  1. Re:RH and MDK testing..... on Linux's Achilles Heel Apparently Revealed · · Score: 1

    I installed the official version last night. I was having the same issue as you, but it seems to have been fixed. When I started it today, it detected a change in the sound card. I chose the same driver and everything was still fine. I just rebooted to see if it would do it again and it boted normally.

  2. Re:Good. on Apple and Pepsi Ad Sports RIAA Targets · · Score: 1

    This is just an ad campaign. Try not to make it out to be more than it is.

    How does it go, "never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence"?

    Something like that.

    Wow, you truly are an asshole.

    I wasn't aware of this.

    I can't wait to tell the I.T. guys that they don't have to worry about licenses anymore. By buying one copy of the software and installing it on all the systems in the company, we'll save loads of money.

    I can't thank you enough for this information.

    GNU software doesn't force anything on me. I do not distribute it, therefore I do not have to accept any terms. I am free to use it in whatever way I choose.

    What you are refering to is a castrato.

    What about all the people what were fucked over by Apple, before "something" was put in place?

    If the neutron took an electron, he would be charged.

    No, that's carpet munching, not rug chewing. They are entirely different things.

  12. Re:All this furor over the desecration of... on New Battlestar Galactica Premieres Monday · · Score: 1
    I see you failed to mention Far Out Space Nuts.

    It is a shame they are remaking Battlestar Galactica, while this classic fades into obscurity.

    the '1000 Accordians Play The Beatles' wasn't as good as I thought it would be

    I just have to know, how good did you think it would be?

    Right now it's 50-50 interesting/flamebait.

    Let me clear this up for the 50% that are wrong.

    This is not flamebait. All his points are valid. Just because you might disagree, or don't like the fact that it is critical of Bruce Perens, does not make this flamebait.

  15. Re:Who got the dogs off? on Worst Jobs In Science · · Score: 1
    In case you were wondering.

    Imagine putting on an arm length rubber glove(yes, it does need to be arm length), then shoving that arm up the elephants ass. You then massage its prostate until it ejaculates.

    I saw this on tv. It doesn't look like a whole lot of fun.

  16. Re:For Christs's Sake on Beatles Bite Apple · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    I am so torn on this. I really hate the Beatles, and I really hate the mac zealots. I have nothing against Apple computers, but they are clearly wrong in this case.

    They should have spun off the music end of the business under another name and avoided this whole issue.

    -1, dumb as a box of rocks.

    He was pointing out that since peanuts grow in the ground and "real" nuts grow on trees, the assumption that they are harvested from the same fields and could be mixed together is false.

    Possible cross contamination during processing, and packaging is the reason for the warning.

  19. Re:More Mature Games? on Videogames Attract More Women Than Boys? · · Score: 1

    Maybe not increasingly strict, but maybe it is being used as a marketing tool. For some reason, I don't think a lot of game companies are all that upset when their game gets a mature rating.

    It's not like the locations of the power plants are top secret. You don't have to know how they interconnect, just where some of them are.

    Is there any reason why a power plant would have the generator controls connected to the internet? I would think the controls would be isolated.
