  1. Geo Metro on Windows Expert Jumps Ship · · Score: 1

    It's a fucking Suzuki Swift ! Fuck your "Erector sets", "Sega Genesis" and "Geo Metros", they are fucking Meccanos, Sega Megadrives and Suzuki Swifts.

  2. who cares ? on Google to Blur Sensitive India Sites · · Score: 5, Funny

    Terrorists will just ask their computer to "enhance"

  3. Focus please ! on Viacom Demands YouTube Remove Videos · · Score: 1

    Youtube is not a good place for TV episodes (which I think are legitimate to leak on the internet as 99% of the planet cannot get them from the air). Limited resolution, no easy download.

    Focus, fellow pirates. Bittorrent is the place to put TV episodes.

  4. Does this mean on Mass Storage For Phones · · Score: 1

    Does this mean we'll have to put our cell phones in lockers when entering churches ?

    0a) rename your BT identity to something not recognizeable
    0b) download grossout.jpg, rename to "ctu.mp3"
    1) detect someone who might have a BT phone, in a crowded place.
    2) send "ctu.mp3". Many people will accept this unconditionally, even if manually
    3) enjoy the recipent's face.

  8. Re:Bit Torrent on Fox Subpoenas YouTube Over Content · · Score: 1
    Odds are this guy was just a moron /
    This is at least the second time in days content pirates are called morons. Yesterday it was about WGA pirates being morons.

    We are anything but morons: in the end, YOU paid for our copy of windows which only cost us the dollar a day our broadband connection cost us and which we needed anyway for our porn.

    Same for this video (which as a Western European won't be able to watch in original version for another two years when they release the DVD) : I was able to see it days after it was aired in the US.

    Call the pirates evil, this is an acceptable way to qualify someone who does not pay for contents, but puhlease, don't call the people for whom you paid the contents morons, YOU are. And we are glad you did: it made the production break even so more episodes/updates will be made.

    I was looking for the "Isohunt sucks anyway, I always use xyz instead" thread, look like I found it.

    Depends where. In Belgium, being fluent in French, Dutch and English is an extra way to get a job, but don't expect to be paid more.

    The 3G standard does of course require a front camera.
    No it does not. Have a look at the Nokia 6630. Have a look at the PCMCIA 3G interfaces for laptops.

    Furthermore, I'd take the general knowledge base of an average American any day of the week over someone who grew up in a country where it's 'common knowledge' that sleeping with a virgin can cure AIDS.
    A majority of Americans don't believe in Evolution.
  14. You USians (-1, Flamebait) on 'Plentiful' Non-Embryonic Stem Cells Found · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    You USians with your outdated debates on death penalty, stem cells, abortion or the reality of global warming would amuse us if you were not the sad bible thumping, violent, polluting people you are.

  16. Re:Irony of hammering m$ and then requiring it. on Council of the EU Says "We Cannot Support Linux" · · Score: 1

    Not so contradictory (fyi contradiction and irony are not the same).

    The EU is pissed not because MS (since 1999 it's officially no longer funny to say m$) has billions ad thy want it. The EU is pissed because MS has a monopoly and abuses it on different levels.

    WMV is not even a domain in which MS has a monopoly. See QT, RAM, mp4.

  17. Re:I, for one... on Lost Gmail Emails and the Future of Web Apps · · Score: 1

    Why was the "I, for one" necessary ? Are YOU an important part of the FOSS community ? If yes, is your opinion at odds with the FOSS community ?

  21. Re:Notability isn't enforced strictly enough on Our Love/Hate Relationship With Wikipedia · · Score: 4, Insightful
    Popular culture is a significant problem. There are far too many Star {Wars|Trek|Gate} articles. There's a Wikipedia article for every Star Wars comic book. For a while, someone was trying to create one for each character in each story in each comic book, but that was beaten back.
    How better would the Wikipedia be if these articles were not present ? That's the point of an Internet encyclopedia : information that is not pertinent to YOU does not hurt financially or otherwise by just being there.

    If some music nerd wants me to know John Lennon was wearing green socks on 4 April 1967 when he recorded A Day in the Life, it's not going to change dramatically the price of the Wikipedia. Heck, if I clicked through the hierarchy until I reached the article "Clothing of John Lennon during the SPLHCB session of 4 April 1967", I may be the only person who ever clicks the links, so it's virtually costless.

    What if that data was actually in the "Great Britain" article because the music nerd thinks everyone who is interested in Great Britain should know about the colour of the socks of John Lennon during each recording session of Sergeant Pepper ? Guess what, YOU can edit the page to remove it (most authors won't actually mind) or move it to a more appropriate page (most authors would understand).

    IMO there is no such thing as too much information.
