As of this moment, my question to Mr. Wheaton: What's it like to do a/. interview where the top 10 questions were modded at level 2? (the only 5s are "funny").

What a very conservative argument! If you argue like this and agree it's valid, you are conservative. If this isn't a good argument for you, you are an Enlightenment Liberal (which includes Bush "Conservatives").
And here I thought I was the only one who measured volume in units of 1992 Honda Accord Engines' Displacement Worths.
Well, that's the car I drive and it has a 2100 CC engine, and I needed a nice easy image. Of course, for those of us who aren't car junkies, 2100 CC of displacement doesn't mean a lot, but if an engine has it, it must be a lot!

Slashdot began it's rapid slide downhill once they all moved away from Holland and let Timothy run amok with Your Rights Online, which simply turned Slashdot from a decent science and IT geek site into a whiny under-18's bitch fest about topics the posters barely understand. Bah.
It's America, the personal is the political. And GNU idealizes the subset: the technical is the political (use GNU software as a blow for liberty!). It gets old after a few years, but while you're young and stupid, it's energizing.

Probably on skid row drinking Thunderbird out of a brown paper bad, or in Hell's Angels.
You talk about computing like an evangelical talks about their conversion.

No! Valve has got a lot of nerve trying to get the business of decadent self-absorbed lazy blobs!
The law of unintended consequences has not been repealed, as far as I know.
To be replaced by other rats swarming up from the bilges.

Yes, it's captitalism that's doing it. And here I thought it was the Martians! Par for the /. course.
Or even better: a BB Gun.
And not only that, check my sig. Hoist by my own petard!

People who have an interest in healthy communities think Wal*Mart is bad. Among libertarians Wal*Mart is hailed as a gift from the FreeMarket god.
