An anonymous reader writes "With a press release Mandrakesoft has announced the acquisition of Conectiva. 'Mandrakesoft, the number one European Linux company, today announced a definitive agreement to acquire Conectiva, the number one Linux company in Brazil and Latin America. This acquisition is expected to increase significantly Mandrakesoft's size and R&D capabilities.'"

This is a dupe

Before we go off and slam the editors for a truly horrible week, maybe we should reflect on ourselves. I mean, who is really so blind that the same stories keep getting submitted?? People, check the damn site before rushing to submit a story! You're not planting a flag and won't go into the history books just for getting a story submission on /.

Plagerism!!!

That was My post 11767258 [slashdot.org] in the original story.

CowboyNeal... why even have the email link?

[powerlinekid]

For the first time ever I emailed that this was a dupe to the editors before it was put on the front page.

I even linked to the story and mentioned it was on the frontpage.

So now we know they not only don't read their site, but they don't read email about their site. Which leads to the question of... what do you actually do? You don't edit. You submit anything Roland whatever posts. You post shit that has already been posted. You let Michael post amaingly misleading items.

Bah I'm done. Well heres one less subscriber...

So many dupes lately...

Is somebody resubmitting every story that comes up on the front page? A simple article URL search would eliminate 99% of these dupes.

And they want me to subscribe to this shit? Hah!
