  1. E is for newbies on Enlightenment 0.15 · · Score: 1

    E, with its eyecandy themes and less useful funcationality is the real desktop for users. It might attract people to Linux/X, but once they've tried it they'll switch to a WM that lets them concentrate on what they need to do. E is lame.

  2. I have the mind of a 4 year old on Enlightenment 0.15 · · Score: 1

    At least the parts I haven't eaten yet

  3. SW/ SP video chokey. on South Park spoof of Star Wars · · Score: 1

    They were fine for me, but I had a T1

  4. xemacs? on Red Hat Backlash? · · Score: 1

    What the hell's wrong with xemacs?

  5. IGNORACE? now who ignant? on Ask Slashdot: Is SMP worth it? · · Score: 1

    Check again Professor Spelling Bee. I didn't spell ignorance, or any other word, wrong. Oh wait, I guess you're probably going by the hillbilly dictionary. Maybe it's time to put yourself out of my misery.

  6. Look at what has happened before! on Space Hotel · · Score: 1

    I've lived in a NASA suttle fuel tank for the last three years. Let me tell you, it's pretty darn cozy. Except for the explosions every time I light my cigarette.

  7. More space junk... on Space Hotel · · Score: 1

    Last, as in not disintegrate into metal shards or last as in not run out of fuel. The gas tank of my '64 Ford falcon lasted about 150 miles, but it's been empty for years and it's still a great home to mice.

  8. Breeding is the most important thing? on Wired on RMS · · Score: 1

    In your religion, did Jesus breed or did he have more important things to do?

  9. X sucks, but it is full screen on Wired on RMS · · Score: 1

    X is full screen, in case you haven't tried it. If you'd like each window to be full screen, well then maximize them. I'd have to say though, I think this is a pretty lame complaint.

  10. NT file sharing has some advantages on Kernel Musings: Unix and NT · · Score: 1

    Hows about I just walk into your office with a new laptop with a "fred" user account on it and login to your machine.

    Uh, you'd have to know fred's password. It's no less secure than having two 'fred' accounts on two different Unix boxes.

  11. Penis Size on Wired on RMS · · Score: 1

    First, I'll bet mine's bigger than yours by a long shot. Second, while there's certainly ego involved here, remember that Linux is named after Linux, while GNU stands for, "GNU's Not Unix."

    At least RMS wasn't egotistical enough to name the movement after himself.

  12. BSD & ftp.cdrom.com on Kernel Musings: Unix and NT · · Score: 1

    You don't need all that much money to have a system that blows the most powerful NT system out of the water. Just look at what BSD does on a daily basis for ftp.cdrom.com and compare that to what NT can do. NT isn't ready for the internet.

  13. ILU is not an object model on QPL 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    ILU is a way of specifiying language neutral interfaces between code written in different languages. It is not an object model, but it could be used to implement one, or at least specify one.

  14. SWIG on QPL 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Ok, I can see your confusion. SWIG was in the title of my message so you thought I was referring to it. I wasn't. I was not claiming SWIG had any ability whatsoever. I have never even used SWIG.

  15. Monsanto==Bad on "Terminator Technology" · · Score: 1

    One thing's for sure, if Monsanto is involved
    they won't be loosing sleep over weather or not
    this is a good thing to do, genetically speaking.

    This is one company that I like to see wiped off
    the face of the earth sooner than Microsoft.

  16. Chill on GIMP Book · · Score: 1

    You've got to chill brother, I haven't seen anybody get so upset about someone giving them something for free since my mother got handed a condom in a shopping mall.
