  1. Re:Why is font handling so bad? on XFree86 News · · Score: 1

    Thanks!!

    Using your "advice" my Xserver won't start with true type fonts in the font path anymore.

    You are the best.

  2. Re:PGCC on madddog on Linux v NT Benchmarking · · Score: 1

    You must be doing something way wrong, I have seen speed jumps in rc5 for all the chips I have gone up. From a P133 to a PII 500. All have gone up for rc5.

  3. Re:Something faster Solid stat hard drives on Ask Slashdot: Breaking the Computing Bottleneck? · · Score: 1

    Did anyone else notice that this was probably one of the world's longest run on sentences?

  4. Re:Microscopic Particles of 'Force' on Review:Star Wars:The Phantom Menance · · Score: 1

    This Lucas's attempt to stop the religous zealots from going off about his movies.

    Alot of groups were very displeased with his use of the force as a mystic thing that permeates the universe.

    They thought he was trying to devleop a new religion based on the force.

    What it comes down to is that he is giving a scientific explaination, instead of a mystic one.

  5. Re: We don't need to waste money... on NASA talking again about manned mission to Mars · · Score: 1

    Yeah sure, I think quite possibly the most important task of this is race is to develop interplanetary travel. Without it we are just a overcomsuming and overwasting creature, taht willl soon deplete what is left of this world.

    With the ability to leave the planet we are now tied to, we could possibly survive the next millenium.

    So if you think that wasting money on developing travel to other planetrs, you must not care about your grandchildren, or there gradchildren.


    Read some Heinlein.
