  1. users? on Worst Linux Annoyances? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    What have been your biggest annoyances...

    Since I very, very rarely use Linux, the biggest annoyance to me is all you god-damned Linux-loving zealots.

    Seriously.

    I'm not trying to start a flame war (but it'll surely be modded as such).

    can't we all just speak Esperanto?

    (i suppose i should've written this message in esperanto to illustrate my point, oh well)

  4. damn /. on .NET Version of Quake II · · Score: 1

    so where's a bittorrent link to get the Quake 2 demo? ID is slashdotted.

    ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/quake2/q2-314-dem o-x86.exe

    arg.

    With a name like that, I think people would have to wonder about gaping security holes.

    Help a brother out!
    paypal a couple of bucks his way. Or at least DO NOT BUY ANY CDS! This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of.

    There is no emoticon for what I am feeling!

    yeah, i see what you mean.

    This would be badass when combined with BitTorrent!

  11. Re:Pocket PCs are Free on Palm to Buy Handspring · · Score: 1

    Well, even better, because you can get paid $100 to get a cell phone.

  12. Pocket PCs are Free on Palm to Buy Handspring · · Score: 1

    Why purchase a Palm or Handspring when you can get a pocket pc for free?

  13. Re:PI Engineering's X-Keys on Searching for Keyboards Loaded with Features? · · Score: 1

    I'm not arguing than those with a fatter wallet than I will easily be able to justify the cost. However, in the end you are still getting 16-keys for $80. A mass produced strip of buttons like that should be very inexpensive. You could easily go out and buy a whole new keyboard with at least as many of those extra keys for far less than $80.

  14. Re:PI Engineering's X-Keys on Searching for Keyboards Loaded with Features? · · Score: 1

    those prices in USD? if they are then they're a little ridiculous don't you think? $80 for 16 keys?

  15. Re:What's the big news? on NVidia Accused of Inflating Benchmarks · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I know, I thought this was common practice across the board in the video card industry. NVidia has always had the shadiest marketing (remember what the 256 stood for in the GeForce 256?) so I don't really think anyone would be surprised by this.

    ...besides, everyone knows that it was all marilyn manson's fault.

  17. Re:Try This Method on An Affordable Air Purifier For Dusty Computer Labs? · · Score: 1

    That's why you have to dump the water, clean the pan and the bottom of the vacuum after each use. Personally, I think Rainbows are a waste of money.

    i just double-up on the mites. they chow down hard core on my dead skin cells.

  19. Re:Intake Filters on An Affordable Air Purifier For Dusty Computer Labs? · · Score: 1

    my case came with 3 nice plastic mesh ones in the front. the case fans/power-supply fans draw enough air through for the filter to work. i rinse them out in the sink a couple of times a year, they're always loaded with dust. now i just have to find a place that sells just the filters so that i can put them into all my other computers.

  20. bush? no. on Trace Levels of Lead Shown to Lower IQs · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    ...the American public's propensity to elect the worst candidates...

    In case you missed it, Bush lost the popular vote.

  21. moto? on Phoenix and Minotaur Get New Names · · Score: 4, Interesting

    It's too bad they didn't name [Phoenix] after a motorcycle. It would've made much more sense. Motorcycles are faster, lighter, more compact, more efficient, and way more fun than crappy cars.

    i don't know where it is but according to the late night commercials, girls go there to get videotaped by snoop dogg. it sure looks like a fun place though.

    anyone know if there's a new version of the windows command-line client? all i could find is the ancient setiathome-3.03.i386-winnt-cmdline.exe. i tried exploring a couple of the ftp servers with no luck.

    anyone able to locate a newer version or am i stuck running the crappy gui?
