  1. Re:Now even the submitters aren't reading the arti on Windows Upgrade, FAA Error Cause LAX Shutdown · · Score: 1

    That certainly sounds fair.

  2. Re:wrong controllers on Mechanical Pong · · Score: 2, Funny

    Personally, I would settle for a simple Tolkien Ring of them.

    That is the perfect response!

  4. Re:Now even the submitters aren't reading the arti on Windows Upgrade, FAA Error Cause LAX Shutdown · · Score: 1, Informative

    The shutdown wasn't the problem, or more appropriately, the shutdown that would have prevented the problem was missed. But also the FAA's software probably has some issues of its own that need to be fixed.

    On a completely different subject, I move that any post containing a phrase along the lines of "This is going to get me moderated as Troll" be automatically moderated Troll. Too many of us seem to use it becasue it tends to lead to the opposite result.

    I'm pretty sure that you can remove someone's liver, and still have time to burn them at the stake before they die. and you can roast marshmellows in the cheery blaze

    vim could probably be included in there to handle that last bit

  10. Re:Yes but.... on Is "Marketingspeak" Killing Technology? · · Score: 1

    my impression was that the value-adding methodology was incompatible with the new paradigm as it would indicate the fallacious possibility that maximum value would no be achieved with the current implementation without realigning the target goals in the group consciousness.
    In short, the current methodology being an implementation of the ideal paradigm and therefore inately immune to future value-added campaigns is the proper superhighway to success with maximum-value marketting and production. Thus leading inexorably to the conclusion of the negativeresponse to your inquiry.

    Translation: "No, we dont' think so."

    I thought it was the ability to be intentionally and knowingly cruel to members of any species, and to take pleasure from that cruelty while claiming to despise it.
    In other words, lacking and reflecting lack of pity or compassion.

    By which I mean, the defining train of humanity is the capacity and (possibly) desire to be inhumane.

    No this is not an original thought, merely one I stole :]

    Oh, sure, if you turn on the "randomly click the button when I touch the touchpad" option.

    Every touchpad-equiped machine I've ever used with the exception of one new HP notebook, had this option enabled by default and would randomly re-enable it if you tried to turn it off.

    However, perhaps the Apple implementation of the touchpad is far superior to the other ones, which I've tried.

    we just need to contrive to discover oil and be able to point to a few reports which indicate the possiblity of Mars developing WMDs.. we'd be over there in no time to find those weapons, and crush the tyranical martian dictatorship so we can get the martians started off with democracy. It wouldn't be about the oil though.
