Wouldn't it have been better to just have pointed out teh keyboard chart and explaining the reasons without having a go back at the parent?
No, I don't think so. If someone's going to rant all over someone else's work and call it crap, I think their comments bear scrutiny. If that means the OP looks stupid and is ridiculed, so be it. He should have investigated more.
I might get into a little Java programming if the environment were open-source.
Why wait when Mono is open-source and C# kicks ass? I say this having done both server and GUI Java development for 5 years, and a having been a very vocal detractor of C# at its inception, until I finally tried it out.
I only hope that someone somewhere will play Amazing Grace on the pipes for him as he did for Spock at the end of Star Trek II.
And this time, let's dispense with the cheesey electric organ and use real bagpipes, shall we? The best Star Trek movie ever ends with three minutes of fingernails screeching on a chalkboard.
Yeah, I ordered two-day delivery on Monday the 11th, with all items in stock. As soon as I clicked the "Finished" button, the ETA showed up as the 19th. Phshaw.
Let's hope they set up a good system that we all can use.
You mean like the one we've got already? Honestly, is it worth reinventing the wheel on purely idealogical principle ("America shouldn't control the root DNS servers")? Is there something detrimental the US government is doing with it's control?
I fear the day that Linus starts losing his marbles like RMS and ESR. I mean, yeah, the guys are brilliant visionaries and incredibly creative people... I just don't necessarily like what they're doing with that potential right now.
The first D in DDoS is for "distributed". This is because one desktop computer by itself is incapable of DoS'ing another computer. You need lots, and those "lots" are typically distributed (there's that D again) in such a manner that they will not take the same route to the same place. The internet does not slow down just because one site is getting DDoS'ed.
Can we drop the SCO thing yet... This is like standing on the side lines watching someone get beat to death by an angry mob and cheering for more blood.
My brain is obviously not equipped to handle this story.
You brain is obviously not equipped to be funny. You should take this stuff to the ametuer stand-up circuit; you'll have less time to post on Slashdot.
Wow. I feel like I just exercised my brain! Who knew being so vicious was so healthy? I'm not being a jerk; I'm exercising! Thanks, researchers!

Well, processes period is kind of a new thing for you guys. ;P
Ranting back gives more legitimacy to the OP.
;)
Yes, but dispassionate sentence-by-sentence refutations not as amusing. Most of the time.
I kan't wait to see that release koming
Karma kwhore.

Try Mono; I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
I'm sure there is something snappy I could say here... but I'm really not in to it today...
I think I'm going to go back to bed
Careful. Don't be too unhappy or you get the implant.
Well, at least you can finally put that Y2K bunker you built to good use.
Helping criminals like this seems suspicous - in an almost Napseter/Grokster/BitTorrent way. Perhaps google should be outlawed too.
Good idea. More progressive states like the PRC are already ahead of you.

Doing things properly results in a more permanent fix.
True, but vigilantism is more therapeutic.
"Shit!"
Admit it, it was yours, too.

...carry more weight when the coming from authors residing in English-speaking countries, which we can all agree Australia is not.
Huh? I though Australia, UK, Ireland, etc. all spoke American.
Bush's first gutless act was going to the feds to settle a state issue.
Umm... Al Gore's camp filed the lawsuit.

next you'llbe telling me emacs is better than vi.
Well, you have to admit... emacs is a much better operating system...
Sorry, I'm at work and the IT Nazis won't let me try it out.
Dave, we need you to report to human resources before you leave today.
Thank you,

I thought the Evil Religious Right(tm) had cornered the market on unreasonable opposition to scientific progress. What am I supposed to make of this??
Only that you should be thankful we keep our clothes on. Well... most of us, anyhow. Those other ones are total loonies.
You won't just be able to breath underwater--you'll take pleasure trips on the surface of the sun.
Sounds fun. Send me a postcard.

You clicked the "Read more" link, too.
If everyone goes to LCDs, interoffice efficiency will surely decline since there's no space on an LCD for Post-Its!
Exactly. How the heck am I supposed to remember all the server root passwords, anyhow?
I have never seen a Word document that OO.o can't open, though I occasionally have trouble editing them in OO.o and reopening them in Word later.
Sometimes.
