  1. What!? on SCO Denied Motion To Change IBM Case Again · · Score: 4, Funny

    Since when can you not change your case multiple times over the years? And since when do they have to show evidence? Isn't SCO's word good enough? This is a travesty! There is no justice!

  2. Re:Not a fine art on Is Programming Art? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    When you have to take functionality into account, it often kills the artistic side of the creation.

    That would mean that architecture, furniture design, etc lacks in the artistic side? I dont think this is the case at all - giving something functionality doesnt remove the artistic side, they complement each other and are not mutualy exclusive.

    oh dont worry, the robots have a mighty strong grip and you're a much less efficient fuel source clutching that slide rule.

  8. safety. on Your Digital Photos Are Too Professional · · Score: 3, Insightful

    ..and yet you can still buy knives, hammers, pillows and other dangerous object that could be used to KILL someone. I guess full and complete protection of 'intellectual property' is more important than full and complete protection of human life.

    Or maybe, just maybe we dont need everything to be protected?

  9. 'Trapeze-Lanyard Air Drop.' on t/Space Demonstrates New Air-Launch Method · · Score: 4, Funny

  10. Re:sounds like the iPod interface on $70 Cordless Notebook Mouse with No Scroll Wheel · · Score: 1

    The iPod wheel is linear like a scroll wheel, even though its layed out in a circle - this sounds more like the touchpads that have been on most laptops for the last ten years, but dropped onto the top of a mouse.. pretty good idea actually, I hate using a mouse without a scroll wheel, and the side to side control would be a nice addition. got to get that price down though!

  15. Re:Our offer. on Microsoft's Slap at Samba · · Score: 1

    No, they will only make the source code available to people with DRM enabled chips embedded in their brains.

    The best way to protect ideas is to never ever tell anyone about them.
