  1. The best way to secure the root account... on Sudo vs. Root · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...is to choose a really difficult password and forget it. This will secure the box from its' worst enemy - yourself.

  2. Re:Pitching in on Green Geek Beer · · Score: 1

    You don't need mod points for this anaerobic process, do you?

  3. Re:Don't type on Preventing RSI? · · Score: 1

    Yes, but don't forget to talk very clearly and carefully when saying words like rm / -rf...

  4. Re:GOTO? on PHP 6 and What to Expect · · Score: 1

    Real Programmers aren't afraid to use GOTO's.

  5. Open Password! on Root Password Readable in Clear Text with Ubuntu · · Score: 5, Funny

    Contribute to Open Password comunity - release your passwords under the GPP (General Public Password) license! Because closed passwords are just series of * symbols - it's hard to use, share and modify them freely. :-)

  6. Re:Fluff? on The Near Future of Intel · · Score: 1

    Thank you! Now I'm not feeling guilty for not reading TFA. :-)

  7. Re:Fucking LAMP. on LAMP Lights the OSS Security Way · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Indeed. I wonder why people are not using SQLite where they need a fast and not _very, very_ large database (that's the case with most websites). And if there's a need for a big and reliable db -- PostgreSQL is the answer.

  8. Re:Knock knock.. on Unlock Your Doors With a Knock Code · · Score: 1

    Invalid entry. Try again.

  9. Re:Screw you guys on China Prepares to Launch Alternate Internet · · Score: 1

    ...and blackjack!

  10. Re:obviously on VMware's Ultimate Virtual Appliance Challenge · · Score: 1

    ...Or windows install with solitaire, for users switching _from_ linux.

  11. Re:Hang on.. on Quantum Computer Works Better Shut Off · · Score: 1

    ...it can't be on and off at the same time!

    But it can.

  12. Re:Empty life on Interview with a Botmaster · · Score: 0

    He does other things too:

    ...a strip club, where 0x80 says he recently dropped $800 for an hour alone in a VIP room with several dancers...

  13. Re:A-ha! on Why Don't You Sleep On It? · · Score: 0

    Depends on who you sleep with. Oh, wait.

  14. Implanting the implant was the easy part... on Scientist to Implant Electrode in His Own Brain? · · Score: 0

    The hard part was implanting the implant!

  15. Re:It's Vim's fault on The Secret Cause of Flame Wars · · Score: 1, Funny

    Now, now, there's no need to start a flame on whitch topic causes more flames.

  16. Re:You asked for it on What's the Best Way to Write a Business Plan? · · Score: 0

    You forgot underpants.

  17. Re:A 'simple' editor ? on Understanding Memory Usage On Linux · · Score: 5, Funny

    They said 'text editor', not 'operating system'.

  18. Re:hack??? on Mitnick on OSS · · Score: 1

    No. vi is better than emacs. Also gnome is better than kde. I agree with the rest of your points though.

  19. Re:another step on Silicon Valley to get WiFi Coverage · · Score: 1

    I can't wait for my free oil :-)

  20. Re:So... on A Webserver on Your Cellphone? · · Score: 0

    No. Only in the United States of Soviet America. (USSA)

  21. Re:This is why I use Windows on KDE Heap Overflow Vulnerability Found · · Score: -1, Troll

    KDE is not an operating system.

  22. Re:mind vs brain on The Semantics Differentiation of Minds and Machines · · Score: 1

    That is the point -- if you cannot disprove it, it must be true :-)
    Also consider this: if you know about something that exists, you already have some sort of model of that something in your mind. So this means anything you know about can be modelled/simulated (at least in a human mind).

  23. Re:mind vs brain on The Semantics Differentiation of Minds and Machines · · Score: 1

    I disagree.
    If it exists, it can be simulated with more or less accuracy. The more computing power there is, the more accurate simulations are possible. So, I'm pretty sure some day people will be able to simulate a working brain -- or create an artifficial mind.

  24. That's Crap on Web Users Judge Sites in the Blink of an Eye · · Score: 1

    This article is obviously rubbish

    ... oh yeah..

  25. Re:Linux on Linux Desktops Send NASA Rovers to Mars · · Score: 1

    So then Windows kernel + KDE/GNOME/... = the best OS ever made?
