    This is the best thread ever!

  2. OMG! on Apple Announcement Broadcast Live · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    OMG! libfrobber is up to 0.0.1alpha. I'm still in the dark ages with libfrobber-0.0.1pre-alpha-20030425-i386 nightly build. Did they add NPTL support with the latest release?

  3. I think ... on Apple Announcement Broadcast Live · · Score: 3, Insightful

    it's an announcement so big that no website could handle the traffic it will generate.

    No, MSNBC would just embed reporters on the moon surface equipped with "video phones".

    Wouldn't that make tatoos better than punch cards?

    Only if the IT admins get to see them applied to student bodies. BTW, what do University of Tübingen chicks look like anyway?

    Holy crap, you busted me. I don't know sh*t about punch cards. It sounded cool though.

    Now, if only you could learn to spell w00t, life would be perfect (like when you land at the top of the flag pole and get to see the fireworks).

  8. Bad idea. on Hard Drives Instead of Tapes? · · Score: 3, Funny

    A hard drive is sensitive to vibrations and has too many moving parts. The only reliable backup media is punch cards. Just don't store them near liquids.

  9. Re:PowerPC 970 and Power4 on Intel's Itanium Will Get x86 Emulation · · Score: 1

    Can instructions for the PowerPC 970 be migrated to the Power4...

    If you asking will a Power4 32-bit application work on the PPC970 the answer is yes. If you would have read this, you would have answered your own question.

    I'd rather listen to daily briefings from Iraqi Information Minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf (aka Baghdad Bob).

    Iraqi Information Minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf (aka Baghdad Bob). He's always telling us that:

    "Americans are not in Baghdad"

    or

    "Loose wieght in just 2 weeks"

    or

    "Make money fast"

    or

    "Requested information"

  14. Question on New iBooks and Apple Store · · Score: 1, Funny

    What is this thing I am always hearing about with PCs and their "Giga Hertz"? What's that all about? It must not be worth anything if Apple won't put one in their "consumer class" laptops.

    Indeed. True words of wisdom.

    That's so funny, seriously. It just might work.

  18. It's not a hude deal. on The Future of Leap Seconds · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Everyone is always saying "There aren't enough hours in a day". If the Earth is slowing down, we can just add more hours to the day to make up for it. Think of all the lives we will be improving. I mean, I could jack off at least 26 times in a 26 hour day. Yes!

  20. New name idea... on Firebird Name Debate Enters a New Stage · · Score: 5, Funny

    Let's just call it "Browser" and "eMail". That's what everyone calls them anyway...

    Example

    "My browser just crashed."

    or

    "I can't check my email."

  21. I have a question... on Firebird Name Debate Enters a New Stage · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Why not just call it Mozilla 2.0? Thats what is really is, the next major release of mozilla.

    Just a thought.

  22. Re:i wish on Essential System Administration, 3rd Edition · · Score: 1

    I'm not much of a database person, but if your vendor hasn't ported the latest version to Linux, it's their own fault. Or maybe they like have you locked into proprietary software functions.

    Our company (a _large_ plastics company) has been able to convince our software vendors to port their applications to Linux or "pay the price".

    Good luck.
