  2. Re:The difference on Federal Obscenity Rule Nixed In Internet Porn Case · · Score: 1

    As long as there are pop quizzes there will be prayer in school.

    To be honest, the fundamentalists (of any stripe) who insist on having the .gov enforce their religion must not have much faith in it. Otherwise, they wouldn't need the .gov to enforce it.

    Reread my post. That's what I said.

  5. Make the Luser pay on LiveJournal Blackout Analysis Online · · Score: 1

    I assume that they will have the responsible luser pay for the down time plus the 2 weeks credit plus the extra hours for the staff to bring the system up.

    And what the hell was a visitor doing playing with the Big Red Button anyways?

  8. Re:Buy a Postscript printer on HP to Region-code Cartridges · · Score: 1

    For B&W, Brother's DCP-8025D is a very nice multifunction (printer/scanner/copier).

    Make sure you get it with the built-in net card.

    Yep. Like I said, bogus, huh.

  10. Re:This isn't new. on American Airlines Information Gathering · · Score: 1

    Not free tuition, but in-state tuition. US citizens of other states have to pay out-of-state tuition.

    This is bogus.

  11. Re:Olivia Neutron Bomb / Electric Link Orchestra on Xanadu: The Forgotten Hypertext · · Score: 2, Funny

    In Xanadu did Ted Nelson

    Through usage measureless to man...

    Damn. I meant 1755.

  13. Re:The right to bear software on Jail Time For P2P Developers? · · Score: 1

    Please refer to the Ninth and Tenth Amendments (as well as the 14th, which applies the 9th and 10th to the States).

    Now, tell me what authorizes any such ban.

  18. Re:Ping Times on US Air Force Building Space Router · · Score: 1

    A router in geosync, though has unavoidable delays of 250ms one way.

    Geosync is 22300 miles. c is 186000 miles/sec.

  20. Re:negatives of the review on Firefox Reviewed in the Globe and Mail · · Score: 1

    Or, it could be "Undefined behavior". FF is doing the best it can, but doesn't go out of its way to deal with UB (see comp.lang.c or comp.lang.c++ for discussions of UB).

  22. Re:negatives of the review on Firefox Reviewed in the Globe and Mail · · Score: 1

    That's not FF's fault. It's Slashdot's fault. The HTML is so buggy and non-standard that FF does the best it can, but...

    Yes, btw there is a flow rendering bug. To solve it, hit ctrl-+ followed by ctrl-minus

    Why do lawyers wear neckties?

    It keeps their foreskins from riding up above their collars.

  25. Re:I dunno, something smells fishy... on Pair Arrested After Telling Lawyer Jokes · · Score: 1

    Would the public reaction be different if they were telling racially insensitive jokes repeatedly in front of a black person?

    Guess what? Black people are born that way. Lawyers choose to become lawyers, and should be well aware of the (low) esteem in which they are held by the general public.
