  1. Re:Black holes on World's Largest Atom Smasher Nears Completion · · Score: 0

    It is going to *fall* under gravity though, giving it a chance to collide with other particles and grow. If its collision rate is high enough to avoid evaporation, it might survive.

  2. Re:Leah? on Top Ten Geek Girls · · Score: 0

    That girl obviously gets way too much attention already. There's plenty of hot sharp boned ass around, but we're looking for women who did interesting things here, not ones we want to fuck and slap around.

  3. Re:Why not rush it? on Green Light For ITER Fusion Project · · Score: 0

    Maybe her daddy and granddaddy did some actual work. But Paris? No.

  4. Re:Sure on The Failure of the $100 Laptop? · · Score: 0

    Your internal monologue is remarkably similar to an Objective-C program. Do you work for Apple perchance?

  5. Re:Not 3ivx on iTunes Music Store Sells Videos · · Score: -1, Troll

    Ah, this is a common misconception about our quicktime codec. Technically Quicktime MPEG-4 is 3ivx, since Core Audio. In the new standard, the HAL (hardware abstraction layer) is linked directly to the MIDI server via a set of audio protocol daemons known collectively as the "audio gatemasters". These daemons handle both MPEG-4 and 3ivx in exactly the same way, stripping the PCM header and doing a pre-filtering pass without implicit stream buffering, which renders both protocols effectively equivalent. This is all true provided the PCM of the 3ivx stream does not attempt to invoke an AUHAL instance via a kernel extension. That would invoke a kernel checksum random mountpoint fault, which might lead to catastrophic overheating of the whole split-pin flying grommet assembly. You have been warned.

    Godammit man, we don't distribute porn. Please cease and desist with your confused blathering. Are you an Apple insider? Have you personally written large sections of the Mach kernel? Have you soaped and loofered Steve Jobs back in a bubbling hot tub on a hot sweaty night in downtown Cupertino? Well I have, so shut your trap.

  7. Re:Is this a first? on Apple's Bonjour Available for Windows · · Score: 5, Funny
    We will never allow OS X to run on commodity hardware. I know because over lunch yesterday in Cupertino, SJ and I had a long chat about this very issue.

    After the meal, over a delightful little bottle of 1992 Pinot Grigiot, he leaned over and said to me in a conspiratorial tone, "Hermann, for that is your true name, why do you insist on stalking me, you pompous delusional fuckwit? We're not having lunch; rather you have just prostrated yourself on the ground in front of me in an attempt to slather on my boots. As an intern in accounts receivable, you have no more right to use the royal "we" than a cockroach. Begone filth".

    Jobs has a way of being tangential, elusive, not saying what he really means. I recall, back when we founded Apple in my garage in 1976, etc etc ...
