  1. Re:first post on Why Linux Can't 'Sell' On the Desktop · · Score: 1

    Ubuntu, which you use, has PLENTY of users that can help you.

  2. Please change the name... on Don't Expect an OpenOffice/LibreOffice Merger · · Score: 1

    Maybe they should hold a contest and have people submit names for the project. Just sayin' !

  3. Re:Politics... on NASA Announces Final Homes of Shuttle Fleet · · Score: 1

    Right, if this was political, then the President would have sent one to Chicago. Since he has not part in the decision anyway, well, there goes that conspiracy plot... And we in Chicago had a nice place to put it, right next to the Adler Planetarium and the Spaceship-like Soldier Field...

  4. Re:I have absolutely no problems with govt shutdow on No U.S. Government Shutdown This Week · · Score: 1

    Do not blame him. The economy is getting better slowly, troops are coming home, countries are being more friendly to us again, no 9-11 attacks, etc... It will take time to clean up the mess the previous president caused for 8 years. The current president is doing what he can after the worst recession since the Great Recession. the Republicans and Tea Partiers are focusing on one terming this current president, not on job creation, fixing the economy, etc... Since I am part of the 300 million, I think I will vote for the party who are trying to bring us back from the brink and doing it.

  5. Re:Awww ... on No U.S. Government Shutdown This Week · · Score: 0

    The Republicans AND the Tea Party blinked... They ran on cutting money out of the budget. They did NOT meet their goals of cutting $100 billion this year. That is what they ran on and they failed. "How's that for hope and change, Tea Partiers ?" It's a little harder to do something when you get voted in to actually DO something rather than campaigning... All the Republicans have done is to show that they are NOT doing what they have been voted in to do. All they want to do is "limit the current President to one term......" Nothing about job creation, etc... That's all they want..... Sad !

  6. Re:$39 BILLION!? on Why the AT&T and T-Mobile Merger Is Bad For Consumers · · Score: 1

    They have said that they are planning to switch ALL TMobile hardware to ATT and go LTE, replacing ALL TMOBILE phones in the process which will take some time. So, if I hold on, I can go LTE and a NEW phone for (maybe) free ??? And be grandfathered into my (semi)unlimited plan ??? Guess I will wait and see..

  7. IE9 experience for me... on IE9 Released, Media Has Opinions · · Score: 0

    I installed it and NOT knowing how to use it, it closed on me three times before I realized it was ME doing the closing!!! Lol, I kept "x"ing the 2nd little box with the name of the site that I was on three time in a row... Oh well, time for me to relearn how to use Windows... or not...

  8. So, where are the.... on A Half-Gigabyte View of the Moon · · Score: 0

    aliens ? Only 1/2 of the moon ? What's on the other half ?

  9. Re:Not bad on IPad 2 33% Thinner, 2x Faster, iOS 4.3 · · Score: 0

    Why are so many anti-Apple posters on Slashdot anonymous?

    I am not buying anything from Apple.

    Huh.... Truly, that's all you had to post ? What does black have anything to do with potholes ?

  12. Re:I didn't know that on Netflix Touts Open Source, Ignores Linux · · Score: 0

    I use Linux 99 percent of the time I am on my dual-boot lappy, the one percent that I do use the Windows side is to view stuff off of Netflix, with my $10 dollar subscription. Netflix can make the client, I am betting that a lot of Linux users out there dual boot and watch Netflix using Windows.

  13. Some of those phones.... on Apple Counter-Sues Motorola Over Touchscreen Patents · · Score: 0

    are scheduled to be eliminated anyway, like the Cliq and Cliq XT, as they bring new product to the masses..... What about the new stuff they are bringing out ?

  14. Oh, woe is me... on TSA To Make Pat-Downs More Embarrassing To Encourage Scanner Use · · Score: 0

    But, I have huge junk, what am I to do ? Have 5 or 6 of em' holding me up and 2 or 3 of 'em doing the searching ? Just to jump on a plane ? Oh well.... let them play...lol !

  15. No one sees secret cable..... on When Your Backhoe Cuts "Black" Fiber · · Score: 0

    And, reading all of these stories about buried cables and whatnot, it seems to me that noone has seen people putting IN the cables. Do black suites get dirty diggin' or do they hire someone to bury cable? Seems to me that someone should have seen the cable going in, or do they just work at night ?

    Yea, gimme some of what you drinkin'

  17. A buzzkiller msg... on Apple Racks Up the Gaming Patents · · Score: -1

    Just leave Apple alone. Too much focus on them now. Who has the money to pay for all of this new stuff, when the economy has just bottomed out ?

    No idea where the money went (if this is true). No black projects, etc ???

    I pasted that example in and got -36082.25. Seems like OO could change that simple error.

    I got zero and 65535 with those examples.

  22. Re:people move, numbers change on Do Not Call Listings to Expire in 2008 · · Score: 1

    I don't think so. My new number was someone else's number and I get calls from some company that is looking for someone else. I told them that the number was recycled. I wait a week and then I get that same number again. I guess my mileage will vary..... :(
