  1. Re:Been so long on StarCraft II Closed Beta Begins · · Score: 1

    May 19, "Excellent", lots of time for a nice warm up with Supreme Commander 2 to get the rsi going.

  2. Re:40,000?!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? on Learning and Maintaining a Large Inherited Codebase? · · Score: 1

    Ooooh yeah.
    Four #includes and a line that starts "int main" is all you need.

  3. Re:Use Doxygen on Learning and Maintaining a Large Inherited Codebase? · · Score: 1

    Yes, the call graph is magnitudes more important than the class inheritance. Class inhetitance shows how the system was designed, but in long projects chasing a moving target, that doesn't say much about the current state of things (except for how data was supposed to be stored). The call chart (preferably a full chart with nuts and bolts functions filtered out) will show the actual operation of the program.

  4. Mod parent up on Can You Trust Chinese Computer Equipment? · · Score: 1

    This (TA) is just prewar propaganda.

  5. mark parent redundant on 2 Displays and 2 Workspaces With Linux and X? · · Score: 1

    He wasn't asking for a frekkken googling, he was asking for working solutions. Have you tried xmove? did it work well? no is the answer one of those questions.

  6. Re:did you also have a coca-cola(TM) on Crazy Firewall Log Activity — What Does It Mean? · · Score: 1

    No, he is not selling those.

  8. best NFS ever on Former Exec Says Electronic Arts "Is In the Wrong Business" · · Score: 1

    You are wrong. Underground was not worth the time it took to install.
    a) Imagine driving a real car with keyboard.
    b) very few after the patch
    c) never happened to me
    d) never happened to me
    e) never happened to me
    f) Instead of fudging up the car to get the stats right, they focused on getting cars that handles like cars (instead of bobsleighs)
    Can't say its the best game in the genre but at least its a good heir to Sports Car GT (its even the same game engine even if a later generation) and surely by far the best NFS title ever.
    It is also the best attempt so far to give arcade and realistic handling in the same game. Even on easy the car feels like a car.

  9. Re:But... on Google Attackers Identified as Chinese Government · · Score: 2, Interesting

    How sure are we this whole article isn't propaganda (from PNAC)? /Trust no one

  10. Re:We don't need e-ink on New Color E-Reader Tech To Challenge E-Ink Dominance · · Score: 1

    Sadly, this ignorant is as ignorant as the general public. The glossy readers based on inferior technology will sell millions (but will not be used)

  11. Re:Undocumented features! on Windows 7 Has Lots of "God Modes" · · Score: 1

    And the name is horrible, for something that sounds as cool as "god mode" I demand at least local privilege escalation. A frekkin short cut is not enough.

  12. Re:here it goes...not to troll but to prove a poin on Former Congressman Learns About Streisand Effect · · Score: 1
    I suggest a million dollar hit single.

    If thats not catchy enough I suggest limerick. I'll give the beginning, some one more talented please complete it.

    Please, his current and forever future title is "Rapist".

  14. Re:I may try Arch on Why Top Linux Distros Are For Different Users · · Score: 1

    It is neat. It is very light weight and does not start any services you do not configure to start. But it is not very polished in the QA departement. My install and then upgrade to latest everything required fixing from rescuecd three times. But when fixing is needed it is easy to do. To rollback a broken packet just untar a working version and thats it, etc. It does need a little bit more maintenance than just running "yum -y upgrade" or "apt-get upgrade" once in a while but you get alot for that price if you are willing to pay it.

  15. Re:monolithic kernel on Nouveau NVIDIA Driver To Enter Linux 2.6.33 Kernel · · Score: 1

    Woosh! Look up the word "factoid"!

  18. Re:Documentation is very lacking on Is Linux Documentation Lacking? · · Score: 1

    Yes please, preferably by converting all info pages to man pages or html (so I don't have to run some man2html cgi script) Death to info!

  19. mod parent insightful on Go, Google's New Open Source Programming Language · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Finally, a C++ user giving clues for a better C++, instead of the usual ones from non users.

  20. Re:Virtualization has worked on IT Snake Oil — Six Tech Cure-Alls That Went Bunk · · Score: 1
    Ah, so the article isn't the load of crap it looks like.

    The true version of the [insert snake oil from the article] works as intended with fantastic results. The dreamed up "silver bullet" solution produced by american salesmen does not.

    So a summary to the article would be: Things does not solve problems they are not supposed to solve, even if the marketing departement claims so.

  21. Re:What? CASE was a success! on IT Snake Oil — Six Tech Cure-Alls That Went Bunk · · Score: 1

    No, thats the buzzword sci-fi variant of CASE (that no sane man beleved in, only MBAs and Rational Rose sales force). Real CASE is about syntax aware editors and other tools that aids the developer (what gp is on about)
