  1. Everything Bagel on The Worst Foods to Eat Over a Keyboard · · Score: 1

    All those sticky little bits of garlic, onion, and salt and whatever that just fly right off the bagel as soon as you bite into one ... real nasty for keyboards.

  2. Re:i.e., don't click... on Linux Today Founder Calls for Boycott of Linux Today · · Score: 1

    Funny, my July 2004 copy of DDJ had a JAVA PROGRAMMING theme. It happens to be plastered all over the cover! You must have skipped directly to the Microsoft ads then maniacally ripped them out. Well I think you also threw away a bunch of other articles that didn't have much at all to do with Microsoft advertisments. Here are just a few of the articles you forgot to mention:

    Java Management Extensions
    Java's BIGDECIMAL
    JVM Profiler Interface
    Java & The OpenCable Application Platform
    Java Reflection & Smalltalk-like Method Dispatching
    C++ & The Perils of Double-checked Locking (Part 1)
    FORTRAN 2003
    GCJ & The Cygnus Native Interface

    Not to menion all the other regular non-ad features of the magazine that you ignored. I wonder why you missed them?

    Could it be because people like you just can't help but propagate lies?!

    ... crikey is right

  3. Lindos on Lindows Agreeing to Change Name · · Score: 1
    LinDOS?!

    Microsoft will probably go after them for that one too.

  4. Re:Several Moons on New Moon System Around Uranus · · Score: 1

    Don't forget, there are also rings around Uranus

  5. Re:Deja vu on Speculations on a Moon Colony · · Score: 1

    I think all the Americans that think colonizing Mars is a good idea should attempt to colonize the Gobi desert instead. It's alot like the surface of Mars ... BUT YOU CAN BREATH THE AIR!!! Cripes, if the Chinese are willing to go all the way to Mars instead of colonizing the wasteland in their own backyard then America should explore there and spend the money they'll save on better observatories and robotic probes.

  6. Why don't we all just call them on SCO Prepares To Sue Linux End Users · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Instead of endlessly repeating our distress over SCO's insanity on /. why not just pick up the phone and tell them why you think their extortion tactics will fail and you will never buy anything by SCO *EVER*. If a 10th of the people who read /. call them they're sales staff will be swamped. Product and Sales Inquiries 1-800-726-8649 Or, call their home office and complain some more... The SCO Group 355 South 520 West Suite 100 Lindon, Utah 84042 USA 801-765-4999 phone 801-765-1313 fax

  7. Remember the Famous Ghandi Quote on Meet Martin Taylor Of Microsoft's Open Source Test Lab · · Score: 4, Interesting

    The back of my old Linux Hardware Solutions t-shirt has the following quote from Ghandi next to the penguin:

    First they ignore you,
    Then they laugh at you,
    Then they fight you,
    Then you win.

    I'd say Microsoft has now reached the third line regarding Linux. This is a good sign.
