  1. Option for communist propaganda? on Closed Captioning In Web Video? · · Score: 0

    CCTV? But... that would just mean communist propaganda!

  2. Re:An even bigger hole... on "Very Severe Hole" In Vista UAC Design · · Score: 0

    I could spend a lot of time beriding your ignorance, but instead, you can google three words--linux extended attributes--and you will understand for yourself.
    Yes, on GNU/Linux you need to Google for it to make it work, as it't most certainly not enabled by default. How convenient.
  3. Re:OS X is already virtualised. on The Prospects For Virtualizing OS X · · Score: 0

    Take a deep breath, and repeat after me: The world is not the USA. The USA is not the world.

    But you certainly are American, since...

    Naturally, the usual disclaimers apply: I am not a lawyer; this is not legal advice; seek a lawyer for information relevant to your specific situation; etc., etc., etc.
  4. The knights who say NIH? on NIH Confirms Protocol To Reverse Type 1 Diabetes · · Score: 0

    Coincidence?

  5. Crash at the first run / not state of the art on Krita 1.6 — State of the Art · · Score: 0
    Cannot start Krita: no colorspaces available.
    The application Krita (krita) crashed and caused the signal 6 (SIGABRT)
    Which part was state of the art? Neither of them I think.
  6. Re:Who pays for this stuff? on Oracle Linux Explored · · Score: 0

    There is Oracle Express Edition which is easy to "play around with". At least on Win32.

  7. Not intended to protect consumers! on Microsoft Piracy Plan Means Concerns for IT · · Score: 0

    Why do you say the intention is to protect consumers from pirated software when you know that's not the core intent?

    The intent is to protect MS.

  8. Useless? on Everglide s-500 Headphone Review · · Score: 0, Troll

    Wasn't this the most useless article posted?

  9. Via Mini-Itx boards have lockup issues on Via Launches New Line of Mini-ITX Boards · · Score: 1

    I've got an EPIA 800 board which is supposed to work as a NAS/print/web server.

    It locks up every now and them. Even when it's not under any particular load. My impression is that it's got a hardware bug and VIA are incompetent since they've been unable to fix it as the problem exists in various EPIA models.

    I've been looking for an alternative since no way I'm going to buy another EPIA ever again. Pathetic, low-performance boards with issues.

    See http://forums.viaarena.com/categories.aspx?catid=2 8&entercat=y if you care. Look for "hang", "dma" and "lock"

  10. Re:Koffice only has one disadvantage on KOffice GUI Competition Winner · · Score: 1

    I can also copy-paste text from PDF with Acrobat Reader as that's how much worth is Kword's PDF import.

  11. Re:Eh on MS Thinks OOo is 10 Years Behind · · Score: 1

    1. Price. There's no way I'm going to shelling out £100+ for something I use occasionally.

    For personal use, you'd be copying it anyway, so it wouldn't matter. For organizations, they cannot afford not to be incompatible with the rest of the world nor they want to be experimenting with an "unknown" WP.

    2. Open Document Support. I am very wary about storing things in proprietary formats.

    Completely irrelevant in the real world as no-one even knows Opendocument.

  12. Re:AutoCAD on Novell Suggests Linux Program Replacements · · Score: 1

    Yes but how does that help the Linux user? Bentley is Win32 only.

    Dude, you're been too much with your beloved Windows.

  14. Re:Kill Windows on Google Hiring Programmers to Work on OpenOffice · · Score: 1

    In order to make people realize that, it would first need to be better (and higher quality).

  15. Re:How does transparancy improve my productivity? on Windows Longhorn Beta Screenshots · · Score: 0

    Checking buzzword compliance:

    Hahaha! Ha... h... WHY IS THIS SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY? This post has appeared here for like billion times.

  20. Re:An Overstatement At Best on AMD Launches Low-Voltage Processors · · Score: 1

    This is like the Chewbacca defense! Completely irrelevant to the topic.

    Oh yeah, and the displays and the keyboards aren't either? Or... wait... Of course the sound matters!

  22. Will I live to see it on Make the Debian CDs Better by Installing popcon · · Score: 1

    I'm 26, will I live to see the next Debian stable release? I know, my days are numbered, I only have 17444 or so left.

  23. Re:*GASP* on DVD-RW Incompatibilities? · · Score: 1

    You must have felt like Ren Hoek when this happened to him:

    What, is this Tom's Hardware or something?
