    Except on Star Trek holidays.
  3. Re:what is up with SPACES in the urls at slashdot? on Periodic Table of the Operators · · Score: 1

    Just to clarifiy, it does split long URLS to avoid page horizontal page scrolling. It isn't an issue if the poster actually posts a linke with the URL.

  4. Re:Good on The Good and Bad of Data Collection · · Score: 0

    That explains that smell.

  5. Re:Diversity == Good; Fragmentation == Terrible on Follow Up to "Linux's Achilles Heel" · · Score: 1

    How do you determine age from a UID?

  6. Danger on Stoplights to Mete Out Punishment? · · Score: 1

    If the driver is all ready speeding, what is going to stop him/her from blowing through the red light. Seems like a possibly dangerous way to deal with the problem.

  7. Re:Roll out date? on DARPA Aims to Redo the Internet Protocol · · Score: 1

    I hope you just forgot your sarcasm tag.

  8. Before? on Constructing a Corporate Open Source Policy? · · Score: 1, Funny

    I'm sure several of you have run into this situation before

    Where would a bunch of fifteen year old script kiddies run into something like this?

  9. Re:who cares? on Longhorn Developers @ MSDN · · Score: 1

    I have all the pieces in place, and my ultimate plan here is to switch all our desktops over, once I find something that isn't going to reduce the 'feature set' of our desktops. An upgrade isn't really viable if I have to tell everyone "oh sorry, you can't select printing options when you print anymore, they can only be set in the driver options - which you can't access".

    I'm just totally giving up on windows. It's just not worth the hassle anymore.


    It really doesn't sound like it is Windows that is the hassle.

    GMontag is this you trolling?

  11. Re:this might actually be a good thing on Verisign Gets Out of the Registrar Biz, Keeps .com Registry · · Score: 1

    probably did not expect it to fly as good as they thought it would.

    I had assumed that they probably didn't think it would fly as good as they expected it would. Damn I was close.

    Who cares about the samba. is Brazil's truly great export.

    I think what we all want to know is what the mode income is!

  15. Re:Why do you think Bush gave them tax cuts? on Tech Rich Get Richer · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I think the point of giving the middle and lower-class a larger portion of the tax cuts is the fact that the money they get back could make the difference in sending their children to college, or improving their standard of living.

    The money will most likely make no immediate difference in the lifestyle of the upper-class.

  16. Re:It might actually be nice.... on Microsoft Plans IE Changes Due to Plugin Patent · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Oh shut the fuck up. I hate to tell you this, but the web has evolved past the text sites that you so covet.

  17. Re:That's what standards are for! on Helping the Apple Web Community w/o an Apple Computer? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Where as I agree that standards are great and should always be used, just becaues you page is standard compliant doesn't mean it will render correctly.

    Before you go and tell me that it is the browsers fault, will you go try to explain that to every browser user on the planet so they don't bitch at me?

    This would actually be a good thing, as it would result in him losing to Clinton in 2008.

  21. Worst Invention Ever... on Why Johnny Can't Handwrite · · Score: 1

    It is sad that there is probably an entire industry revolving around those rubber triangles teachers forced kids to put on their pencil so they learned the "proper" way to hold it.

  22. Re:Notes? on What Kind Of Computer To Bring To College? · · Score: 1

    Well I wasn't the top in my class or anything, but had a 3.3 in my major (CS) and a 3.0 overall. I think a lot of people think as long as they take down every word the prof says in class they are learning about it. I found it was always more effective to actually take in what was being said to fully understand it, and not just transcribe it to paper.

  23. Notes? on What Kind Of Computer To Bring To College? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    What is all of this talk of taking notes? I managed to go through four years of college without taking a single note. I stopped buying the books after Freshman year as well (that $400 a semester goes a long way at the on campus bar with $.50 drafts).

  24. Currently Filming on The Hiring, Firing and Re-Hiring of Spider-Man · · Score: 4, Informative

    They are currently filming down near the financial district in Manhattan. From everything I've heard Mr. McGuire is there, so I'm guessing he is in the movie.

  25. Re:Have old bills? on New US $20 bills Released, Colors & Layout Change · · Score: 1

    I doubt that is true. If it is, I'm on the next plane over so I can rip all of the bills into about sixty distinct pieces and trade each in for full face value.
