  1. Re:Who's with me... on KDE And Gnome Cooperate On Interface Guidelines · · Score: 1

    Oh I know what you mean. It's SO hard.

    To be honest, getting this comment posting program to display the tags was actually kind of a pain.

  2. Redundant Frozen Joke on NASA Thaws Out 'Teacher in Space' Program · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I don't think that the Teacher In Space program was so much "Frozen" as it was "Burnt to a Crisp".

    Incredible Kaleidescope art! I've seen one in a gallery. Mind blowing.

  9. Hmm on Andy Grove Says End Of Moore's Law At Hand · · Score: 2

    so moores law applies to moores law? every 5 years the law itself is challenged... ironic.


    Hmmm....

    Normally I'm a big fan of recursive ideas, but that one doesn't really do it for me. And I can't say I really see the irony there.

    The observation made in 1965 by Gordon Moore, co-founder of Intel, that the number of transistors per square inch on integrated circuits had doubled every year since the integrated circuit was invented. Moore predicted that this trend would continue for the foreseeable future. In subsequent years, the pace slowed down a bit, but data density has doubled approximately every 18 months, and this is the current definition of Moore's Law, which Moore himself has blessed. Most experts, including Moore himself, expect Moore's Law to hold for at least another two decades.
    -Wikipedia


    Nevertheless,here is my recursive version:


    The observation made in 2002 by Hell O'World, ruler of universe, that the number of Moore's Law's per year had doubled every year since Moore's Law's was invented. H O'W predicted that this trend would continue for the foreseeable future. In subsequent years, the pace slowed down a bit, but Moore's Laws have doubled approximately every 18 months, and this is the current definition of H O'W's Moore's Law, which H O'W himself has blessed. Most experts, including H O'W himself, expect H O'W's Moore's Law to hold for at least another two decades.

  13. That's great for Slashdot geeks... on What Software Do Cable Installers Place on Your PC? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    But what about the mortals? 99% of this monopolistic company's customers have this crap installed on their computer, didn't ask for it, didn't agree to it, and don't even know it's there! Doesn't that strike you as wrong? Perhaps even evil? Laws are not keeping up with technology, and the inherent evil of capitalism is driving us into a dangerous situation. These companies justify their actions based just on maximizing profits for their shareholders. They don't care what petty moral problems this imposes.

  14. Re:Read the Illegal Art EULAs then on First Worm with a EULA? · · Score: 5, Funny

  15. And I Predicted It! on Cringley Asking for 12 Month Predictions · · Score: 5, Funny

    Here's how I responded to The /. artice about the Cringely preditions last year:

    Slashdot will link to every article written by Bob Cringely in 2002. Bob Cringely will start writing for Slashdot, under a level two pseudonym. This post will receive a +5 funny.


    Sadly, I was wrong about the third prediction. The second? Hard to say.

  17. I have! on Voluntary Sponsorship of Linux? · · Score: 3, Funny

    "Have any Slashdot readers ever done any voluntary sponsorship of Linux?"
    I like to go around town with spraypaint and write EAT MORE LINUX on peoples cars. Then I lie in the gutter and twitch, and yell at people about how stupid they are for supporting the Evil M$ Empire.

  18. Re:A first Salon-quoting-Slashdot-posts? not. on Mozilla Rising ... As A Platform · · Score: 2

    You are right that the one I found does not actually have a link, but it has more than the word Slashdot, it has a quote. And I only spent about a minute looking for counter-examples to find that one.

  19. A first Salon-quoting-Slashdot-posts? not. on Mozilla Rising ... As A Platform · · Score: 2

    Just look up the word "Slashdot" on Salon. Hundreds of references... Randomly picking one I find:
    The CD player, the Slashdotter wrote, displayed "a playing time of 100 minutes, 30 seconds -- not! ... So the trick seems to be that the playing time of 100:30 is interpreted as 00:30."

  20. There's your problem right there on Anti-Glare Computer Screens That Work in Sunlight? · · Score: 2

    Sunlight? Send those coders back to their caves! Or at least set up little tents for them. Too much light may interfere with their monitor tans.
