  1. Re:Its a great way to move to management. on What is the Value of an MBA to a Techie? · · Score: 1

    Last year I finally had the opportunity to fire the office "Open Source Zealot" - the guy who wasted everyone's time complaining how "Outlook is insecure" and "I only use Linux on my notebook computer".

    That was me you jerk!

    Just kidding...but I bet he is hiding around here somewhere....=)

    Are you stupid?

  4. Re:Your forgot a few... on Sun, Jxta And Promises · · Score: 1

    1050? Lord it took a long time for them to make it into the home.... (yes..I know it was a typo)

  5. Re:Slight Ot, but... on Could Square Re-Dub the "Final Fantasy" Movie? · · Score: 1

    FF7 and 8 aren't the only Finaly Fantasy games out there...(obviously)..each game doesn't relate to it's previous one...why should the movie relate to any of the games?

  6. Re:LOL! on Microsoft's GPL IPv6 Web Server. Not Really. · · Score: 1

    What are you talking about and how is this MS bashing? How did you get moderated up to +4 Informative?? From what I can tell, it's a GPL'ed webserver that MS modified to use IPv6.....it's rather interesting...how's it MS bashing again?

    Seems like anyone who bashes the integrity of the /. editors these days gets moderated up...bah

  7. Re:I don't get it... on OpenQuartz: A GPLed 3D Shooter · · Score: 1

    Perhaps he's ...gasp! not that!...."joking"?

  8. Re:Make the world a better place... on Scientology Critic Flees U.S. Over Usenet Posts, Pickets · · Score: 2

    I'd go after the Carriers and/or Archons myself...they do more damage.

  9. Re:Credit where credit is due on Linux Grabs World Record For TPC-H Benchmark · · Score: 1

    I hate Windows as much as the next guy here on /. But NTFS is journaling. Get your facts straight.

  10. Re:zip file support on Rivals Upset At Windows XP Features · · Score: 1

    with BitchX for windows though it seems to have the odd problem of suspending when it's not the foreground application...so if you go do something else for a given amount of time then poof...you get disconnected. VisualIRC was a good contender for mIRC though...don't think/know if it's being developed anymore though..who cares when you have BitchX on FreeBSD though huh? =)

  11. Re:POS? on Developing Attractive non-GUI Apps for Unix? · · Score: 1

    there there..it'll be ok

  12. Re:XML based IM will have the same problems as HTM on France Telecom To Support Jabber · · Score: 1

    While your point may be true, it has nothing to do with that fact that the transport for this system uses XML. If you think that them using XML in any way affects this then you really don't understand what XML is. It's not "another HTML" as many seem to think.

  13. Re:BO a legit admin tool? on Cult of the Dead Cow Going P2P? · · Score: 1

    Though I've never used it, I'd bet that Back Office shows up in at *least* the add/remove programs list, or the start menu. I don't mean you know know if/when it's running. I mean you don't even know it's installed (unless you run a virus scanner..).

  14. BO a legit admin tool? on Cult of the Dead Cow Going P2P? · · Score: 1

    Sure, the functionality it provides IS useful, but you can't call a program which DELIBERATLY hides itself from users a "legit admin tool". It's a trojan, and it was meant to be a trojan.

  15. Re:click the left button twice in rapid succession on A Home For The Technologically Inept · · Score: 1

    You asked this once didn't you? Come on...admit it.

  16. Re:Businessmen, Taco's edge on Agenda Delayed Again · · Score: 1

    The Palm is simple and elegant if you don't have to program it, if you stick to its standard applications, and if you are happy with exactly the kind of screen and UI it gives you. If you go beyond its basic four functions, it become increasingly messy and limited.

    Umm...I don't own a Palm so I may be confused, but I remember reading and even seeing in several places LOTS of software (free and open-source no less) for the Palm...someone help me out with a url here...

  17. Re:Sounds hot on What 1.7Ghz Is Like · · Score: 1

    Read the article maybe?

  18. Re:Uh, consoles usually always lose money on No X Box for Xmas? · · Score: 1

    I think he was saying it's good to make Microsoft lose money on the console...put linux on it and never buy games from them so they never get their money back....That seemed implied to me...maybe just my interpetation of it though....

  19. Re:MS can release whenever they like... TROLL on No X Box for Xmas? · · Score: 1

    it didn't/doesn't live up to the hype

    Does anything EVER live up to the 'hype'? Isn't that why it's called hype in the first place.

    I read the article. Where does the author imply megabyte?

    He's saying USB 2.0 is good for Intel. Firewire is bad for them.
