    SHUT THE FUCK UP MAN!

    That has got to be the most retarded post I have ever seen on /. and for some fucker to mark it as insightful shows how crap /. has become.

    Technically, when we have a dupe it is 'olds' rather than 'news', ya http://www.digg.com/?

    I'm going to fuck off to digg, hopefully others will fuck off with me.

    Laters dudes, it's been shit.

    PS. To all those sad loners sat by themselves in their bedroom in their parents house, probably giggling to themselves at the thought of replying to this saying that this was the most retarded post ever. You can FUCK OFF too, in fact, fuck off and get a girlfriend.

    PPS. I almost forgot. One last big FUCK OFF to all those guys on here who suffer from the 'unappreciated genius complex' you guys are the worst of all. Sort it out, our you will have a sad and lonely life.

    The term "bug" originated in the nineteenth century to mean a mechanical defect

    That may be true, however it doesn't explain why the term is associated with computing.

    This is just another crappy article cobbled together to give some exposure to the guys Google Ads account.

  15. Re:Moth. on History's Worst Software Bugs · · Score: 0

    The term bug actually dates back to the good old(e) days of vacuum tubes and extremely high voltage and volume computing, where moths (bugs) could cause shorts and thus errors. Debugging literally meant getting in there and looking for bugs.

    Not a lot of people know that.

  16. What's the difference ... on Coding and Roleplaying - Is There a Connection? · · Score: 0

    What's the difference between roleplaying and coding?

    One involves constant data-tracking and minor mathematical equations, and involves working together with small groups of people toward like-minded goals usually for long hours in a smelly and dank room, and the other is roleplaying.

    EWM.

    That fact that The French sold us out is a well known fact round the UK defence industry.

  18. Re:European ONION on Commission Suggests UK Should End Astronaut Ban · · Score: 0

    That isn't what happened at all.

    France had legally supplied the Exocet hardware to Argentina as per contract, then the Falklands kicked off bringing in a European Union embargo on weapons exports to Argentina. Unfortunately for the Argees they did not have the launch matrices required for the missiles. Attempts were made to calibrate the missiles without them but the Argees were running out of time as the full might and force of Her Majesty's Royal Navy was heading their way. Despite a promise made by Mitterrand to Thatcher that the embargo would be respected the Argees obtained the matrices through 'diplomatic channels' - probably their embassy in Paris, and those garlic munching surrender monkeys recieved they payment in full. This was comfirmed much later by the Argentinians themselves.

    The article tries to make out that we owe France a favour, which as we now know is complete rubbish. In fact the unlikely friend of Britian during these troubled times was in fact the United States who gave us 150 Stinger Missles without even questioning it - leaving their own supplies dangerously low. Guess they aren't all bad.

    The Falklands was the last true colonial battle fought by the British Army. It demonstrated the toughness and versatility of both the men and the machines that were sent:

    During the Falklands conflict 40 Harrier Jump Jets flew over 800 rolling-sorties and only once was 1 not fit for launch.

    Another example of grit and determination came from the company of Marines who ran 30 miles through the night with full 80 pound packs on their backs, fought a battle and won! A fact celebrated by the Royal Marines as now every recruit must be able to complete this run fully loaded and within 10 hours before their training is complete.

    Lessons:

    1. Don't fuck with the UK.
    2. Never, ever, ever, trust a Frenchman.
    3. The Telegraph has really gone downhill since it went online.

    PS. With all the oil that has recently been discovered in and around the Falklands we might be in for Falklands II, so watch this space.

  21. European ONION on Commission Suggests UK Should End Astronaut Ban · · Score: 0

    Thanks to the ONION, those garlic stinking motherfuckers have to do what we say now.

    They're not a bad lot really even if they did sell Exocet launch codes to the Argees during the Falklands (after the Eupopean Union ban to Argentina had come in to force). Still made for a more exciting war so it wasn't all bad - it's boring when you win all the time.

    Oh and by the way, we don't say 'five' during countdowns because it sounds like 'fire'.
