    Laissez-Faire = The phrase you were looking for Les afaire = not a word or phrase

  2. Re:Multiplatform Flash? on Microsoft Moves in on the Graphics Market · · Score: 1

    Let them both die and the world will be a better place. I'm talking primarily about Flash and Silverlight.

  3. Re:Oddly enough.... on OpenGL SuperBible · · Score: 1

    At the rate standards become used, that book will last you a long time.

  4. Re:Virtualizing Applications on Microsoft Says "War on Terror" is Overblown · · Score: 2, Informative

    urging schools to include social networks in their curriculum
    I think they mean use MySpace as another way to occupy kids in the 12 year government mandated daycare. I don't know what goes on in schools now, but it isn't teaching.
  6. What's the problem? on Charging the Unhealthy More For Insurance · · Score: 1, Insightful

    You're a higher risk so you pay more, seems like an insurance company at work to me.

    The store went offline just before it started, this is exactly how things are usually handled.

  8. Why is this here now? on Apple Updates iMac, iLife, .Mac · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    The event is going on for another hour still. They just added that they're updating iWork too. Damn, talk about jumping the gun.

  10. Re:It passed the certification on Mac OS X Leopard is Now Officially Unix · · Score: 1

    Um, no. The certification from the Open Group covers the OS on a specific hardware platform. http://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/xy.htm lists AIX 5L twice for Unix '03, 5.2 on Power with specific patches and 5.3 on Power.

  11. Re:Why care? on Blow-Back From Ebert's Latest Games Assertion · · Score: 1

    So? Why does anyone care about anything anyone says about their past time. Ebert has his opinions I have mine. I don't care that they don't line up.

    Again, lots of people don't care what Ebert says, he doesn't influence people. Hell I bet if you went out and asked some of his readers what Ebert things of games they're going to look at you funny and say, "I dunno." People don't care that much about him. They don't even really care about is reviews, only if it got a good score or not and still, they are more likely to listen to a friend then whatever Ebert spit up that morning.

  12. So what happens now on Cisco to Kill Linksys Brand Name · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Does the consumer stuff get better, or the enterprise stuff get worse?

    How many are accounts that are players that were banned on other accounts?

  16. Re:BeOS died due to unrealism on The Complete History of Format Wars · · Score: 1

    It was unrealism alright, but that wasn't it. The company was not worth $200 million dollars.

  17. Re:Freespace 2 source?!? on Project Sylpheed Review · · Score: 1

    I don't know about best game ever, but damn the Freespace games were absolutely fantastic.

  18. Re:Fiber to the home on World's Fastest Broadband Connection — 40 Gbps · · Score: 1

    Screw fiber. I can only get dial-up, T1 or Satellite where I live. I'd love to have any decent broadband option.

  19. Re: proprietary parts on iPhone Battery Replacement An Unwelcome Surprise · · Score: 0, Troll

  20. Re:How isn't this FUD? on FSF Rattles Tivo Saber At Apple · · Score: 1

    If 'they' wanted to make you look like a target they would. No one cares about you and nothing you do is so outrageous that people would remember you were in one city while a bomb went off in another. If they wanted to make you interesting, they'd just frame you, they wouldn't wait for you do do something.

    Take your meds and you'll be able to relax.

  21. Re:Clue on Slackware 12.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Do you still use PDP-11's?

  22. Blizzard wants to finish it on Blizzard Still Has Hope For StarCraft Ghost · · Score: 1

    So finish it. It's their game, they have the developers. They're already paying them. So finish it, it's not like there's any real barrier that Blizzard has to cross to get it done.

  25. Re:Question on Mozilla Sunbird 0.5 Released · · Score: 1

    Im thinking of replacing the toilet in my bathroom, how close is BMW to making a 325 that can fill that need? Exchange is a messaging and collaboration server, Thuderbird and Sunbird are user applications.
