  1. Re:It seems ironic... on Ballmer Scorns Apple As a $500 Logo · · Score: 4, Informative

    and no retarded one-button mouse (touchpad/trackpointer)

    The trackpad is a multitouch device. If you place two fingers down and click its a right click. If you place two fingers down and drag its a scroll. Take a look at your notebooks buttons after two years. There's probably a hole worn in to the left button while the others look brand spankin new. I hated the one button crap until I figured that out. Now I have a macbook. I guess I'm tarded now.

    If the consumer is 13 and trying to get the latest GTA episode should they be left alone or should their parents have the responsibility to dispense that kind of mature content to the "Consumer"(Child).

  7. Re:Only 500? on Blood Vessel Shunt May Save Limbs In War · · Score: 2, Informative

    Most IED injuries are traumatic brain injuries. Those are concussions from the shockwave of the blast. 500 soldiers out of 3500 casualties is only 1/7th of the injuries, so why are you bitching about statistics.

  11. Computer Hippies are the Worst on IceWeasel — Why Closed Source Wins · · Score: 1

    Has it really gotten to the point where we cry about copyrights applied to the artwork in a program, or the plugins. The code is all open source, so what do they stand to gain by this other than a symbolically different browser they can brag about to their nerdy friends.

    Why does firefox need to be 'more' open source?

    Goddamn TurdWeasel.

  12. Re:Why in the IDE? on How to use Subversion with Eclipse · · Score: 1

    You left out the part about the foil hat. SVN for eclipse doesent put any dependence on you using an eclipse project. In fact the plugin couldnt be more general purpose. I've used it for a year now.

  13. Re:Red Hat doesn't need to do much. on Red Hat Not Seeing Microsoft, Ubuntu as Threats · · Score: 1

    It wasnt Hardware Problems it was Driver Problems and it was driver problems because the package management system made it impossible to get the proper driver for my system easily. Yes easily not totally impossible. In any case a device driver should not have been that hard.

    Second. The entire rpm system sucks. .deb packages and the apt-get/synaptic package system work much better as a whole.

    Third. Look at who sponsors Fedora. It's redhat and the systems are nearly indistinguishable as i have used both. For fun refer back to point 2.

    Fourth. Hell yea.

  14. Re:Red Hat doesn't need to do much. on Red Hat Not Seeing Microsoft, Ubuntu as Threats · · Score: 1, Informative

    This is exactly the problem that i faced when using fedora. I went through Fedora 2 - 4 and they all ran like trash. I had a NEW toshiba laptop that had a NEW intel wireless card and finding the driver that worked with the specific kernel that fedora installed was impossible(even when i found one that claimed to work the RPM's had some obnoxious dependenct that wasnt available anymore).

    I got tired of that crap. I had a Ubuntu CD that someone gave to me and i knew that it was based in debian so I installed it. I found apt-get and I never looked back. Did i mention everything worked perfectly.

    Red Hat needs to fix their S**t. I'm never using their stuff again.

    The solution to your problems......within reason.

  23. Re:If I was Sun CEO... on Quake2 Ported to Java, Play Via the Web · · Score: 0

    There is also Java3d a scenegraph based package that has clients for doing both OpenGL 1.5 and DirectX. All you do is pick the version that runs best on your comp and java has hardware accelerated 3d capabilities. And if you want to know about java based 3d game frameworks check out the Xith project. Xith is based on java3d but without all the built in safety checks making it a faster more lightweight framework. Also if im not mistaken there is also an OpenAL implementation for java too. Sounds like a gaming platform waiting for some use to me.

  25. A Developers Clothing on IT Workers Worst Dressed Employees · · Score: 1, Insightful

    I can agree that a grateful dead tshit and a f-you hat isnt the best workplace attire, but I know that at least I'm more productive when im comfotrable. The only dress code my company has is long pants and no open toe shoes(ie: no shorts and birkenstocks). This is with the understanding that if you are required to do something other than development, such as a meeting with customers or whoever, you dress appropriately for the occasion. What some assclown in the news room thinks isnt important when you're in front of a computer for 12 hours a debugging for a release.
