    How was the parent off-topic?

    I was implying that the PTB are trying to feed people mis-information in order to slow them down.

    Big (insert industry here) wants us fat, lazy, and dumb, mainlining genetically modified microwave dinners and drinking diet soda while we watch NASCAR and American Idol so that we can buy prescriptions for Prozac and Lipitor.

    Too many people are only entertained by things that come off the Wal-Mart shelf labeled "entertainment".

  7. New market. on UK Outlines Plan For Internet Black Boxes · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I live in the U.S. and will provide U.K. citizens with custom VPN configurations at reasonable cost (especially considering the sorry state of the U.S. dollar).

    Sounds like you're are going to need it, mate.

    Accounts can be had from servers in either the U.S. or the Netherlands, depending on your needs.

  8. And... on Stretching Before Exercising Weakens Muscles · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    In related "news": A new study funded by General Foods and Monsanto finds that working out and eating whole foods are really bad for you. The dietitians and trainers involved in the study recommend that everyone eat as much aspartame and genetically modified food as possible. And now back to your regularly scheduled American Idol.

    Oh God, I hate that.

    Running out of entropy, that is.

    would 5 1/4" floppy be a reasonable medium?

  14. well on Amazon Launches "Frustration-Free Packaging" · · Score: 1

    the best way i have found to open clamshell packaging is to find the widest expanse of flatness and make a 2 or 3 inch cut across is

    then grab the flap created by your cut in one hand, and the opposing side in the other hand, and pull it apart

    make sure you don't let go

  15. Re:Didn't we figure this out already? on Video Games Linked To Child Aggression · · Score: 1

    However there is a link, And saying Hey I play violent video games and I didn't kill people yet isn't a good response.

    Your use of the word "yet" is questionable.

    Popping a cap in a bitches ass, no problem.

    Only if you are Jewish and the "bitch" is a Gentile.

  17. Re:The server version? on Shuttleworth Says Canonical Is Not Cash-Flow Positive · · Score: 1

    Canonical hasn't "stolen" anything from Debian, they forked it.

    Debian has the same purpose for existence that it has always had: A stable distro that adheres to open standards.

    For what it's worth, I would not dream of running Ubuntu for a server. Both of my dedicated servers are running Debian Etch and I never have a problem. Ever. All I use them for is serving up Apache2 with PHP and MySQL, Icecast, an IRC server with an Eggdrop for hosting support. YMMV

    6 out of the 7 desktop computers on my home network run Ubuntu as the primary OS, a mix of 7.10 and 8.04.

    Use the tool that fits the job.

    Disclaimer: I have been running Debian since late 1997 and am somewhat biased as a result.
