  1. Re:Sorry /., but they have a point on Microsoft Developing Linux Policy, Plan of Attack · · Score: 1

    Consistent? Not tried to open a elderly Word document lately?

  2. Re:No more Kernel Panic and Linux Thinking on Moving To Linux · · Score: 1

    I'm afraid I can only assume that you're lying or mad. My Windows XP box crashes about 100 times more often than my Solaris machine. I've never seen a Linux kernal panic. Ever. And as for Windows Mobile, I have to reboot that piece of shit 2 or 3 times a day.

  3. Re:how tired is the blue screen of death?? on Moving To Linux · · Score: 1

    Lucky you. My brand new HP Windows XP box crashed about 200 times the first week. Even after reinstalling everything, it still crashes about once a week. In other words, about 100 times as often as my Solaris machines.

  4. Re:Evolution? on Living Without a Pulse · · Score: 1

    Hear, hear.

  5. Re: Eh? on Living Without a Pulse · · Score: 1

    No sense of humor as well as no brain, eh, bozo?

  6. Re:Uh oh! on ICANN Study Slams Verisign · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The UN, through the ITU, assign all kinds of numbers, codes and callsigns. Did the world come to an end because the US had to paint "N" on the side of their airplanes?

  7. Bang goes another Odeon customer on Odeon Orders Takedown Of Copycat Site · · Score: 1

    Me. And that's the crappest web site I've ever seen. So I won't be looking at that, either.

  8. Re:So What? on THX-1138: The (Digitally Enhanced) Director's Cut · · Score: 1

    You're an idiot. "THX1138" and "Silent Running" are among the best SF movies ever made. Just because your retarded intellect is unable to comprehend ideas rather than explosions and tits, does not make them bad movies.

  9. They just need to get Linux to crash a lot on Linux vs. Windows: What's The Difference? · · Score: 2, Funny
    To make it more like Windows.

    The Microsoft Problem Solving Process;
    1. Restart the app.
    2. Reboot the PC.
    3. Reinstall the app.
    4. Reinstall everything.
  10. Crash, crash and crash again on On Microsoft's Embedded DevCon Keynote · · Score: 1

    Given that my iPaq crashes at least once a day, I'm bound to choose Windows for embedded applications, aren't I?

    Not.

  11. Re:Gun banners can't be trusted, either on When Think Tanks Attack · · Score: 1

    If you oppose gun bans, your web site needs work. Lots of serious work.

  12. Gun banners can't be trusted, either on When Think Tanks Attack · · Score: 1

    Much as I dislike Microsoft, it appears that Lambert is an archetypical gun banner, with all the errors of logic that implies; a quick glance at the rest of his site yields the usual arguments from authority, "tu quoque", strawmen, "victim as authority" and downright misrepresentation that gun banners are so fond of. Ergo, I have little faith in anything else he says.

  13. 150/day is trivia on Spamassassin Beats CRM-114 In Anti-Spam Shootout · · Score: 1

    150 spams a *day*?????

    Hell, that's what gets through my filters. On a bad day I get 1000/hour.

  14. Re:eye safety on 2004 Venus Transit In Pictures · · Score: 0

  15. Anything but ... on BIND Is Most Popular DNS Server · · Score: 1, Interesting

    ... djbdns. Nothing to do with the software and everything to do with the attitude of its author.

  16. Re:How to protect a free society on Cry To Beat Iris Scanners · · Score: 0

    He ain't no libertarian. He's Religious Right. Read his journal. Utterly bonkers.

  17. Prius fuel consumption on Rescuers Prep for Hybrid Car Accidents · · Score: 0

    55mpg for $21K? Some kind of joke, surely? haven't the people who buy these things looked at the diesel VW Lupo? Much the same mileage for half the money and a lot less complexity.

  18. Re:Nobody but Slashdotters care about that on What Lies Ahead For Linux · · Score: 0

    Ah, so when MS breaks the law, you don't care, but when individuals do, it's a big deal.

    That makes you a hypocrite.

  19. Re:Some issues worth further discussion. on What Lies Ahead For Linux · · Score: 0

    I've just got an XP Home machine at home. It has crashed more in the last couple of weeks than every Unix machine I've ever used in the last 30 years put together. Is that your idea of "very stable"?

  20. Re:Automotive Vaporware on The Bugatti Veyron · · Score: 1

    It's "Porsche", dammit.

  21. Re:As close to the horses mouth as I can find: on Andromeda And Mutant X Cancelled · · Score: 0

    Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

    Andromeda must die!

  22. Good on Andromeda And Mutant X Cancelled · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Andromeda was dross. The world's a better place without it.

  23. All film space battles are rubbish on Best Sci-Fi Space Battles? · · Score: 1

    If you want to know what a real battle in space would be like, I suggest you read the relevant passage from Iain M Banks' book "Excession". Said battle takes 4 or 5 pages to describe, involves hundreds of ships and takes 350 milliseconds. All the film space battles I've ever seen, and the Star Wars ones are particularly bad, are reworkings of WW2 aircraft dogfights. The audience may be comfortable with this, but it involves breaches of the laws of physics (spacecraft cannot fly in curves unless under thrust, explosions make no noise in space), obvious nonsense (human beings aiming projectile weapons - sheesh) and stupidity such as the ships all being the same way up.

  24. Re:Sounds good to me on Pioneer Electron Beam DVD · · Score: 1

    What's an election beam? Is that like a hanging chad?

  25. Arseholes on Making Things Easy Is Hard · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Raymond is an arsehole. But Gruber is a bigger arsehole. And they both need to to do something about their egos.
