  1. Let's not let the facts get in the way on The Case for the Empire · · Score: 1

    .. of a good story :o)

  2. Re:Zappa did it first on Mashed-Up Music · · Score: 1

    I believe the live album and (audio content of the ..) video 'Does Humor Belong in Music' was made up of recordings from different shows. So the guitar was from one concert, the bass from another, the keys from a third and so on.

    If you compare the sound of the album with the video, they are completely different - the video being much much better IMHO.

    I used to have the video, but it got chewed. If anyone has a copy they want to sell, please post..

  3. There are only 12 notes. Everything is plaigarism. on Mashed-Up Music · · Score: 1

    'nuff said

  4. Re:Download Solaris 8.0 on Sun Reconsidering Solaris 9 for x86 · · Score: 1

    I'm a bit late replying, but hey ! I'm not *so* busy using real UNIX (AIX, Solaris and Linux as it goes) that I haven't got 5 minutes ...

    Linux isn't unix - its a minux clone.
    - Read Rebel Code then get back to me.

    Yes, Linux could be considered UNIX, but its still a newbies unix. Real unix is Solaris and FreeBSD. You're just in your ignorant 'linux can do everything' world. Well my friend, until you at least try another unix, STFU.
    - See my opening comment. Please provide one concrete example of something Solaris can do that Linux can't. Shut the fuck up yourself BTW.

    True UNIX is capable of running on Big Iron, not your 386.
    - HAHAHAHAHAHA. Have you heard of IBM ? Dork.

    Solaris SMP kicks linux's ass and also has commercial backing. It amazes me how linux can do so well with next to zero organization. Linux is just a bandwagon and no ones in the driver seat. Linus doesn't scale well... so he quit. Besides, are you making money from Linux? I'm not.
    - So RedHat aren't making money ? 'Nuff said.

  5. Hello - Yeah, I'm on the train... on Another Reason to be Annoyed by Cell Phones · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'd be more worried about the cumulative effect of loads of commuters repeating the mantra..

  6. Doesn't GIMP have a tabbed palate ? on Will Flash Be Taken Off The Shelf? · · Score: 1

    ..in the layers & channels dialog ?

  7. Re:Download Solaris 8.0 on Sun Reconsidering Solaris 9 for x86 · · Score: 1

    according to http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/binaries/get. html the x86 free downloads are no longer available. I downloaded the ISOs a few months back, but never got round to checking it out. Why bother, when x86 Linux is:
    a - *real* unix just like solaris
    b - does everything that solaris can and more
    You gotta ask yourself, why go through the pain ?

  8. Re:Forcing the issue? on Web-Surfing Indian Slum Kids Ask: "What's a Computer" · · Score: 1

    It's hardly bring *forced* on them

  9. Licenses ? on Patent Granted on Sideways Swinging · · Score: 1

    Licenses are available from the inventor upon request.
    Huh? I need a license to swing ? I'd better jump off right now then ,-}

  10. You can't hear your stereo above PC noise ?!?!?!?! on Building the Quiet PC · · Score: 1

    Wow. I suggest you try the following - Get a new stereo. ;o)

  11. Re:But I like the noise! on Seagate Claims New Drive Silent and Fastest · · Score: 1

    yeah. Especially when you leave the cover up. Heh, Heh, Heh.
