  1. This is a great idea! on Should Open Source Content Management Interoperate? · · Score: -1

    They could give it snappy names like "Open source Libraries and Extensions" (OLE) and "Content Openness Management" (COM). How could they lose???

  2. Next... on How Long Can The Free Services Stay Free? · · Score: 1

    After all of the services are pay, we'll have an organization arise that demands that the services be allowed to roam the web unfettered by man, free of any destructive corporate influence...

    Free the services!

  3. Re:Marooned Cosmonauts on Three Russian Space Shot Deaths-- Pre-Gagarin? · · Score: 1

    You and the skeptical colleague are both wrong.

    If you re-enter the atmosphere at too great an angle, you will burn the hell up.

    If you re-enter the atmosphere at too small an angle, you will skip like a stone off of the surface of the water.

    The angle is -6.2 deg +/- 1 deg between the vehicle trajectory and the Earth's horizon.

  9. You know... on Yahoo! To Start Selling Porn · · Score: 1

    I mean, it's terrible! Not one message here complained about how much I exploit pornography!

    I exploit it like no thing should ever be exploited! I use as my friend, nursemaid, life partner, lover, tramp, whore, mother, lawyer, ophthalmologist, and large animal veterinarian, and what does it get in return? NOTHING!!

    Is there no one who will stand up for the rights of the smutty mag, the lewd film, or the saucy jpeg? No one?

    Shame on you all!

    Swallow, swallow, swallow, sluuuuuuuuuuurp

  20. Re:Yup. It will be better. on Why 2002 Will Be Better Than 2001 · · Score: 1

    I think it will require a Matsushita Cyberdeck with associated cranial jack, a Dixie Flatline ROM Construct, and Bruce Scheneir's new Anti-ICE warez.

    Oh, and a little bit of Zen, too...

  21. Uptight... on Adam Hinkley's IP Hindsights · · Score: 1

    This doesn't like he's been able to shrug off this experience at all. He sounds pretty bitter to me. He ought to relax and go code for a pr0n site for a while, or something...
