  1. Ummm... on Intel And AMD's Dual-Core CPUs Investigated · · Score: 1

    I was serious.

  2. PPC + x86 cores? on Intel And AMD's Dual-Core CPUs Investigated · · Score: 3, Funny

    Would it be possible to have a dual core processor with both a PPC and a x86 core?

  3. Soviet Russia... on Game Developers: Stop Overpromising · · Score: 1

    In Soviet Russia, marketting overhypes YOU!

  4. Conciseness... on Neal Stephenson Responds With Wit and Humor · · Score: -1, Troll

    I'm afraid I lack the attention span to endure through those responses. Good thing Neal isn't running for President or else I might have felt more compelled to actually read some of that.

  5. Re:It's no big deal.. on Bungie Speaks On Halo 2 Leak · · Score: 1

    I heard that the Convenant kidnapped the princess and that the Master Chief Is going to get her back.

  6. Re:Hobby vs Home on FCC Approves BPL Despite Interference Concerns · · Score: 2, Informative

    In which case the HAM radios will work.

  7. Re:Hobby vs Home on FCC Approves BPL Despite Interference Concerns · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I think the use of historical examples like that, along with the use of the word "tyrannny" is inappropriate considering what is being defended (a frigging hobby).

  8. Hobby vs Home on FCC Approves BPL Despite Interference Concerns · · Score: 1

    So you're comparing the loss of a hobby to the loss of a home and land?

  9. Re:I have a feeling on Slashback: Pong, Economics, Stability · · Score: 1

    What about the weight of said Bush-supporting economists' opinions?

  10. Absurd! on Slashback: Pong, Economics, Stability · · Score: 1

    How can the parent get modded insightful for a post so lacking in facts, yet completely filled with speculation (as well as some wishful thinking, I bet)? Stupid moderators.

  11. Re: You forgot the most important bill on New California Law Bans Anonymous Media File Sharing · · Score: 1

    Just perform an exorcism.

  12. 1 PC here... on Nintendo DS to Launch November 21 · · Score: 1

    My sympathy goes out to you.

  13. The root cause on Get Rid of Internet Explorer - Browse Happy! · · Score: 1

    You my friend, are the reason why people still design with only IE users in mind.

  14. Re:languages on KDE 3.3 Officially Released · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure whether to make a spell checking joke or to tell you to watch more ST before attempting another Klingon joke again.

  15. Good touch typing tutor for Linux? on Is Typing a Necessary Skill? · · Score: 1

    Anybody know of any good touch typing tutors for Linux? I'm going to try gtypist and see how it is, but maybe there are better?

  16. Re:In Europe... on Microsoft and Lindows Settle Trademark Case · · Score: 1

    Money always los...I mean, huh?

  17. Re:GoboLinux - Lookin' goooooood! on Slashback: Munich, Harlan, Alacrity · · Score: 1

    From reading the article, I get the impression that looking at /bin is equivalent to looking into /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin. That is, they all show ALL executables in all the directories. Maybe I didn't get what was said, but I think this is correct.

  18. GoboLinux - Lookin' goooooood! on Slashback: Munich, Harlan, Alacrity · · Score: 1, Interesting

    GoboLinux seems to be very unique and well thought out. I wouldn't be suprised if this distro gains momentum much like Gentoo has.

    One thing I've always come to expect with Windows is that when I install some software, if I go with the default install it will go into C:/Program Files and there I will find almost all the programs installed on my computer. Linux, up until Gobo, has been harder to predict in this sense.

  19. Re:Your Sig on Windows Compatability on the Linux Desktop · · Score: 1

    You play SS as well? If Linux had a port of that game then life would be all the better.

  20. If only USB adapters were supported... on Linux Unwired · · Score: 1

    I have been trying to switch to Linux for a while, but the problem is that my wireless USB adapter (Netgear WG121) doesn't work with Linux! So I am forced to use Windows to use the internet at all. That wouldn't be so bad, except that when I am having difficulties with something in Linux, I have to go through the whole, "copy/paste error message into a text document, reboot into windows, look up problem on Google," deal. Even worse is when the solution I find doesn't work and I have to go through the process again.

  21. Spatial browsing overlords... on Why Users Blame Spatial Nautilus · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I for one like the spatial browsing method. I was tickled pink when I opened my music directory to find it still using the same size window, being sorted the way I wanted it, and having it viewed as a list rather than icons.

    I don't think any type of browsing needs defending, we just need to make the alternatives easier to find and use. I'm sure by the next release of GNOME this whole thing will be settled. Until then, if I want to specifically browse my filesystem, I'll open the "Browse Filesystem" link in my "start bar" (I can't say I actually know the proper term used in the Linux world).

  22. Re:In a most-likely unrelated story, on Meteorite Crashes Through New Zealand Roof · · Score: 1

    Actually, plantlife and weird green crystals started sprouting and giving off toxic fumes. Dr. Mobius says that the crystals are called "Tiberian." They look valuable, could be a good energy source.

  23. Re:Two objects on the picture on Cassini-Huygens Reaches Phoebe · · Score: 4, Informative

    That is actually Phoebe on both sides. The right one is a picture of Phoebe 13 hours after the left one. it takes Phoebe only 9 and a half hours to make a full spin on it's axis (It has 9 and a half hour days). Those are two different hemispheres.

  24. Re:Does anyone else notice... on Look Inside A PC-killing WIPO Treaty · · Score: 1

    This isn't new. What do you think the Roman Empire's early form of democracy was? How about Greece's?

  25. Re:Pokemon is Cartoon Cockfighting on Nintendo Pokemon Mini LCD Game Hacked · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Because I am actually training small yellow mice and large fire-breathing dragons to make each other faint.

    I know, it's not quite as dramatic as your post.
