  1. Re:That's strange... on Problems With the Firefox Development Process · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Funny how people always bitch about products when they dont have X feature, etc.. But when they include all of those nice features everyone wants they bitch about how bloated it has become..

  2. Re:Korea on North Korea Admits to Having Nuclear Weapons · · Score: 1

    And this somehow makes it better? Oh he only killed a couple hundred thousand, so he's just a bad guy, not a really bad guy. ??

  3. We saved a bunch of money on Helping IT Save Money ... and Jobs? · · Score: 2, Funny

    By switching to Geico! Err umm, oops. Sorry Just pops into my head everytime someone asks about saving money. Damn those Ads!!

  4. Re:How do you pronounce it? on FreeBSD Announces Contest To Replace Daemon Logo · · Score: 1

    You pronounce it Dae-mon.

  5. Re:A complete list? on Most Common Ways to Kill a PC · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    How is parent insightful? A better mod would be funny, but even then that's pushing it.

    Oh wait, I forgot it's slashdot.

  6. Re:Messaging = IMing? on Open Source Message Queuing System · · Score: 1, Troll

    See now was that too hard? You took the time for me ;) My daily trolling is now done.

  7. Re:Messaging = IMing? on Open Source Message Queuing System · · Score: 2, Funny

    Have you ever noticed anyone who doesnt know the answer to what the person asks they tell them in a (rude) way to look it up on a search engine or to read RTFM?

  8. Re:Love the FreeBSD Handbook on Mad Penguin Launches Slackware Handbook Project · · Score: 1

    Man what did you install it on?? An 8086? Joking aside, the FreeBSD handbook is a great resource many other OSes are lacking at this point. Gentoo has another one which is nice, but not as in depth as the FreeBSD handbook.

  9. Re:Mindbender question about lightspeed. on Blazing Speed: The Fastest Stuff In The Universe · · Score: 1

    Miles Per Second, not Miles Per Hour buddy.

  10. Re:just buy a mac ;-) on Linux Getting Harder To Crack · · Score: 1

    One could assume that as well =) Oh well, maybe they will include more data next time.

  11. FreeBSD? on Linux Getting Harder To Crack · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Well they list it in the list but give no data on it what so ever. So one is to assume FreeBSD was never hacked from the data presented (or lack thereof). Way to go BSD!

  12. Re:What? on Enthusiast Hacks WiFi Into Treo 650 · · Score: 1

    I'm quite sure they know how to get WiFi to work on their future products / and or current products, since they are the ones who engineered them. But that aside, it doesnt matter what you want. I cant believe people are actually whining about getting support for this. I guess I should call up MS and tell them to support my Xbox I'm running Gentoo on.. And while I'm at it they should support Pirated games because the Modchips allow you play them. Grow up people.

  13. Re:What? on Enthusiast Hacks WiFi Into Treo 650 · · Score: 0

    Hahaha, looks like my reply was marked as flaimbait. Sorry my views dont match yours but last I checked modding a product (by means of software / hardware) did not entitle you to support, in fact it would usually void your warranty. Grow up people.

  14. Re:What? on Enthusiast Hacks WiFi Into Treo 650 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    And? It still does not mean they have to support it just because someone wrote drivers for it. It's still a hack, and not released by the company, so sorry no support.

  15. Re:What? on Enthusiast Hacks WiFi Into Treo 650 · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Why is parent marked Troll? It's true. Just because someone got something to work on a certain device it was never intended to work on DOES NOT mean the Company is obligated to dump resources into supporting it. Be happy it even works.

  16. Re:But is it OPEN? on More Linux Portable Media Players On The Way · · Score: 2, Funny

    And if you're just using Linux for your MP3's then you're better off running Windows anyhow. It's like taking a F1 race car and only using it to drive 1 block to the corner market.

  17. Re:Oh? on Single Government ID Moves Closer to Reality · · Score: 1

    Funny how the parent is marked flamebait. This doesnt affect the general population and has been under way for quite some time (CAC cards anyone?).

  18. Re:React OS is... on ReactOS Runs On The XBox · · Score: 1

    Funny, many people said the same thing about Linux when it was starting out...

    Read the guy just below my post..Sarcasm buddy.. He caught it just fine. =)

  20. Competition? on Microsoft, Sony Announce iPod Competitors · · Score: 4, Funny

    Finally some competition in Apples handheld audio monopoly? Good to see the underdog(s) stick it to 'em.

    Oh when will april fools be over... How about when SCO thanks Redhat.. Hey, what do you know

  23. Ha ha on Developing Open Source Defense Projects · · Score: 1

    Well, these april fools joke posts are getting a bit annoying. But I'll reply anyhow.. Making defensive (or offensive) systems open source is pure insanity. You might as well put a giant target on whatever you are trying to protect, with giant flashing neon lights and have them dump out massive ammounts of RF so they'd be even easier to lock on to. You could have come up with a better April Fools post.

  24. Re:Seen it before, at the grocery store. on Can Your ATM Play Beethoven? · · Score: 1

    Heh, Walmart uses Windows XP on their new self checkout lanes. Half of them rebooted leaving the people scratching their heads wondering why they were asked to log into Windows.

  25. Cross Country Wireless on USDTV Announces Low-Cost, Localized Digital TV · · Score: 1

    Sounds like cross country wireless that was pretty popular in Southern California for years and years ('92 on up) it too required a set top decoder, but of course this 'new' technology is better..
