  1. Re:Finally ... on Google Confirms Chrome GPU Acceleration · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I know personally if Opera hadn't tried getting me to pay for the browser, I would probably still be using it. That was the worst timing ever. Firefox came out, and Opera wanted money. I know they don't ask for cash anymore, but the horse was out of the barn by the time they wised up.

    Creationists don't deserve an ounce of respect, or time. Period. Maybe people wouldn't mistake you for one, if you'd stop trying to defend them...

    It's almost as if trying to catalog every location on the planet is a big job. ;)

    Only Libertarian keyboard commandos believe in rights, amirite?

    Tell it to the parent! I'm not the one that lumped the two together as I whined about being treated unfairly.

  7. Re:This is bad on Just Where Is The Lincoln Memorial, Anyhow? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    A dirty trick would be putting billboards up giving the wrong date for an election, or bugging your own office and blaming it on a competitor. Someone editing a google map entry, is pretty weak on the 'dirty trick' scale.

  8. Re:Coincidences on Just Where Is The Lincoln Memorial, Anyhow? · · Score: 1

    Entertainers worry themselves with ratings. The fact that Fox News spends a chunk of their time bragging about their own ratings, says everything.

    Good thing we have the voice of reason here! I mean you only suggested the OP should be shot for a comment! That's very reasonable. Why would anyone want to stereotype conservatives?

    You bring up another great point too. Why on a site that is "News for Nerds" would people mock creationists? It's just not fair! Teach the controversy!

    It's a nefarious conspiracy, I tell you!

  11. It's a plot to silence Glenn Beck on Just Where Is The Lincoln Memorial, Anyhow? · · Score: 0, Troll

    I mean, if google has scrubbed the Lincoln memorial from their maps, how else will Beck faithful be able to find it? If only there was a media outlet that hyped this event for the entire summer. Oh wait...

    So you're suggesting that drives don't get fragmentation on Linux? Speaking of raving idiot...

    You do realize that Valve has Linux server clients for all of their games, and the Steam infastructure itself runs on Linux right?

    Just sayin'.

  14. Does not compute. on Making Ubuntu Look Like Windows 7 · · Score: 1

    My only question is this: Why? If I want to use Windows 7, I'll just use it. Why make a Linux install appear to be a clone of Windows? I just don't get it.

    Yeah his comments on that forum are extremely childish. Too many "dudes" for me to even take seriously.

    I hear that every install of ZFS for Linux comes with a pre-installed Steam client, and a free copy of Team Fortress 2 For Linux!

  17. The "X" in Xbox stood for something. on Lenovo To Launch Chinese Gaming Platform Called Ebox · · Score: 1

    The "Xbox" was a reference to the software it runs on, namely Direct X. What does the E, in Ebox stand for?

    Is that why they want to repeal the 14th Amendment?

    Would it kill you anti-MS zealots to just stick to facts?

    I mean seriously, it's not like there are no actual problems to criticize MS for, but if you have to use lies and bullshit to do it, it's not going to help your case against them. If they're evil, then point out why they're evil. If it's true, you shouldn't have to make up bullshit about them.

    Who exactly is "The Left", and which protesters have been hired? You've seen these people at differing rallies, so surly you can provide some actual evidence.
