  1. Re:Quit Your Crying on East vs. West: Culture and Distributed Development · · Score: 2, Insightful
    To me people with a confidence problem are characterised by: Constantly harping on how they are the best, largest, most beautiful people on earth. Just has to have the tallest buildings, the biggest trains, cars etc. Have _world_ championships in sports only they themselves engage in.
    No, you figure out what nationality I'm thinking of. :-)

    Are you talking about Southeast Asia or Europe?

    1 Asia has the largest buildings in the world.
    2 Polls show asian women are the most beautiful
    3 Europe has the best train systems follwed by Asia
    4 Japan makes the best mass consumption cars, followed by Europeon Elites like Porsche and Ferrari for high end
    5 I bet Europe and Asia have more "World Championship" that dont involve the world than any other country.

    As you can see I think the area your talking about is either Europe or Asia.

  2. Quit Your Crying on East vs. West: Culture and Distributed Development · · Score: 3, Funny

    Who cares, the point is that the guy is American so he is talking about the country he is from. Why is it every time someone mentions 'the west' and America every European jumps up and say you see, American are so self centered thinking they are the west. Seems to me Europeans have a confidence problem. Also last time I checked you're on the same fricken land mass 'the east' is on.

  3. Re:bogus on Mexico to Abolish the Public Domain? · · Score: 1

    This comment sounds alot like Start Wars.. 'If its not in Google, it doesnt exist'

  4. Put Freenet through the test! on Freenet 0.5.1 Released, P2P Network Stabilizing · · Score: 1

    We need to put Freenet through the Slashdot challenge!
    Freenet can put a website up and we see if we can bring it to its knees! I say if it can take it then it's a viable technology. Maybe this will be a new yardstick of technological feasibility.

    What's a sig?

  5. Re:Got me thinking... on One Year After September 11 · · Score: 1

    You really can't count .. August 6, (1945) Hiroshima Bombed We initated that ourselves

  6. The real question! on Microsoft Urged Linux Retaliation · · Score: 0, Troll

    The real question is when will people figure out these leaks are fake.

  7. Are we back to BBS's?? on Community Networks and Websites? · · Score: 1

    Wow what a wonder new thing, actual virtual communities formed by people who live close to each other. I though we killed BBS's a long time ago.

  8. Re:Google... on IDE, SCSI And Recording Everything · · Score: 1

    I think the only reason Google uses IDE is becasue they load the entire database into memory across many machines. They never really exercise the disk much.

  9. I like the metal on metal sound of SCSI! on IDE, SCSI And Recording Everything · · Score: 5, Funny

    There is nothing like the metal on metal sound of a high quality SCSI drive. Also you cant find an IDE drive to make the high pitch whine like the 10,000rpm Cheetah. The IDE drives make weak plastic sounds, or almost make no sound at all.

  10. You measure it with $MONEY$ on It's Not About Lines of Code · · Score: 1
    You measure how productive a programmer is by how much money they make. The more value they add the more they are worth.

    Example Fredy FastFingers produces 5,000 lines of perfect optimized code a day, but if he only makes $30,000.00 a year then he is an idiot and who cares!

  11. ?? Selling software to linux users ??? on Loki Games Closing? · · Score: 1

    I'm not supprised this happened. Why market software to a segment of the OS community who's main goal is to support free software? I'm not saying that all linux user are this way but I would wonder how much money free OS supportes spend on retail application versus the comercial OS user.

  12. Public Domain on Tackling Open-Source Book Projects? · · Score: 3, Informative
    Why not enter it into the public domain, then you don't have to worry about a license. The advantage is there is no cost enforce your license.

    Why does everything have to be some sort of 'Open Source'? Long live public domain!!!!

  13. Why is everything nowadays 'open source' on Should Public Funds Mean Public Code? · · Score: 1

    How about public domain, its the only thing thats really free anymore.

  14. Re:sure they do on Slashback: Petdom, Denial, Confusion · · Score: 1

    Yea but if they write it in house it wont work worth a damn just like for big companies who write in house software. They need consultants on something like this.
