  1. Re:Do we need the anti-smoking jab on A Geek Funeral · · Score: 5, Funny

    Homicide is illegal in most countries.

    We should legalize it, tax it, and spend all the money earned towards an anti-homicide campaign.

  2. Re:Diversify! on A Secure OS For the Dalai Lama? · · Score: 1

    Open Solaris isn't mature as a desktop OS, it doesn't pop into everybody's mind immediately. If it was as widely used as Linux, or had the proven track record of OpentBSD, it might have been mentioned. For now it's relegated to relative obscurity. Hopefully this will change in the next few years, it's always good to have a little more competition.

    The commuter rail in Massachusetts has wifi, and is one reason my brother is moving to Boston. An hour of telecommuting before you get to work every day can be a huge draw for people.

    Megabus can be as cheap as a dollar, and I find it's usually 7-9 dollars if you get it a week in advance. It goes to Hartford too, which is convenient (at least for me). Their buses also have free wifi.

    Wow. Unless you're referring to unprescribed prescription drugs, then your dealer really has it together. Or he is out of his mind.

    Thanks for letting us know that you don't watch TV. I can sleep well knowing you have nothing to contribute to the discussion. I would appreciate it if you made a post in every story on a subject you have limited knowledge of, so that I don't get too excited about your insight.

    Why is this modded insightful? Sheep aren't even considered citizens. They don't wear pants. They can't carry money. Maybe they could barter with wool if we weren't shearing them all the goddamn time. I don't even think sheep are playable characters in the Sims, what business would they have playing it?

    Do you enjoy typing all those HTML tags? Usually there's the one space after a period group and the two spaces after a period group. You take it to a whole new level.

    I bet you even consider yourself an audiophile. Buy a good pair of speakers, get your thousand dollar cable, still a terrible sound? You didn't buy the most important part. While their knobs have been discontinued; it appears that Arbelos now sells similar pieces of wood for the same price as the ever important Wood Lenses!

  17. Re:It's a Peter Molyneaux game on Fable II Previews, Molyneux Opinions · · Score: 1

    It was too short, it was too easy. It wasn't really a good RPG. It was more adventure RPG like Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time (Not that Zelda wasn't amazing). The whole thing kinda felt like it was just filled with cheap novelties, like having sex with villagers and getting drunk. There should have been more focus on the main storyline, and the battle engine.

  18. Re:grow pot? on Successful Moonlighting For Geeks? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and you won't even get questioned by the neighbors (it's a member of the sage family). They're beginning to outlaw or restrict its sale in many states, so get in while it's still legal.

    Like what, am I suppose [sic] to be trying to ignite some giant flamewar just by asking for a distro suggestion?

    We can tell you're new to the scene ;). But ignoring that, as you've said yourself it'd be flamebait, not troll. Jeez, even the mod-criticizers need a lesson.

  23. Re:Then YouTube isn't browser based either on Carmack Talks Quake Live · · Score: 1

    It's a bit different than that, because it would be inconvenient to only use a standalone flash player to try and find youtube videos. Youtube as a website has a purpose. This is a custom plugin designed solely to play Q3A, which is already very possible without a browser. It's essentially a standalone game presented inside of a browser. It'd be like creating a website with an embedded video linking to your dvd drive, and then watching DVD's in a browser.

  25. Re:Technical Term on Coating a Motherboard In Thermal Resin? · · Score: 1

    Never did I suggest that you know NOTHING about marijuana or vaporizers. I did assume that you were confused as to which type of vaporizer I was referring to, since there are several made solely for the purpose of producing water vapor (humidifiers). That is why I suggested reading the link.
    While you are correct that no vaporizer removes water vapor, it is very possible (and common practice around here) to remove it yourself prior to vaporizing. Yes, it is difficult to remove 100 percent of the water vapor but if necessary you can remove enough so that the remainder is negligible.
