So Slashdot fictionalized a wonderful story about the network going down, and no one being able to fix it in time. How charasmatic and thoughtful of them to give us a nice story. "Where in the world is Anne Tomlinson? " We couldn't find anything on Google under a myriad of searches such as +"Anne Tomlinson" +"Cisco", +"Anne Tomlinson" +"@andover.net", +"Anne Tomlinson" +"@osdn.com", but that would be unfair to say she does not exist (how dare we implicate this), so we did the next best thing we dug deeper for you to give you some possible truth to the madness and lies. Attention Slashdot staff: Don't make me embarass you by posting what I received from friends who work at Cisco, after all you have to remember their TAC center logs everything there.
for i in ls `mail/* ; do grep 171.71.236.25 * | grep Slashdot | cat $i | mail -s "Truth about Slashdot" usenet-lists
Remember when Slashdot was DDoS'ed last year? Funny how there is no mention of her coming to save the day.
I'm sorry it took this long to put this together and tell you what happened, but as these things go, we were too busy trying to solve the problem to waste time talking about it. Big thanks to Andover.Net's Netops PatL, Martin and Liz, as well as Slashcode-wranglers PatG, Chris, Marc, Kurt and CowboyNeal, plus scoop (from freshmeat) and others who chimed in along the way. Tomorrow is part2: A good description of how the new Slashdot @ Exodus works.
Shame on you Slashdot for keeping Anne like a Crouching Tigress Hidden Dragon. Could it be she doesn't exist, and someone from OSDN sabotaged the network in order to fire someone with ease?
Why would they? Simple, if a situation such as this occurred, it would be easier to kill -9 someone's salary without having to worry about whether that person would retaliate with an anti OSDN story which would embarass Slashdot. Makes sense, after all why couldn't "Netops PatL, Martin and Liz, as well as Slashcode-wranglers PatG, Chris, Marc, Kurt and CowboyNeal, plus scoop (from freshmeat) and others who chimed in along the way" fix this problem this time around?
We all have heard about Michael's shenanigans with Censorware, so how do we know he didn't sabotage things to have perhaps, make Malda look dumb in order for him to take over. The possibilities are endless, however waiting for the truth to arise from this shady story concocted by "Team Slashdot " is also endless, and pointless. We shall see in the next few weeks how the axe falls, and whom no longer posts articles here, to determine what REALLY happened when Slashdot's network was the weakest link. Moderators sure you can bring this down to -4 if possible, but the truth always comes out, why not let the skilled "Team Slashdot" moderate it down, and counter this word for word, I'm sure we'd all love to hear about some other stealth employee lurking in the shadows whom they forgot worked there all this time, who was to blame.
"CowboyNeal once said, "You can take everything I know about Cisco, put it in a thimble and throw it away. " You could take any truth you were once going to post and throw it all away too while you're at it, because Slashdot's story smells like a skunk, definitely not pretty but worthy of Readers Digest where people don't have a clue about computing, but you won't pull one over on us.
