  1. No way, no how, unh-uh on The End Of Books As We Know Them? · · Score: 1

    People still print their frickin' email, you think their going to give up books?

    VHS stinks, it's slow, it's poor quality and it is here to stay b/c there's so much of it.

    Books far out number VHS tapes.

    Do the math.

    You HAVE to be kidding me

    This is totally insane! Shit I play UT every night, at some point or another fr4gm3 says "I will kill you all!" Am I breaking the law? Un-fucking-believable. Yet another gross overeaction by people ignorant of what the kids are doing.

  6. So our poster is on OS/2 on Living In A Microsoft Country (And Speaking The Language)? · · Score: 1

    My system, runs a non-Microsoft OS (lets just say its not a UNIX variant, and yes, it's a PC).

  7. 2 important things here... on Are Computers Stealing Your Memory? · · Score: 1

    1 -- Einstein said something like "Never remember things that are in a book."

    2 -- Have you looked at the general condition of the folks in the UK? Who cares what their doctors think? When they can make their teeth whiter or stop sending people across the Atlantic for heart surgery then MAYBE I'll care what they think. Assuming I put this down in my Palm IIIx.

  8. Re:CD falls down in a couple of ways. on A Love Song For Napster · · Score: 1

    "Now I'm not saying that even ID3V2 tags are the be-all-and-end-all, but at least it's an extendible format. CD Text is not sufficient to search my collection in a changer, and it's not extendible."

  9. Some ideas... on Can You Suggest Any Non-Zero Sum Games? · · Score: 1

    Life--No one likes it so no one will play

    NY Ranger Drinking Game--Everytime the Rangers Score you take a drink, since that never happens no one plays

    Web Surfing--I like counting banner ads

    Religion--Find one that isn't just out for your money; there isn;t one so no one wins

    HOWEVER, UNO is the game. You don't play UNO to win; you play to make the two people next to you lose. SO I would say UNO is the best game for this discussion.

  17. Re:The E-Trade commercial was a re-tread with a tw on Interesting Commercials · · Score: 1

    ---Not a retread. That was an allusion (to allude to.) Like an indirect reference. To make you go, "Hey I know what they're doing," notice how well it worked.

  18. There was this one ad... on Interesting Commercials · · Score: 1

    that wasn't too funny but the last line was hillarious.

  24. Certs are stupid, OK on Beowulf For Dummies? · · Score: 1

    ...but what makes a CNE better than an MCSE...

    Or is this Yet Another Microsoft Bash?

    Seriously Slashdot fuck up with this crap already.

    Linux IS better, we all know it. MCSEs are just learning the ropes. They are no stupider than you were when you were trying to rename a file for the first time. (mv?)

    michael (the guy who "wrote" the /. story) were you born with the innate ability to compute? Go get an MCSE and then make fun of them.

    I have one, I don't feel dumber for the experience, but I do feel about 20K richer!
