  2. Re:Spyware and spam will NOT remain to be problems on Does Sophos' Switch Argument Hold Water? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Unfortunately, we don't have capabilities yet. Capabilities would allow everything to be sandboxed like that for free performance-wise, and you would see "Do you want ZOMG_TEH_EVIL_VIRUS to be able to see your address book?" and "Do you want ZOMG_TEH_EVIL_VIRUS to connect to your email account?"

    -is goes to -ii: virii, penii
    WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG! YOU DIE NOW! Every time you use "-ii" as the plural of a word whose singular isn't "-ius", God masturbates and in doing so kills 30 kittens.
    The plural of an -is word is -es. Penis to penes. Axis to axes.
    -us words *usually* go to -i but virus is weird and has no plural, ergo use the ENGLISH plural viruses.
    Some -us words, like corpus, go to corpora. Some -us words, like status, become status with a long u in the plural.
    Only -ius words, like radius, go to -ii.

    Those are the simple Latin nouns, not suffices. If anything they'd be roots(radices)

  16. Re:Free PHP bashing on PHP Hacks · · Score: 0, Troll

    Wikipedia is good despite its poor language choice. Digg sucks no matter which way you go.

  17. Re:Advanced PHP programmer? on PHP Hacks · · Score: 1

    No, that's just ironic, and also one of those laws whose name I can't remember. What's also ironic is that Alanis's song doesn't contain a single actual instance of irony.

    Congratulations, you miss the point of the post! He was looking for a popular artist that didn't support all the RIAA measures. I gave him said example. And yes, I'd say 10 million sales for an album is pretty popular.

    I say give him to Ba'al and let him torture the guy by killing and reviving repeatedly.

    Much of the Enron stock the employees got had all these strings attached designed to make it hard to sell and diversify.

  22. Re:Just So Long As You're Satisfied. on AP Looks at Piracy, Misses the Point · · Score: 2, Interesting

    How about the Offspring? They even tried to release one of their albums for free off the internet but were stopped by the record company.
