  1. as opposed to on MS Upgrades To Be Smaller And More Frequent · · Score: 1

    security-enhacing and non-pain-in-the-assing?

  2. Slumlord merger? on Microsoft to Buy Stake in AOL · · Score: 2

    wow, one big all-encompassing trailer park.

    far out

  3. I love my Tivo, but it sucks... on TiVo OS Update Adds Content Protection · · Score: 1

    in that they could give a damn about Mac users.

    we don't exist except to take our money.

    I was one who paid the extra $99 for the home networking shit, now it doesn't even work unless I use a hack from a 3rd party.
    (and no, they did not volunteer a rebate, nor provide one when asked for it)

    as soon as there is something to replace it, it's replaced

  4. Re:Promotion based on deeds on How About a Nice Game of Global Thermonuclear War? · · Score: 1

    appropriate a anonymous coward would support the main coward.

  5. MS should reciprocate on Dvorak on Microsoft Confusing the Market · · Score: 1

    MS should publish a story about how Dvorak confuses the computing public with his bouncing back between Ms shill and MS watchdog.

  6. Promotion based on deeds on How About a Nice Game of Global Thermonuclear War? · · Score: 1

    with the way this president stepped up to the plate Command and Control-wise with Katrina, it's only natural that he be given more authority.

    just wait till he realizes that TiVO doesn't stand for anything nuke-u-lar.

  7. still waiting on Ready For the Big Mac Virus? · · Score: 0, Troll

    this is getting boring. when does the fun start?

  8. looks like mail.app? on iPod nano, iTunes 5, iTunes Phone · · Score: 1

    huh?

    the screen shot that link followed is the same iTunes interface that's been in place since day one.

    now in the shot, the "browser" frame is turned off. maybe that's what made this look so "mailish"?

  9. DRM just the bad movies? on HighDef Content to Require New Monitors · · Score: 1

    this could be a great way to be sure to not sit through two hours of mindless idiocy. a world where you cannot render tom cruise is a much better place.

  10. Dr. It hurts when I do this on ZOTOB Not Quite as Bad as Expected? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    hard to feel sorry for the people still running windows, how many times does the car have to break down on the freeway before you trade the SOB in for something reliable?

    what is it called when you continue the same behavior and expect different results?

  11. Re:Convert to MS now and get it over with on Sun's Linux Killer Examined · · Score: 1

    means alot coming from a coward

  12. I want Pterrodactyls on Reintroduce Megafauna to North America? · · Score: 1

    that would be cool.

  13. Convert to MS now and get it over with on Sun's Linux Killer Examined · · Score: 1, Troll

    So lets just say that perhaps linux users switch to "free" solaris.

    then sun runs out of money yet again, and goes back to microsoft for more money. and then again. then the buyout.

    eventually all those "converts" are running MS Solaris.

    let the stampede begin?

  14. Re:Perl 9 is already out... on Perl 6 Now by Scott Walters · · Score: 1

    you had a small typographical error, I have corrected it below.....


    There is no reason to get so defensive about these things with the exceptions of Windows vs Linux (Linux) and Emacs vs Vi (Vi).

  15. rename the mountains? on Businesses To Be Censored on Use of Olympics · · Score: 1

    damn good thing the Olympic Mountain Range isn't visible from Whistler, then again, some are sure to be held in Vancouver.

  16. left out again on Zotob Worm Hits CNN and Goes Global · · Score: 1

    this is getting ridiculous.

    when are non-windows users going to get in on the fun?

    or is the fun actually in watching the knuckleheads fix their boxes, share their stories, re-infect each other, etc?

  17. spam from MS on MS Gets $7 Million From Spammer · · Score: 1

    my mail server rejects mail from microsoft.com a few times a month trying to use me as a relay.

    I roughly estimate it's costing me billions in lost revenue and mental anguish.

    maybe I have recourse?

  18. did they find my sock? on Yahoo Passes Google in Total Items Searched · · Score: 1

    cause that would rock.

  19. re-visit flat earth on Equal Time For Creationism · · Score: 1

    I think it's time that we put some religious tests to the silly notion that the earth revolves around the sun.

    and burning scientists that don't understand god's plan should also be re-introduced. it's simply not enough to ostricize them.

    hundreds of years of heretical science can finally be subjected to god's wrath.

  20. corpse counting? on RFID Tags To Track Foreigners, Identify Dead · · Score: 1

    stick an rfid tracker on me so someone can scan the scene of the explosion and ID me?

    no thanks, find my teeth, lazy boy

  21. not until gates converts on Spyware Removal: Drop PC in Dumpster · · Score: 0, Troll

    his porn to cd

  22. spoiled on What is Mainframe Culture? · · Score: 1

    Mainframers are a sad lot, stuck with all those tools that actually work, and consistently.

  23. neck and neck? on Linux and Windows Security Neck and Neck · · Score: 2, Funny

    so was Linux standing on it's head when they lined them up to compare?

  24. Re:let em build their own on U.N. To Govern Internet? · · Score: 1

    thank you denmark, sweden and the uk. now make yourself useful again and join us in telling the UN to butt the hell out.

  25. Re:let em build their own on U.N. To Govern Internet? · · Score: 1

    the net is US created, US Built and it shows though and through.....BECAUSE IT WORKS.

    I imagine a "Euronet" would have been a war zone by now requiring US widgets to come in and push back the german widgets.

    again, there is nothing stopping the UN from starting their own internet. but then they are busy saving the people of Rwanda, Sudan, etc. oh wait, nevermind.
