  1. Windows syndrome. on Walking Through SkyOS 5.0 Beta · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Why there is always somebody that comes with a screenshot when here is an announcement about a fscking Operating System?

    I would be more interested in talking about the internals, not the eye candy (which is not part of the OS in any serious OS anyway).

  2. Pray tell me Batman.... on Biometrics in the Workplace · · Score: 1

    Why do they want to know at what time do people arrive and leave to the working place?

    Here you go, in case you are puzzled:

    You can't trust people to do the right thing, so must treat them like children or animals.

    They should have pay docked by the minute if they're late. Of course if they're a early that time doesn't count, and of course if at the end of the day it takes them longer to finish than the hours you are paying them for, them that must be their fault so they shouldn't be paid for that either.


    Compris vous?

    TO me that addresses exactly the point raised by the original question.

  3. Don't blame your parent post... on Biometrics in the Workplace · · Score: 1

    ... for your company's lack of imagination and creativity.

    And obvious lack of humour and iron...y.

  4. Just what we need. on Novell Releases SCO Letters · · Score: 1

    An idiot compelling people to harrass another idiot.

    Can you spell "illegal"?

  5. Oh I see. on SCO Files Response To Demand For Evidence · · Score: 1

    Are you saying that it is OK the brake the system if you are small fry.

    How comforting to investors. Just what we need after ENRON.

  6. No. on Hitchhiker's Guide Film Reports · · Score: 1

    Mexican, sorry guys, you think you are the most humorous people in the whole Universe, but sometimes one is just left with a feeling like "what the fuck!?"....

  7. Dilbert is funny, witty. on Hitchhiker's Guide Film Reports · · Score: -1, Troll

    The Office is pretentious and boring. Is one of those things that only Brits get I guess.

  8. Nope. on Obtaining Replacement Parts for Your Laptop? · · Score: 1

    It was not *officially* replaceable. meaning you can destroy the critter in the process. You may be able to do something, that does not mean you should be doing it.

    Apple only recently started official battery replacements after it became patently obvious that not all batteries were as perfect and lost lasting as they hopped (and that the expensive toys the iPods are not disposable).

  9. Intentions. on SCO Responds to OSDL Legal Aid Announcement · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Nevill Chamberlain was an honest persong thath allowed his hopes to cloud his judgment.

    Darl, well, is Darl.

    Enough said for the Indiaphobes around here.

  11. Curious... on HP Working With Apple To Add WMA Support To iPod · · Score: 1

    I have here on my good-people list for daring to state the blantantly obvious.

    What a pitty so many people here prefer to put head on rear.

  12. By then... on MIT Technology Review Slams IPv6 · · Score: 1

    .... all the starts will be dead and there will not be enough energy to send a ping form one place to the other (since all matter will be so widely dispersed that the energy available to you would not be enough to transmit anything to the nearest place).

    Or the big crunch would be on its way, in which case exahustion of the IP address space would be the latest of our priorities....

  13. leatherman tool on Airport and Foot Friendly Trade Show Shoes? · · Score: 1

    I just can't believe it.

    The US goverment is forcing foreign-based fligths to be cancelled. In those flights I have seen people having to leave nail files or clippers behind.

    In the mean time in the US you can take this kind of tools on the cabin.

    Now, were not all the flights on 911 internal flights? The US goverment knows were the weak points are (or should know) but seems to be commiting the same basic mistakes while pretending to be though...

  14. Don't argue with me! on First Look At Intel Tejas & Socket 775 · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I am a Mexican that has been many time in Spain.

    Believe me, I do know how the Spaniards write Texas (Tejas, tyup, that is tiles) and Mexico (Mejico). This is the source of regular linguistical controversy.

  15. If Google does that.... on SCO Approaches Google About Linux Licenses · · Score: 1

    ... it would dissapear from my bookmarks.

    As simple as that.

    They would monumentaly stupid to enter in any dealings with this "company" before the legal status of their claims is fully clarified.

    In other words I would publish an open letter saying: "Dear SCO, STFU and put up or die".

    More less in those terms.

  16. Tejas? on First Look At Intel Tejas & Socket 775 · · Score: 3, Informative

    He, that is the Spanish (as written on Spain) for Texas.

    The Spaniards write Mexico as Mejico.

    Just a tidbit for your amusement.

  18. Are you the same guy... on Touch Screen Voting Trouble in Florida · · Score: 1

    ... that always comes with this rubish?

    Both are not mutually exclusive you know, at least nominally the US is both, go and check a dictionary.

    Now, if you are talking about the spirit of the current US political system, then you Sir are relatively more perceptive that your co-nationals.

  19. And what would be wrong with that. on Touch Screen Voting Trouble in Florida · · Score: 1

    Simple, accountable.

    Honestly, your reliance on machines at the moment of casting the ballot is a problem of the system.

    When you have a system this simple you need to recour to real acts of thugery in order to taint the elections.

  20. Re:Florida voting on Touch Screen Voting Trouble in Florida · · Score: 1

    In Mexico the disabled voter can bring somebody they trust to cast their vote that is naturally a cross in a piece of paper.

  21. You are failing to acknowledge the real issues. on Touch Screen Voting Trouble in Florida · · Score: 1

    Namely:

    1.- If there is no way to acurately audit the vote, the system is unusable. That applies to raising a hand on a tribal vote or in the other technological extreme to this system. A good vote system should recognize when a voter fucked up or should be completely unambigous about the choice taken even if this is reached by mistake.

    2.- If a user (voter) does not follow the instructions that means the instructions are not clear enough for that person. The system is broken, not the person. The voting system is there to serve people, no the other way around.

  24. You would have a point... on Bush To Announce Manned Trip To Moon, Mars · · Score: 1

    ... if the US was not blocking free fair trade.

    You mock international solidarity as communism and then hint that people in other places don't want to better themselves, nevertheless you are ready to whine if you experience the unbalances of capitalism.

    Cm'on, better yourself, embrace capitalism fully. Or are you a closet socialist when the tide is against you?

  25. You are cutting on the worng place. on Bush To Announce Manned Trip To Moon, Mars · · Score: 1, Insightful

    The US is going to spend 75 billion on Iraq's reconstruction.

    That could have been avoided (or the burden shared) if the US was serious about international law and cooperation.

    And what is the US defense budget again? Don't know, but is more than what the next 10 more dispendious countries put all together.
