  1. Re:Thank you Facebook on Facebook Goes After Greasemonkey Script Developer · · Score: 1

    I gave up and have glanced at Facebook twice since November. You're right about free time.

  2. Re:EULA on Facebook Goes After Greasemonkey Script Developer · · Score: 1

    As an added benefit, violating a web site's TOS is good for a year in prison.

  3. Re:The end for Internet Explorer on Microsoft To Distribute Third-Party Patches · · Score: 1

    We use Frontmotion's version and deploy through GPO. We supersede to upgrade rather than patching with WSUS. Works well for us. If Mozilla did this in-house they'd get more corporate uptake.

  4. Re:It's Just A Table on The $8,500 Gaming Table You Want · · Score: 1

    Put simply: everything's easy until you have to do it yourself.

  5. Re:That's a nice server you got there on Oracle/Sun Enforces Pay-For-Security-Updates Plan · · Score: 1

    So then he had to go-out and spend ~$150 to get the +0.1 bugfix revision called Win7. He was duped out of his money. (IMHO).

    Did either of you consider buying more RAM?

    I said thoughtfully, not like a wine snob.

    OK Pauline, How was changing 'Dispose of the rest thoughtfully' to 'Have giant pissup' fixing my original post?

  8. Re:Excellent work. on Carbon-14 Dating Reveals 5% of Vintage Wines May Be Frauds · · Score: 4, Funny

    Whoosh

    Fixed that for you.

  9. Excellent work. on Carbon-14 Dating Reveals 5% of Vintage Wines May Be Frauds · · Score: 5, Funny
    1. Buy a bunch of expensive wine
    2. Carbon date a small sample.
    3. Dispose of the rest thoughtfully.

    Some days I'm proud to be an Australian.

  10. Re:More like a flaw in statistics on Flaw In Emergency Response System May Have Killed Hundreds · · Score: 1

    It's good to see you people beat the twenty minute response window. If only your ambulances were as good.

  11. Re:I know this is a bad idea to ask this on Anti-Gamer South Australian Attorney General Quits · · Score: 1

    Why should his constituency matter? I can't vote against him, but he can stop me getting R rated games. I just wonder if he jumped or was pushed.

  12. Re:One Down!!!! on Anti-Gamer South Australian Attorney General Quits · · Score: 1

    You responded to a post about Conroy, not Fielding. A swing to Labor means more power for Conroy, not less. As for the election, it might be in November, but possibly not, depending on Rudd's poll numbers.

  13. Re:One Down!!!! on Anti-Gamer South Australian Attorney General Quits · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It wouldn't do a lot of good. The unelected defenders of our morals would have a new stooge in short order.

  14. Re:What you are doing is ILLEGAL, IMMORAL, and IIM on Auto-Scanning the Names People Choose For Their Wireless APs · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Better tell SETI. Wouldn't want to piss of the aliens.

    The guy buried in Grant's tomb?

  16. Re:Why? on ISC Releases the First Look At BIND 10 · · Score: 1

    Sendmail had so many holes, qmail was a good alternative. Thankfully, I've since been able to replace both.

  17. Re:Excel spreadsheet on Athena's Free Firewall Browser · · Score: 2, Informative

    Bah, real managers generate rules from the Visio diagrams.

  18. Re:PDF much? on Athena's Free Firewall Browser · · Score: 1

    It still doesn't beat the irony of people preventing IP theft by locking their PDFs with a cracked copy of Acrobat.

  19. Re:Excel spreadsheet on Athena's Free Firewall Browser · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Nah, we upgraded to Access. We've got VBA macros to alter the firewall rules.

    I think I'm about to hurl.

  20. Re:And why do I care? on Oracle Shuttering OpenSSO · · Score: 1

    Not the good ones. The core is still a good product. The java stuff they pile on top needs to die.

  21. Re:Oy on Microsoft Docs Indicate Future Xbox 360 Support For USB Storage · · Score: 1

    I guess they don't want to cannibalize their outrageously priced upgrade drive business.

    I figured they'd go for something like an optional SSD in the same form factor as the hard drives. Should be good for some high margin.

  22. Re:Corporations are sociopaths on Mississippi Makes Caller ID Spoofing Illegal · · Score: 1

    Clearly you must support the 7-figure judgement against McDonald's because some fat woman spilled hot coffee on her lap (because she removed the lid while holding the cup between her legs while driving)

    Your post would carry more weight if you cited a real case, not one you made up.

    Free as in sex, or so I'm told.

  24. Re:It's not just the voice acting on The Problems With Video Game Voice Acting · · Score: 1

    Writing helps, so does good talent. Silent Hunter IV kept pissing me off when the American sailors kept speaking with European accents, almost like the used the same talent from the previous U-boat games.

  25. Re:I'm skeptical on Ushahidi Crowd-Sources Crisis Response · · Score: 3, Funny

    /b/, American Media, easy to confuse the two, I guess.
