  1. Oh the memories on Delphi Turns 10 · · Score: 2, Funny

    Delphi is the one and only language I wrote something in, for Windows. IIRC, I wrote a simple text editor.

    Then, I decided programming wasn't my thing, and moved on to OS whoring.

    Oh, the good ol' days . . .

  2. Who cares! on Twenty New Linux Cell Phones On The Way · · Score: 1

    I'm not so much interested in what OS the phone runs. Not until mobiles phones are faster.

    Right now my biggest point of frustration is how slow my phone can move between functions, and how long it takes to open something as simple as the calculator.

    I have a Nokia 6820b, not a cheapo or old phone. I'd expect more from a $200+ USD phone.

    VIM!

  4. Re:Oh no! on Beware The Rotundus Rover · · Score: 1

    We can't 'run', our legs have atrophied too far into oblivion!

  5. Re:Um. Okay...? on Making the Most of Your Halo 2 RSS Feed · · Score: 1

    I don't think anyone has ever offered it as an RSS feed though.

    Old concept, using new tech.

  6. Dying? on The Death of the Music CD · · Score: 1

    Hmm, and to think, I just bought 3 CDs yesterday.

  7. Re:So the new audio format will be... on The Death of the Music CD · · Score: 1

    Super high tech, yo.

  8. Re:This on AlphaGrip Starts Mass Production · · Score: 1

    Hah, right on.

    If I had the mod points, I'd toss one your way. :)

  9. Butterflies and hurricanes. on Genetic Engineers Barking Up the Wrong Trees? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    So, people start using grass and other pants that are geneticly engineered plants. What sort of impact is this going to have on the local insect population? YOu might not care if there are less bugs, but the fish in your local streams and rivers might care quite a bit. Also the other critters that eat the fish could be impacted.

  10. I'll believe it when I see it. on Microsoft: The Faint Smell of Rot · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Microsoft is dying, the same way that Apple and FreeBSd are Dying.

    I'd surely be socked if they did die. But I'd bet money they won't. In fact, I have.

  11. it might not be the fastest. . . on Browser Speed Comparisons · · Score: 1

    . . . but nothing beats it's stability on my 500MHz G4 powerbook.

    When you can't have speed, it's nice to have stability.

  12. Re:Other Effects? on Images of Ocean Floor Show Effects of Tsunami · · Score: 1

    black smokers

    What's this?

  13. Re:True Story: on Does the Octopus Hold the Key To Robot Design? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Some times I drive it around town. I get pulled over a lot, but I think it's worth not having to worry about traffic.

  14. Re:I don't want to miss the opportunity to give pr on Python Used as Modding Language for Battlefield 2 · · Score: 1

    BF 1918?

    Peopel shooting at eachother from trenches 100 yards away from eachother or so?

    That sounds as dumb as BF 1860.
    Marching in formation, shooting eachother in nicely formed colomns.

  15. Re:True Story: on Does the Octopus Hold the Key To Robot Design? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    This has definately spurred my interest in getting a tank again. I've not had a tank in a long while.

    Thanks a bunch. :)

  16. Re:Its the content, not the wrapping, but.... on Microsoft's AntiSpyware Disabled by Spyware · · Score: 5, Funny

    Me fail english? That's unpossible!

  17. Oh no! on Pfizer and Microsoft go after Viagra Spammers · · Score: 1

    I hope this doesn't take away from my spamusement fun!

  18. Re:Right on on Open-Source Technique for GM Crops · · Score: 1

    What would you want to open up? What part of government don't you understand?

  19. Right on on Open-Source Technique for GM Crops · · Score: 3, Funny

    This is nice to see. Information, free for all. In this casr especially, since it helps all of us.

    I wonder how many other things would benefit the 'end user' if things were opened. Auto safety for instance.

  20. Shyte? on Strategy Shift In The Air For Microsoft · · Score: 1

    I could have sworn the title said:
    "Stinky Shit In The Air At Microsoft"

    I need more caffeine.

  21. Re:ust work! on Zen Linux 1.0 Released · · Score: 2, Funny

    It's just a bandwidth conservation thing. They drop letters to save a bit here and ther.

    Hey, it adds up. :)

    Some times a squeeky wheel is just what you need for all of us to hear about an experiment we all don't understand anyways. :)

  25. Feel invigorating! on HP CEO Carly Fiorina to Step Down · · Score: 5, Funny

    There's nothing like a good Corporate shake up first thing in the morning to make you feel good!

    Oh, sorry about your job. :P
