  1. Re:who cares on Orkut Linked To Drug Ring Bust · · Score: 1
    Who cares, let the people some some god damn weed for the love of god.
    I presume that first "some" is supposed to be "smoke".
    Although I agree with you about the legalization of marijuana, I think that those concerns could be raised in general, especially the first one. "How can you monitor and moderate such a large, multilingual community such as Orkut?" Interesting question.

    and Insomniac(Windows NT system administrators?) and their greatest hits album International Superhits(worms, which are spread throughout the world?)

  3. Re:one question on Longhorn's Offical Name is Windows Vista · · Score: 1

    VMware works too, but I said Virtual PC because of a /. article a while back where Microsoft said that (their) Virtual PC supports Linux.

    Those are analog.

    Only if you add Virtual PC.

    A true innovator ushers in a new age.
    And Google has ushered in the new age of search that doesn't suck.
  7. Re:Mozilla support on Yahoo Releases Firefox Toolbar Beta · · Score: 3, Insightful
    And Google needs to release the toolbar for Linux.
    Google Toolbar for Firefox already runs on Linux.

    The Firefox extension system is cross-platform, or at least most of it is.

    Except the French.

  9. Re:Wait a minute... on Microsoft Sues Google For Hiring MS Exec · · Score: 0

    Except that Google probably wouldn't do things like this. That's part of the reason the "/. crowd"(which is really a myth IMHO) likes Google.

    Has the world really gone topsy turvy ?
    Sarge was released several weeks ago.

    BitTorrent. Well, it's technically not infinite bandwidth. It's more like the stuff in the Core: more people downloading makes it stronger.

  12. Am I the only one who thought of... on World of Warcraft Duping Bug Found · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Am I the only one who thought of /. dupes when I read this article?

    (Whether this post gets modded up as "Funny" or not will answer my question.)

  13. Re:custmomizer on Google Investors Find New Project · · Score: 1

    I think it's a person that custmomizes things. But I have no idea what custmomization is...

    And it's also pronounced "soon", IIRC

    It would be better to completely close your eyes

    This puts SCO as the second hit.

    Really, it doesn't matter how unlikely your statistics demonstrate something to be, it won't prevent the unlikely from happening.

    Do you expect everyone at Cessna to fly to work?
    No, but I'd expect, say, everyone at Delta Airlines to fly Delta to business trips.
    Everyone at LL Bean to live in a tent?
    No, but I'd expect them to use tents by LL Bean when they go camping.
    Just because your company makes a product doesn't mean that everybody at the company should use it for all purposes.
    But I'd expect a large percentage of the computers from a computer OS company to be running that OS. (The ones that aren't would probably be for market research)
  20. Yet more proof on Unsealed SCO Email Reveals Linux Code is Clean · · Score: 5, Funny

    Yet more proof that the Googlebomb calling SCO "litigious bastards" is correct.

    Maybe now the case will be dismissed...

    You forgot about the bazaar model.

    Here, more users = more developers = larger bazaar = more people working on security = better security
