  1. Have to ask... on Andy Tanenbaum Releases Minix 3 · · Score: -1

    Does it run Linux?

  2. Conflict of Interest? on Are Media Writers Biased Towards Apple? · · Score: -1

    Can anyone say glaring conflict of interest?

    John Dvorak is a talking head for PC Magazine. They're circulation depends entirely on the WinTel market and how interested they are in reading up on the latest Windows tips and compatible products. This is a magazine that at least once a year has an entire issue dedicated to the issue of mal/spyware. They directly profit from Microsoft's market dominance. Of course he is going to come out against supposedly biased coverage of Apple.

    "...simply cannot use a Microsoft Windows computer."

    Dvorak did get one thing right!

  3. No, no, no. on Carbon Dating & The Shroud of Turin · · Score: -1

    I think the shroud 'Patch' may be made of the big foot suit
    No you have it all wrong. The big foot suit was made out of the shroud. Duh.

    Really, great sig.

    Almost as good as your name.

  6. Re:I'll be the first to quote Bash... on Java Application Development on Linux · · Score: 2, Funny

    But anal sex is good because it works on all genders! So I guess you are saying that Java is good because it works on all platforms. Kinda redundant. Maybe you should think about considering a vocational job in the Department of Redundantcy Department.

  7. Re:Duh! on Java Application Development on Linux · · Score: 0, Redundant

    In Russia Java Application on Linux develops you. Except in Nebraska.

  8. Duh! on Java Application Development on Linux · · Score: -1, Troll

    Application Development on Linux is for old people. Except in Nebraska.

  9. Duh! on Top 25 Innovations of the Past 25 Years · · Score: 1

    The Internet.

  10. Score one freedom. Score zero DMCA. on RIAA Loses DMCA Subpoena Case Against Charter · · Score: -1, Troll

    Now I guess they will just be using the USA PATRIOT Act to go after copyright infringers. Labeling them as enemy combatants. And sending them to Guantanamo Bay Cuba for secret military trials. And some people thought civil libertarians were just crying wolf.

  11. Re:oh great [redundant post.... redundant comment] on Future Samsung Phone Plans Leaked · · Score: 1

    If they did this, you would buy one, and then never buy another cell phone ever again. They have a vested interest in ensuring that you will eventually need to replace your cell phone. Compare to Microsoft Office, Gillette, and toilet paper. It is called planned obsolescence. And has been an accept bussiness practice since WWII. Plus it is morally justified by the Bible. Think about it. God created us with planned obslescence. Get used to it because it will out live you. Pun intended.

  12. Hell yes it is. on Future Samsung Phone Plans Leaked · · Score: 1

    If I can combine my cell phone, PDA, and MP3 player into one than I would and get rid of the other three. So hell yes this is a competitor to the iPod, traditional cell phone, and PDA.

  13. HDD Music Smartphone on Future Samsung Phone Plans Leaked · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The HDD Music Smartphone is by far the most interesting of the three leaked models. Besides it running Windows it looks like a promising little device. Almost seems suited as a competitor to the iPod and iTunes. As seen by the 3GB hard drive, name, and online music service (whatever that means). The hard drive and MPEG-4 compatibility would also enable it to be a handheld video player. Very interesting.

  15. Sellouts. on IDC Proclaims Linux Is Now Mainstream · · Score: 5, Funny

    I used to see Linux play in basements and living rooms. Now they have gone mainstream. They signed that $35 billion record deal. Damn sellouts.

  16. I bet the AdWords wasn't a hoax on Alek's Christmas Lights: Humbug · · Score: 3, Insightful

    So for three years running (and this Halloween?) this guy had millions of hits onto his site.
    All the while he was raking in the dough from his Google AdWords banners.
    I wonder how much money he has made.

  17. Ah Ha! on New Apple iPod with Photo Capabilities · · Score: 1

    So that is what the 60GB hard drives ordered by Apple from Toshiba are for.
    Previous /. article with speculation found here.

  18. Better solution... on Cheap DivX Solution For Your Entertainment Center · · Score: 1

    My modded XBox is a but better solution. And assuming you already own an XBox. Cheaper too.

    How about terrorists using PayPal to transfer money? The feds don't have the right to monitor those kinds of transactions as it is a private bussiness.
