  1. Re:Hegemon on China Closes 1,129 Web Sites · · Score: 1

    Chomsky is windbag.

  2. Hegemon on China Closes 1,129 Web Sites · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I learned a great deal from this book. (Note: By saying this, I'm not pronouncing this book as the bible on China. Don't box me in. Slashdot is good for that.)

    An excellent review can be found here.

  3. Re:The key phrase in the indictments on Following up on Torrent Shutdowns · · Score: 1

    More importantly, they took donations.

  4. Re:Most Spies for Beijing are Taiwanese on How Can I Trust Firefox? · · Score: 1

    I laughed so hard I cried.

  5. Is this a joke? on Final Fantasy Concert Series Coming to the States · · Score: 1, Funny

    No really... is it?

  6. Re:Slashdot Response on President Bush's Money For Space Cometh · · Score: 1

    That was beautiful!

  7. Re:No, it was like on Richard Clarke on Cyberterrorism and Iraq · · Score: 1

    Clearly Eric was wrong.

  8. Re:No, it was like on Richard Clarke on Cyberterrorism and Iraq · · Score: 1

    Yes. The U.S. Government should listen to a person named shitdrummer. That's classic.

  9. Re:Stalking horse on U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft Resigns · · Score: 1

    Not insightful. Godwin!

  10. Re:Prediction: The creators get sued anyway on BitTorrent Accounts for 35% of Traffic · · Score: 0

    True.

    I wasn't saying that BitTorrent was illegal though.

  11. Re:Prediction: The creators get sued anyway on BitTorrent Accounts for 35% of Traffic · · Score: 1

    If BITKEEPER were illegal, Linux would be screwed.

    I'm sure you meant BIT TORRENT.

  12. Re:The rest of the world must think we're idiots on Kerry Concedes Election To Bush · · Score: 1

    Ah yes! But this election was for the President of the United States of America. They're the only ones that really matter in this issue.

  13. Re:Yes but not because of this superstitious crap. on Does Redskins Loss Presage A Kerry Win? · · Score: 1

    I tired to do that the other day, but it didn't work.

  14. Re:Kerry or Bush wins = America loses on Does Redskins Loss Presage A Kerry Win? · · Score: 1

    It's a good thing we've got educated/intelligent/hard working people like you to fix our problems for us. I would never have thought they could be fixed here on slashdot. Thank the gods you are here.

  15. RTFM? on Experiences w/ Software RAID 5 Under Linux? · · Score: 1

    I don't mean to sound like an ass, but has this guy even RTFM?

  16. Re:And why are you people voting for Bush? on Dept. of Homeland Security Enforces Expired Patent · · Score: 1

    True. It doesn't have to end, but normally when Godwin's law can be applied to a thread, it effectively is over.

  17. Re:And why are you people voting for Bush? on Dept. of Homeland Security Enforces Expired Patent · · Score: 2, Funny

    ooo#### THREAD END ####ooo

    Godwin's law applies.

  18. Re:Technology? TECHNOLOGY?? on How Technology Failed in Iraq · · Score: 1

    Interesting "statistic." I wonder how you or your source came up with those numbers. Just what is considered civilian and what is considered military?

  19. Re:I just don't believe it! on Cybersecurity Chief Resigns · · Score: 1

    Then they all blabber about the latest football team this and draft that and did you see that pitcher? At which point I hit the punch bowl and the cashews and sit by myself, running through my head the list of things I need to implement as xmlrpc services.

    You know, there is more to life than smtp, tcp/ip, http, and xmlrpc. You may already know this though. You do have a wife.

  20. Re:Your vote is Dubya's Vote? on Ask Green Party Presidential Candidate David Cobb · · Score: 1

    Why is it that I feel you're only old enough to have experienced one other administration as an adult?

    I know! Because I'm probably right.

  21. Re:still censored.. on Top 25 Censored Media Stories of 2003-2004 · · Score: 1

    That's amazing. You already know about an excellent critique of F911 so you simply pooh-pooh it in the same sentence. Look... I'm not a lefty or a righty... I like truth. F911 isn't anywhere close.

  22. Re:Obligatory on Just Add, Umm, Water · · Score: 1

    That's an old song.

    You're in the Army now
    You're not behind a plow
    You'll never get rich (or You're diggin a ditch)
    You son of a bitch
    You're in the Army now.

  23. Re:the interesting thing on Mozilla Developers Respond to Malware · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I think we all know that whatever is the popular software is what will be targeted. . .

    This isn't necessarily true. Just look at Apache for an example.

  24. Re:I'd still rather on Mozilla Developers Respond to Malware · · Score: 1

    If you can change your ". . .proxy server settings and avoid their proxy completely", your network has bigger problems than your "subverting" their proxy.

    You may be right about the folks in your IT department being morons though.

  25. Re:Prices, etc... on Americans Read Fewer Books · · Score: 1

    There are lots of people who do not have the luxury of a public library (or they do have one and it is shite). Many like me have no public library. I'm an expat living in Japan. I can speak a decent amount of Japanees, but I don't know enough Kanji to read a newspaper, let alone a book.

    Books ARE unjustifiably expensive regardless of access to a stocked public library.
