  1. didn't apple steal... on Jobs Claims Microsoft Is Shamelessly Copying · · Score: -1

    the whole idea of the graphical interface and the mouse from xerox? grrr...hypocrites... and what does it matter? we would have *very* few innovative products today if it weren't for people ripping off other's ideas...

  2. tell them... on Enforcing Crytographically Strong Passwords · · Score: 1

    That they will get hacked and their lives will be ruined unless they choose good passwords. And, if they choose a bad one, break it, fakely ruin their life so they understand the seriousness of it. Done. It won't ever happen again.

  3. ugh on Lack Of Developers Delays OpenOffice.org · · Score: 1

    it's been too long waiting already, damn it!

  4. Intel is better... on Behind the Closed Doors of AMD's Chip Production · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Yeah, sure, AMD comes out with a new shiny product. Wow. But we all know that when we want our stability, we go to intel.

  5. always was and always will be on Opera 8 Released · · Score: 1

    I have been with opera since I can remember, and I've loved it always. I'm on 8 beta at the moment, but will soon be upgrading. The experience is FAR superiour to what firefox could EVER provide, not to mention the thin appearance and customizability. Web pages show up as about 98% of my screen, not like 90% that you can get with ff. *shudder*. Plus, I hate, I despise, even, having the tab list and the address bar at the top. Mine is, and always will be, at the bottom. SO much better. Wow.

  6. good times on Mandriva (ex Mandrake) LE2005 hits FTP mirrors · · Score: 2, Funny

    Time for a massive download, an angry ISP, and a lot of waiting. Pizza and coke are on the way!

  7. food.... on loband - Killer App for Developing World? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Shouldn't we help them out with the things they need most in the developing world, rather than technology?

  8. Re:schools? hell no on Digital Enhancements or Expensive Distractions? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If you buy so many pencils that you can't afford paper, then yes, I say you show throw some of the pencils away.

  9. schools? hell no on Digital Enhancements or Expensive Distractions? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I live in a very well off area in Vancouver, Canada. Technology in my high school is a waste of time. Classes exist so people can learn to use MS Word. We run on Windows 2000. The programming classes learn what a variable is. And the machines available for homework are used mostly for games. All the history/socials/humanities rooms in my high schol have gigantic television screens that are *never* used. And guess what? Somehow, we manage to be short 300 math textbooks because there isn't enough money to buy them. Wow. I'm a geek, but seriously, get the technology OUT of my damn school!

  10. oh say can you see... on 3D Flat Panel With No Glasses · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    and now we'll be able to watch our lovely american flag billowing in 3d when we walk by our local schools

  11. suh-weet on 3D Flat Panel With No Glasses · · Score: 1

    of course you can still see 2-d pictures. the display ALLOWS you to view in 3d. boy will this be weird. just imagine all the abuses of this...

  12. ....different....? on ISPs in Argentina Must Log Everything · · Score: 1

    how is this different than in north america? I thought we already logged everything and kept it for longer than ten years? except for being in the form of a "law", this is nothing new. the same stuff is being done "legally" here anyhow. big deal.

  13. w00t on BBC Apologizes To Who Star · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    third post!

  14. american television = propaganda on Our Ratings, Ourselves · · Score: 4, Interesting

    okay, so that's not totally true, but for all intents and purposes, it is. and what isn't propaganda is mostly shows for stupid people ("lets see who'll get voted off the island next!") or for people who need to be told what they like ("you'll love this new mccdonalds deal").

  15. to be expected on Hitchhiker's Movie is Bad, says Adams Biographer · · Score: 1

    what else can you expect of a film? if you don't like what it's done to the novels, then don't go see it. simple. it happens with virtually all films that are made from literature.
