  1. Re:but on Office 2003 Beta 2 Screen Shots · · Score: 1

    Yes, but Apple is a "visionary" and "forward thinking" for doing the very same thing.

  2. Re:BBS Games on Blizzard Births BBS · · Score: 1

    Don't forget The Pit!

  3. What's next? on Microsoft: Because Bugs are Cool · · Score: 1

    Is /. going to post Bill Gates's mugshot from 197whatever and shock us all?

  4. Where do you even start? on Microsoft: Because Bugs are Cool · · Score: 1

    You start by mentioning that this "interview"-- if it's genuine at all-- took place eight years ago.

    Grow up.

  5. Watch that knee jerk! on Sun Releases Solaris 9 for Intel · · Score: 2, Funny

    More power to them! Because they wouldn't be Microsoft if only they could! No sir! God Bless Sun! Hail Sun, the doer of all Good and Right in this wicked land of Microsoft!

    Sun! Sun! Sun!

  6. The Sims on Sim-Dud? · · Score: 1

    After repeated failures to get two chicks to make out, I gave up on The Sims.

    Seriously, what else is the point?

  7. Err.. on More NerdCore Science Fiction From Cory Doctorow · · Score: 1

    Okay, writing about CVS repositories in fiction is just... laughable. (referring to his earlier work, Ownz0r3d).

    That's just not going to work, sci fi or not.

  8. This is a load of smelly poop... isn't it? on MS Must Ship Java With Windows Within 120 Days · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Sun start out suing MS to _remove_ Java from Windows, then sue to get it back in, and so on? A few times back and forth?

    That's sort of obnoxious, like having a little brother with ADD and a mean streak.

  9. Okay... on Discovering New Music? · · Score: 1
  10. Argh. on QuickTime On Your Cell Phone · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Look, I want to make phone calls with my cell phone. I want to sometimes receive them.

    This is all. I don't want my cell phone to take pictures, play games, play QuickTime movies, launch surface to air missles, sing to me on lonely nights, do the jig, reminisce about the halcyon days of yore, and so on.

    All this whizz bang cell phone "technology" is obnoxious and a textboox example of feature creep.

    STOP THE MADNESS!

  11. Re:Give me karma on Ellen Feiss Interview · · Score: 1

    Wow! Error Morris directed all of those ads.. I had no idea. That's cool.

  12. Yo Shat. on Ask William Shatner · · Score: 0, Troll

    Do you have any advice for up-and-coming wife drowners or soon-to-be purchasers of worthless Internet stock?

  13. Dr. Mr. Shatner on Ask William Shatner · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Do you really think anyone cares any more?

  14. Uh.... on What's Keeping You On Windows? · · Score: 1

    _so lame_.

    Steve Jobs would be Bill Gates if he could and likewise Apple Microsoft. Come on! I'm sick of this Apple-as-a-shining-light theory. They do things that Microsoft would be crucified for, e.g. withholding APIs for Aqua so developers can't mod the desktops as easily as OS9.

    They jack up prices for the _propierty equipment_ to inordinate amounts. People say MS is the evil empire for having vendors put MS software on new computers-- can you buy an Apple with another OS? No?

    Where are the cries for blood? I'm sorry, Apple would just as easily perpetuate a lockhold on the entire industry if they could.

    Please, step off your high horse.

  15. Word! on 'Computer-On-Glass' Display · · Score: 1

    That's awesome. Now I can do lines of coke, code, and surf the web all on one convenient surface.

  16. Re:Too Easy on Google Sued over Page Ranking · · Score: 5, Funny

    You'd think the real anti Christ would just zap Google with some lightning bolts, some biblical hellfire, or some cool shit like that, rather than some lousy mundane lawsuit.

    Too bad!

  17. Re:note to newbies on Red Hat 8.0 For KDE Users (And Newbies) · · Score: 2, Funny

    he has lots of children! httpd, atd, smbd, and cron to name a few.

  18. Hmmm.. on Google sued as PetsWarehouse Lawsuit Continues. · · Score: 1

    Well, like Ari Fleischer said, the cost one bullet is significantly less than the cost of a war.

  19. Yawn. on Musicians vs. RIAA At USA Today · · Score: 1

    Zzz. You'll forgive me if I don't have _too_ much pity here.

    Joe Recording Artist is the one who takes the pen from the fat, greasy fingers of John Label Rep and signs the damned contract.

    If you don't want an 8 album contract, if you don't like the royalty system-- DON'T SIGN THE DAMNED CONTRACT.

    Major labels offer crap music anyway. Who cares?

  20. Err... on Apple to Unveil .Mac Today · · Score: 1

    The Microsoftification of Apple has officially commenced.

    Apple users: grab your ankles, get ready for the ride.

  21. AMD? on Analyzing Palladium · · Score: 1

    Does anyone have any information pertaining to AMD's answer to TCPA?

  22. Fuck it. on OpenSSH Vulnerability Disclosed, Version 3.4 Released · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm going back to telnetd and blind optimism.

  23. Re:Why was it kept hush hush? on OpenSSH Vulnerability Disclosed, Version 3.4 Released · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Because Theo de Raadt is a brat (ha! rhymes!) and anyone who says differently is a dirty liar or a micreant.

  24. Re:Why *I* am not buying a Mac on Why I Ain't Buying A Mac · · Score: 1

    What are the specs on your Mac? I am looking at Powerbook G4s to do DV and music (Logic, Reaktor, etc).

    Interested...

  25. Re:I wanted to move to Mars... on The End Not As Near As We Thought · · Score: 1

    no, I think Katz is more content independent.
