  1. Re:The Truth About Linus on Inside Transmeta · · Score: 1

    why was it moderated down? there is no proof that this epic story is based on fiction, insanity or drug abuse. I presume, acting in defense of this aspiring auhor gets me at least a -1 moderation. Though being on the verge of becoming a troll i take this burden. swashbuck

  2. Re:The following quote is chilling on AOL Protects Kids From Liberals · · Score: 1

    what is real world in your head anyway? There is always conflict. The whole life is conflict. Maybe it would be better to make yer head and tongue tools of conflict. In a society where firearms are nearly nonexistant, there are not as many killings as in a society which poses as an armed camp. Maybe you gun-fuckers will never learn this. But the topic is about AOL and filter software that is biased (somehow). If you dont like it, dont use it. But it is not very commendable to let them kids educate themselves. Education is work, and having kids not accessing things they should not experience in a tender age is still a kind of education. But that doesnt prevent you from discussing it with you children. swashbuck

    untrue my girlfriend is a stout irc fan. she was even once elected as quake-chic. and she never played it online. somehow, it would be better if we all would be old, fat truckdrivers (no offense)

  4. Re:Photon at rest? on Practical Gravity Shielding for Spacecraft? · · Score: 1

    Well.... if this magic device this funny article is about works, i am just curious how this huge amount is accumulated, stored and then applied, without causing the destruction of everything in the vicinity? Extradimensional space? how will this guy survive within this? As we are creatures bound to our three dimensions, how are we supposed to enter another one? Only my mind is capable (or not) to do some mathematics with other dimensions, i doubt my body could follow. Because we all know: In space there is no lasagna

    You are absolutely right! ...with youre comment. I cannot understand why they dumped of the good old dos into oblivion. In the 15 years of its existence they were not able to modernize it. Dont dare saying that Win95 is an improvement! Well, lets see... now i wanna go to this BeOS stuff and check it out. See ya

  6. Re:Come on people, is Windows really that bad? on Microsoft Windows 2001 Beta Slips Out · · Score: 1

    You are lucky that your linux runs fine. I just wanted to install a linux (redhat 6.1) but i met some problems. i could not install a working x-server as there was no possibility to get it working with more than 640x480 in 256 colors. we tried it with three different methods to configure the x server but in most cases even the 640x480 mode didnt work. I know that windows isnt the cream of operating systems, but i didnt have any probs installing my graphics adapter. well you could argue, who needs those desktop environments anyway! try installing an isdn-adapter by console as long as my machine wont work as i like it unter my windows, it is just second rate. If this changes somehow, and linux becomes a little bit more userfriendly, i am the first to change the system,
