  1. Re:Google says otherwise on Judge Backs Amazon, Raps Feds Over Book Records · · Score: 0, Troll

    Goatse.ca!

  2. Re:Mario bros and your mom on Judge Backs Amazon, Raps Feds Over Book Records · · Score: 1

    I am having trouble figuring out if there is an innuendo somewhere in that.

  3. Re:That does it for me... on Firefox Susceptible To QuickTime Security Flaw · · Score: 1

    I don't know... ~12% of the market is still quite a large number of people.

  4. Re:What version of Firefox? Or IE? on Firefox Susceptible To QuickTime Security Flaw · · Score: 1

    This does not happen in IE. And it seems like this problem spans all versions of Firefox that open Quicktime as a separate process rather than as an internal plugin.

    That's odd. It doesn't ask me. Are you using System>>Preferences>>Main Menu?

  6. Re:easier than a book? on Hands-On With The Kindle · · Score: 1

    Well, heavier than a small book. But certainly not heavier than a personal library. You can store more than one book at a time, can't you?

    Right. Everyone knows the correct response is "Google it"! ;)

    That's three times more than are necessary. I enter my password quite often in Ubuntu when doing admin-level adjustments.

    Just in case you'd rather not have a pos for an operating system. I am confident that my OS isn't a POS.

    Can it run Linux?
    I'm serious about this.

  11. Re:32GB is good space for business on Sony's Flash-Based Notebook Reviewed · · Score: 3, Funny

    Wouldn't it make more sense to carry a spare battery? No reason you can't still do that. Besides the fact that you might not be able to afford it after buying the laptop.

    I don't. I use Linux.
    Yes, I know that is a fairly standard answer around here but that doesn't change the fact that it's true.

  13. Re:Call me old fashioned... on Sony's Flash-Based Notebook Reviewed · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I'm really surprised that the laptop industry has gone towards bigger laptops, rather than smaller (but that must be what people want right) I think it is because of the n00b's perception that bigger=more powerful, like how Walmart's Green PC is in a full-sized case when it doesn't need to be.
  14. Re:Field? on Football Field-Sized Kite Powers Latest Freighter · · Score: 1

    Actually, I was making a joke about not knowing what a football is.

    And what is a football?

    What's a football field?

    And the debris from UAV-to-UAV collisions could still be dangerous over metropolitan areas.

  18. Re:"Stern but fair?" on Russian Police Seize Kasparov · · Score: 1

    I doubt that nazis/communists are outright banned here in the US. THey are allowed to hold whatever political viewpoint they want. I just think that most of their preferred policies are illegal.

    I hope you are kidding. If not, your ignorance amazes me.

  20. Online nilkname *is* better on Online Nicknames Google better than Real? · · Score: 1

    I just googled my username. I use this username quite often, too.
    There is only one entry that isn't me. See if you can guess which one it is.

    Touché.

  22. Re:write to congress on Why Microsoft's Zune is Still Failing · · Score: 1

    You just pointed out that it competes with itself. By nature, it is not a mono culture. I hope that Ubuntu does not overwhelm the other distros for this reason.

    I doubt Linux would be seriously damaged if all other OS companies just shriveled up and died.

    Bug fixes might be faster if the bug in question causes a system slowdown (memory leak being the most obvious).
