  1. Re:meth on Drug Testing Entire Cities at Once · · Score: 3, Interesting

    there is such a thing as being a functional meth addict. i was for close to 10 years before i decided to stop using. held down a job as a computer programmer the entire time, even started and ran a record store for 3 years as a hobby.

    yes, i used every day but i definitely used more heavily on the weekends.

  5. Re:BootCamp on The Best Mac OS X Software Tools · · Score: 1

    it's pretty obvious he was trolling the guy who trolled with his "As such, you simply can't have "top X products" for an entire OS. If on Mac it's not the same, it's that much sadder." comment.

  6. Re:police said on Hans Reiser in Court Today · · Score: 1

    actually, we just use the two extremely good turntables we already own, the expensive mixer we already own & the computer we ALREADY OWN to convert our vinyl to mp3.

  10. Re:Oh please on Duke Nukem Forever Update · · Score: 1

    Because of this, the instant it's released, a million people will rush to buy the game just because of the hype. a million people might download it for free but i seriously doubt it will sell well.

  14. Re:That depends on the course work on What Kind of Tablet PC to Buy? · · Score: 1

    studying in arts: make shit up and defend it as your "opinion".

    get real, studying for a true math course (who remembers number theory or group theory?) isn't memorizing acronyms. intensive proofs was the order of the day for those finals.

    biology courses, on the other hand ...

  15. Re:What a dick on BSD For Linux Users · · Score: 1

    i'll bite.

    separate your content and presentation. always.

    from http://www.w3.org/MarkUp :

    (in reference to color, font, margins, etc)
    HTML is not designed to be used to control these aspects of document layout.

    also, css can be used to easily make pages accessible to those with disabilities. also from http://www.w3.org/MarkUp:

    The Web is a tremendously useful tool for the visually impaired or blind user, but bear in mind that these users rely on speech synthesizers or Braille readers to render the text. Sloppy mark-up, or mark-up which doesn't have the layout defined in a separate style sheet, is hard for such software to deal with. Wherever possible, use a style sheet for the presentational aspects of your pages, using HTML purely for structural mark-up.

    basically, html wasn't designed to be carry information for both presentation and content -- it was designed for content only. css was designed for presentation.

  16. Re:Don't brush this aside. on Longhorn's Flash Killer? · · Score: 1

    i'd REALLY like an example of where a flash front end is "far superior to an HTML/JavaScript/CSS interface" for a website.
