  1. idea on An In-Depth Look At Game Piracy · · Score: -1

    I only use linux. Now I can't pirate games anymore

  2. confused on SoHo NAS With Good Network Throughput? · · Score: -1

    I don't even see why there is a discussion going on here. Seriously, nothing could possibly be easier than getting an old box, installing a netinstall cd of debian http://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/ setting up a raid1 or 5 during the installation. Once it is installed and reboots (10 minutes), then use aptitude to install your NAS stuff, either samba or nfs. Very easy. It gets tricker to have different levels of users with different permissions but it can be done, the tutorials are out there. I run a min install of debian on everything I have. No I have never done a NAS solution but I saw a guy do it once on a movie

    Beats the heck out of a cheesy slow $300+ embeded solution.

  3. Re:And this is news because? on Barack Obama Is One Step Closer To Being President · · Score: -1

    I agree. Because the most important part of a president is whether he uses an ipod or zune or whether he will run broadband lines into small rural towns (lol bridge to no where anyone?)

  4. idea on FTC Kills Scareware Scam That Duped Over 1M Users · · Score: -1

    debian.org

    Well for one, "THIS" hasn't be proven yet.

    Possibly, My friend is the only one out of a family of 4 to not suffer from cold sores

  7. Re:last sentence on The Myth of Upgrade Inevitability Is Dead · · Score: -1

    Hello me mighty windows user. Me stick right hand on mouse and left thumb up butt and click pretty buttons. Me ok with slow network connectivity after a suspend and will gladly wait for the fix to come down the pipe in 7 years. And me very happy that with every service pack me install that the windows now runs slower and slower. Me very happy yes

  8. maybe it is just me on Bush Demands Amnesty for Spying Telecoms · · Score: -1

    I don't know about you guys but I hate terrorists

  9. I hate it on Linux Foundation Says All Major Distros Are IPv6 Compliant · · Score: -1

    IPv6 is hard to understand

  10. It seems on Atheros Hardware Abstraction Layer Source Is Released · · Score: -1

    Is this really a good idea? It seems that Atheros is just dumping this source out onto the web saying "Fix it, we don't want to spend any more of our time on this"

  11. The real question on PC Grand Theft Auto IV Features SecuROM DRM · · Score: -1

    But does this work in linux? (yes I am seriouos)

  12. SUre on Computer For a Child? · · Score: -1

    Sure have at. Just make sure that you get him the linux version. And also make sure to protect him from the evils of the internet, chatrooms, IM, porno sites, pointless forums, etc. A good way to filter the net is to use a firwall distrobution like smoothwall and install squid guard. Someone made an easy install mod for smoothwall over here: http://www.urlfilter.net/

  13. Grid lock? on FAA Greenlights Satellite-Based Air Traffic Control System · · Score: -1

    Gridlock in the air, grid lock on the ground, but what about possible grid lock in the satellite orbits? When are those things going to start crashing into one another? I know there is an awful lot of them up there....

  14. hmm on Triple-Engine Browser Released As Alpha · · Score: -1

    What a great idea. Next up, a C compiler that compiles in all 3 versions of C

  15. dsfa on Lenovo Service Disables Laptops With a Text Message · · Score: -1

    Powered by Microsoft

  16. stupid on MSI Wind U100, Overclocked With Liquid Nitrogen · · Score: 0, Interesting

    absolutly worthless. They couldn't even get a 1ghz overclock on that think with liquid nitrogen? Remember those amd thunderbird cpus a few years ago that could overclock 1ghz+ over the stock speed and only using air cooling?

  17. because on How About an iPhone OS Or Android-Based Netbook? · · Score: -1

    because a minimum install of debian testing works better.

  18. Re:FUCK MICROSOFT! on Silverlight On the Way To Linux · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Talking about capitalism and having to work -1 for you

  19. heh on Boeing 747 Modified To Act As Infrared Telescope · · Score: -1

    Sofia was one of the first aircraft I got to work on when I was employed by L3 in Waco, TX back in 2005. They started working on it back in 1994. Talk about delays...

    On the sheetmetal side of things I was really not impressed at all. Horrible supervisors and everything mismanaged. ANd there really was not place to put that plane. It was always getting moved from hanger to hanger every few months. Which lead to all of the parts getting misplaced and lost.

    A whole crew of mechanics would spend several days a month just walking around from hanger to hanger looking for missing parts. But yea the telescope it pretty cool at least.

  20. cool on German Doctor Cures an HIV Patient With a Bone Marrow Transplant · · Score: -1

    now he can get back to having sex with strangers again

  21. Re:Regedit Vs. /some/obscure/directory.conf on Creative GPLs X-Fi Sound Card Driver Code · · Score: -1

    You are freaking insane dude. I highly disagree

  22. Re:Conservative moralists vs. Fox?!? on Supreme Court To Rule On TV Censorship · · Score: -1

    Heh, the democrat mccain...I totally agree. This election was a joke.

  23. Re:Well "Works With Linux" is a feature to me on Asus To Phase Out Sub-10" Eee PCs · · Score: -1

    Ubuntu and derivatives are bloated slow crap http://christi.ath.cx/ubuntu_vs_debian.html You can't tell me that a 500mb minimum install of debian with kde/gnome/what ever is going to be slow. I agree, a fresh install of xp with all services turned off is pretty perky. But come back in 6 months (if it is even still booting) and see how perky it is. Plus you can't buy XP any more. Which means you probably installed a highly illegal copy on that box. So here, stick some vista on it and blow it out your ass.

  24. Re:Obama on Low-Income Users Latch On To iPhone · · Score: -1

    No I was on welfare that whole year and didn't work.
