    ARTHUR DENT: Pointless? Is that all it's got to say?! One word! "Pointless"!? What the hell's that supposed to mean?

    FORD PREFECT: Well there are a hundred billion houses on the planet and a limited amount of space in wikipedia. And no one knew much about the pod house of course.

    ARTHUR DENT: Well I hope you've managed to rectify that a little.

    FORD PREFECT: Yes! I transmitted a new entry off to the editor... He had to trim it a bit, but it's still an improvement!

    ARTHUR DENT: What does it say now?

    FORD PREFECT: "Mostly pointless".

    Actually IMHO it's better to split up big numbers with a space because you can use big, floating-point numbers in coordinates.

  19. Holy hell on Economic Crisis Will Eliminate Open Source · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Does this guy really thinks everyone has a website/blog/whatever only to make money?

    My personal website doesn't have any banner, I have to pay for hosting from my own pockets (and I haven't updated the damn thing in months either).

    I think this is only a counter-strike against this.

    The best scenario I could see is to have all the ISPs in Kentucky state to block access to the domain names/IPs of said gambling sites.
