  1. Re:I recommend on Fast-Booting Text-Editor Operating System? · · Score: 1

    Brilliant! You can practice tolerance for OS bloat/crapware while writing!

  2. Deepak Chopra: Corporate Shill on Microsoft Uses "I'm a PC" Character In New Ads · · Score: 1

    I KNEW it!!

  3. And the So What Meter reads... on Starbucks Drops T-Mobile For AT&T · · Score: 1

    ...nada. Zip. Needle didn't even budge. Starbucks is nuckin futs to think they can still charge for what every half-rate cafe gives away these days. Oh yeah, they're the ones who also charge around 30% more than my local coffee place charges, and I'm more than happy to give the nice people there the difference and then some for a tip. Puh-lease.

  4. Announcing Microsoft Pig on Microsoft Says Vista Has the Fewest Flaws · · Score: 1

    Microsoft says it can fly. It must be so, or they wouldn't say it.

  5. Dropped Comcast like a live grenade on FCC To investigate Comcast Bittorrent Meddling · · Score: 1

    I'm paying slightly more and getting slower online speeds with DSL instead of cable, but it was worth it to stop funding these creeps.

  6. If you divorce your wife in Kentucky... on Creationism Museum Opening in Kentucky · · Score: 1

    ...is she still your sister?

  7. Defending the right to steal technology on Microsoft Details FOSS Patent Breaches · · Score: 1

    Nothing good has ever come from Redmond. They've stolen everything right from the beginning (ripped off Seattle Software's CP/M). So, naturally they get touchy about their rights to what they didn't create.

  8. Um, don't talk on the phone while driving? on Death of the Button? Analog vs. Digital · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Come on, it's just plain stupid to try to talk on the phone while driving. Period. Studies have conclusively demonstrated it, so just don't do it becuase you're going to run over my kid and then I will have to kill you.

  9. Write your representatives! on Record Labels Struggle With the Album's Demise · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Even a Republican must see how wrong using unfair taxes to suppress competition is and how the recording industry must be stopped.

  10. Re:Simply on Surprise, Windows Listed as Most Secure OS · · Score: 1

    Picture Steve Ballmer: "Arrogance! Arrogance, arrogance, arrogance, arrogance!..."

  11. Best/easiest Linux on Ideal Linux System for Newbies? · · Score: 1

    Ubuntu, hands down. You can get under the hood as much or as little as you want and both are much easier than Red Hat and I would guess other distros.

  12. Because they think they can dictate web standards on Why Does Everyone Hate Microsoft? · · Score: 1

    Ask anyone fluent in CSS what's wrong with Internet Exploder and you'll hear these two words (most likely along with some other invectives): Box model. It's the 'C' for consortium in W3C that makes it a good thing.

  13. Re:*boggle* on Open Source is 'Not Reliable or Dependable' · · Score: 1

    No kidding!!! Number of crashes on all of my Macs over the last 6 years: 0. Number of crashes from Windows: 1-4 per day.

  14. Exactly on Vista May Put Anti-Spyware Companies Out · · Score: 1

    If you tie your horse to a POS cart, well, you've just wasted your horse. (Are the lions of my metaphor treading on the chameleons of your discretion?)
