  1. Re:Washington DC Gun Violence on Gun Sales Halted By FBI Computer Glitch · · Score: 1
    You simply cannot have a little gunfree oasis surrounded by a country where guns are commonplace. It simply won't work.

  2. Re:As if the Brady Law Matters... on Gun Sales Halted By FBI Computer Glitch · · Score: 1

    Nice try, but your local District Attorney cannot prosecute for someone for a Federal crime. That's what Janet Reno's Minions are for...

  3. Re:BSD Differences on IPv6 Over OpenBSD · · Score: 2
    I finally understood that, although it was geeky and fun, having six OS's on the same machine was a rather pointless waste of disk space...

    Yes, it is much better to have six different machines...

  4. Re:Impeach the Bastards on Drug Information Censorship Bill To Be Voted On · · Score: 1

    Why can't we impeach these idiots for violating their oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States"? If they don't like something in the Constitution, they should try to amend it, not introduce unconstitutional bills.

    Because the "Oath" is nothing more than a promise. And we all know what those are worth. Too bad the only real solution to this is an educated elotorate...
  5. Huh? on The Dual 1GHz Pentium III Myth · · Score: 1
    From the Article

    Furthermore, most dual CPU motherboards are used in workstation or server configurations, which would make meeting these temperature requirements an absolute necessity. Instability or system crashes are not an option in these configurations.

    When is a system crash ever an option?

    Needless to say I dont bother with you motorcycle people. :p

    As well you should.

    Bwah.. Those 'Stickered Up Civics' Annoy the crap out of me.

    You and every other human on the road.

    Just let me start by saying only one euro has taken my car ;-) And.. It was a Blue Acura Integra and uhm.. Whatever he had in that thing it was so freaking fast 0-60 In VERY short order. Under 5.8 Seconds because thats what my car has been timed at.

    There has yet to be any four wheeled vehicle that has ever taken me on my ZX

    Laffs, Anyways I just leave most of them slack jawed because my car looks like a regular beat up 1990 Mustang LX five oh.

    It's even more fun when they don't understand the magic of 'Power to Weight Ratios'...

    Editor's Note: No, the above link isn't a pic me, but the bike is just like mine.

  9. Re:Glass Platters are strong but they are liquid! on IBM 75G Hard Drive Ready · · Score: 1
    Glass is a viscous liquid after all - 400 year old glass windows are measurably thicker at the bottom than at the top because of this flow. If you consider that the centripetal force required to keep the disc together is much higher than gravity, I wonder how long it would take for the glass to flow towards the outside of the disc.

    A Very Long Time(tm).

  10. Intellectual Property? on Who Owns College Students' Notes? · · Score: 1

    Since when was *anything* you were taught in any school not "common knowledge"? How can this be considered IP?

    If this was about research related materials they might have a point. But then again, if it is research, it will likely be published in some dusty old academic journal anyway.
