  1. fastest growing? on What's The Fastest Growing Linux Distro? · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    It's gotta be the copy of TinyLinux I installed on my penis before I watched "Charmed". Yes, it's that small.

  2. epinion on Backlash as EMI Hunts Down the Grey Album · · Score: 2, Insightful

    This is what's wrong with this copyright nonsense. If this was the case with other works of art we wouldn't have any of the art we enjoy today. It should not be against the law to interpret another's art as long as credit is given where credit's due.

  3. no dice on Diamond Age Coming Soon · · Score: 5, Funny

    The next girl who fakes an orgasm with me will get one of these. Then we'll see who's a fat jobless loser.

  4. chips and cars on Hack Your Car · · Score: 4, Funny

    My car would run better if it had a fucking dorito installed in it. Stupid mitsubishi.

  5. Re:Alienware on Dell's Gaming Monster · · Score: 1

    i'd laugh at anyone with a computer with a logo that was cool in 1994. i have a belt buckle with an alien logo on it that i wear when i listen to my soul asylum audio cassettes, always making sure to flip the dolby NR switch firmly to the on position.

  6. Re:I just bought an Alienware Area-51m on Dell's Gaming Monster · · Score: 1

    why didn't you build one? who cares about what place they have on what stupid business list? gaming's all about the building, tweaking, and eventually upgrading for screaming speed, not pre built crap. that's why they started the upgradeable mobile gpus with these suckers, to offer at least a limited degree of diy for early adopters, of whom gamers are a considerable subset.

  7. Re:But Wait... on Microsoft Develops XP 'Light' for Thailand · · Score: 2, Interesting

    There's more to it than that - I'm venturing they're releasing this in hopes that people will purchase something from them, not from the local "vendor" on the corner selling XP out of the back of his autorikshaw. That way they get a little money. The Linux thing is valid, but part of a larger picture.

  8. Re:Bad Platforms Make For Good Business on Why Open Source Makes Sense For Handhelds · · Score: 3, Informative

    There are plenty of ATMS that run Windows. Unfortunately, I'll see at least one or two a week with a bsod on them. If they ran Linux, I'm sure I'd still have my cash card. Then again, I don't know if Linux is hip to the whole "self-approved cash advance system via empty envelope deposit" scandal.

  9. dreaming of having a job on Dream Jobs of 2004 · · Score: 3, Funny

    period.

  10. Everything's backwards compatible on Xbox 2 - The Price of Compatibility? · · Score: 1

    WITH MAME! And it works on Linux to boot!

  11. Re:Gateway has something similiar on Linksys DVD player w/ WiFi and ethernet · · Score: 1

    new airport w/ g or old w/ b? because streaming over b does suck horribly.

  12. bah! on Embedded Linux VPN Router Near Release · · Score: 0

    I was doing this BEFORE it was cool.

  13. Re:movie title misleading? on Asimov's "I, Robot" Gets Movie Treatment · · Score: 1

    Or R. Daneel Olivaw, for that matter. Bummer. The R that starts it all and guides the universe for thousands of years, replaced by Hollywood with a Fresh Prince. He's the robot, I'm the rapper!

  14. Re:Well yeah.. on Earthstation 5 Claimed to be Malware · · Score: 1
    But he has a WEBSITE! Maybe if he posted this on his "blog" you would believe him? ;-)

  15. Re:toaster on Wind River Announces It Likes Linux After All · · Score: 1

    Can I run my brand new Half Life 2 server on said toaster?

  16. Re:idea on Ant Farm PC · · Score: 1
    yep. kevin rose is an idiot. he takes other's ideas and passes them off as his own. or, he'll think he's sweet for doing something moronic. i saw one episode where they were all excited about him having a pc/mac in one case. All he did was put one of those 5.25 mini pcs in an open bay with a homebrew mac with an external kvm switch!! (I'm sure I'll get some guy here who will explain to me the necessity for that kind of setup.) and you should have seen the one where he had all these "hacking" secrets, like how to cut pages out of a book to hide floppies. and, one of his "dark tips" is how to download kazaa lite.

    what a 1337 |-|@}{0|2, |)00|)!

  17. cowboyneal... on The Story of the tech.net.ru Crackers · · Score: 0, Troll
    does my security.

  18. Re:ha! on Diamond-coated Steel · · Score: 1

    if you're trying to make a star wars (not trek) reference, i think you're looking for "transparisteel".

  19. Re:Further Episodes on Lucas Returning to Digital Animation · · Score: 1

    If To Kill a Mockingbird was filmed today, Atticus Finch would probably look like Rambo and be mowing the jury down with an AK47, a la Kill Mo' Mockingbird...

    Sounds like a Homer Simpson/Mel Gibson collaboration. Count me in!

  20. Re:Text of Article on Lucas Returning to Digital Animation · · Score: 1

    ...and I'm sure they were updating their homepage with a story about Stephen King's death, right? ;)

  21. Re:Text of Article on Lucas Returning to Digital Animation · · Score: 5, Funny
    Thanks - I was afraid Yahoo might get slashdotted.

  22. I can't wait... on Google To Create "Blog" Search; Potentially Remove From Main · · Score: 0, Troll
    for my manager to read a book on the new "blogging" phenomenon and ask us to incorporate it into our daily workflow. Maybe then I can shove this fish up his arse.

  23. Not in my back yard... on Dan Bricklin: Democratizing the Web · · Score: -1, Flamebait
    Not having read the article, I have made up my mind that this is stupid because I use GNU/Linux and anyone who doesn't is an idiot and doesn't deserve to use the Internet.

  24. Re:There is a more insidious thing about Linux on Linux Desktop Myths Examined · · Score: 1, Offtopic
    Modded as flamebait? It's funny. Lighten up.
