  1. Re:DC vs AC on Data Centers And DC Power · · Score: 1

    You'd think so wouldn't you. They are, after all, engineers.

  2. Re:New 'save link as ' sucks. on Firefox 1.5 RC2 Available · · Score: 1

    I seriously hate the File Browser too (I'm a KDE fan) , but how is this RedHat's fault? It's Mozilla's project.

  3. Re:Echoes of Redhat on IBM Releases Cell SDK · · Score: 1

    I see you're being a good troll. I don't use Ubuntu, but I don't go trolling it either.

  4. Re:i was supposed to get a dialog box? on Firefox 1.5 RC1 Released · · Score: 1

    Please remember to file this bug with Mozilla on their Bugzilla

  5. Re:Their results are broken on Google's Smart Advertising Leads to More Clicks · · Score: 1

    So you're implying that this was done on purpose?

  6. Re:Any chance on Big Names Back Possible Linux Standards · · Score: 1

    You are aware that Linux filesystems are case sensitive don't you? And that space requires a '\' so "Program Files" is actually 16 keystrokes just for that one folder name, as compared to '/usr/local' which is 10 keystrokes, yet is a full path.

  7. Re:The UN has finally lost it on EU, UN to Wrestle Internet Control From US · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Better yet, would be interesting if the world put a 1 month boycott on the US. The world is a lot bigger than the US, and a large portion of the world would be more than happy to humble the US somewhat. Many of the arrogant people would be suprised me thinks.

  8. Re:It's not broke... on U.S. Insists On Keeping Control Of Internet · · Score: 1

    Well you really are an idiot, there would be very little good internet without the ITU, which yes, is a part of the UN ... google is your friend.

  9. Re:Stability, ease of use and speed on KDE 4 Promises Large Changes · · Score: 1

    You must have very interesting hardware to achieve those results.

  10. Re:Whenever I hear something about 'DRM'... on The Future of Windows Software Distribution · · Score: 1

    I've wondered the same. In all fairness, I think the name should specify whose rights are being protected.

  11. Re:Fighting games maybe not as intuitive... on Plotting the Revolution's Arc · · Score: 1

    Kinda like how real life fighting make real people tired huh.

  12. Re:Two Words.... Light Saber on Nintendo Revolution Controller Revealed · · Score: 1

    I do. There's this little slot at the bottom of the controller, you can plug any periperal programmed for it, into it. Seems to me, that means you could put in a 'normal' control too.

  13. Re:At Last!!! on Old Airlift Vehicle Concept Made New · · Score: 1

    What would a high powered riffle do to this?

  14. Re:Global Impact on Controlling Hurricanes? · · Score: 1

    My point exactly.

  15. Re:Joke? on The Six Dumbest Ideas in Computer Security · · Score: 3, Informative

    I think he meant Mac as part of *nix

  16. Re:Nuclear Fusion on Linux Five Years Away From Mainstream · · Score: 1

    I never properly understood why everyone in the community is tring to get everyone else to join in. Those who want to join will join in when they are good and ready. The rest can use Windows. Nothing is wrong with that. I personally use Linux on both the desktop and the server.

  17. Re:It's remarkable how wrong this is on Researchers Say Human Brain is Still Evolving · · Score: 1

    I myself don't fully subsscribe to evolution, however your point is very much with me. I strongly aggree.

  18. Re:Licenses are only part of the problem on OpenOffice Goes LGPL · · Score: 1

    Well I ain't paying for it. But I do like it. If that's what has to be done to allow OO to remain in development, so be it.

  19. Re:-1, buy an ad. on New Winzip in the Works · · Score: 1

    I kinda like google ads. They can be informative.

  20. Re:Witness the Torvalds money grab on 1 in 9 Companies Sign Linux Trademark Letter · · Score: 1

    I guess you're assuming he's making money off this for himself. Then again you must be his accountant.

  21. Re:Kind of a stretch... on Flash EULA Doesn't Fit the Times · · Score: 1

    When exactly did hate become equal to fear? I know one begets the other usually, but they are not the same. 'phobia' implies fear, not hate. Less so dislike.

  22. Re:Uh huh. on Australian Linux Trademark Holds Water · · Score: 1

    Well to protect themselves, from even greedier, coporate funded lawyers . . i guess so.

  23. Re:s/GPL/BSD/ on HP Calls For Sun and IBM to Remove OS Licenses · · Score: 1

    Hmm. I thought they did that so they could make money, my bad.

  24. Re:Analysis Paralysis? on GPL v3 Coming Out in 2007? · · Score: 1

    Such an unneeded rant. We all know that BDS licenced applicatino can, and most likely will get contributions. But the fact of the matter is, that unlike with the GPL, it is NOT manditory,

  25. Re:Scary. very scary-Broadband modems. on Blu-Ray to Include New Copy Protection · · Score: 1

    A modem is by its very purpose connected to the internet, a 'dvd player' should not.
