    Graphics languages in Linux? Blasphemy! Everyone knows that there is only a command line!

    I suppose you've never seen any evidence of a woman's pupils and/or vagina dilating then.

  4. Re:Wordpress has the option on Are Long URLs Wasting Bandwidth? · · Score: 1

    On something like .../1/edit/blah
    could be .../?page=1&action=edit&blah=blah
    Since only the /1/edit/blah is sent between the computer and server, the reduction of having /?page= + &action= + &blah= is a slight save in bandwidth...(assumption)

    Or what about this:

    That 30 second preview on Wikipedia. Say there are websites that have this 30 second preview at different parts of the song...you find one at the beginning, one that is 30 seconds into the song, etc..until you have the entire song.

    Remember, you've just been using the 30 second preview from various websites, absolutely `legal`...or is it? (oh yeah. 30 seconds was the time it took me to think of this crappy post)

    Sure, Linux file systems don't need defragmentation, but there are a hell of a lot of distributions to choose from.

    Speaking of terrorists using an EMP to attack *somewhere* in 2009 reminds me of Dark Angel.


    I think secretly I want it to be true....no wait, not secretly, I just want that EMP to happen -- and the kids to escape.
