    Yeah, Well fuck those bastards!
    Who died and made those Nazi's the new Gods of web 2.0? The last I recall, James "Kibo" Parry still rules my Internet.

    Are you douchebags clear on this point? ;-)

    Anybody who can work a mere 28,000 square kilometers will be able to fuel almost every car in the states.

    I see a .SIG here...

    Conspiracy? No. Just an observation of past and current behaviors.

    Brazilian Soy is an ecological disaster, too.

    I don't advocate an asceticism - but I don't advise being taken in by the false economies and fake breakthroughs that serve billionaires at your own expense.

    Not at the levels projected/required!

    Corn is produced through an incredible usage of fossil fuels. From the fertilizers, through the mechanized Ag cycle. It's just awful! A petro-carbon boondoggle, for Monsanto and the usual Cheney back-room.

    Then there's the "let's burn food!" aspect.

  7. Re:Time for... on So You've Lost a $38 Billion File · · Score: 2

    Data recovery.

    Geez guys! They can find the Pr0n you "deleted". I guess there needs to be more significant motivation than $38 Bil USD.

    Right. No connection at all.

    O.K.

    If you bought the extended support contract for this, you funded the development of the patch for the defunct system, and are entitled to it by contract. :-)

    Not my favourite business model, but one which is perfectly legitimate, and consistent with the terms offered.

  12. Exactly on Microsoft Charging Businesses $4K for DST Fix · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This is for OS that are out of support.

    If you bought an extended support contract, at the time of expiration, you get this for free.

    If you thought "I won't have any W2K in 6 months, so why bother" and 24 months later, the DST issue caught you - well, pay up.

    Or what value did those who paid for extended support get?

  13. Self-confessed on Is Vista a Trap? · · Score: -1, Troll

  15. Re:Why wouldn't they? on Old Islamic Tile Patterns Show Modern Math Insight · · Score: 3, Informative

    It was the Persians who did this - frequently under Arabic honorifics, so this stuff is always called "Islamic".

    Persian mathematicians invented Spherical Trig, etc.

    Persian architects built the Taj Mahal for Shah Jahan.

    Persian astronomers developed the systems and observations of Indians and extrapolated complete mathematical systems, that were the basis for both Newton and Leibnitz.

  17. Re:Great thinking guys on Viacom Turns to Joost, Spurns YouTube · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The idea here, is to block Google as the emerging media powerhouse.

    I know it is probably ill-conceived, and the touted 'intellectual property' reasons are more secondary cover - than they are prime motivator.

    Everyone is afraid of GOOG - telcos, TV and Cable channels, Hollywood and Microsoft. Watch them position and align to marginalize and even criminalize them. It is pretty pathetic. The 'content providers' especially. They want a 'pay at the gate' scenario, and will compromise/misunderstand every technology to get there.

  18. "Backup" Utility on Vista Upgrades Require Presence of Old OS · · Score: 5, Informative

    The newly supplied "backup" utility is incompatible with the .bkf file format, which goes back to 1993, and worse yet - it cannot operate in Safe Mode. Many times when trying to restore an inoperable system, Safe Mode is the only available way to access the system!

    Vista - a glossy step backwards.
