  1. Re:IE7 on A Browser War Preview · · Score: 1

    Typically the CSS hacks rely on known bugs in IE's parsing of CSS rules. The likely cause would be that the IE team has fixed the parsing bugs but the not the rule handling. There's no version check, per se, but there really isn't a specific browser check, either.

    Of course, this doesn't apply to Javascript based style application, but that's typically gonna bite your ass anyway.

  2. Re:Don't do the math on Playstation 3 Soon Into Production · · Score: 1

    I'm reminded of the wisdom of the ancients:

    The future's uncertain, and the end is always near.

    The success of the PS3 is not yet fait accompli. Don't let your zealous heart block your vision.

  3. Re:Wow, totally opposite. on Jaffe Ditches Games With Stories · · Score: 1

    I have to disagree.

    The 'plot' in Street Fighter is interchangeable with the plot in Soul Calibur. It's just a poor set of reasons why these people must beat the shit out of each other. Soul Calibur stretches it into ridiculous lengths as an excuse to provides hours of mind-numbing beatings to force the player to invest a hundred hours to unlock everything, but it's not like anything actually happens. There are no meta-conflicts to be resolved outside of the actual fighting.

    Did you teach statistics when you were in high school?

    But there's no point in attacking a crazy idea. Crazy people, on the other hand, are ripe targets.

    The arrogance and lack of understanding of the competition that those few sentences encapsulate are breathtaking

    What the hell kind of competition do you think happens in the real world? Business isn't a kids soccer game where no one keeps score and everyone gets a trophy at the end of the summer, you know.

    What's breathtaking to me is that you think it's somehow out of line.

  8. Re:Windows Update? who uses THAT anymore?? on Deploying Windows Updates? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's sad when I trust a completely random website more than my OS vendor.

    Start masturbating, I'm going to feed your troll:

    If you don't have legitimate copies, Microsoft isn't your vendor. You get to sleep in the bed you made.

    Is that what the game is called these days? We just called it backpussy.

    Zealotry is partially defined by the ability to hold beliefs that are in direct contradiction.

    There is no joy in pointing this out.

    I guess if being transhumanist means I have be as sensitive as you, I'm glad I'm not one of you nutjobs.

    Good thing we have you to inject a unnecessary level of seriousness into conversation, Captain NoHumor.

    Not to cast aspersions on you personally, but your guarantee in this matter posted on Slashdot is worth the price of the bits that carried it to my screen.

  15. Re:Forbes was always biased towards Carly on Forbes Now Thinks Carly Saved HP · · Score: 1

    I'll grant this isn't the most sensitive, sensible, or even funny joke, but it's based on historical fact and personal experience. Muhammed fucked little girls. I don't know how many.

    Troll, indeed. Muslim losers. Learn to accept you're just as stupid as everyone else.

    I have to wonder why you think you can out-logic a belief. All your post can do is get you karma points on the scoreboard only you can see.

  17. Yeah, but what a stupid angle I took on Patriot Act Bypasses Facebook Privacy · · Score: 5, Funny

    How can a 'state agency' use the Patriot Act to subpoena a Facebook profile?

    What kind of crappy 'Ask Slashdot' is this? They just do it.

  18. Re:Yeah sure... on End of Win 98 Support May Boost Desktop Linux · · Score: 1

    To a lot of people, the latter route seems very hacker-esque. If the machine doesn't come with a particular OS pre-installed, then clearly it's not "designed for" that OS. After all, that sticker on the front of the box says "Designed for Windows XP," doesn't it? And you wouldn't want to run an OS on that machine that it wasn't designed for -- that's like putting diesel into a gasoline car. Or something.

    You're really overthinking the situation here. People mostly don't know and don't care about Linux. It's that simple.

    It's clunky but logical. I wouldn't recommend the phrase for everyday use, but the meaning is perfectly clear.

    No, the parallel isn't there. Basic internet literacy has as much to do with computer science as sugar has to do with the sweet science.

    Here's a Muslim joke for you:

    How many prepubescent virgins did it take to satisfy Muhammed sexually?

    I don't know.

    Okay, I admit the punchline needs a little work.

    I am proud of belonging to the oldest surviving line of philosophers, mystics and poets. Does that make me a casteist?

    Yes, because you're evincing pride in achievements you haven't made, by people you had no way of influencing. You've done nothing to deserve the pride you feel. It's this innate and undeserved feeling of superiority that makes you a casteist.
