  1. Re:Enough with the americocentrism on 30th Anniversary of Viking Landing on Mars · · Score: 1

    It's the fact that we're recovering from a propaganda war. The US doesn't want its textbooks to read "The commies pwned us in all but one thing".

  2. Re:Sweet! on Linux-powered Robots From France? Oui! · · Score: 1

    Actually, the name "French fries" comes from the way they're sliced, they're "frenched" or something like that. At least that's what I heard... "potato fries", which is what the French and Belgians call them(albeit translated), makes much more sense though.

  3. Re:IANAL.. on Judge Bans Thompson from LA Videogame Case · · Score: 3, Informative

    But it's not, because fornic- isn't the root to a second-declension(-us, -i nouns), it's fornix, fornicis meaning an arch(which is where the prostitutes hung out). Would be more like Fornicatione Ita!(you can reverse, word order doesn't matter here) pronounced four-nick-aht-ee-own-ay ee-tah.(The important part is that the e isn't silent)

    He was right about Apple switching to Intel, after the thirtieth or so time he said it.

    You knew CmdrTaco in 1996?

    I hadn't seen it. I liked it. Frack off.

  9. Re:Before the MSFT bashing commences on Windows Vista still Rife with Insecure Code · · Score: 1

    Except for Symantec's own software. I want a virus that only infects computers with Symantec products installed.

  10. It's still pollutive crap. on An Alternative to Alternative Fuels and Vehicles · · Score: -1, Troll

    No matter how optimized it is, it still uses gasoline, which uses oil. Oil only funds bad guys(Big Oil and the Middle Eastern theocracies) and until we have fully-electric cars and can recharge them in our own homes, we're not done yet.

  11. Re:Australian TV shows Nerds being CONVERTED to Sp on EVETV - Sport For Nerds · · Score: 1
    We have just as much need for new doctors, scientists & other professionals... as we do for top athletes.
    Bullshit. We actually need new doctors, scientists, and other professionals. We don't need athletes at all.
  12. Re:Only problem is... on Keeping Time with a Mercury Atom · · Score: 1

    Riemann manifolds? Don't talk to me about Riemann manifolds.

  13. Re:Home sweet home on Mumbai Bombings Give Outsourcing Community Pause · · Score: 1
    The question is why companies choose to outsource rather than automate...
    Automation requires research and actually doing things.

    No, not the Ori themselves, but the Orici is coming. The number of male followers of Origin is going to rise greatly.

  18. Re:Article Summary... on The Life and Death of Microsoft Software · · Score: 1

    So is Microsoft Works, but that's a name for a program as well

  19. Re:I want to see them on the stand. on DRAM Makers Accused of Price Fixing · · Score: 2, Funny

    What type of memory is "Prosecutor" memory? Is that some new-fangled method?

    Um.. the only sure fire way not to be moderated in a way you don't like is not to post.

    There are programs that take shadow files and from there find the really weak passwords.

    Did you know that some guy actually made Doom into a sysadmin tool?

  23. Re:I wonder... on Debian Locks Out Developers · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Oh. Either way, I mostly use FreeBSD now anyways. Also notice how Linux has been patched, no having to worry about 30-day cycles like with M$. Oh, and no exploit on any non-Windows system has ever allowed an attacker to get administrator access by looking in a fracking picture like one MS exploit did.

  24. Re:Your Mom's Solution to Port Mgmt on How Do You Handle Ethernet Port Management? · · Score: 1

    Not even 12-15-year-olds find that funny. Only the OP finds that funny.

  25. Re:Guest-Intruder VLAN on How Do You Handle Ethernet Port Management? · · Score: 1

    Is that an ethernet port on one end and a power socket on the other? You, sir, are a fucking genius.
