You obviously have never seen a Star Wars movie, nor do you know what you want out of it. Star Wars is science fiction. Star Wars is space opera. Star Wars is not a chick flick starring Ben Affleck, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, or any of those pussyboys. If that's what you want, go watch the historically inaccurate Pearl Harbor. If you're a real nerd, you would know we don't care about interpersonal relationships in Star Wars, and that we don't want to see it. Go worship Jar Jar and DUAAFAFO!

You mean E-Maculation makes PPC emulators now? Jesus W. Christ! I thought all E-Maculation did was make fun of Emulators, Inc.'s Darek Mihocka, who claims that he's going to debut a PPC emulator at MacWorld. Hath Hell freez-ed over?
If you need to know anything about Asperger's Syndrome, Get This Book. Tony Attwood is a genius, and nine months ago I had the pleasure of talking to him at a conference in Binghamton, NY (at the Heritage Country Club, the former IBM Country Club), and I kowtowed to him. Take it from me, because I have Asperger's syndrome. I program VCRs before I read the manuals, and read the manuals for FUN. My friend Ryan is a Pokémon Fanatic. I am a computer gamer and my best friend Andy is a nerd like no other, programming until his brain leaks out his ears. And I still don't get neurotypical girls. And if you're going to cure autistic persons, leave them with Asperger's syndrome. Please.
Monopolies have the power to enrich themselves by evading the limitations of the competitive marketplace. Prices need not fall when demand slackens, and demand need not slacken if the monopoly makes itself essential to the economy (like electrical power or computer operating systems).
Uhh....electrical utilities are essential to the economy. I'll say that. But how are computer operating systems essential to the economy? Maybe they are...but how the hell does that make a software monopoly justifiable. MSNBC is a joint venture between Micro$oft and NBC. That's pure Micro$hit there. I should be free to run Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, Solaris, SunOS, XENIX *cough*, System V Unix, AIX, A/UX, QNX, BeOS, AtheOS, V20S, FreeDOS, PC-DOS, DR DOS, RX-DOS, PTS DOS, Mac OS, Mac OS X, Mac OS X Server, NeXTSTEP, OpenSTEP, Hurd, Plan 9, AROS, AmigaOS, oh hell, even OS/2. There's so many Operating Systems with their own uses, and Microsoft doesn't have the right to use monopoly power just because they think OSes are essential to the economy. And then there are other machines besides Wintel PCs. Macs, Amigas, Archimedes, Apple IIs;), NeXTstations...lots o stuff. But of course you already know this. So, lets do our share and JOIN THE EFF.
Look, get away from slashdot, Adolf. This isn't the place to shit yourself on fascis---oh I mean "conservative" issues. We have rights. Right wingers take away our rights, "for our own good" BUT IT IS NOT FOR OUR OWN GOOD. WE DO WHAT WE FUCKIN WANT YOU NAZI! HEIL HITLER, NAZI! RIGHT?? Rightwingers try to take away our rights, force beliefs down our throats, and tell us that they are the world's authority on what they think is right, and make us follow their perverted concept of civilization. You're one of them.

This man, David Powell, is going to hell. In fact, he shall be excommunicated at once. He is a hypocrite, and he is thoroughly evil. He uses tactics that would make Satan blush. This sinner engages in occult activities such as "haching", which is the total control of a system by removing it's faith in Him. However, if thou hadst performed occult ceremonies using the computor program "Diablo", thou shalt burn in the flaming furnaces in hell. This man preaches in a way that resembles a dirty occult Pokeman player preaching Christianity. This demon from hell is surely to take God from our people.
I think I'm going to hell for this....*teehee*

The reason this is happening is those antialias examples use ClearType technology, which is meant for LCD screens. It "borrows" reds and greens from neighboring pixels, to make a kind of subpixel effect. But, for CRTs, it just burns your fscking eyes out. I don't know why the developer chose it this way, but he's made a goof. Idiot. Windows 98 may be evil and occult, but it uses *REGULAR* anti-aliasing. That doesn't burn your eyes out. It uses different shades of the same fscking color to produce the anti-alias effect. It's easier to read. If you look at the evolution pic, you can see in the zoom, different reds and blues are used in the anti-alias process. Now type foo in GIMP and zoom in. The GIMP uses conventional, and non-eye-incinerating antialiasing. Like I said, Cleartype may make wonders on LCDs, but on the tube that everyone plus bob has, it burns your eyes out.

Aren't us nerds, geeks, and outcasts already limited in social intellect. I have Asperger's Syndrome, and I am a 14 year old high school student. No matter if I like it or not, I can not communicate socially, and I've been that way since birth. I've never had a girlfriend, and never had any "neurotypical" friends outside the close-interest category. All of them were in some way eccentric. That's how I fit in. There is no such thing as gaming addiction (neither is there "internet addiction", which is b.s.), because there is no way that these games can be psychologically (and certainly not chemically) addictive. We know when to quit. We all have our own stopping point. Speaking of that, I, as an Aspie, have always been a "genius". I may have faults, but I was born with them.
Speaking of sports, I think that certainly has negative side-effects. Recently, I was emotionally smashed in Phys. Ed. class. You see, our teacher gave us sportsmanship questions, such as "Is it wrong to purposely distract a player on the opposite team so he messes up?". I consistently answered "yes" to all of the questions (indicating I thought those activities were unsportsmanlike), but the jocks consistently answered "no" and made fun of me for being so "foolish that I thought those activities were unsportsmanlike". <sarcasm>After all, it is perfectly normal to attack the refs, the other team, and disrespect anyone who you don't like (moral moral!), now isn't it?</sarcasm> Seriously, that's bad, morally (don't take me for a religious person here). There's nothing wrong with participating in sports, but many people are fanatics, and horrify me.
Some people also don't care to be social, and when united behind a common interest (e.g. the game), they band together socially.

Haven't they learned yet? They keep using the word "hacker" and it makes me sick. At least/. has the brains to use the correct word. What would happen when OSI, ESR, or RMS does something extraordinary? Lemme guess...computer "genius". It seems more like "hacker" is the right word, because when you hack around with something, you play around with it, you tinker around with it, and you develop either new uses or new fixes for something broken. However, "cracking" makes me think of "cracking the code", which in turn makes me think of breaking code, breaking security, or solving a code you weren't supposed to know. Oh well.

Zophar's Domain
General Emulation Info...with Apple II sections.

This is a very valid point. First of all, RH7 is comprised of just about all free software, while Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional is all proprietary. RH7 may have 1000 bugs...but at the same time Microsoft has....wait a minute, we don't know that. Microsoft has never told us a single bug before they create a patch, and the.0000000000005394 bugs that do get patched are called "vulnerabilities," just to add a detail. Microsoft has never admitted a dangerous bug in it's life without providing a bullfeces excuse. Microsh1t has also never had as many features as any Linux Distro.
<RANT>
Let's say that Red Hat Linux 7 has a feature/bug ratio of 20:1. Microsoft's feature/bug ratio, with this data, must be 1 feature per 20 bugs. Trust me, if Microsoft had no bugs...why would we have these 3l337 h4><0Rz running around?
You also complain about RH7 System Update? Hey, it works for the first three weeks without a fix, but Windoze Update works for the 1st week only, without an Active>< error, and there sure as hell is no fix for that. That's my mileage anyway (Windows 98 Upgrade on my Grandpa's computer), I don't know about you. Now how else will you update your computer when you can't tolerate ActiveAss errors and JScript exceptions.
And then lets see....does Windoze come with superior terminal emus and consoles? No. But does Windows come with Skr1pt K1ddi3 holes in it's telnet? Oh yes, about 20 holes in telnet alone.
And RH7 has lots of features...features up the wazoo! But Windows has virtually no features compared to Red Hat, or even any other distro or BSD...TeX for Win? I haven't found that in C:\Program Files!
Oh well....I'll go home tonite and enjoy the freshness of Mandrake.
