  2. Re:Downgrade rights on CowboyNeal Weighs In On the Windows 8 "Metro" GUI · · Score: 1

    Except my touch trackpad on my MBP and my mac mini have right mouse buttons...

    Apple may still ship a one-button mouse, but it's one button in physicality only.

    This pisses me off. I can't have two excel spreadsheets side by side unless I open two instances of Excel. Fucking win - not.

    MDI blows.

  4. Re:History on Why Apple Is Suing Every Android Manufacturer In Sight · · Score: 1

    Unless you're buying a new phone, or you are really lucky, you're not getting ICS. The Motorola Droid for instance, isn't getting it - even though it's capable of running it.

  5. Re:State =/= government on Koch Bros Study Finds Global Warming Is Real And Man-Made · · Score: 1

    No, it is the collective dishonesty of an entire nation (nay world) in which +8-11% ($$) per year FOREVER was a mathematically possible outcome.

  6. Re:faux-libertarian dipshits on Feds Ban 'Buckyballs' Magnets · · Score: 2

    I prefer to keep the CPSC aimed at finding problems that AREN'T fucking obvious, like bad plastic in car seats.

    Eating a handful of rare earth magnets runs up there in the fucking obviously bad idea if you're smarter than a 5th grader category. Fuck that.

  7. Re:Why's this a good thing? on Contest To Sequence Centenarians Kicks Off · · Score: 1

    Who the fuck cares if they pay taxes or not. By your metric, anyone who's poor should off themselves too, since they don't pay any taxes (appreciable per capita, anyway).

    Fuck off Troll.

  8. Re:I wouldn't. on Would You Trust an 80-Year-Old Nuclear Reactor? · · Score: 2

    LFTR - the greatest secret in nuclear power, because it is unsuitable for proliferation and plutonium production.

    Runs on plentiful thorium (nearly too-cheap-to-meter)
    Capable of powering Fischer-Tropche (sp?) carbon fuel generation
    Fails safe in a non-critical mode.

    Look it up. Solves 99% of our problems with nuclear power.

    [quote]I remember wondering at the time about what had happened to Skype[/quote]

    Simple, Microsoft bought them. That's why *I* stopped using it.

  10. Re:HR drones...ugh... on Being Honest In Exit Interviews Is Pointless · · Score: 1

    You're the type of power-corrupt dick I have no intentions to ever work for.

    I'm a fucking adult - if I can be trusted not to rape the random woman on the street, there's no reason I have to sign the yearly policy against sexual harassment. 20 years in the industry, I think I fucking know what sexual harassment is.

  11. Re:would i rather on Why Amazon Wants To Pay Sales Tax · · Score: 1

    A grocery's MAJOR disadvantage is shelf-life. Something you don't have with 99% of the products Amazon/Walmart sells.

    Lettuce only lasts so long.

  12. Re:When multiple major versions aren't installed on The PHP Singularity · · Score: 1

    That's why most hosting companies running Apache have rules that let you either specify something like .php4 or .php5 (mime type, IIRC), or have the #!/bin/python3 syntax. :-) This is a solved problem on Unix, which is what MOST hosting of PHP is.

  18. Re:Not only that... on Some USAF Pilots Refuse To Fly F-22 Raptor · · Score: 1

    What do you think QE2 was? Money printing. Why do you think cost of goods has doubled in the past 18 months?

    in a war dominated from the sky, mobility is key to survival.

    All of which was legal on 9/11, by the way.

    Some of which is *STILL* legal, and I know people who've gotten box cutters on planes post 9/11. I got 6" barber shears on a plane in 2002 (months after 9/11) on PURPOSE. The screener let me through with a tsk tsk.

  22. For fucks sake. on Mozilla Ponders Major Firefox UI Refresh · · Score: 1

    Keep the refresh button next to the back/forward buttons. Don't ever put it back on the right side of the address field. EVER.

  24. Reasons to be skeptical on Last Bastion For Climate Dissenters Crumbling · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Oh gee, could it have anything to do with recent findings that data has been skewed by the "scientists" to support the AGW theory? That temperatures in certain locales have seen DROPS over the past twenty years?

    That the runaway greenhouse predicted for the past 30 years has failed to manifest itself?

    The ESB was put up at a rate of 2 floors per week. It went from zero to complete in a bit over 14 months.
