  1. It slices it dices on Transmeta Astro -- More Details · · Score: 3, Interesting

    but I wonder if it'll run Linux. If the performance is as good as thought to be, and the low-power consumption is really up to snuff, this chip could be in my new laptop. If Linus has any input, it's already Linux-ready. Let's just hope the rest of the freakin' hardware the OEM's use will be the same.

  2. I can see it now.. on The Universe May Be Shaped Like a Doughnut · · Score: 2, Funny

    At BASF, we don't make the Universe, we make it, more doughnut like.

  3. wait... on The Universe May Be Shaped Like a Doughnut · · Score: 1

    you mean to tell me the universe is actually shaped like a doughnut? Does this vouch for the existance of life (cops) on every planet in the universe? If this were really true, then this means that we really ARE living in the Matrix, but it's run by Homer Simpson. Yikes

  4. Re:Is there some rule... on Linus Comments on SCO v IBM · · Score: 1

    Well I'm still a bit lost here, how does this modded up/modded down thing work again?

    Maybe Cowboy Neal needs to explain it, I'm sure that'd get the point across. Please feel free to mod me down into oblivion.

  5. Re:Wait a minute on Taiwan Forces MS To Cut Prices, Unbundle Software · · Score: 1

    Actually I don't believe it said anywhere in the article that the Taiwanese Gov't is allowed to make changes. They can see the code, and research/audit it for bugs, and hack exploits. No where does it say MS software is now GPL'd, allowing the gov't free use of the code, where they can modify the source code and make their own operating system based on that code.

    Unless i missed the section that said they are allowed to create TaiWandows out of it, feel free to read on.

  6. Re:Truth to the Saying: on PC Baangs In America · · Score: 1

    Well, I originally heard this quote from someone in the electronic music community, dealing with the stereotype that all partykidz take ectasy. And that's what happens when your apart of that scene, you take mass quantities of drugs, and that is completely not the case. It's a general quote that can be applied to many things, *fill in any example you wish* but that's where I first heard it.
