    Na da ist ja lustig. Sprichst Du wirklich Deutsch oder tust Du nur so?

    Ich finde wir sollten das Beispiel der Slashdot-Editoren befolgen und ab jetzt einfach nur noch in anderen Sprachen als Englisch schreiben. Ich bin sicher der Prozentsatz an mehrsprachigen Slashdot-Besuchern wird unterschätzt... und für die, die wirklich nur Englisch können, gibt es ja noch den Babelfisch, nicht?

    Ich wünsche einen schönen Ersten April!

    Oh wat hebben we het fijn,

  • Ja! Død over den angelsaksiske verden, lad os få nogle flere nordiske sprog. En smart måde at lokalisere Slashdot på, vi snakker bare hvert vores sprog. (This was Danish if you couldn't figure it out).
  • Get a life you stupid little script kiddie! Can't you take a joke? If you've got such a big problem with it, cut and paste it into babelfish and translate it yourself. Don't be lazy.
  • Um... APRIL FOOLS?!?!? or is it that youre just the fool?
  • I hope it's a slow news day. Too bad bablefish doesn't do pig latin.
  • We can have fun once in a while guys but don't ya think you've gone a little overboard in the past few hours? When I want to read the news, I should be able to do it and so should all the other readers. The polls and the funny departments add humor. I think you can pretty safely not try to make people giggle when they read the articles. I know it's 4/01/00 but enough is enough. The news. Now, please.
  • ...is a butt-ugly babelfish traslation, barely understandable in Italian. The English original must be something like that: Ellen Spertus writes, the Computer Museum History Center, situated at the Moffet Campus of Mountain View, is to sponsor a Lecture series denominated: Beowulf-Class PC Clusters:An Historical Perpective, given by Thomas Sterling, who led the team that developed the first Beowulf cluster at NASA, and is co-author of the Beowulf HOWTO. The Lecture is on Tuesday April 13. RSVP whithin April 10. All the Computer Museum History Center comunicates it has to be big [!!!!??? It says so in Italian!]

La conferenza si svolgera` la sera del 13 aprile. E' necessario dare conferma entro il 10 di aprile.

  • Why would you do that in Java OR Perl? I could run this 10 ten times before you rJava shite finishes compiling.

    #include <stdio.h>
    void main () {
    int i;
    for (i = 0, i < 1000, i++) {
    printf ("Oh, get a life.");
    }
    return;

  • Correct -- anyone who tries to compile that without noticing the commas (instead of semicolons )in the for statement will find that out soon enough. ;-D

  • On an ironic note to that criticism, I tried to visit http://kiro5hin.org just then only to find the below error message. I have never seen Slashdot down before. However, I don't want a flame war either cause I'm a supporter of both sites. Competition keeps the quality of all services higher, most Slashdotters seem to know that. So don't wish for the downfall of Slashdot, cause it'll give kiro5hin a reason to slacken off a bit too. The vice versa applies. It's called a free market.

  • OK, guys, what is it, really? Couldn't you have made it more subtile? Couldn't you have allowed images in the posts or something? Maybe you should have ran all the posts through a translation utility and have all our comments in Japaneese too?
    Look at www.google.com, even those goofs have better sence of humor than this poor site.
  • I must say, as Italian-speaking, that the translation made by Babelfish sounds (as usual) a bit funny. I really don't manage to understand some things, even though I'm Italian. But it's OK, glad to see something familiar on ./ . I even didn't notice the first time I was reading it ... :P

  • Unfortunately, Ticalc.org [ticalc.org] thought of it first... May be just a coincedence, but their foriegn language news post were made at midnight GMT, which is a lot earlier than 4:02 AM CST... Not to offend anyone, but that's what I see =)
  • actually Klingon would be pretty cool...
  • I decided it after my my post. but actually it is becoming fun. I actually wanted to do something else now, but I couldn't resist when I saw an answer to my topic. I think I will look for the actual message in the Beowulf posting now.

  • Isn't it refreshing to see the American ethnocentrism expressed so drastically? I don't speak Italian, but at least I could identify the language. Run it through babelfish, it makes a little sense.
    Other than that, I have decided to avoid /. on April 1st....nothing good can come out of this.

    Slashdot's idea of an April Fool's prank is so bad that Anonymous Coward is leaving? I never thought I'd see the day.

    I'm going to miss him... I swear, he posts on every topic on here, and not just once, but like 178 times. Some of his posts are funny, some of them are insightful, but some of them just seem like lame troll attempts. He's kooky in an all-over-the-map kind of way.

    It's one day in a year, people. Let the guys have some fun. Personally, I appreciate it when I see people in public positions act like REAL PEOPLE. A few weeks ago, for instance,. the local newscasters on the ABC affiliate in my area changed the way they report news, ever so slightly, in that they stopped reading straight from the teleprompter and started acting REAL, for once. I actually enjoy watching the news now. Anyone who gets all worked up about a little prank here and there (regardless of whether YOU think it was funny or not) should be taken outside and smacked around a little.

    Keep on "keeping it real," Slashdot. I, and many others like me I'm sure, will keep reading until Slashdot becomes all business, quoting press releases instead of providing personal takes on the news. It's nice to see a group of people that hasn't sold out like that yet.

    The Computer Museum History Center [computerhistory.org], located at Moffett Field in Mountain View, is presenting a talk entitled "Beowulf-Class PC Clusters: An Historical Perspective" [computerhistory.org] given by Thomas Sterling, leader of the NASA team that created the first Beowulf cluster and co-author of How to Build a Beowulf. The talk will take place in the evening of April 13. RSVP [computerhistory.org] by April 10. All of the Computer Museum History Center events that I've been to have been very good.

Parts that positively cannot be assembled in improper order will be.
