IPv6 Ready For A Spin · · Score: 1

    This still doesn't quite make sense (if IPv6 uses byte.byte.byte.byte.byte.byte naming). If so then theoretically you would have 2^48 possible ips (256*256*256*256*256*256). So how can you get more? Different subnets. This concept is quite over my head :)
