So the husband is at the door, with the suitcase packed and the and a one way plane ticket in his hand and the wife is screaming she's going to divorce him. Pathetic really.
If I were inclined to burgle, I would certainly prefer the bust into the house that has all the cool gear to play with then to spend my time breaking into the dog house in the back yard. No?
I believe that was my point. To say that KDE is ugly/beautiful or rap music is likeable/disgusting is completely redundant and only illustrates the the authors bias, not some insight. Man you people are thick.
Bwaaahaahaa. Bib laden vs. the USA. 1 guy takes on the superpower of the planet and they, after 7 months of war, are not sure where he is. Holy crap. And how many people have written code under the GPL and M$ still exists. It's funny. Oh yeah, it's funny alright. Femnix, Blacknix, Fagnix. It's all about America. Isn't everything?
I still can't get over the BS that I heard re Y2K. The best (or worst if you will) was one of my clients was told they had to upgrade their AIX, plus more memory plus a bigger SCSI drive, all total around $10k. I did some research and they didn't need the upgrade. The vendor insisted to the point of threatening to drop support if they did not comply. So I took the president of the vendor company out for lunch and asked him what he was doing. "You know they [my client] don't need to this upgrade." I said. He looks me in the eye and says, "I don't care want you say, I want my money."
I'm so proud the be a tech specialist at moments like that.
I'm sure there are a lot of folks that think/. is worth $5/mo. I'm not one of them. I can't think of a site anywhere that I would pay anything for actually. The internet is all just amusing noise and it's not worth a thing. Since the "global village" was founded I've learned one thing: that nobody else has a clue either and I'm not interested in paying for that confirmation on a monthly basis. I'm sure ya'll will miss me.:)
Perfect security is a joke. If it could exists, there would be no police. Of course Windoze has holes in it, so does Linux and any other software you can name. People are fallible and programmers are people (well most of them are;) The thing that burns me up is that people will actually believe they are safe because of this tripe. Computers are not safe. Period. Never will be. If you have a door, it doesn't matter how many locks are on it, if somebody wants to get in, they will get in. Don't leave your valuables in your house. It's simple. All this natter on/. about what a goat f**k windows is does nothing to educate the saps who buy this stuff and don't know any better. Tell your friends, your aunts and uncles, computers are not safe for important info and never will be. Oh yeah, all your money is in some computer somewhere isn't it? I guess no one wants to hear this.
Also, is it just me or does the name "Duron" not sound very catchy?
The Duron is actually the middle processor of the "Moron" line of precessors, designed specifically for XP. If you look in the start menu on XP and you're running a Duron you'll see the My Moron icon. The "Freon" is the fasted at 3.2 GHz but requires a gallon of coolant every 100 web pages. The "Peon" is the entry level processor. You can read the whole article here
Lets face it, it's the credit cards companies that have all the real dirt on you anyway. Stick your picture on your VISA and that would be that. And you can't order a frickin pizza without a credit card these days. I'd like the chip-in-a-holo on my forehead please.
Slashdot Mirror
only because it's true
If ESR cared as much about linux and open source as he claims he does, he would stop talking about it in public.
It's News for Nerds and this is not news!

They are for the US government, everyone and everything else is secondary.
Now they just need to port the rest of OS/X to windows and we'd have something!! :)
until they just call it compulsory product de-activation for the virii they produce to keep themselves in business.
what?

Who cares what dogs doo? Copyright nothing and no one will sue you. It's simple.

Gnome is the axis of Eazel people. Oh yeah!
Modded to flamebait. *Sigh* You modders missed my sarcasm altogether. This site gets butt-uglier and butt-uglier by the day.

...and Gnome is beautiful. Uh huh. And some people actually like rap music too.
Perhaps all those VB "programmers" will actually learn how to write real code.

which also means only the ppl with disposable income will have a voice, like the way it works IRL. How nice.

"I got KP cus my suit crashed dude, and I had to give sarge the three finger salute!"
Perhaps they'll put XP in it for an OS, since according to the ads, XP can already make you fly!
I can't help but wonder if you ran the UofM code against the GT code, what you would come up with.

Finally! I knew there were politics about.
