  1. That's a Windows flaw. on Innovation on the Edge? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Nah, if M$ hadn't pulled their typical "embrace, extend, envelop" on ISO-8859-1, this would not have been a problem.

  3. Re:They are employed by large corporations. on Why Do People Write Open Source Software? · · Score: 1

    Maybe. But you can compare my own project with ApplePC, the program it was designed to replace...it's slower, it doesn't emulate hard drives, it's a bit more demanding of the hardware, but it is more stable and more faithful to the goal, plus it's open source, so there are pros and cons to small projects that are "entirely redundant".

  8. Re:But is GPL compatible DRM possible? on Linus on DRM · · Score: 1

    Let's say you have a system that requires a signed bootstrap and kernel to operate. That may not necessarily mean the software that runs on top of that kernel needs to be signed, but I may be wrong?

    There's a couple times. First time's in Sailor Moon Super (after ep 110, sorry, I can't be more specific than that). It appears in *that* context to be a pun on "Messiah" (me-shi-ya). She says something that ends in a word that sounds like "urameshiya" and has this weird zombie-like aura and holds her arms limp. It's spooky, but she's a real ditz anyway ;)
