    It pulls in a lot of mono libs on Linux, I see. Yuck!!

  2. Re:KeePass? on Critical Vulnerabilities In Web-Based Password Managers Found · · Score: 3, Funny

    Which in Dutch --translated for the occasion to English-- would mean 'Ouch! Tom Ate Ice".

  3. Here's one: FREEDOM on Public To Vote On Names For Exoplanets · · Score: 1

    How about Blaeu. Sufficiently enough meaning 'blue' (and thus earth-like), while deficiently enough a real living person's name, yet plenty enough a deceased's
    name who did plenty of work in cartoghraphy of the globe you land your feet on every morning.

  4. "law enforcement" on NSA Says Snowden Emails Exempt From Public Disclosure · · Score: 1

    A grand meme.

  5. Re:verizon, comcast? on Senator Al Franken Accuses AT&T of "Skirting" Net Neutrality Rules · · Score: 2

    'Bribes' is outdated. Here's what happens:
    Somebody window-dresses nicely, like Al Franken in the present case. You buy that product, and become owner of said Al. In time, dear Al performs the function that you expect from that product. It's not a conincidence that elections are won by Advertising moguls.

  6. Re:ahh typical dumb american on After NSA Spying Flap, Germany Asks CIA Station Chief to Depart · · Score: 1

    Or in the imperative the CIA has been made to understand: RAUS!

  7. Re:"Vrije University"? on Prof. Andy Tanenbaum Retires From Vrije University · · Score: 1

    Free in the sense: free to teach according to their Reformed Church biblical and religous views.
    That's what the VU was created for by Abraham Kuyper (see wiki).
    Meantime, hat's off for Prof. Tanenbaum.

  8. Re:Probable cause on Meet the Muslim-American Leaders the FBI and NSA Have Been Spying On · · Score: 1

    You left out all the WASP perpetrators of crimes in that region.
    Not on purpose, I think -- but even though, glad to assist.

  9. Don't have a garden on Alcatel-Lucent's XG-FAST Pushes 10,000Mbps Over Copper Phone Lines · · Score: 1

    Does a balcony count?

  10. Re:Why I vote Democrat on DHS Mistakenly Releases 840 Pages of Critical Infrastructure Documents · · Score: 1

    I don't know what human condition you suffer from, but I venture one of its symptoms is typarria.

  11. this is all by design on DHS Mistakenly Releases 840 Pages of Critical Infrastructure Documents · · Score: 1

    You see, those dept.'s want even more of your money, and what with terrorists keeping quiet these days and the extremists
    being ID''ed by whether or not they read Linux Journal, the DHS, TSA, NSA and any other acronym that's got the coveted 'S',
    are starting to look pathetic.
    Can't have that!

  12. Re:How Long for the Identical Copies? on Oculus Suspends Oculus Rift Dev Kit Sales In China · · Score: 1

    Identical? No.
    90 degrees tilted -- yes, I'd believe that.

  13. Re:Wow. on Two Earth-Like Exoplanets Don't Actually Exist · · Score: 1

    They're now 'Ex-o-planets".

  14. Actually, our world doesn't exist either on Two Earth-Like Exoplanets Don't Actually Exist · · Score: 1

  17. Re:seems to be a common theme on Oklahoma's Earthquakes Linked To Fracking · · Score: 1

    It's all by design. Ever heard of 'externality'?

  18. No Planes, no Trains on Train Derailment Dumps Two 737 Fuselages Into Clark Fork River · · Score: 1

    that leaves...?

  19. What's with the 'might'? on NSA Considers Linux Journal Readers, Tor (And Linux?) Users "Extremists" · · Score: 1

    Linux since 1991 (MCC floppies).
    Proud to be an extremist.

  20. What!!!? on ARM Launches Juno Reference Platform For 64-bit Android Developers · · Score: 1

    What!!!?
    Sixteen posts already and nobody (apart from the sidebar) even mentioned the word Linux?
    (Which, kids, surprise, surprise -- is what Android basically is.)

    Yes, these days, many of my smart phone addict friends stifle with quite a surprising look when
    they hear Android is Linux.

    My fellow nerds -- you have an obligation, don't let Google or Samsung get away with this!

  21. Linux and Open Source as buzzwords on Microsoft Backs Open Source For the Internet of Things · · Score: 1

    Is there anybody here that misreads Microsoft's motives?
    MS wants their foot in your Windows, your door and your fire escape.

  22. My takeaway on this: on Chinese Company '3D-Prints' 10 Buildings In One Day · · Score: 0

    Chinese, in contrast to Americans, are more interested in 3D-printing buildings than in 3D-printing guns.
    Color me misinformed.

  23. Re:get spied upon by your own govt or others: choi on Seven ISPs Take Legal Action Against GCHQ · · Score: 1

    Nice strawman. Oh, and nice strawman.
    Two strawpersons in three lines. Must be a /. record.

  24. quote of the day: "the running of a building" on Philips Ethernet-Powered Lighting Transmits Data To Mobile Devices Via Light · · Score: 1

    Another quote, one that wants a fix:

    Philips' Onno Willemse said, "Over the light, we can project a code — its number, its IP address, its MAC address
    "Philips' Onno Willemse said, "Over the light, we can receive a code — its number, its IP address, its MAC address"

    Fixed that for 'ya.
