If lyrics.ch uses banner ads, like they used to, I will have no problem with it. If, however, they start charging users a per-song fee just to look at lyrics (which is stupid, and which is *exactly* what the music industry would do), I will never, ever use it. Even Microsoft found out that charging people for online content just doesn't work (c.f.: Slate is once again free.)

I didn't think anyone would, but it was worth a shot anyway.:) (I just saw Fruvous in concert on Jan 2, and again on Feb 6. Exceptional musicians, and funny as hell to boot.)

The point the person attempted to make was that PPro processors were terribly powerful. When compared to other, same-era processors, they weren't, you fucking dullard.

I've found that, for example, the stock OSS Lite driver that comes with the kernel sources works fine with my Gravis Ultrasound Ace (piece of shit card, I know), but, on the other hand, the Ultra drivers (there's a website somewhere for them, I forget where it is) tend to skip a lot when I mess around in netscape. I think it's a driver/buffer size issue. I've noticed this with Windows machines too.

Every time a new piece of any sort of hardware is released, people never fail to ask, "cool! does it run linux?", amidst much slobbering and buck-toothed stupid grinning. I have to wonder, if any of these people are actually serious, if they're stupid enough to wonder the same about, say, a 900 MHz cordless phone.

It seems to me that the only thing forcing Microsoft to license its source would do would be to give them the green light to "embrace and extend" as many "features" (read: products) into their operating systems as they wanted, as long as they showed others the final product. How does this preserve competition, even before you consider that a source license would probably cost quite a bit?
I'm all for punishing Microsoft, believe me, but I think this isn't really much of a punishment.

And screw all you whiners who can't handle me, or others, "bashing" them. They've been incredibly stupid these past few weeks (moreso than usual, even), and deserve all the derision that's being heaped onto them.

I just saw an article a couple weeks ago that laid out average admin salaries by OS category. AS/400 admins made the most, followed by UNIX, followed by Linux, which for some reason had its own category separate from UNIX. The last on the rung? You guessed it, NT. To believe otherwise, when all the info I've ever seen, both online and in trade journals and through anecdotal reports from coworkers supports my claim, would be absolutely retarded.
You're not retarded, are you?

Check this one out. It looks like they plan(ned?) on using WebTV for a little more than web surfing.
IRIX 6.2 and 6.5, Communicator 4.x. Also does it on my linux and FreeBSD boxes at home.

Raising your child is not my, the government's, or anyone else's responsibility but your own, sir. I do not wish to have my freedoms encroached upon simply because you're too busy to properly care for your son. If you stop and think about it for a while, you too will realise what a stupid statement you made.

If you knew much about the history of Intel/M$, you would realize that the "Wintel" duopoly is a strained relationship, at best. Most people don't seem to, though.

Yeah, and it took 9100 of the little fuckers to best machines by SGI that used about 1/10th as many processors. Real powerful stuff.
