  1. Re:They will make them comply on Pentagon Demands Return of Leaked Afghanistan Documents · · Score: 1

    now that's laughable, blaming this on the monster our very own CIA made and paid, and his Al-Qaeda network that the Saudi's paid for years (Saudi's being the Bush family friends who have enslaved Arabia)

  2. Re:At first I thought Wikileaks was doing good on Pentagon Demands Return of Leaked Afghanistan Documents · · Score: 2, Insightful

    now that's just funny, government and people talking about "at risk" persons. this "war" in Afghanistan is a lie, it is NOT against those who attacked the U.S. on 9/11 (they're long gone) nor is it against the Taliban who hosted the attackers (also long gone). The label "Taliban" is instead now slapped on insurgents who are, surprise!, pissed off at a foreign occupier. Let's not give this bullshit war-for-profit-and-political-coin any legitimacy by claiming that it is somehow treason or puts people at risk by publishing information about its folly

    The international banking cartels drive the decisions of military contractors and government, they create the money for war and profit from it

    You'll find in most real businesses the telephone is the most important piece of equipment. If you have to be physically present to talk to your coworkers I would think it is you with the lack of communication skills. One might wonder what sort of GW Bush chimp faces and gestures you need seen to make to be understood.

    but none of those are required to do mission critical business computing, which is why Solaris and OpenSolaris have lost (too little too late in both cases) and GNU/Linux has won. Go ahead and flog your dead horse, but the Solari are toast.

    that's nonsense, even when in the building with the "team" most communication is done via phone extensions and email. and two-thirds of the scheduled meetings are two-thirds time wasting bullshit.

    we're wasting billions of dollars in energy and time with this "have to be physically present" mentality. we could cut the energy consumption of this country 15% at least

    sure, a country should make things and the people who do can commute to work. But that's still would leave a huge chunk of the population who could work from anywhere. we're wasting time and fuel being on the roads, only 5% of days at most would I physically need to be present at work or at client.

  16. Re:Still no ZFS. on Linux Kernel 2.6.35 Released · · Score: 3, Informative

    the lack of adoption of OpenSolaris compared to Linux has to do with real world considerations. The summary of the reasons really is that Sun waited too late to roll it out, should have done it in late 90s. That would have solved the issues: It doesn't support the amount of hardware Linux does, doesn't scale from embedded devices to supercomputers, doesn't have a couple tens of thousands of packages made for it, is much harder to admin (speaking as certified solaris engineer)

  20. Re:No torture? on FBI May Get Easier Access To Internet Activity · · Score: 3, Insightful

    false, the reason we don't torture has absolutely nothing to do with non-expectation of reciprocity. we should not torture because it is evil.

    besides, who is the real "cultural enemy", who has mass-murdered the most innocents in this fake "war on terror". It isn't any muslim nation, and the "Taliban" being fought now is not the one that hosted bin Laden. We of the U.S. are creating more "Taliban" (disgruntled Afghans who resent foreign occupier and who are thus taking up arms). This "War on Terror" is about money and and having a rallying point for an ideology and an excuse to remove our liberties. It is not in any way about fighting those who attacked us nor is it making us more secure. It is a lie, a treason committed against We the People.
