    Yea, because no one is going to buy a low cost Linux computer at Walmart and slap a pirate version of Windows on it. Nope. Never gona happen.

  2. Re:Read Atlas Shrugged. on Copyright Bill could Stifle Innovation · · Score: 1

    In truth I cant realy stand the books. However Shrugged is the only common refrenece I could think of that points out how laws like these work.

  3. Read Atlas Shrugged. on Copyright Bill could Stifle Innovation · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Read Atlas Shrugged. These laws are not being put in place to be followed. There are there to be selectively enforced.

    That should like a LOT of soldering.

    "where do you get the actresses for the, uh, amateur videos?"

    Bus stops, homeless shelters, AA meetings.

    Oh yea? Well I'll just go and make my own license. With strippers and blackjack. In fact, forget about the license and the blackjack.

  9. WHY! on An iPod-based Guide To SF Wireless Hotspots · · Score: 4, Insightful
    For the love of all that you hold dear, WHY!

    Can the iPod connect to Wifi spots? NO! So you'll have a device that can display this information in order to make use of it, why drag the iPod into it? This whole iPod craze is getting to the point of the people who install Linux on their toaster.

    These video games are as much "from the street" as Vanilla Ice was.

  12. Re:Microsoft DRM on Industry Group Would Permit (Some) DVD Copying · · Score: 1

    Look at it this way. Microsoft DRM is being used on a lot of porn sites (or so I'm told). If it where easy to crack, it would be done allready.

  13. Re:Cats landing on their feet on Like A Cat, New Robot Lands On Its Feet · · Score: 2, Informative

    I recall reading a bit about how after the 10th floor, cats cat spread thir legs and "glide" to slow down enough to survive. Statistics show that there are more feline fatalities between floors 3-10 then there are after 10.

    "I don't really follow the logic in that statement. Someone help me out, why would Microsoft not satifying their customer base suddenly make free software easy to use? (and how come as a long time open source user I never noticed this?)"

    Its the same reason that a single source can prove that everyone finds Microsoft software hard to use.

  20. So, this is new how? on Unix To Beef Up Longhorn · · Score: 5, Informative

    Hate to break it to yall, but there have been some VERY nice UNIX(tm) layers for Windows since NT 4.0 The same people that made Exceed X11 for Windows also made a kernel add-in with full POSIX support. All the UNIX goddies where there and it even seemed to increase stability. Microsoft purchased the company after they failed to get their software to run well on Windows 2k (they ran out of money and couldn't afford to redevlope). If they get this stuff working again in Longhorn, I'll be first in line to buy it when its released.

    It was claimed that peer to peer file transfer over firewire is "slow and buggy". However Sony has standard TCP/IP network drivers for firewire. Plug a cable twixt two computers and exhange files. Not slow, not buggy.

  23. Re:There is a way to connect two iPods on The iPod Gets WiFi, Sort Of · · Score: 1

    All Sony notebook and desktop computers have TCP/IP over firewire driver for Windows. It works VERY well and is not "slow" nor "buggy". Just because Apple hasn't figured it out dont mean it dont exist.
