  1. Re:They shoot horses, don't they? on SCO: FSF Reply To GPL Claims, Conference Sponsors Back Off? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Love is largely out of the computer scene these days, I think, but there are still Sparks

  2. Someone stole my XBox on The State of the Game Console Wars · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    They didn't take any controllers, or the dvd remote, or the leads. If the fucktards ever got it to work, they would have found Bloodduster's Fisting the Dead album on the hard drive, among other music only a mother could love their son playing (damn that's a mixed metaphor). Sorry. I suppose I am still upset.

  3. Re:Lucky Linux users on Samba 3.0.0RC1 Released · · Score: 5, Funny

    In the spirit of GNU/Linux, I think GINA should be prefixed with the initials of the state where the lead developer originated... Virginia.

  9. Re:I'd be willing to bet that most of this happens on Identity Theft Countermeasures? · · Score: 1

    Keylogging in Internet cafes is a concern of mine. So I wrote a program that stores my passwords in it. It is password protected, but that is useless to them is they don't have the program. The program then lets you search for, and cut and paste usernames and passwords from the screen to your webpage or whatever. This is much safer to do in a intarweb cafe.

    Get outstanding warrants on your arrest for murder, by... um....

    Watch hilarity ensue as the person who stole your identity gets the chair!

    Ah. So glad I waited to see in seenima. It was good. The lick-minded comment was because I tried an OSX theme on my work windows box today, and I gotta say... It's got to be about the hardware. The software intheface sux!!!!

    I think Pei Wei Herman has already been discredited for masturbating in public. But I could be wrong.

  15. Re:Um, honesty in reporting on gDesklets - Gnome2's Karamba · · Score: 1

    That is an excellent rationale for having two open source projects that do similar things. I wonder if it is possible to quantify the benefits of side-by-side development of similar OS projects (e.g. loss of potential productivity owing to a split in resources vs. having each other's project to look at and learn from).

    Your point also addresses the value of all duplicated open source efforts, in particular the whole Gnome vs. KDE shizzah on it's highest level.

    I think another benefit of duplicated efforts (if they differ in philosophy, language, etc) is that the total number of people contributing to the same problem space would be greater than if there was just one project for a particular problem space.

    On the other hand, I imagine there is some point of diminishing returns where the dilution of available resources prevents anything from getting finished well.

    Unless he/she did it...
    a) To surreptitiously get known to the press and when they knock on your door to offer money for the story, you pretend to your parents that you don't know how they knew you.

    The hydrogen joke brought the house down, but the neutron joke knocked em dead and left the house standing.

  23. Re:Microsoft's innovation of the week! on Microsoft to do for Usenet what it did for Email & The Web? · · Score: 1

    Totally agree, except there is a place for the color and the passion in IRC. It's just a matter of being able to provide a better auto-kicking system. Say, if you had a bot that considered asl or a/s/l as an auto-banning term, even if it is done as a priv. Then things would be a little better. mIRC did give a lot of people a place to chat, though. I think the same thing will happen when MS open usenet up through their own software.

    Thing that pisses me off, is that there are always companies (read people) that exploit open places for their own purposes, and it destroys the ecology that surrounds the communities, and they don't give a fuck. Sounds like the real world (read any middle-eastern country that got exploited for oil in the 20th Century)

    Sorry about that, I'm violently agreeing with you.

    I need to view the html source to see if there are sarcasm tags there :)

    If you were German, you would be serious.

    But in Australia, if a beer doesn't have additives and preservatives, it is advertised as a feature. I still love it though.
