  1. Re:For the metrically challenged on Nuna 3 wins World Solar Cup for the 3rd Time · · Score: 0

    Thanks. We've never heard of Google calculator feature before, or, in fact, of calculators in general. We all truly appreciate your help in this matter.

    We also really appreciate your bullshit rounding. 102.7 kph = 63.8148214 mph, which should definitely be represented as 65mph, not 64mph. That's the difference between 1 and 2 speeding points in a zone with a 55mph speed limit! (By the way, 55 mph = about 90 kph. Just Google for "kph in 55 mph.")

  2. They didn't deserve to win on Nuna 3 wins World Solar Cup for the 3rd Time · · Score: -1, Flamebait
    These guys only took the race because the Persian Gazelle, an Iranian car, opted not to enter the race. Everyone knows the dutch are inferior.

    The average speed of the Iranian car was 141.62 km/h, and as everyone who's seen Back to the Future knows, "when this baby hits 141.62 km/h, you're gonna see some serious shit!"

    'The piracy business is not something anyone can make money on...'

    ...unless one were to receive tons of venture capital money.

    Why are all the media corporations such fucking retards? If they don't want me to download the season premiere of The O.C. (third season) two weeks before it airs, then there should exist an Internet subscription that comes with my Cable TV and Cable Internet! (Preferably, it should be just as easy to steal.)

    By the way, Trey doesn't die, and Julie Cooper tries unsuccessfully to blame Ryan for his bullet wounds.

    La mort, c'est la mort,
    Mais l'amour, c'est l'amour,
    La mort, c'est seulement la mort,
    Mais l'amour, c'est l'amour.

  23. Question regarding dell's hardware, etc on IBM, HP, Intel, NEC Announce Open Source Lab · · Score: 4
    Does anyone think that this will have an effect on the amount of proprietary hardware (for lack of a better word) that is included with their systems? For example, Dell saves some of its BIOS information on a hidden hard drive partition (much cheaper than CMOS). Compaq used to (I don't know if they still do) do the same thing on their Proliant servers. Hopefully we'll get some standard hardware here and less trouble getting systems to work with n*x.

    Comments, anyone?
