  1. qfixapp is a more generic solution on X-Wing, TIE Fighter 95 Fixed, Lego Yoda Revealed · · Score: 1

    see google

  2. Re:The Mystery of Tom Bombadil Solved! on Wired's LOTR III Tech Breakdown · · Score: 2, Informative

    and Mr. Coward copied this from here:

  3. Re:CDR and Optical Media Sucks on Simple Windows Backup to CD/DVD? · · Score: 1

    That, and I've had at least one old CDR (kodak) that got a crack in it from being spun in a modern fast drive.

  4. Re:dselect on Debian Turning 10 · · Score: 1

    I doubt anyone does.
    I had to use it myself in the pre-apt days, but I still have to wonder what the author was smoking.
    Doing dpkg -i and resolving dependencies manually was easier.

  5. Apps on Worst Linux Annoyances? · · Score: 1

    The only thing really missing is the whole point of using an OS in the first place: applications.

    Clearly an economic problem, not a technical one, and certainly something that isn't worth writing a book about.

  6. It's obvious. on What's Missing from Free Software? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Consistency.

    But the whole nature of free/open software is that everyone wants to do things their way (myself included), so it's something that's impossible to fix.

  7. Yawn on Truck Dismount One-Ups Stair Dismount · · Score: 0

    taat should stick to demos, these games are boring and braindead

  8. Re:uh huh on Windows Tech Writer Looks at Linux · · Score: 0

    The fact that BSD is always an "alternative" to Linux is in my opinion, just furthering the saying that "BSD is for people that hate Linux, Windows is for people that get things done". Why do BSD users always have to profess their fate to UNIX and in the same breath say something, ANYTHING, about Linux?

    I run Windows 2000 and Windows 98 because I love getting things done and the applications and the games and EVERYTHING. It has nothing to do with Linux. Ever. I still run Debian on my firewall. With BSD users it seems to be a conversion of holy nature like they are becoming a shaolin priest and can't look back....why?

  9. Gentoo sucks on Zynot Foundation Forks Gentoo · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    the whole point of creating gentoo was arrogance in the first place:

    want to compile everything from source ?
    use slackware, lfs, debian

    want to use BSD ports ?
    use BSD

    after examining the gentoo init scripts , using the portage system for a while and having been hit my many of the gentoo bugs I can safely say that the developers are arrogant fools who produce an overhyped yet badly designed, underperforming distribution

  10. Yawn on ESR Recasts Jargon File in Own Image · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    ESR is a drooling retarded moron, you just have to watch "The Code" to see what I mean.

  11. Re:Pwm is nice as well. on EvilWM - Minimalist Window Manager · · Score: 1

    Too bad that PWM is incomplete, it cannot handle the mapping of all window types on workspace changes, and there is only one focus type(sloppy).
    Also it hasn't been actively maintained for a year or more.

  12. Re:Already on sourceforge. on AOL Pulls Nullsoft's WASTE · · Score: 2, Insightful

    informative ? there are exactly zero files in the project's CVS and no files to download
