    I love it. My favourite popup is after you install a program, and you get the little box:

    Uh, no, I mean "spelt," the past tense and past participle of "spell."

    "Trouble" is about the only thing you spelt right in that post. "Illeterate?" Yikes...

    Well, other days, Slashdot slowly becomes a waste of your time...

  8. Re:I don't care on Fair Use is Not a Constitutional Right · · Score: 2

    The other night, I had a dream that, for some reason, took place on the bridge of the Enterprise and had a couple Disney characters in it. Those cultural franchises has taken root in my subconscious. Can I make a movie depiction of my dream now?

    No.

    Can I publish a story about it?

    Absolutely not. In fact, we have a team on the way to your house right now, to provide you with some much-needed reconditioning. What you may call "creativity," you will soon know by its proper term, PIRACY. Please leave the door unlocked.

    Love, your friends at Disney and Paramount.

    Licq has an encrypted session module. You have to use Licq at both ends though (not ICQ).

    I'm sorry to burst your super-31337 bubble, but I tend to doubt 80% of the population could install ANY OS. When was the last time you installed a commercial Linux distro? Ever? It's a fuck of a lot easier than Windows, I'll tell you that, not to mention only rebooting once is nice. Get off your high horse. Computers come with Windows installed - Joe User doesn't have to do anything.

  11. Re:Linux not really "free"? on Wall Street Embraces Linux · · Score: 5, Funny

    I hate that fucking quotation. If I never heard it again, it would be too soon. It's not like I boot into Windows, say "Computer, write the year-end fiscal report," and go golfing for the afternoon.

    As I have said before; try installing it on your favorite family member's system when they've been previously running Windows, and you'll end-up being disowned.

    You're drunk. Everyone I've installed Linux for has thanked me profusely for giving them a stable system. I'd probably get disowned if I tried to take it away from them at this point.

    You'd care if it was tied to something like, sayyyy, Passport, and let you shop online because you've "verified" your identity. But you'd never do anything like that, right? How 'bout your parents? Or your friends that don't know anything about why they should care?

    Because then the bad people from Audiotron and Yamaha would certainly steal it, and replace their systems with this one which is undoubtedly infinitely superior. Guess you'll just have to install Windows to use it.
