    Viruses.

    Well, what if you don't want it to bloat up the output of ls? :P

  3. Re:Checkout @Mail instead on Zimbra Collaboration Suite Launched · · Score: 1
    Perl code is patetically obfuscated
    And that's different from any other Perl code how?
  4. First they IGNORE you, on Microsoft And JBoss Collaborate On Server Software · · Score: 3, Insightful

    THEN they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

  5. Re:Microsoft and JEBUS? on Microsoft And JBoss Collaborate On Server Software · · Score: 1
    That's the definition of Holy Crap.
    No, that would be Microsoft and Strong Bad.

    People who care about a decent ser...oh right, it's Microsoft. :P

    fjording rivers.
    I presume you mean fording rivers. Fjord is what Slartibartfast made in Norway.
  8. Re:Crabby Old Guy -- no blog on Blog Binging Gorges the Net · · Score: 1

    It's Maddox. His goal is to be incredibly overthetoply offensive. Read his FAQ, he explains this.

  9. Re:Burnout. on Pay vs. Happiness · · Score: 1

    You're right, except for one thing: The divorce rates are much lower in India because divorce is very frowned upon over there. It would be interesting to see comparisons of divorce rates in a parallel universe where divorce is acceptable both in a place with arranged marriages and Western-style marriages...

  10. Re:You Lose. on Central Park Media Lets Fans Cast "Outlanders" · · Score: 1

    We're on slashdot. Cool is a four-letter word.

  11. Re:What's wrong with Pot? on Bad Reporting, Not Email, Worse Than Marijuana · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Pot, and almost all other drugs, were illegalized for racist reasons. For cocaine it was blacks, for opium it was Chinese, and for pot it was Mexicans. Cigarettes and alcohol aren't banned because white people used them back in the old days, it wasn't just minorities. Yes, it's completely stupid. But then again, so is racism in the first place.

  12. Finally... on Bad Reporting, Not Email, Worse Than Marijuana · · Score: 3, Insightful

    /. admits they made a mistake...

  13. Re:Burn-out is common with Linux Admins on Pay vs. Happiness · · Score: 1

    Oh my god, you are a moron. STOP COPY-PASTING THAT TROLL!
    Or at least change ">1" to "1". Not only do you look like a moron, it subverts your entire point. :P
    You're worse than that "algorithms are evil, zomg" troll.

  14. Re:Wait a minute on Open Source Code Finds Way into Microsoft Release · · Score: 1

    Because they deserve it as they are the descendants of CAPITALIZM! (and the typo is deliberate)

  15. Re:Women on Solar-powered Handbag · · Score: 1

    Actually, there have been studies that, in general, men are more intelligent than women at some things, and vice versa. It's closely related to the Autism spectrum.

  16. Re:In soviet russia ... on SpaceNow, a New Space Education Initiative · · Score: 1

    In Soviet Russia, punchlines make YOU up.

  17. Re:Universal Warming on SpaceNow, a New Space Education Initiative · · Score: 1

    The closest we could get to universal warming would be the second law of thermodynamics. And that's happening no matter what.

  18. Re:What sort of "original" game do you propose? on Ask Sid Meier · · Score: 1
    * Nintendogs vs. Command and Conquer vs. Full Throttle - "Full Adorable Command": Send wave after wave of adorable little hand-raised puppies after a single oversized tank and its support infrastructure, to the tune of "Flight of the Valkyries".
    You forgot about the engineers...
  19. Re:In other news... on LimeWire to Block Copyrighted Work · · Score: 1

    Oh, you were referring to GGP calling it GNUtella. Nevermind. *walks out with egg on his face*

  20. Re:In other news... on LimeWire to Block Copyrighted Work · · Score: 2, Informative

    The official client died a long time ago. Limewire and all the other clients are all clones.

    Environmentalists = Nazis
    You moron, you just assigned Nazis to Environmentalists!
  22. Re:Is this a fucking joke? on Windows Beat Unix, But it Won't Beat Linux · · Score: 1

    Wrong. I can't even install the original Command and Conquer or Red Alert 1 on Windows 2000 or XP. And when I can, it gives some weird error. A lot of Windows 95-era games have that same problem--and since games are a huge market for Windows, you're wrong.

  23. Re:It Is About Consumer Protection on Playing CDs a Privilege Not A Right · · Score: 1

    The Parental Warning stickers are optional(unless they've sneaked a law on us--the RIAA does encourage their use, though). Putting them on your CD boosts sales within certain target demographics(if you don't know why, I'll assume you've been living in a box since at least before those stickers were invented).

  24. Re:Nice comment on Artist Suggesting Ways Around Copy Protection · · Score: 1

    The Gentoo kernel can write to NTFS, but it's terribly risky. I have a small FAT partition that is used to share between my Linux and Windows partitions.

  25. Re:Just goes to show... on U.S. Army To Ramp Up Anthrax Purchasing · · Score: 1

    Whoever said "Mod parent up" to this post is moronic, unless you're talking about "Mod parent +5 FUNNY".
