  1. It is better ... on 60 Years of Business Computing Started With Tea Shops · · Score: 1

    It is better to go 3 days without tea, than a day without gcc.
    -- Ancient chinese secret.

  2. Real men use ... on Linux Mint: the New Ubuntu? · · Score: 2

    Gentoo! You know its true.

  3. Re:They found the farts of God! on Pristine Big Bang Gas Found · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Really ... a supreme all powerful all knowing being, if one does/did exist, could certainly have created our entire observable universe, and all the laws of physics, inside a fish bowl on its coffee table for amusement. Science is indeed interesting, and useful, but only a fool claims to know for a fact, whether or not, a supreme does exist. A wise man understands and admits he does not know, because it is not possible to know, until such time as it is possible to know, if that time ever comes. In summary ... you aren't special, and you don't know the unknowable.

  4. Re:oblg xkcd on How Is Technology Changing the Brain? · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't say the behavior of relying on search engines is new. Before the internet, web, and search engines, we collectively relied on books and libraries and card catalogs and reference tables / charts to find information we didn't deal with regularly.

  5. Being a software engineer, I now appreciate ... on How Is Technology Changing the Brain? · · Score: 1

    ... the attractively organic nature of the female body and its function more than ever. ;)

  6. Re:Yawn on What's Keeping You On Windows? · · Score: 1

    WINE does suck when it comes to the "just works" assessment.

  7. Re:A Conspiracy Theory for your enjoyment. on China Telecom Mulls Entry Into US Telecoms Market · · Score: 1

    It did. Touche ;)

  8. Re:SIlly goose on Hamburg To Fine Facebook Over Facial Recognition Feature · · Score: 1

    You can order anti-facial recognition technology for your personal use and prevent this sort of thing from ever happening to you. I bought a 100 foot roll of anti-facial recognition technology for $3.00 at the local hardware store. Works great.

  9. Re:please read IBM and the Holocaust on Hamburg To Fine Facebook Over Facial Recognition Feature · · Score: 1

    Blaming IBM for the holocaust is a lot like blaming Carnot for the crime of arson. I suppose Volta is to blame for the BP oil spill, because he didn't personally connect his battery to the emergency failsafe system.

  10. Business ethics demands .... on Zynga To Employees: Surrender Pre-IPO Shares Or You're Fired · · Score: 1

    ... that you keep the stock they gave you ... because it's yours damn it. If you are fired because of it ... a 2 step process kicks in: 1. You put your personal belongings ( which looks like a set of backup tapes ) in a box and walk out holding your head high and ... 2. You hire Gloria Alred and claim the CEO sexually abused you. During the discovery part of the court preceedings, instruct the Zynga attorneys to enter their credit card number to receive a .pdf version of the paperwork they requested. It's a win-win-win-win.

    You think consumers, who have cell phone subscriptions, and pay the bill, don't have jobs ? You think the consumers, with cell phones, and jobs, don't have business conversations and connections ? You think the network call graph between parties doesn't reveal social group interactions ? Think again.

  12. Re:Please, please, please do this!!! on China Telecom Mulls Entry Into US Telecoms Market · · Score: 3, Funny

    Move to China ... wish granted.
