god i hate windows... stupid school computers... while i was typing, the side of my palm ran into the extended key that makes the right-click menu come up... musta hit an 'r', cause the page reloaded halfway thru the message... *grumbles*
anyways, i don't think that there really is any new hardware... the people at /. are just making it up... i don't feel a difference... neither do a lot of people... therefore, there was no upgrade, the staff at /. are trying to dupe us...
which makes me wonder what the real hardware is... 50 beowulfed palms? it'd explain how slow the slashcode gets updated... (coding in graffiti can't be fun...)
maybe i should do that at my site, if anyone ever complains about speed... tell them that i'm working on it, and a month later, take the site down for a day, and say that i've upgraded the hardware... they'll think its faster (maybe i'll take my d.net client down for a day... tho its pretty good at staying out of the way...), so they'll be happy, and my pocketbook'll be happy... well, no, that's not true... my pocketbook is NEVER happy... happier, i guess... i actually don't think that /. gets hit as much as people say... i don't think any of you exist, actually... well, maybe one or two... no trolls ever go to slashdot... there's just a script that writes troll posts... and another one that moderates the other script's postings down... how else would trolls get first posts? maybe i'm a script... i'm confused...
