  1. Re:Borg on Enterprise Getting New Aliens, Hairdos, Weapons · · Score: 1

    The theory is that there an infinite number of alternate timelines. Every possible variation would exist.

    By definition, messing with the past would create an alternate future. If you returned to a changed future it would not be your timeline.

    ...yes, that is a flushing sound.

    However, as a Bush supporter, I heartily recomend you all vote for nader.

    What's so cool about a swivelling screen?

    Yeah, Kazaa is good if you are looking for something specific, but the content gets stale fast. There doesn't seem to be much new stuff added.

    Usenet is where you go for your daily dose. Combine a nice binary harvester with broadband and it's like drinking from a firehose!

    (yes, your homophobic humor is quite amusing)

  10. Another Fucking Dupe! on The Unix-Haters Handbook Online · · Score: 3, Funny

    You know, the fucking dupes are getting so fucking bad it's not even fun making fun of Taco anymore.

    How about, whenever there is a REALLY bad dupe, change the poster to CowboyNeal. That way, you can pretend it's a joke instead of another amazinly stupid fuckup.

    With the dupes, trolls and all the fucking profanity, it's pretty fucking hard to get people to take fucking /. seriously.

  11. Vapor? on Fully-functional Miniature Notebook Planned · · Score: 1

    Doesn't it seem there's another handheld, x86 compatible bit of vapor about every year or so?

  12. Re:Graphics Capabilites on Fully-functional Miniature Notebook Planned · · Score: 1

    If it's got enough horsepower to run XP, it should run about any emulator. If they include any half way decent 3D chipset this thing could be a really cool $1200+ handheld game.

    For now I'll just stick with my GP32.

  13. Re:What is this MSNBC? on Bombing the Moon for Water · · Score: 1

    Did you try finding your own facts? I am yet to hear any doubters come up with *ANYTHING* claiming my statements were false (except their whining).

    I heard my original statements in passing on TV news. I looked up links confirming them using google.

    Come up with something to counter them and we'll talk.

    BTW, I sure as hell would believe something in a conservative column before most of the tripe liberals spread. Conservatives get called on their facts so generally have sources. Liberals don't get called, so they don't do their homework.

    As has been demanded of me: state your sources.

  15. Re:Nationalize local phone access! on Phone Companies Bill Public for Nonexistent Equipment · · Score: 2, Insightful

    For anything realistic to relating to lower taxes to happen, spending has to be cut too.

    The actual, Constitutionally mandated functions of government are very limited. About 90% of what government does is unconstitutional. Some of it is good, lots of it is a waste at best.

    If people really want these expenditures the Constitution should be amended.

  16. Re:Nationalize local phone access! on Phone Companies Bill Public for Nonexistent Equipment · · Score: 1

    Perhaps CA needs a new revolt? With some teeth this time. Cutting taxes is not enough, you have to put real limits on the legislatures ability to raise more taxes or voter mandated cuts are useless.

  17. Re:Nationalize local phone access! on Phone Companies Bill Public for Nonexistent Equipment · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You're hitting all around it, but still missing the point.

    If people got hit with *HUGE* tax bills, say around the end of October, the income tax would either go away or be largely reduced.

    Convenience is the enemy of tax reform. Nothing radically changes unless many people get very pissed off.

    Yeah, copying and pasting links breaks sometimes.

    Try using google, that's where I got them.

    "Al Jazeera West" *IS* a bit extreme, but when countering the brainless, anti-US, foaming-at-the-mouth, euro-centric, quai-socialist bullshit that passes for the norm here, it's pretty tame.

    Being Conservative (or even moderate) on /. is fun. It's kind of like playing Doom at nightmare setting, without a mouse...

    No, it's the BBC, aka "Al Jazeera West".

    You know, the "Saddam Network", where even their reporters in the field could not believe the crap their leftest staff was putting out.

    It's a shame, I used to look to the BBC for unbiased reporting. Now they make CNN look like Fox News.

    And now the BBC head honcho is bitching that U.S. networks are biased. Talk about pots and kettles...
