  1. Ahh geez... on U.S. Sides with Record Labels Over DMCA Subpoena Powers · · Score: 1
    Verizon: Ha haaa! You da man! Shall I zip it for ya?
    I knew it was only a matter of time before this degenerated into subtle accusations of homosexual activities between certain parties...
  2. "We've got their attention." on Firebird Name Debate Enters a New Stage · · Score: 1

    Now... in this situation, I can't help but think that's a bad thing for them.

    It's like getting the attention of the Mafia by beating the crap out of a few of their guys...

  3. Re:"Interesting" My Foot on Firebird Name Debate Enters a New Stage · · Score: 5, Insightful
    Using this same logic, shouldn't Mozilla switch their name since FirebirdSQL used it first? Prior art and all...
    Using this same logic, shouldn't FirebirdSQL switch their name since Pontiac used it first? Prior art and all...
  4. Re:Umm... on Pennsylvania Refuses to Disclose Banned Website List · · Score: 1

    They take over the ISPs...

  5. Confused... on Former Intel Employee 'Disappeared' by U.S. · · Score: 1
    So perhaps he is somewhat willingly hanging out in solitairy. Note that he's not in general population, perhaps that is why.
    What you're suggesting is more akin to "protective custody" than solitary confinement. It seems pretty clear to me that he is no way under any kind of protective custody...
  6. Beautiful, isn't it? on Snag the Red Hat 9 ISOs, via Cash or BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    Who cares about the future anyway? We want it yesterday, and we want it free! /me sighs.

  7. Cairo, Egypt (I believe) on Web Site Hacks Rise as War Rages in Iraq · · Score: 1

    I saw video of their so-called "anit-war protest." Is it just me, or were these people fighting more than the coalition troops in Iraq?

  8. Re:How quickly we forget... on Europe Heads for the Moon in July · · Score: 1

    Ahh, yes... You are correct. Stupid me. Heh.

  9. How quickly we forget... on Europe Heads for the Moon in July · · Score: 1
    Anyway, with US short a shuttle [...]
    Correction: The U.S. is short two shuttles...
  10. Re:Are record companies execs so clueless... on New Computer Program Determines "Hitability" · · Score: 1
    [...] if a computer program can do the job what the hell are they being paid to do?
    Decide who to sue next. Then again, I heard they were working on a computer program for that, too.
  11. The "heat death" of music? on New Computer Program Determines "Hitability" · · Score: 1
    The tendency for all music in the world to evolve toward a state of inert uniformity.
    Well, I for one don't like the idea that entropy exists even in the music industry...
  12. Netscape 4.7 on Mozilla Now Even Includes The Kitchen Sink · · Score: 1
    The about:mozilla egg went all the way back to the Netscape 4.x family; possibly earlier, too(?).

    In Netscape 4.7, it said:
    "And the beast shall come forth surrounded by a roiling cloud of vengeance. The house of the unbelievers shall be razed and they shall be scorched to the earth. Their tags shall blink until the end of days." -- from The Book of Mozilla, 12:10
  13. The bright side... on Toms Hardware Reviews 65 CPU's, Past & Present · · Score: 1

    Hoepfully they've got it out of their system already... I'd say that's an improvement.

  14. Re:Different Opinions on Satellite Hackers Charged Under DMCA · · Score: 1

    Your analogy is flawed. Spanish is a language; a method of communication. Encryption is not. At best, encryption is a method of protecting data.

    Translating from Spanish to English isn't illegal, because Spanish wasn't "developed" to protect the information that is being communicated.

  15. What are you talking about? on DALnet For Chatting, Not File Sharing · · Score: 1

    By "recent", he didn't mean "immediately following the announcement." I don't follow, nor have I ever used DALnet (I logged on once, and did a /list... bad idea), but I'm pretty sure these DDoS attacks have been going on for at least two months.

  16. Great Scott! on Kroger Testing Fingerprint Payment System · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    /me looks down at the Back to the Future Trilogy DVD he just got for Christmas.

    This is heavy.

  17. Re:*Sigh* on Nintendo's Playstation Settlement Bombshell (or not...updated) · · Score: 1

    Wow. Can't put anything past you...

  18. Re:voluntary censorship by TLD on Plans For New TLDs · · Score: 1

    Card scanners? Why not a simple username and password?

  19. Re:Ralskys House on Spammer Gets Spam Mailed · · Score: 1

    I know those are high-res pics, but don't focus on the plates... You'll noticed everything is "blurred out". It's obviously motion blur.

  20. Riiight... on Shocker: Despicable Conduct From Disney · · Score: 1

    Because we all know that people, regardless of their wealth, who represent other people, aren't really people at all...

  21. Heh... on DHTML Bug Found in Mozilla 1.2 · · Score: 1
    [...] just install Windows and click "Windows Update".
    ...and wait two months for the fix to be posted. ...or two months after you've already been slammed by the "feature".

    Meanwhile, Mozilla users need only wait a couple weeks, if that, for their fix. :)
  22. Why? on DHTML Bug Found in Mozilla 1.2 · · Score: 1

    Why is a bug in IE news?

  23. Same here, sorta... on Mozilla 1.2 Unleashed · · Score: 1

    I didn't start using Mozilla regularly until 1.0, but I, too, never noticed any problems with the articles on CNN.com.

  24. The real lesson... on Massive Two Towers Battle · · Score: 1
    The lesson? Objects are defined with certain attributes, and any new object defined in terms of an old one inherits all the attributes.
    The real lesson: Don't fuck with the kangaroos. You never know what they have hidden in those pouches.
  25. Nah. This is what *really* happens... on High Power RocketCam Videos · · Score: 1
