  1. Linux is a cancer on Ballmer Calls Linux "A Cancer" · · Score: 5

    Linux is a cancer that is eating away at M$ profit margins.

  3. Re:I turn myself in! on MS Wants To Know Whose PC Is Windows-Free · · Score: 1

    Amen! I'll turn myself in for the grill...

  4. Re:Whatever happened to personal responsibility? on Gaming Companies Being Sued Over Columbine · · Score: 1

    I too worked for a school district for a number of years. Long before the rash of school shootings we had a computer club after school, the kids did some basic programming, "repaired" old PC's and played video games. Yup, Doom, Hexen and a litte Dark Forces. Oddly enough at that time the schools administrators had no problem with the games. In fact a school board member and several junior high teachers would stop by to play with the kids. I know it's had to wrap you mind around but nobody brough an AK-47 to school. Suing iD and others because video games are "bad" is like me suing Mexico because Taco Bell gives me gas...

  5. RIAA isn't worried on User-friendly Freenet · · Score: 2

    FreeNet's independence makes it even slower than gnutella. I'm not willing to wait 15 minutes for one track off a CD. However FreeNet is great for text/html goodies. Lots of good sci-fi and tech stuff waiting for the download. Maybe this front-end will encourage more nodes and speed the whole network up.
