  1. I wonder... on Wiretapping Bill Passes Swedish Parliament, 143 to 138 · · Score: 0

    Was this legislation some sort of delayed response to the Julius Baer mess that Wikileaks blew open a while back?

    And it won't be "Linux" itself; it will be some windows user-friendly distribution of it.

    It is called "Ubuntu." Look into it.

    And yes, it is friendly to people migrating from Windows. That is sort of the point.

  6. Re:No download? on Joomla! A User's Guide · · Score: 0

    It's Joomla. What did you expect? One of the biggest problems with Joomla, is that while it itself is free, it's far from userfriendly, and has a massive learning curve. So much so in fact, that there's a whole parasitical industry built up around it in template and modules design.

    It's amazing the number of people that do, indeed, expect you to pay for Joomla stuff.

    Your issue is a non-issue. The same applies to all of the bigger CMS systems (Drupal and phpWebsite spring to mind) and there are pro (semi-pro?) template designers and module creators for all of them.

    This will drive more customers to services like EasyNews. No way is anyone going to take away my alt.politics The problem arrives when every ISP uses such a poorly-conceived filter, then where do you go for unfettered access?

    If they're norton buckets they're also (a) glued to the floor so you can't use them anyway, and (b) full of holes themselves.

    What if all the holes are in the bottom of the bucket? Wouldn't the glue actually help COVER the holes?

  18. Total parody of the scientology.org website. on UK Teen Cited For Calling Scientology a "Cult" · · Score: 1

    Check out http://www.churchofmyconology.com/

    Excerpt:

    Myconology is the worship and consumption of huge mounds of manure while living in a stale, lifeless environment and giving yourself entirely to some relentless moron. The Mycon system of belief firmly embraces all of the following:

    Mushrooms have it good. They are kept completely in the dark and eat whatever is laying around, with no need for conscious thought. Mushrooms can be harvested for the sole benefit of the reaper without the need for compensation. Why can't humans be more like that? The truth is... they can.

    In Myconology, there are no worries about social pressures or making correct decisions, because all the decisions are made for you. Just keep your mouth shut, produce for your owners, and pay the money on time. Anything else is counter-productive and will be punished.
