    programmers do not have to do the design, you elitest coward.

  2. Re:Is that decriminalizing file swapping? on Rosen Floats ISP Fee Idea -- Charge Everybody! · · Score: 0

    i would think of it as a filesharing subscription fee, allowing you to download all the music you want since the Rsomethingsomething will be recouping its loses any. isnt this what we wanted?

  3. Re:Windows XP still built on DOS? on Should The Next Windows Be Built On Linux? · · Score: 0

  7. Re:He's a weasel on AMI Guy Talks About TCPA, Palladium, and Other BIOS Issues · · Score: 0

    let me get this straight: palladium has nothing to do with the tcpa! its microsofts own implementation of their take on 'trusted computing'. microsoft may have been part of the tcpa but they chose to make their own piece of pie.

    automatic trunks and the like why do we need hands? lucky for us we can stay the same with genetics or we'd evolve into blobs... oh wait we already have!

  10. Re:Sorry, what is the problem again? on Interview with theKompany.com's Shawn Gordon · · Score: 0

    this isnt the 'problem', people seem to want a unified *looking* and *feeling* desktop. i know this can be achieved with themes but its just not the same. one toolkit to rule them all?

  11. there... on MS Must Ship Java With Windows Within 120 Days · · Score: 0

    goes all [sun's] competition... as long as its not microsoft's own java implementation right? right? wrong. wrong. right? right? wrong. wrong. wrong.

    Lee-Daniel flipped the windows to transparent and let the sun shine in, provoking groans from the corporation.

    daniel returned the windows to their transparent state. there were groans just as the bright light flooded into the room, causing night eyes to pain.

    i suck.

    well considering microsofts version of being able to remove something is to remove start menu items then i doubt it. although, it isnt a microsoft product...

  18. Re:According to .au law on Hollywood Muscles Aussie ISPs Over Movie Downloading · · Score: 1

    well if they were then you could say computer software developers and hardware manufacturers made it possible and therefore are responsible. also wouldnt they (the scanners) have to make sure that a file name called this_is_an_illegal_movie.zip is actually an illegal movie that breaks the law?

  19. Re:Debian on FreeBSD 5.0 RC3 Now Ready · · Score: 1

    something that is stable, and that which is dead are 2 different things, unless it is dead stable.

  20. Re:*BSD Vs. Linux on FreeBSD 5.0 RC3 Now Ready · · Score: 1

    with the eventual arrival of gentoo 1.4 we should be seeing the GRP (gentoo reference platform) which will essentially be a stable 'version' (which basically means thoroughly tested packages are the unmasked ones :P). so it is your choice if you want to bleed or not.

    unfortunately for me i dont have a choice. im an update addict...

    this the one place where its good not to have a standard? drm fragmentation is good.

  24. Re:Ogg on Real DRM · · Score: 1

    no. ogg is just a compression technique / format, so unless they change the format they can do whatever they want. i dont see what all the fuss is about. where is palladium anyway?... pow! pow! pow! (XcP)=|-- ..... .. .. .
