  1. Re:The Truth Will Prevail on Microsoft To Start Running Anti-Unix Ads · · Score: 1
    Linux crashes? Where have you seen extensive evidence of that? I have problems all of the time with my windows based computers. Sometimes I will get a BSOD, sometimes the network will just stop working for some reason, I'll have to restart services occasionally, etc.. I've been running Linux for three years now and have not had a single system crash that was not caused by a power outage. Your comments here are the only place I have ever heard of this being a problem with Linux, unless someone was working with a beta or heavily modified kernel. No wonder you're posting as an anonymous coward.

    Granted I don't know much about EXT2FS, but I have never lost any of my data to it. I do worry when my computer reboots after a power outage and see that it's fixing bad inodes though...

  2. Re:Nazis tried the same on Microsoft To Start Running Anti-Unix Ads · · Score: 1

    I can't believe as a Christian (which I assume you are since you believe in hell) that you would want someone to go there for speaking their mind. He did not say Bill Gates was as bad as hitler, he equated the methods that Microsoft uses to the ones the Nazi party used, and they do have similarities if you know anything about history.

  3. Re:GPL too vague, accident could force release? on Open Source in the Military? · · Score: 1

    I cannot find the phrase "in some way" anywhere in the GPL. Plus that is making the version available to the PUBLIC, not to some spy or hacker that could get the binary version. If the software is used internally by the military only, I don't see a problem in using GPLed code.

  4. Re:Misprint in story on Review: The Time Machine · · Score: 1

    I pity you, and all other people that couldn't enjoy the movie. Thankfully I had not read far into the book on my plane trip two years ago and wasn't interested enough to continue before seeing the movie. The movie was masterfully done, and there was a great deal of character development, although I agree there could have been more. This movie has restored my faith in the ability of the movie industry to make great movies. The only piece of crap that I think could have been left out was the "dwarf tossing" comment, although that did make me chuckle :). It does seem like almost everyone that I've heard of that didn't like the movie had thought that it wasn't true enough to the book. I just hope now that the movie inspired me to read the next two books that I don't become one of you this December!
