  1. Re:Am i the only one that finds this disturbing? on Apple's School Days are Numbered · · Score: 1

    Moderately ironic, yes. That you find it disturbing is more disturbing then the placement of a M$ ad in a computer publication.

    STFU McNealy. We heard yuo the first time.

    ... now they own the Internet! The chumps that pay them for using Linux are just putting out a honeypot for every scam artist in the world.

    "The main problem is that the American 50 hour work week is destroying the social structure."

    That would explain why social conditionsfor the chronicly unemployed are so great.

    I just had a couple of eggs over easy and #browns with my french-fried steak.

    "What would you think about that if you were an actual Iraqi, reading /. on the Internet?"

    In Saddam's Iraq, the Internet read you.

  9. Q: Is the assistant unclear on the concept? A: No on Useful Devices for Audio Weblogging? · · Score: 2, Funny

    The assistant was tasked to make the candidate more visible on the web. The assistant got the candidate on Slashdot.

  10. Re:Not exactly. on Howard Dean to Guest Blog for Lawrence Lessig · · Score: 1

    Exactly. We make bilateral treaties with decent countries that allow for such things. Canada is a decent country with a compatible justice system.

  11. Not on Howard Dean to Guest Blog for Lawrence Lessig · · Score: 1

    First a President who believes the ICC trumps the Bill of Rights has to get elected. Then 51 Senators who believe the ICC trumps the Bill of Rights has to get elected. Not bloody likely.

  13. Re:People Robots on "Augmented Reality" For the Assembly Line · · Score: 2, Insightful

    "I can see a day when people will be fired for putting in four screws in counter-clockwise when the labled instructions told them to do it clockwise."

    I think you're being a bit optimistic.

    I've been around Union plants most of my life. From managements point of view, it's probably better to have the wheel fall of a car because it was screwed in wrong than put up with a strike for firing the guy who did it.

  14. Re:Open Source: serious problem here on OSI Announces Open Source Awards · · Score: 1

    I guess it just depends what you use the system for. I build web sites at work on a W2K system and at home on a Linux system. The work box specs at three times the speed of my home system. There is no question that I'm more productive on my home system. Regarding your hd to hd file transfer problem, that's not standard. Something's broke on that machine.

  15. Horrible on OSI Announces Open Source Awards · · Score: 1

  18. Unpossible on USS Ronald Reagan Commissioning Tomorrow · · Score: 1

    We have a big navy and there's only so many synonyms for whoop-ass.

    By the way, we have a USS Churchill and there would be no serious objection and a great deal of support for naming a ship the USS Margaret Thatcher.

    They need to change the name.

  22. Count the Lawyers on Linux vs. SCO: The Decision Matrix · · Score: 1

    Tech2 INAL so why should a PHB take his advice about SCO's lawsuit? Rather than make the case yourself, point out that lawyers for IBM, Sony, Hitachi, Phillips, Oracle, HP, Dell and many other large humorless firms remain unimpressed with SCO's case.

  23. Re:More than visual fluff on Menu Shadows in GTK2 · · Score: 1

    Yet another life improved by shadow technology!

  24. More than visual fluff on Menu Shadows in GTK2 · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Shadows provide a visual clue that should speed up the users analysis of what's happening on the desktop. This isn't earth shattering news but is an improvement.
