Linux For Supervillains

computernut writes "Supervillains seem to like Linux. Take a peek at a cool Shockwave Animation on why they use it." Cute little animation. I think we might have shown it here before, but hey it's Sunday, and August which means this is the closest thing to news we might have all day.

Uh, what cave have you been living in? Or are you using three-year-old linux to view it?

I watched it in FC4 with no problems...

Farking troll...

Re:Um, how come

[belg4mit]

How is the death of a newsman relevant? Unless of
course it's Ruper Murdoch. It's not. Heck, I was
watching TV when it was announced and was rather put-off by the damn documentary they launch into. It seemed rather self-serving and disingenious to have something "already ready already".

Re:Linux versus Windows

[SharpFang]

Real BSODs, in my experience, tend to be driver and hardware related.
Yes.
Like, I/O driver.
For CD-ROM, reading a scratched disk.
Or Floppy.
Or audio. AC97 codec dying because there was too much disk activity and it couldn't fill audio buffer for too long.
Or the USB drive. Somewhere during the transfer the plug went loose and you see blue screen of death, "Please insert disk into drive G:".
Or the network went down and an app dies because it can't "call home".
Or the gfx card driver fails to reset after quitting a game and you're stuck with no video, have to reboot because you don't see a thing.

Well, most software problems are only computer related too.

"So it's August. Take a breather. "

Yup.

Bush is.

Again.

It's September I'm worried about.

Especially since the Net rumor is all military leaves have been canceled for September through December.
