The English language is the most masterful for manipulating the thought process.
What's illegal for the people should be illegal for the government of the people.
It doesn't work that way does it?
I bet it could be even faster if you run it from a console and skip that pesky startx command too. Look I'm not knocking the guy's efforts. But who are ya gonna believe? Me or some random Slashdot article?
Computers are good enough!???
Warranties have dropped to nothing, people are realizing that the stuff you buy at the big box store is absolute garbage.
Manufacturers need to resupply the shelves with stuff that is worth buying.
The average PC user may be pretty dumb.
The average consumer is really, really smart. Oh and having a freakin job may help.
Most species becomes space faring, the smart ones like Cro-Magnon and Neanderthal leave as soon as they can.
The reason we don't hear from anyone else is because they put up warning signs.
You don't need fancy theories to explain why every other object in the universe is fleeing from us.
I like your spirit, but something tells me your crop yield will be 60% less and you'll starve before winter hits.
There is a reason fossil fuel is popular. The U.S spent the last 50 years teaching the 3rd world how to grow food, but now we have people like you who want to heat their house by burning cow dung.
good luck.
Yet every person who has ever breathed has wondered this thought. Because intuitively, we know there was something before time.
Being trapped in time is a dilemma or a gift. In a few more millenia, I think we'll be closer to the answer.
Stephen Hawkings trick question about what is north of the north pole is just clever misdirection. Because that is not the question at all. But Stephen is very clever, which is why he can totally reverse his opinions on the way the universe work every 20 years, and still be proclaimed the smartest guy in the room. By morons.
When we can stop loading the deck by dividing by zero, thinking of infinity as a real number, and believing in things like a singularity, we are going to be really smart.
Science is just religion without the costumes.
The thing i like most about Slashdot, is the easy access to totally unqualified opinions, whose distribution around the correct answer is an inverted bell curve.
See what I mean about fear being the enemy of good decision making?
You give Microsoft much more credit than they deserve. If you think the Microsoft sneezes without checking with their EU lawyers first, you are just another conspiracy wingnut.
You should read John's account of racing Peter to the tomb, and handily beating him there, only to wait outside and wait for "the boss" to enter first. (This wouldn't be my sole justification, but it's a good start to slow down an intellectual like you and get you to reason a little bit.)
You should also do a little studying. Catholic Tradition often seems odd to those outside the Catholic Church. We question it ourselves at first, only years later, when the pieces of the puzzle start to add up and make even more sense that way, are we resolved. Peter being the boss didn't make him holier than anyone else, just like Matthew being the purser, didn't make him richer than anyone else.
If you take everything from a book, without context, you're probably gonna get a few things wrong.
It's like that 6,000 year thing only idiots argue about, 'cause neither side knows what they are talking about.
because apple will ultimately rip support for snow leopard away from you, while at the same time breaking your applications. Then insist you should buy a new computer.
OS X is like leasing a car vs. owning one. It's not right or wrong for the right people.
You're too smart for OS X. You're not geeky enough for Linux.
Windows is just right for you. Be smart enough to ignore the lunkheads that can't figure out how to 7ize windows 8. It will make upgrading to Windows 9 that much easier.
You can only hope that Microsoft doesn't totally screw up their cloud initiative. They've had plenty of time to learn from others, and they should be ready to roll. Office 365 is actually not as bad as I thought it would be.
p.s. keep your old Linux box plugged in just in case. You will need it sooner or later.

Well, except for that cosmological constant fraud. - that part was impossible. But the Slashdotters of the day bought into it, because, well, because they didn't understand what he was saying anyway, and the rest of it sounded good enough.

Seriously, you just made the list. In an earlier time this might have been included in HHGTG.
Oh I forgot to mention, they probably emulate their asshole hero Linus Torvolds who take great care in treating people like shit and going off on tirades.
I've saved up an ass kicking for that jackass too.
The Market figured it out for you NOK up 18%.
Windows phone is going to be around for awhile and probably make most AC's of this Slashdot crowd very angry.
Don't ask me why, I used to like Linux and the techy things you can do with it and learn from it. But while compiling my first redhat kernel 2.2.5-15 was fun so many years ago, The number of asshole "linux genious's" with chips on their shoulders has become too much to wade through.
But like I said most of them are AC's. If I they ever tried this crap on me in real life, it would end badly for them.

I wonder if they are doing this for

Nokia's doing it to shore up the balance sheet for next quarter..
It's working. Stock up 5% today in a down market.
What kills me is I wasted the whole day trading, and come over to Slashdot for a break and i get this crap.
Slashdot has pretty much jumped the shark.
You have to admit that the transition from PowerPC to Intel was much smoother. I believe a lot had to do with a much more robust Mac OS under the hood

You mean Microsoft regularly fires people for NOT doing it?
These are two words that don't go together. Not since day 1. Not now. Not ever.

This is one reason we insist you use CAR analogies on Slashdot.
