  1. Expectations... on Default Behavior: Piranha vs. Microsoft SQL Server · · Score: 1

    When you buy a wooden door (Red Hat in this case) you expect it to keep people out. The really paranoid will set up deadbolts and chains to ensure this.

    Of course, when you buy a screen door (M$ products), you only expect the mosquitoes and flies to be kept out.

    As someone else posted, the only reason this was big news is because it is not seldom that you find a stupid Linux admin that will leave a default password, but we know there are plenty of NT 'admins' that can barely follow directions.

    As for ISS... I guess they're trying really hard to join the ranks of jp and his team of monkeys...

  2. how long... on Deja Linking Ads Within Usenet Posts? · · Score: 1
  3. Deteriorating orbit?!?!? on U.S. Had Plan To Nuke The Moon · · Score: 1

    I wonder if one of the deterrants to this half-assed-shit-for-brains of an idea was the slight chance that the moon's orbit would deteriorate and cause massive problems for our planet (like it wiping out what we now consider the americas).

    Of course, the other reason might have been that Carl Sagan looked at them and said Billions and Billions of brains are smarter than you .

  4. Let's sue the makers of audio recorders too!!! on Napster, Gnutella, Bans, Lawsuits And More · · Score: 1

    All these lawsuit geared toward software manufacturers really makes me wonder if audio cassette manufacturers were ever sued. I mean, they basically do the same exact thing that napster does. It allowed people to take sound from their radio and record it onto tape.

    Sure, the method was prehistoric in comparison with today's technology, but isn't the concept just the same?

    How about the dual cassette player? What was it's ONLY purpose? To listen to dual tapes simultaneously? I think not..

    Get a clue people and catch up to technology or else you'll get left behind.

  5. Re:Ok, this isnt even funny on Ythonpay 1.6 Eleaseray Eduleschay · · Score: 1

    Okay, it seems someone left the doors open and some whiners got in.. We're sorry it was an inconvenience to you, but as the banner says, this site is for NERDS not WHINERS. Please pick up your belongings and head straight for the nearest exit, and please, do not let the door hit you on your way out. One day, maybe you'll have your very own whiners.org site, in the meantime, you might benefit by buying one of those 'clues' everyone is talking to you about.
