    FreeBSD's sh is not bash, you moron.

    i said that bash is also more or less bourne shell, NOT that FreeBSD's sh is bash. if you understand simple english/logic it would be a lot easier to talk to you, "you moron."

  4. *sigh* on A Real Bourne Shell for Linux? · · Score: 0

    and you're using the same rediculous exaggerating that makes your (stupidly obvious) comments overlooked... just 'cause bash takes (way) more memory than sh, does not mean you'll need to go out and get another DIMM (even as cheap as they are)... and if bash pushes you over the edge into needing more memory, then you were already over the edge as far as i'm concerned, cock-gobbler

    i use it everyday at work. i suggest looking around for things you want rather than just asking for them.

  7. oh my gosh on A Real Bourne Shell for Linux? · · Score: 0
    To top it all off, sh requires less memory; oh, and if you want to say "memory is cheap", why don't you just install win XP?

    that's the dumbest thing i've ever heard... this compare the memory usage of WinXP and bash is rediculous...

  11. AthlonEP on AthlonXP Released · · Score: 0

    They seem to call it Extended Performance (isn't that AthlonEP then?)

    If Extended Performance was EP, then Extensible Markup Language would be EML. XML sounds better because the "X" is pronounced "Ex", which is the first sound in "Extensible". "E" is pronounced "Ee", which is not the first sound in Extensible". For the same reason, XP sounds better than EP.

  12. Re:pronunciation on New Financing And Fewer Staff @ SuSE · · Score: 0

    Um, there is no rule of thumb in speaking German that "s" turns to "z"... perhaps you are confused with the "w" to "v" notion. However, your "technical" history of John Philip Sousa was stunning...

    Anyway, straight from the chameleon's mouth is the following:

    It should be pronounced like "Soose". The "U" sounds like the "oo" in "moose", the last "e" is spoken like the "a" in "at". But in general it is not very important to pronounce it correctly, as long as it is clear what you are talking about.

    I personally pronouce it "SOO-suh", and I speak German.

    you obviously didn't read the post you replied to.. i said that i too assume if came from a middle eastern terrorist group, but he should NOT assume since these people may be muslim that islam teaches you this is right... real muslims do not consider these people muslims.

  18. assumptions on U.S. Attack -- More Updates · · Score: 1

    Though I agree that most likely (just from sheer probability) an attack from the Middle Eastern area, I really think you should refrain from making assumptions about an entire religion. I am embarassed for you, as what you said was clearly from lack of education on the topic.

    My girlfriend comes from an Iranian family, an in know way was she "born and raised to think martyrdom after destroying civilian targets is the way to Mecca". Islam is not to blame here, terrorism is.

    *sigh*

    "With hundreds of thousands of copies of an OS that won't do Java..." blah blah blah

    And all those copies that won't do Java wouldn't've been doing Java if the JVM was included anyway. When people want to run the old Java things they used to, and can't, they'll get the damn JRE. They sure as hell would do that before finding a new product to replace it.

    When Johnny finds out that he can't play his favorite Java (*gasp*) Applet game, or talk in his favorite chat room, he'll get that JRE just as quickly as he downloads the newist (*gasp again*) Matchbox 20 song.

    As simple as that. Almost.

    NetBeans is a badass IDE, which I believe is about on the same scale as an office suite program. NetBeans is great, and runs great, and my box. Granted Java Swing apps needs lotsa memory, as there is no sharing between apps as of yet.

  23. Re:Really? on Java To Overtake C/C++ in 2002 · · Score: 1

    quite possibly one of the most rediculous comments i've read to date :) java was not designed to do replace ASM or C for things like kernels. it is better a replacement for C++ in user-space (notice i didn't say client-side :) ) apps... a cross platform kernel? doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.. it should also be noted that java as a LANGUAGE is not slow... the VM concept (which enables great crossplatformability (is that a word) among other things) is the reason for the slowdown
