    And barring the mods to edit may help even more I tell you!

  2. Re:What do you know on The Register Exposes More Wikipedia Abuse · · Score: 1

    Certain high level wikipedia editors have the ability to remove such a permanent link from the database, for reference check out Jimbo's birthday on wikitruth. http://wikitruth.info/index.php?title=Jimbo's_birthday

    I was rolling around reading some of the dispute resolutions. Generally just called for permabans for petty garbage and other things. Kind of hard to get around an injustice like that.

    Stalkers when they find information about wikipedia users, but what does that make wikipedia users that find information about wikipedia subjects.

    And stuff like fiber and sugar alcohol gets labeled on the packaging for what it is. Quit splitting hairs.

    You want a tablet, not the readers. Refresh rate would be too slow for real note taking.

    Why hes talking about the International Gold Police who set the price of gold and insure that no-one mines and sells gold for less than that price. They're on Wikipedia, or will be in a second.

  13. Re:I agree its wrong on Wi-Fi Piggybacking Widespread · · Score: 1

    If they're buying an AP it comes with instructions on how to use it. I don't find ignorance to be an excuse when the information is handy, but some marketing dogs attempt to make things seem simpler than they are. My AP is open for folks who want to use it, if I wanted it to be different, I'd throw up WPA.

    You prove my point ace, I consider myself a progressive, I didn't make empty comments about your bowels or mode of death or whatever. You're jumping into that monkey mentality like the labels mean something other than a guideline for a system of ideas, like we're in different camps or some such nonsense. What you should be railing against, is internet idiots, not progressives. That is unless you're just looking for a straw man. Whatever floats your boat.

  20. Re:lol dollars on Wal-Mart's $200 Linux PC Sells Out · · Score: 1

    Hey, I hate it myself, but not as a work user. I started using the free version of StarOffice when I was a sophomore high school, before it became OpenOffice.org because I was freakin' poor and torrents didn't make piracy easy in the late 90's, early 2000's. As a student we don't really have the time to customize the UI of the program as we don't have a particular workstation that only we use. Now, it may be the case that I'm just unfamiliar with the UI or it may be the case that even if I knew it I'd hate it. But down to the bones, I hate the thing and can't be productive on it, it just keeps wanting to autocorrect and autoformat crap and clutter me with toolbars.

    Who knows, maybe its a function of our monkey brain that we start seeing political opponents on the net as the same person. And then we start slinging feces.
