  1. Re:I disagree with your ideas... on Time Warner To Change DVD Region Coding System? · · Score: 2

    It's called civil disobediance, huh?

    If we all followed the law because not following it is always wrong, we'd still be part of Great Britain.

    Laws that are bad for society at large, IMO, should be broken. The hard part is finding people with enough courage to do it.

    P.S. I think I just got trolled :-(

  2. Re:The most depressing thing? on Slashnet Forum Chat Log · · Score: 1

    A vote for Browne is a vote for Microsoft... but I'm voing that way anyway!

    Watch the banner ads sometimes.

    It's the biggest waste of sheet metal since the Pikachu Beetle.

  4. Dark Matter Found? on Planets Without Stars · · Score: 1

    Is it possible that there's enough of these objects floating around out there to make up the matter deficit needed to make the Universe flat?

    If so, I guess the MACHO (MAssive Compact Halo Objects, or something like that) was right.

  5. Re:Mario Kart 64?!?! CTR or nothing. on Try Out Tux Racer This Weekend · · Score: 1

    Super Mario _Land_ was NEVER on SNES, only Gameboy.

    Idiot.

    My statement still stands regardless.

    Aren't you supposed to just push OPTION-1 or soething like that?

  9. Re:Can someone who is online then ask .. on SlashNET IRC Chat Tonight w/ CmdrTaco & Hemos · · Score: 1

    Post it to somewhere that actually cares, like kuro5hin.

    Additionally, keep resubmitting it until either Taco-boy gets the message or your accouint gets puled.

    Hard to use? Maybe.
    Hard to write? Hell no.


    Using yacc doesn't count.

    It is hard to write a compiler that generates code that runs at any decent speed.

  15. BAD THING. on H-1B Visas Increased In 96-To-1 Vote · · Score: 1

    Definitely a Bad Thing.

    You know why?

    Because, if this were really a free country, THERE WOULD BE NO SUCH THING AS VISAS!

    People would be able to come here freely, if they wanted to.

    Face it, we turn away many thousands from Mexico and Cuba for the "crime" of wanting a better life than they had. This is wrong and needs to be changed.

    Immediately.

    That's why I say the immigration laws need to go, the sooner, the better. It is wrong to force people to jump through legal hoops just so they can live on one piece of land rather than another.

    LOL!

    Unfortunately, it's pretty clear that Microsoft could argue that their constitutional right to a fair trial was violated by that!

    It's almost impossible to miss that huge thing, especially with 3, count 'em, 3 bullets!

    p.s. they're biplanes...

    How will they destroy Timeline...? Stay Tuned!

  21. Pedantic correction on Red Hat Linux 7 Infested With Bugs · · Score: 1

  22. Re:Double oh Red Hat. Kernel 2.4.0 and XFree86 4.0 on Red Hat Linux 7 Infested With Bugs · · Score: 1

    Not exactly.

    They _should_ be shipping XFree 4.0.1 by now, so it should be slightly stable.

    However, last I heard kernel 2.4.0 hadn't actually been released -- only 2.4.0-pre9. Now, THAT takes guts to install :-)

    It's a definite improvement over pre-8, though, which for me spontaneously rebooted after 10 minutes of Internet access.

  23. Re:Implications for DeCSS, CueCat, etc. on PlayStation Reverse Engineering Stands Up In Court · · Score: 1

    Given the current state of the USPTO, I'd have to disagree with that.

  24. Re:What is Microsoft up to now???? on Microsoft Withdraws Linux NTFS Threats · · Score: 1
    There is a catch somewhere, I trust the minds at Slashdot to find it. There is always something for Microsoft to gain from their moves......


    Sure. Somebody realized that if Microsoft lets the Free Software Folks work on NTFS compatibility, they won't have to spend any money later to do it themselves.

    Moderate as "redundant" as necessary.
