  1. MORON! on Competitors Cry Foul At Windows XP, 2K Service Packs · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Hence why the CLR SUCKS!!! C# was designed to be like Java and run on any system, provided you have the CLR. However, the CLR is ONLY offered for Windows machines. You couldn't get it if you wanted, for linux, BSD, Solaris, whatever...

  2. Obviously you aren't a programmer on Competitors Cry Foul At Windows XP, 2K Service Packs · · Score: 1

    The CLR provides the ability to convert your java code to C# code, so it doesn't technically RUN java code, just converts it for you. And, if you'd read up on C#, you'd just see that it is just a Java clone.

    Sun is also complaining becuase Microsoft has decided to not include the JDK or JVM in the windows environment or on windowsupdate, whereas they're releasing their own programming environment.

  3. Re:not intuitive? on Competitors Cry Foul At Windows XP, 2K Service Packs · · Score: 1

    Yeah, you can change your default browser, but try uninstalling Internet Explorer... and while you're at it, try using any browser other then IE to visit windowsupdate.com. While we're at it, let's mention the fact that MS doesn't follow the W3C's HTML and Scripting standards, or the fact that they have an update to "fix security holes in JavaScript" when they're actually just disabling features, and VBScript has 10x as many security holes.

    Yeah, I'm basically saying you're stupid.

  4. I can't believe some of you on Competitors Cry Foul At Windows XP, 2K Service Packs · · Score: 1

    Still supporting Microsoft? My gosh! Noone's even mentioned the fact that in order to uninstall MSN Messenger, you need to tweak the registry. Microsoft said it best when they decided to stop supporting JAVA. They said something like "Microsoft has grown tired of Sun trying to use the legal system to compete with Microsoft." That's like saying, "Yeah, you can beat us at football, if we follow all the rules." Just keep reading slashdot. It's becoming quite evident that the open source community, lead by Sun, is going to break Microsoft.

  5. Wouldn't it be horrible... on Nokia calls Wireless Warchalkers 'Thieves' · · Score: 1

    And wouldn't it just be horrible if so many people eventually got wireless that there'd be no "chalk gap"? Then everyone would just be walking around with almost non-stop internet access, stealing from one company and the next... and the world would suffer, the sky would turn black and Bush would get elected to a second term.

  6. Statue of me on HOWTO: Spend A Billion Dollars · · Score: 1

    Forget rushmore. The statue of liberty would be the Statue of Me!!! Either that or I'd take 49 of my closest friends into space.
