  1. Re:This couldn't have happened with Linux... on The 25-Year-Old BSD Bug · · Score: 1

    In other news, SCO stock has been sitting at $0.10 for days with minimal volume.

  2. Re:ummm on BioShock Movie To Be Made By Universal · · Score: 4, Funny

    ...in the role of a Little Sister.

    He pulls off effeminate pretty well.

  3. Re:Does a bullet make a sonic boom? on NASA Wants to Take the Blast Out of Sonic Booms · · Score: 1

    Yes, but only with higher-powered ones that are supersonic. Most pistol rounds are subsonic.

    With a high-powered rifle like my K31, you get a bang from the burning gunpowder, and another from the bullet. A silencer (more accurately a suppressor) can only help with the gunpowder bang.

  4. Re:Would be nice if they got the facts right on NASA Wants to Take the Blast Out of Sonic Booms · · Score: 1

    Why are we using those ridiculous units, anyhow? Nothing wrong with kilopascals.

  5. Re:Lot easier than it sounds on NASA Wants to Take the Blast Out of Sonic Booms · · Score: 1

    That would require the passengers to wear pressure suits, not so?

  6. Re:The Right Stuff on NASA Wants to Take the Blast Out of Sonic Booms · · Score: 1

    Except for the increased fuel usage. Bit of a concern these days.

  7. It /did/ have a good S/N ratio on The Future of Subversion · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Until the usual suspects post tired jokes or stupid questions.

    Well done.

  8. Re:Here's your warning: on London Lawyers Demand £600 For One Game · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Would the defendant admit wrongdoing, though?

  9. Re:Great on Make Your Own Fonts, In a Web Browser · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Yes, as if MySpace wasn't ugly enough!

  10. Re:This gives new meaning to the phrase... on San Diego GOP Chairman Alleged To Be a Fairlight Co-Founder · · Score: 1

    Don't. Do. That.

    {shudder}

  11. Jerry has an irrational fear on Why Yahoo Turned Microsoft Down · · Score: 5, Funny

    of chairs.

  12. undelete on How To Move Your Linux Systems To ext4 · · Score: 4, Informative

    Oh, please. ext2 had "undelete" capability, just as it had filesystem compression capability. Neither were ever implemented.

  13. Re:Is there a difference on ACLU Warns of Next Pass At Telecom Immunity · · Score: 1

    You left out one critical bit: Dems are generally left-of-center for the United States and the GOP right-of-center for the United States.

    I'm told that Europeans think of Dems as being rather conservative. They're generally horrified by the Republicans.

  14. Re:But how do you feel about the ACLU? on ACLU Warns of Next Pass At Telecom Immunity · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    That's okay. If this was a wingnut site, we'd be getting cracks about the "Anti-Christian Liberal Union".

  15. Re:waste of money on Hands-On With SteelSeries Ikari Mouse and New 7G Gaming Keyboard · · Score: 1

    It's not too much masturbating until you bleed.

  16. Re:You Fail the Google on Taser International Wins Lawsuit to Change Cause of Death · · Score: 1

    I simply can't be bothered. GP made a claim, so he needs to provide examples instead of saying that he remembers things.

  17. Mullet on MacGyver Film In the Works? · · Score: 1

    Another serious question: will whomever plays MacGuyver have the correct mullet haircut?

  18. {citation needed} on Taser International Wins Lawsuit to Change Cause of Death · · Score: 1

    Bullshit unless you can provide examples.

  19. Re:So tell me... on Slackware 12.1 Released · · Score: 4, Informative

    Patrick (the maintainer) is a SubGenius.

  20. Re:SuddenOutbreakOfMoralSense on AT&T Accidentally Provides Free Wi-Fi To All · · Score: 1

    No worries. AT&T is making up what it loses from this by sharing all its customers' information with the NSA.

  21. Obligatory "Netcraft Confirms It" post on OpenBSD 4.3 Released · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Just so that's out of the way.

  22. Re:!= Gobuntu? on FSF-Approved gNewSense 2.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Yeah! Gobuntu was created solely to please the Free Software people who created gNewSense.

    Not surprisingly, it's hard to please a zealot.

  23. Re:That's why Open-Source fails on the desktop on Pidgin Controversy Triggers Fork · · Score: 1

    Posted as AC because of Linux and OSS zealots. Posting as AC because you're afraid to face the consequences of your speech, you mean. Coward.
  24. Re:Criminal? on Whitehouse Emails Were Lost Due to "Upgrade" · · Score: 1

    HA HA HA. There are quite enough Republicans in Congress to prevent that from happening.

    Even if the Dems had a 2/3 majority, I'd bet that enough of those spineless losers would go along with the Republicans for various reasons.

  25. Re:If you saw your friend again on Post-Suicide Account Cracking? · · Score: 5, Funny

    If he saw his friend again, he'd be more worried about protecting his braiiiins.
