  1. Re:Welcome to V! on Britain to log all vehicle movement · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I think we should move on from the 1984 comparisons. Let Orwell get some rest.
    A much more appropriate and unused comparison is "V for Vendetta":
    http://www.shadowgalaxy.net/Vendetta/vmain.html
    1984 + Dark Knight + Utra Violence = V for Vendetta

  2. Re:Only way on Miss Digital World 2005 · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Damn!
    Try not to justify your own meaningless child having, counseling attending, no ball having life but spreading your bullshit to others ok?

    Don't get married. Don't have kids. Buy anything you damn well want to, and make sure you pay cash for sex. It's a lot cheaper and a whole lot less stressfull.

    So, you had small balls then?

  5. dot dot dot dash dash dash dot dot dot on FEMA Demands Use of IE To File Online Katrina Claims · · Score: 1

    Potentialy a sign of the lack of broad thinking across the whole of FEMA.
    You would think FEMA in an emergency would make it possible to use
    lynx
    telnet
    morse code
    flash lights
    read and green flags
    smoke signals

    I wonder how many languages they can speak in when you use the telephone?

  6. A Blue Trojan on Microsoft Wants Sit-Down With OSS Advocates · · Score: 1

    So Microsoft has decided to start pusing there Trojan horse towards the gates of FOSS. Bet it gets a BSoD before it reaches em.

    I think talks with Microsoft would be good. But at the moment there just asking us around for a bbq and some shit shandy.

    We realy shouldn't talk to them until they are pleading at all our doors holding gift wrapped single malts....

  7. No cigar on Google Delivering Factual Answers · · Score: 1

    Google is always on the verge of making me say "holly shit thats amazing" but never quite gets there.

    "portugal population"
    and getting an answer is great. realy cool stuff.

    This would be cooler though:
    ("portugal population")+10=
    Doesn't work. But I don't see why it shouldn't.

    Or even this:
    "size of portugal" works.
    But:
    "size of portugal" in square feet. Doesn't.

    They have all the seperate pieces working.
    I bet someone there is pulling their hair out
    trying to get it to all work together.

  8. Re:Criterion Should Release Forbidden Planet on DV on The Birth of Electronic Music · · Score: 1

    Yeah. Or that episode where the where rubbing crisco all over each other while under sun lamps.

  11. Thank you Bill on Gates Pledges $750M to Vaccinate Children · · Score: 1

    As much as I hate your software and your companies monopolistic habits, I thank you.

    You are helping the worlds sick more than most governments can or will.

  12. Robotron & Bomberman on Too Much Gaming, Anyone? · · Score: 1

    Many many hours of playing both these induced the feeling of comming up on acid with a side order of PCP.
    Ever noticed how the windshield of a car is perfect for visualizing Robotron, even when you don't want to.
    Would imagine pusing bombs down the corridor so they would intercept my co-workers as they rounded corners.
    Thankfully, two things happened that saved us.
    PHB's decided that we shouldn't play Bomberman in the conference room anymore.
    The Robotron joysticks broke, we thought it would be best to not replace them for a while.

  13. Yeah! on CNN Cancels Crossfire · · Score: 1

    Now maybe they can work on getting rid of the God slant they seem to have adopted since Bush got his second term.

    Seconds thoughts, forget about it, I'll just stick to international papers and NWI.

  14. Re:I'll stick to 2d on 3D User Interfaces · · Score: 1

    That depends on your definition of "we".

    There has been 1D interfaces for a long time.
    And they are still in use. A terminal without ncurses is a 1D interface.
    A teletype is a 1D interface.
    And the original interface, a bank of horizontaly monted switches is the original 1D interface.

  15. Re:Liars on 2004 Election Weirdness Continues · · Score: 1

    Why should we "get over" someone stealing an election? Without democracy we become just a bunch of assholes pissing on the rest of the world.

    As an aside, a large part of the world doesn't believe we are a democracy and thus you define their opinion of us, and reason for hating us, perfectly.

    We ARE just a bunch of assholes pissing on the rest of the world.

    Just adding more heated bullshit to this already large mound of heated bullshit.

  19. Re:As usual on DoJ - Making Data Public Would 'Crash System' · · Score: 1

    Here we see the usual response from a person who is usualy considered to be the smugest being out smugged. P.S. I wonder if exporting the domestic lobyist data would crash it too.

  20. Rollover minutes. on EMusic Acquired, Halting Unlimited Downloads · · Score: 1

    If they just did rollover downloads like the cellphone companies do it wouldn't be so bad. Some months I download dozens of albums, others I don't download any.
    This doubly sucks as I haven't been able to download anything from emusic.com for about a week now. DL manager just stalls saying Requesting File.

  21. GCT Space Phase 3 on Slashback: Sorveteria, Rockets, Anger · · Score: 1

    GCT Space Seems to be missing a phase 3.
    Maybe the underpants gnomes are behind this.

  22. So, whats new? on Sen Hatch Would Like To Destroy Filetraders' PCs · · Score: 1

    At least Hatch wants to do it for a reason (albeit one I don't like).
    Micro$haft seems to do this all the time, at random!
    So we, the unfortunate ones, will at least be ready for it.

    Agreed. It will just put us all in GUID and DLL hell.

  25. So far so good. on WiFi Woes With .11g · · Score: 1

    I just upgraded to 11g with a link sys AP and card. I do see substantial improvement over my 11b (d-link ap and card).
    11g pulls off 2MBps from my server fine. 11b did only 600KBps. The old 11b cards play happy with the new AP. Now I'm just crossing my fingers that the 12"PB that we just got for dad in law works with it. Although I did read somewhere that linksys 11g and Airport Extreme use the same chipsets.
    Strangly, the 11g does seem to improve internet access through my DLS connection. Page loads do seem faster.
    More importantly with 11g I don't see the signal strength drop bellow 50% when I'm in bed :) with 11b I always thought my putty shells where gonna disconnect when reaching for my beer ;)
