  2. Re:Looks like a great book if you're stuck with PH on PHP In Action: Objects, Design, Agility · · Score: 1

    Remember folks, the acronym for PHP Object Oriented Programming is POOP.

  3. Re:I'm not sure on Cloverfield Discussion · · Score: 1

    Rest assured the storyline, and plot will be revealed in the next movie. You mean like Lost. Where episode after episode, season after season, everything would be revealed in the next episode or season? JJ Abrams is the one that needs that kick in the gonads. His cr*p is over-hyped and over-rated. I was very disappointed that he is doing the next Star Trek - will suck big time because of him not despite him.

  7. Re:Should have been in the spec from day 1 on Spec Will Cut External Drive Power Cords · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why wasn't the spec designed right in the first place? Because most of the time, the people that write these specs, or design this stuff, don't seem to use any products in the real world...
  8. Re:learning curves on UI Designers Hired by Mozilla · · Score: 1

    Why does everything today has to be "for dummies" or in "24 hour" Uhm, because people are stupid and lazy. And popular culture values style over substance.

    Under the smaller and faster XP, I press Windows, f, Enter.

    Yours is another example of how Microsoft buggered the UI in Vista.

  10. Re:Great news!! on Sun Buys MySQL · · Score: 1

    Must beg to differ. This is very bad news!

    Knowing Sun, they will somehow bugger MySQL with Java, making it more bloated and slower.

    A sad day indeed.

  11. 13.3" Display on Apple Announces MacBook Air · · Score: 1

    Is it a cheap-arse 6-bit per RGB (256K color) or a proper 8-bit per RGB (16M color) display panel?

    This is part of a reg file I run on every Windows machine I set up:

  19. Re:No reasonable person on Web Snapshots Are Nabbed for Commercial Uses · · Score: 1

    I saw this on Digg or Reddit awhile back. Looked at the original photo and the alleged copy. While the photos are similar, they are also different enough that two owners of the same fugly mutt could have ended up taking pictures that end up looking somewhat the same.

    In the olde days, when most of you /.ers where still pooping your diapers, we used less pompous sounding language like "rewrite", "function", "subroutine", "library". Then some highly educated jackasses came along and started calling it "refactor", "class", "object" and other such nonsense. :-p
