  1. Windows 7 on Ask Slashdot: New To Linux; Which Distro? · · Score: -1, Troll

    Windows 7, it won't crash while you are moving important files.

  2. Looked... on Ubuntu For Tablets Announced · · Score: -1

    Looked pretty good to me.

  3. Been using XBMC.. on XBMC 12.0 'Frodo' Released: PVR-Support, HD Audio and More · · Score: -1

    for 4 years, 5 days a week and only problems I ever had with it were due to arch linux. Switched to xbmcbuntu and been loving it.

  4. Re:Long story short on Valve Starts Promoting Steam For Linux To Windows Users · · Score: -1

    I have an xbox360 controller and and every game i have played on steam/pc/linux in the last 2 years has had a profile setup and loaded for it. Besides pc is about customizing, use whatever controller you want, thats a good thing.

  5. Re:Why? on Valve Starts Promoting Steam For Linux To Windows Users · · Score: -1

    I use and enjoy *unix and I agree with this.

  6. Re:THEN YOU DO IT MISTER HIGH AND MIGHTY !! on Torvalds Slams NVIDIA's Linux Support · · Score: -1

    I agree, this none stable ABI breaking shit all the time is annoying.

  7. docs on FreeBSD 9.0 Released · · Score: -1

    Nothing beats the freebsd documentation!

  8. Or... on LibreOffice Going Online and Mobile · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Or they could just make the desktop version not suck and do something about its terrible interface.

  9. Re:Have they totally lost it, or what? on Mozilla Contemplating Five Week Release Cycle · · Score: 0

    Updating documentation isn't as hot or sexy as bumping the version up one full major release, whether it deserves it or not.

    I have never seen a single open source project ever that gave two shits about documentation. Not one.

    FreeBSD (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/) Has done a great job.

  10. I like it. on Firefox 4 Released! · · Score: 0

    I installed version 4 on my windows 7 desktop and arch linux labtop and I really like it. It is defently an upgrade from 3.6 not having any of the issues others are crying about.

  11. And they all were.... on 35,000 Linux Benchmarks In a Week · · Score: 0

    And they all were done poorly and showed nothing useful for the real world.

  12. Re:Major problems still not fixed on Python 3.2 Released · · Score: 0

    IMO: 3.x is a stupid "upgrade. "

    Many things were changed, that nobody wanted changed. Major problems, such as the white space issue are not fixed.

    3.x gave the core developers an opportunity, a mile wide, to fix python's worst design flaws. But they ignored those flaws, and did what they wanted to do, which serves no purpose.

    The core developers are designing a language for themselves, and nobody else.

    Can you list some of these majors flaws? I am just curious.

  13. cult on USB Is the Devil's Connection · · Score: 1

    The article states they are a cult, not Christians. But either way carry on.

  14. Re:Why, oh why? on Half of Windows 7 Machines Running 64-Bit Version · · Score: 1

    Which adds up to not that much and unless you are stuiped, you are rocking 4+ gigs of ram.

  15. Re:NVidia engineering sucks badly on Nvidia's $200 GTX 460 Ups Bargain Performance · · Score: 1

    After two Nvidia video cards and one chip-set died early on me from overheating, despite additional cooling, I am not buying their trash again. Maybe "pro-gamers" do not mind an expensive card or main-board dying after 1-1.5 years, but I do mind rather strongly.

    I am with you, I have had 4 Nvidia cards and the only one that doesn't overheat, I spent 100$ on a new heat sink and another 25$ on a good quality fan.

  16. Re:huh? on Ban On Photographing Near Gulf Oil Booms · · Score: 1

    As someone that has worked in similar situations, I see no problem with this ban. there is always retards that think they can crash into your boat/machine to see whats up.
