  2. Counter-proposal? on It's Not Time for OSS Release Cycle Synchronization · · Score: 1

    Ars also examines a counter-proposal offered by KDE.

    Do you expect us to read the article? Or do you provide a summary of the proposal?

  3. Re:A good trailer on Early Review Calls New Indiana Jones Film Dreadful · · Score: 1

    I remember the great theme-songs from Godzilla; Puff Daddy - Come with me, and Jamiroquai - Deeper Underground.

    They made the trailers look so cool.

    Those songs were absent during the movie.

    They should hire the trailer-makers for music-score selection.

  5. Re:who cares? on The Continuing War Against Microsoft's "Facts" Campaign · · Score: 3, Funny

    Since the improved GPU-detection of 'Product X' you won't have to fiddle with xorg.conf anymore. This leaves me with no 'feel' of satisfaction when it works.

    No only that, but a swarm of thousands of fishes with these attached to their heads will turn the shark into canned tuna.

    You'll end up somewhere very improbable.

  12. Re:This is ... complicated on Adobe Puts Free Photoshop Online · · Score: 1

    So it was sort of a far fetched wordplay meant to lightly confuse. Hm, it made perfect sense in my head but seems kinda awkward reading it back.

    What I meant:

    a. One less reason to stick with Windows.
    b. One less reason to switch (the developers of Photoshop) to linux.

  13. So does this mean ... on Microsoft or Apple - Who Is the Faster Patcher? · · Score: 1

    So does this mean that Microsoft does more quick-n-dirty patches?

    b. one less reason to switch to linux

  19. Re:Why bother? on EU Commissioner Proposes 95 year Copyright · · Score: 1

    The reason is hope.

    Nowadays you have to promise they will not have to do anything in their entire life if they make one good record.

    That is the only way these youngsters might some day make a record worth listening to.

  20. Battle on 'Friendly' Worms Could Spread Software Fixes · · Score: 1

    Kind of like the battles being fought by micro-organisms and virusses and our natural lines of defense in our body

    So decades from now we don't know what is happening in our computer systems; thousands of mutated forms of virusses are figthing for life and death.

  21. Feature-complete on Haiku OS Resurrects BeOS as Open Source · · Score: 0

    Yes, I heard it's 92.64% feature complete.

  22. Re:Good on Facebook A Black Hole For Personal Info · · Score: 1

    Yes, because one's facebook is a very accurate representation of the person who wrote it. No hypocrisy will be found there since the most active users of such sites find no importance in how the world perceive them!

    Oh wait ...

  23. Re:Easy Solution on Facebook A Black Hole For Personal Info · · Score: 4, Funny
