  1. Blizzard can have my money if.. on Warcraft III Gone Gold · · Score: 1, Informative

    1. The have a linux native version.
    2. The allow people to run servers under linux.
    3. They pull their head out of DX's ass.

    That's it.

  2. Why don't they die already. on DRM Helmet · · Score: 0

    If I keep hearing about digital "rights" management and other acts of desperation, I think I'm going to mail a bag of what they're selling to the CEO's. And no, it ain't Titney Spears newest dogfart for pubescent kids.

    Just realize that it's over. You don't control information. Your existence was fluke to begin with, and now it's time to go back from whence you can. Have some respect for sh|t's sake. Die with dignity.

  3. Moot on The Myth of the Lone Inventor · · Score: 1, Funny

    The fact that I'm loggin onto his http with a one man noncorporate sponsored OS, browser, and tcp/ip packet doesn't say alot for his theory.

    But what do I know, .. wait- let me ask permission first.. nope, can't tell ya. Sorry, No comment.

  4. Re:suspend-to-RAM? on Linux Development Kernel 2.5.18 Released · · Score: 0

    The difference is that one suspends to the hard drive, and this one suspends to ram. The reason for this is the difference between electricity and a gerble. One is much faster.

  5. Re:The BSA isn't all bad on Shakedown: How the Business Software Alliance Operates · · Score: 0

    hehe.. You, my friend, scare me.

  6. I think i just shite my pants on Warnings to Red Hat about AOL Buyout · · Score: 0

    Dear God, make me a bird, so I can fly faaah, faah faah away from heya.

  7. Good. Spare the Asians. on Adobe Considers Withdrawing from Asian Markets · · Score: 0

    When are going to withdraw from the US market?

  8. Re:All DVD drives...or just that NEC model? on DVD Drives Defeat Cactus Data Shield · · Score: 0

    Hahaha... that would be funny as hell, .. errr.. if it weren't so damn true. Ugh..

  9. Rage on Fed Raids Software Pirates in 27 Cities · · Score: 0

    I would post something intelligent right now, but I am too damn angry. This is the kind of shit that makes me root for the terrorists.

    The BSA was formed by Microsoft. You arrest the most intelligent people in our society at the most prestigious schools in the country for them?

    We are all about 5 years away from getting a nuclear bomb planted on our front porch and your doing the NAZI 2-step? What the Fsck is wrong with you drones. Was this the "law" when Hitler was in charge too?

    Dumb sons a bitches. Where's my damn passport.

  10. Nice on The Future of Ideas · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I think I'll buy that book. Very appropriate at this point in the game that is our lives. Intersting.

  11. Re:i just got a GeForce 3 64mb DDR Asus v8200 WHY? on GeForce3 Titanium Reviews · · Score: 1, Insightful

    If you read the reviews, your card is still top of the line. The only faster is the ti500 or whatever, which is 5-7% faster. Don't get upset... they're just repackaging the same card. Why innovate, when you can market it?

  12. Ugh on Review Of 3D Web Browsers · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    How about posting something about ready made bomb shelters. That way, when you all get laid off and incenerated, we can take over the site for you and talk about 3D web browsing.

  13. Hubbard's a moron on Workingmac.com Interview With Jordan Hubbard · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    nuff said.

  15. Re:Is the KT-133 chipset issue fixed? on Mandrake 8.0 Comes Out · · Score: 1

    It's a VIA issue, not linux or otherwise. The chipset's bios corrupts data when you have two IDE drives on two separate ide channels tranferring to each other a file over 100 MB's in size. A bios update needs to be issued. You don't here about this issue when running windows, because they always crash anyway... and no, I'm not kidding. Anyhow, that's the status. Read through http://groups.google.com/groups?oi=djq&as_ugroup=f a.linux.kernel for up to date info on how the kernel is working around the hardware.

  16. Even the Sun shines on a Dog's Ass once in a while on Rep. Gets It - Boucher Re-Examines Fair Use · · Score: 1

    It's possible that this guy is a bona fide honest person. He's a Representative, so he doesn't have much clout and therefore he hasn't sold his soul to satan yet. Odds are he'll switch sides when he becomes a Senator. It's sad to see. Maybe he and Billy Tauzin(R-LA) can get together and actually make life in the US bearable for free speech. All I know is that unless this guy has balls of platinum, he's going to flop with the rest of the Senate whores(McCain included).

  17. Internal email from that pimp on MS Wants To Outlaw Open Source: "Threatens" the "American Way" · · Score: 1

  18. We're talking about the NSA, right? on NSA + VMware = Crackproof Computing? · · Score: 1

    Perhaps my memory is foggy, but hasn't everything the NSA touched in the past two decades been exploitable due to them? PGP? OS? Take yer pick. Their job is to fuckup and subvert encryption. Why the hell are we trusting them with linux? I'd bet my 3-assed Monkey that they won't release the source of the tech.

  19. Germany on PlayStation 2 Launched In Europe · · Score: 1

    There are quite a few PS2's left in Germany. They are at the Toys R Us stores and seem to be being bought up quite quickly. I was in a Koln store on Friday, and they were packed, but stocked. Mostly the guy counterpart of couples were buying them.. seems like the men have found their escape from the women.

  20. wait for the mirrors? on Mandrake 7.2 Download Available · · Score: 1

    Umm, like the guy above me said, 7.2 has been up for 2 days. I'm surprised ./ didn't post earlier. All the primary mirror sites had the data by the time these guys told you. Just so you don't get too upset. Later.

  21. Winmodems on Mandrake 7.2 Download Available · · Score: 1

    www.linmodems.org Some are supported, most are not. They are supposed to have decent xfer rates if linux can control it properly.

  22. It doesn't matter if we vote. That is the point. on Messages From Democracy's Ghosts · · Score: 1

    If we elect GW or Gore, we are making the same choice. They are both the same. They both are funded by the same people. The only difference is that BET funds Gore, so now he loves blacks more than other minorities. Whoopty. Our politicians represent SIG's and PAC's. They do not represent the people, no matter if we vote them in or note. We are not represented anymore. Remember how this Country was founded. Taxation without representation is what? What? Tyranny. It is grounds for a rebellion and an overthrow of the system that is our government. They need to Amend the Constitution yet again, so that there is a separation between Business and State. Where Church once was, now Business is. We need them to have been gone yesterday. They are ruining this Country and Planet.

  23. It's hard to find good help these ... on Should You Vote? · · Score: 1

    I voted absentee ballot for Hagelin. I think GW and AG are an absolute joke and I already want to shoot both of them in the face, and this is when they're trying to suck up to us. Quite sad.

  24. I hope.. on The Last Days Of Politics · · Score: 1

    I'd like to think that politics in this format are over.. but until everyone has net access, and until natural resources aren't controlled by these warthog's, the government will continue to be "By the business, for the business, and of the business". We need another amendment. Separation of Business and State. If we keep going this path, we won't survive. I hope we make it.

  25. Re:Slashdot stealing content? on VoodooExtreme Interview With John Carmack · · Score: 1

    Umm.. that case already went to court. Nobody ownes links. And since its not DecSS or kiddie porn, it is their right. But, morally and out of consideration.. I don't know. Depends on how the site is set up. But, either way, voodooextreme is slammed nonresponsive. I can't get it no matter if I hit the link or the main cache. So, moot point in the instance.
