  1. Re:Outlook? on Microsoft Faces Fresh Antitrust Complaints · · Score: 1

    So is outlook SUCKOPRODUCT or is it WMP?

    I happen to like both...

  2. Re:Help with next generation GIMP on Novell Suggests Linux Program Replacements · · Score: 1

    Someone who is highly proficient in Photoshop and is a seasoned graphic artist will no doubt not be interested in helping out the Gimp.

    They are happy with Photoshop.

    Also, it's not that Gimp lacks decent graphics...it lacks features that would replace photoshop.

  3. Re:After they know about computer internals... on What Should People Understand About Computers? · · Score: 1

    Onions smell, but my network doesn't.

    What am I doing wrong?

  4. Re:Red-Flag Distro.. It's just that "Red Flag" on Red Flag Linux Distributor Joins OSDL · · Score: 1

    Has anyone actually contacted Red Flag and asked for the Sources? You do NOT need to distribute the source on cd or ftp without people asking for it...and then you can charge for the media used for delivery.

    Someday I hope people will read the GPL...

    Looks like it is already being done :)

  6. Re:One More Thing... on Sorting Through the Analog to Digital TV Mess · · Score: 1

    I don't own a Digital TV.

    I bought an analog TV back in 1996, a nice 28inch Panasonic CRT TV. I have Time Warner's Digital Cable and it's working fine...I just don't have the digital inputs.

    Any TV with a COAX input will just need to use a set top box...and there isn't a NEW TV anywhere that doesn't have a coax input.

  7. Re:Damned if you do, damned if you don't on Sorting Through the Analog to Digital TV Mess · · Score: 1

    That's not what he is saying...

    12 semesters x 183 a semester = 2196

    12 semesters x 1780 a semester = 21360

    He's saying that it's 1780 for the same course load per semester...not total.

  8. Re:Google, Gmail, and orkut on Email Plugs Into Social Networking · · Score: 1

    Well considering you need to know someone using Orkut in order to sign up for orkut...how do they expect anyone to use it if they don't allow people to sign up?

    orkut is unique, because it's an organically growing network of trusted friends. That way we won't grow too large, too quickly and everyone will have at least one person to vouch for them.

    "If you know someone who is a member of orkut, that person can invite you to join as well. If you don't know an orkut member, wait a bit and most likely you soon will.

    We look forward to having you as part of the orkut community. "

    Bullshit.

  9. Re:XBOX 360's in Nissan's scratching disks... on 360 Disc Scratching Serious Problem · · Score: 1

    Considering that you control the game with the Nissan's steering wheel, gas pedal and brake, I highly doubt you'll be hitting much bumps while playing PGR3...

    And if you're trying to do both, you probably shouldn't own your Nissan Concept Car...

  10. Re:But on the other hand... on Superman 'Too Big' for the Big Screen · · Score: 1

    He's quoting "Mallrats"...a kevin Smith film.

  11. Re:Collaboration? on IE And Mozz Collaborate On RSS Icon · · Score: 1

    Yes because the icons are what make me want to use software. Nevermind the stability, security, standards compliancy, etc...

    OOohh look pretty icons!

  12. Re:oh yay on D&D Online Stress Beta Begins · · Score: 1

    Based on the current ability for WoW to release bugless patches, support unstable servers and keep their login server working...

    It's apparently not so simple to develop cross platform games :)

  13. Re:Why are these people so attracted to the Nazis? on Sober Attack on 87th Anniversary of the Nazi Party · · Score: 1

    I fail to see how this is not informative...or even a pile of crap.

    It's true, the Nazi's weren't dangerous or hated at first...they were a political party based on what I believe was the working man's party. That's how Hitler started, as a socialist.

  14. Re:What I didn't see on KDE 3.5 Released · · Score: 1

    My boss prints webpages and draws on them...it's like watching a child at pizza hut color the placemats...

    People do still print things though.

  15. Re:What I didn't see on KDE 3.5 Released · · Score: 5, Funny

    Yes because KDE was designed with you and only you in mind. No one else prints...NEVER! How can the KDE people be so thoughtless as to include something as useless as a printer button.

    I hate KDE! Damn them for making useful stuff. :(

  16. Re:King of The Desktop perhaps on Windows vs. Linux Study Author Replies · · Score: 1

    Isn't the most widely used DB server Oracle? Or is it MSSQL?

    It isn't MySQL, where did you get that?

  17. Re:Sony has had its moments too... on Xbox 360 Very Unstable · · Score: 1

    So we can expect consoles to no longer work after 3 years? I've had the same cdrom in my pc for more than 5 years and it works fine. I fail to see how this is easily attributed to anything but inability to foresee a potential and probable failure point on Sony's side.

    Don't defend them, they don't care about you.

  18. Re:It's just cool on Xbox 360 Hardware Disassembled and Analyzed · · Score: 1

    Actually considering there really is very few good "open" games to play on any digital medium, the zealots are pretty SOL.

  19. Re:So what? on Microsoft Threatens To Withdraw Windows in S.Korea · · Score: 1

    Business isn't about morality. Where did you even get that concept from? And morals change from region to region so Microsoft would have different morals in the US than they would in South Korea.

  20. Re:Charitable donation on Splogs Clog Blog Services · · Score: 1

    And what are people in 3rd world countries who can't eat food if they spend two dollars doing on computers, internet service and blogging?

    I am not part of the "blogosphere" but comeon ... at what point does an american company give two shits about some south african person who wants a blog? This is google, and if they can make a big difference in their spam handling by charging $1-2 per account, they owe it to their stock holders to do this.

    As it is now, Blogs from Blogspot are useless

  21. Re:This sucks on EBay Acquiring VeriSign Processing for $370 Million · · Score: 1

    Then let's consolidate all the hosts and ISPs into one blob.

    This is already happening with Dialup services in the US. What we're seeing is the end up ISPs actually using their own technology and instead buying modems, email services and tech support from other people. This causes a lot of problems, if Ikano, global pops, Allegiance or any other of the big name modem providers go under, probably 50%+ of the ISPs in the US go dark.

    Nothing makes these ISPs stand out anymore, you lose the technical edge and stand out on marketing alone...

  22. Re:1985: Taping from Radio - 2005: Mp3 from SatRad on RIAA Goes After Satellite Radio · · Score: 1

    You can't gift it to them. Gifting is distribution and thereby civil copyright infringment. (if you charge for it, you're on the way to criminal infringement.)

    So does this mean that the copy of Vanilla Ice's new album that I gave my roommate was an illegal transaction? Wow...too bad i'll go to jail for a cd that is so terrible.

  23. Re:Agreed, and everything changes on Bad Movies to Blame for Box Office Slump · · Score: 1

    I just think i should pay per minute of actual movie that I sit through. I saw Tim Burton's Ghost Bride the other day. While good, it was 75 minutes...I payed $8.50 for Ghost Bride, just like I would pay $8.50 to see Malcom X or any other 3+ hour movie...

    That and I think I should get reimbursed to sit there and watch the tripe they have for 20 minutes after the lights go out and before the movie starts...but hey lets just get to pay by the minute...

    That damn movie was like 11 cents a minute!
