  1. Re:Sun will Shine at the Big Blue on SCO Says No Way To a GPL Solaris, Moves Trial Back · · Score: 0, Troll

    Stop saying FOSS, it's lame and makes you sound like a wussy.

  2. South America is Atlantis on Atlantis: Discovered at Last? · · Score: 1

    My theory is someone accidentally sailed to South America way back when, and the Atlantis myth arose from that.

  3. Re:Our Bank on One-Time Pads To Protect Electronic Bank Access · · Score: 1

    That's Superman III, not II. (I just watched Office Space the other night.)

    And thank God Sean Connery turned down the role of Gandalf in Lord of the Rings, as well as turning down the role of Morpheus in The Matrix. (True: He was offered both parts! Scary!)

  4. Re:How it 'works' on Testing didtheyreadit.com's Mail-Tracking Claims · · Score: 1

    Haha, I figured out the trick in a cleaner fashion on my version of the same game. :)

  5. Jar-Jar is really the father! on Can Star Wars Episode III Be Saved? · · Score: 1

    Jar-Jar knocks up Padme when Anakin is elsewhere, thus why Jar-Jar is not in eps 4-6, and why the "Luke, I am your father" is remembered for centuries as the funniest comic line in a movie!

  6. Re:The nation's gone crazy. on Google to be Sued Over Name? · · Score: 1

    Like Dave said:

    If there's a new way, I'll be the first in line. But it'd better work this time.

  7. Re:Issues not limited to FOSS on Essay: Perspectives of African FOSS developers · · Score: 1

    Um, OK, a 13 year old that knows about Apple IIs and C64s, and uses Eddie Murphy terms like "Get the fuck out of here..."

    But yah, your response WAS funny anyway :)

  8. Truly disgusting on Wiring a Neighborhood? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Off topic, but you might want to see this - pictures of a guy eating out of the litterbox, then even worse - feeding cat litter to a baby. What is the world coming to?

  9. Re:Charge for Software? Quel Horreur! on Bloggers Assail Movable Type's New Pricing Scheme · · Score: 1

    Oops, try this instead: Common Dreams

  10. Re:Charge for Software? Quel Horreur! on Bloggers Assail Movable Type's New Pricing Scheme · · Score: 1

    Yes, it very much has become a synonym for both these days...

    For a place to learn, check out Common Dreams. Read a few of the articles, it'll disturb you.

  11. Viral Licensing Question on Ask About Running Windows Software in Linux · · Score: 4, Funny

    Aren't you worried that you'll corrupt Linux with the viral Windows licensing scheme?

  12. Re:Issues not limited to FOSS on Essay: Perspectives of African FOSS developers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Oh get the fuck out of here. Most of the best programmers I know do not have a shitty-assed CompSci degree, or even a degree. It's the guys who have were hacking on their Apple ][s and C64s when they were kids who grew up to be 30 year old programmers with 20 years coding experience. Far better than the jock-type who didn't touch a computer until college, and is only in it for the money.

    I will always consider a self-made programmer before I consider some fuck with a degree.

  13. Re:Why NY? Devil's advocate. on RIAA Forgets to Make Royalty Payments · · Score: 1

    If you live in Nebraska, go here

    Cool, I just found stuff belonging to my Grandma myself.

  14. Re:me too... on Programming As If Performance Mattered · · Score: 1

    Um, you're thinking of a colon ":", not a semicolon ";". :)

    (Yes, I did way too much C64 programming back in the day... Living in a house in the country in the middle of Nebraska, with no car, and no Internet even possible. And was a metalhead, so no way I was walking a mile to the closest redneck neighbors to hang out. Give you a lot of time to learn coding and explore other worlds by huffing gasoline. :) )

  15. Re:Warez = Juarez on Microsoft Drops Next-Generation Security Project [updated] · · Score: 1

    A friend of mine says Warez that way too (As Juarez). I give him shit about it but he doesn't clue in to the fact that it's pronounced the same way as "Where's", because it refers to warez, as in softwarez - the Z indicating of a shady nature.

  16. Re:How will Mono counter this? on Microsoft Assembles Patent Arsenal for Longhorn · · Score: 1

    Tremendous innovators?? I can't believe you just said that (Or you're not the real MDI). Assuming you are the real MDI, I'd say you and Gnome are far greater innovators. If it wasn't from competition from Gnome and KDE, Windows would still have the ugly, inflexible Win3.1 or original Win95 interfaces. And that's just comparing on the eye-candy front. Even with Themable WinXP, you can trick out a Gnome desktop to look infinitely cooler than Windows. And that means a lot to the non-techie crowd. "Oh neato, non-square windows!! OOOhhh!"

  17. Re:And then came VB on BASIC Computer Language Turns 40 · · Score: 1

    Tell that to the damn Java people with their stupid coffee-related terms for non-new concepts like Bean for Object. Java is a shitty language just as bad as VB.

  18. Move... on Moving Up the IT Ladder in a Poor Economy? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Boston is a dying area for techies, like Silicon Valley, less jobs every year. Beefing up your resume won't help much if there's insufficient need in your environment.

  19. Re:The flagship... on D&D Is 30 · · Score: 1

    Oh yah, well I have my D&D program on my web server. Just click my .sig. Nyaah! :)

  20. Should be good on Berman Confirms Star Trek Prequel Film Project · · Score: 1

    Captain Kirk as a little kid called Annie who grows up to be.

    Oh wait...

  21. Re:CD-RW slow rot on The Myth Of The 100-Year CD-Rom · · Score: 1

    Just flip the little thingy on the back of the disk that says "lock".
