  1. Re:Harry Potter Films! on Has Any Creative Work Failed Because of Piracy? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Don't forget the to exemplars of the industry: Star Trek XI and X-Men: Origins, which were so heavily pirated that everyone went bankrupt...oh wait, with bankrupt I mean "it just earned two times it's production costs".

    Wait, who let the RIAA guy in here?

  3. Re:Successor agency on Microsoft Opens Source Code To KGB's Successor Agency · · Score: 1

    Ah damn it, and I already thought you'd come up with "threaten to blow up Vatican City with an Anti-Matter bomb". ;) Though, I agree that (yours) would be an interesting plot for a James Bond movie...I can already see the end battle...Bond and the ex-communist leader are rolling on the floor, stopping short before the black hole...first Bond seems to lose, then he turns the tables and the evil overlord is sucked into oblivion (though, I still believe that blackholes are nothing more then super-heavy spheres)! But it's to late for the world, the black hole already exists...but luckily Bond has that new inflatable Earth with him which Q gave him at the beginning of the Movie...well, I guess Stilettos will be forbidden from that day on. ;)

    3. I hope that every computer you ever use from now on instantly has a catastrophic hard drive failure. That way, I will never, EVER, have to read another post generated by your worthless, idiotic mind.

    *bwahahahaha* Linux can run from CDs and USB-Sticks...I don't need a harddisk to run an operating system.

    iPorn? Now that's...an...idea...damn it...the domain is already taken. :(

    Because nobody would watch a 3-minute video of an iPhone sitting untouched on a table somewhere ...

    I doubt that.

    Ahhh, I see, thank you.

    ...or is a 'nuclear reactor' quiet different from a 'fusion reactor'?

  12. Re:But here comes Valve! on Is LGP Going the Way of Loki Software? · · Score: 1

    Yes, you can't use Steam offline (what's the point in using a an Online-Retail-Store and Management-System offline anyway)...but you can play most of the games without Steam, you just have to start the game directly without the Steam shortcut.

    Concerned what? Concerned Citizens?

    Btw, Valve seems to be working on that...

    That idea is actually great...I wonder if that would really work that easy.

    Or what if we sent mirrors into space to reflect sunlight on the Sahara...

    Yeah, they'd also become handy if some ice-cold scientist freezes up Gotham...again.

    So? You mean somebody drills a hole into the lines and drains electricity just like they do with pipelines?

  17. Re:Green?? on Europe To Import Sahara Solar Power Within 5 Years · · Score: 1

    I had the same thought...basically we could just try to filter and pump seawater straight into the desert to form lakes there. That should form some brief oasis, a little start...on the other hand I'm a dreamer with his head in the clouds.

  18. Re:One more case to be brought on Judge Rejects SCO's Motion For a New Trial · · Score: 1

    "SCO owns all rights and ownership of the core UNIX operating system source code" isn't that now a pure misstatement, false information and a lie? I mean, if we'd stick that sticker on our company, we'd get fired to orbit in no time by some authorities and other companies.

    Do you have a source for that? I've heard such stories (in different versions) several times and it starts to feel like an Urban-Legend.

    This is also illegal within Germany and Austria. We are not allowed to 'circumvent' any copy-protection-measures (including CSS) in any way...meaning that I can't legally watch my bought DVDs on Linux.

  25. Re:So, Miguel on De Icaza Says Microsoft Has Shot .NET Ecosystem In Foot · · Score: 1

    He said out of gnome. The above things also remove for example Tomboy, which is a part of the "gnome" package...

    That's what's happening if you remove a framework.

    But why do we have to - why not have Gnote instead in the first place?

    Because the GNOME developers made a decision...but you're free to fork it at any time. And I know that this argument gets old, but it's true.

    another .NET app is F-Spot, but if it's required, I'm guessing it can be replaced by GIMP...

    That's like replacing a Smart with a Truck.
