  1. Excuse me ... on MSN Lists 10 Dumb Things NT Users Do · · Score: 1

    The article starts out saying that NT is easier to install than the BeOS. It goes downhill from there.

    My initial reaction to the claim I started with was outrage. No one who has installed NT can claim it's easy.

  2. Gene pool without a lifeguard! on Dying Babies and The Myth of American Freedom · · Score: 1

    Commenting on only one issue raised, that of Singer, I have to agree.

    Because technology is allowing infants, who would normally die soon after birth, to mature and mate -- the human gene pool is becoming increasingly polluted.

    If you don't advocate termination, you should at least agree on sterilization of defective newborns.

  3. Caldera 1.3??? Excuse me sir... on CNN Installs Linux · · Score: 1

    But please OPEN YOUR F***ING EYES and enter the current time frame!!! If you want Caldera, use 2.3 which is a very easy install -- very similar to Windows.

    Excuse me, but I have no patience for people who not only have no mind but who also post web pages that say "I'M STUPID AND UNCONCIOUS OF THE WORLD AROUND ME!!!".

    It just touched a button in my psyche.

  4. This is important because ...? on Taiwan Earthquake · · Score: 1

    Humans are walking protein packages interested in their own lives.

    Life has no intrisic value -- only what we give it.

    Will I be able to afford that 1 gig RAM upgrade next year?

  5. Certification -- If You Want To Spend The Time on Ask Slashdot: Is Professional Engineering Certification Necessary? · · Score: 1

    My current position is as a programmer of Oracle database reports. Yes, I have a CS degree with database background.

    Is certification required for my job? No.

    Do I have to be able to "talk the talk, and walk the walk" in my job? Yes.

    If you know how to do most tasks in the industry you're going to specialize in, that should be enough for most situations.

  6. Internet Censorship??? Never work... on PICS and the Global Rating System · · Score: 1

    Let them pass all the bills and laws they wish to...don't follow them. Don't talk about them and just like that Australian curiousity, they will slowly fade from consciousness.

  7. Animation??? on Unisys Not Suing (most) Webmasters for Using GIFs · · Score: 1

    When someone tells me how to convert a GIF animation into PNG format, without a loss of graphical quality -- Then I will convert, not before.
