  1. Re:Dating the first clothing on The Coevolution of Lice & Their Hosts · · Score: 2, Interesting

    So why do all those cavemen (cavewomen?) women wear bras, and men don't?

    Seriously... in the study of ancient clothing... was it really that important for a woman to cover up her upper parts?? On the other hand (hehe), was this just something we devised later on? :-P

    Sounds stupid, but, ... I'm curious.

    No, easier would be for Chuck Norris just to start doing PUSHUPS to shove us all out of the way of any killer asteroids.

  10. You read the Bible? on Buy PC Without an OS... Get a Visit From MSFT? · · Score: 0

    Jules: You read the Bible?

    Ringo: Not regularly.

    Jules: There's this passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the OS-less PC through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am Microsoft when I lay my vengeance upon you!"

    Furthermore, what happens to a touch screen coffee table when you SPILL a cup of coffee on it?

  14. Wake me up... on Linux beats Windows to Intel iMac · · Score: 1

    Wake me up when they have VMware/VirtualPC/et al., running at near native speeds on this thing, with that nifty shift-control-apple key combo to switch between OSX and whatever full screen virtual machines you've got using that cool 3D cube effect...

    Now, THAT, I'd like to feel happen.

    A memory loaded Macbook Pro would DEFINATELY be the only computer I'd ever need when that comes through.

  15. Re:Limewire strictly prohibits it! on RIAA Says P2P Encourages Illegal Downloads · · Score: 2, Interesting

    There's a big blur obscuring the view of where liability lies in what someone does with what someone else makes.

    I'm not sure anyone (RIAA definately included) could be able to pull off a convincing argument one way or another.

    Better to find a way to go after abusers rather than users.

  18. Just to get mine BACK! on When Should You Buy Your Kid A Laptop? · · Score: 1

    I had to my her one (8th grader), just to get MINE BACK!!

    In hindsight, I think it was mean to buy her a cheap Windows laptop (mine is a Powerbook) because, now, who KNOWS what's going on on that thing? It's funny sometimes, because she says in that way of wanting something from Dad, "Dad, can I use YOUR laptop? I want to check my e-mail." I'm thinking, "Lord, what's living on YOURS?"

    "...already!" I might add.

  20. Re:What about powerbook? on Apple Switching to Intel · · Score: 1

    It means that within two years (should the timelines hold) you should be able to pick up a Powerbook with whatever the descendant of the Pentium M will be at that time.

    Should be a very good thing for Powerbook users. Intel's been pretty good at keeping the mobile users on par with their desktop counterparts. Unlike the current disparity between the Powerbook G4 and the desktop G5's.

    Think of VMWare/VPC on these Intel Powerbook machines, too, and you've got one slick notebook to carry around.
