  1. Re:Rub my penis and cause a rupture on ActiveState Discontinues VisualPerl/Python · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Nope. I too love a classic troll.
    Bob Goatse for President!

  3. Re:Props to Tony Bove... on Interview with Tony 'Say No to Windows' Bove · · Score: 1

    iTunes? That's pretty good compared to this guy

  4. Re:SIS and James Bond on Britain's MI6 Opens Its First Website · · Score: 4, Funny

    This from the guy with the 4 digit user ID. ;-)

  5. Re:What about voice ? on Linux Instant Messengers · · Score: 1

    File transfers work fine. Up and down. At least they do with MSN Messenger as the remote client.

    Praline, and dick.

  7. Fluxbox on Top 8 Reasons HCI is in its Stone Age · · Score: 1
    HOWTO: set up fluxbox to be as efficient as possible.

    1: Set the toolbar width to 99%
    2: Set the toolbar to be at the top and centered or right aligned
    3: Set 'desktopwheeling' to true
    4: Set 'toolbar.maxover' to false

    This ensures that the top left corner of the screen is always the exposed root window (even with maximised windows), so you can always throw the pointer to that corner and right click for a menu, or mouse wheel to change virtual desktops.

    That, and set up key bindings to launch apps where you're likely to want to use your keyboard before using your mouse (like your shell, or Emacs).

    Job done.

    Who is it that comes up with the names for these pieces of legislation?

    PATRIOT - Now there's a contrived acronym. Reminds me of this: http://quotes.worldvillage.com/i/b/Red_Dwarf#.22Po lymorph.22
    CAN SPAM - Apparently, you can. Pure genius.

    Are there any more?

  12. Re:Miscalculation? on 83,431 Recited Digits of Pi · · Score: 5, Funny

    So this guy recites 83,431 digits, and you can't type 5?

  13. Quick! on Secret Codes Protect Ancient Torahs · · Score: 1

    Someone should call RMS. The Ancient Torahs aren't compatible with the FDL

    This message brought to you by CBC.

  15. Re:And if you want something really cool on FireWire for 75% Better Mac mini Disk Performance · · Score: 1

    But seriously, USB2 transfer rates on Macs suck. Especially on Powerbooks. Firewire's fine, but USB2 is slower that a week in jail.

    *bang*

  17. Re:Shouldn't have stolen that code... on Software Glitches Stall Toyota Prius · · Score: 1

    If you do dig around, have a look for the rate of accidents like these between manual and automatic gearbox cars. I have never heard of anyone confusing the gas and brake on a manual transmission.

    I know you were joking, but would it not be fairly simple to script this with the shadow direction and size in 'xcompmgr' on Xorg?

    Anyone?

    Anyone who runs scripts found on places like Slashdot without understanding them deserves to have their .tar files deleted.
