    Indeed. We don't need more taxes, we need a government with less wasting.

    I'm not for tax cuts, either, but we are paying for stuff any sane person would call bullshit on. For example, in my state the legislature had it's own DMV in the capital building. They said its so whey wouldn't have to wait in line and be harassed by "the people". Assholes.

    Documentation used to include the BLUEPRINTS so you knew how to fix it. Those were awesome.

  9. Re:And I care why? on WinFS to be available in WinXP · · Score: 3, Insightful
    Because now no other OS but Windows will be able to read the filesystem. Just another impediment to the adoption and inter-operability of Windows and Linux.

    They STILL haven't figured out how to write to NTFS, they will never even figure out how to read now.

    I don't know about you, but NTFS is fine for me. I mean, jesus, its a file system, not a damn search engine.

  11. Re:turn key maybe.. on Asetek's Extreme CPU Cooler Tested · · Score: 1

    You fail basic overlock 101. Overclocking really isn't about performance anymore (who needs an extra 100mhz?), it's about the challenge. I currently run a water cooled setup and to know they my cooling is one of only a few (there are thosands of people who water cool their PC's but even that is a very small percentage of the n00b population) of the best in the world makes for good bragging rights.

  14. Re:Great, lets parents get more detached on Microsoft Research Showcase Explored · · Score: 0
    Todays world has no place for parenting. Parenting reduces productivity and adds distraction to the workforce. Companies hate employees with kids.

    Ok, I have to admit, I hate coworkers whit kids too. Ok ok, mostly just mothers beccause dads still work and don't take time off. Mothers complain they are paid less like they don't know why. It's because they can't work. "Oh, I have to take my kids to the soccer game" or "I need to take 4 months off to have my baby. Make sure to pay me even though I don't deserve it. If you wont I'm going to sue you!".

    I mean, jesus, they choose to have those kids well aware of what it would do to their lives. Pathetic.

    I would much rather have them take it back down to earth and put in a museum. What a magnificent object, how great it be to see it and thank it for all it has done for us and our planet. It just seems wrong to let it burn. We owe it more than that.

    I'm getting emotional just thinking about it.

    We are in a pretty pathetic state in society if a freaking LIBRARY can't give access to information.

    I dare say they just provide them public domain if they are over 50 years old. Then we can see who the heartless smucks would sue them.
