  3. The next Civil War has started in our own military on Kerry Concedes Election To Bush · · Score: 1

    It started when our own troops first refused a mission in Iraq http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/3748390.stm . This was the seed that thinking, professional, educated commanders will feed off of when they realize that their job is NOT to defend America, but simply to be Bush's THUGS. They are securing oil-rich territory with their lives so that Bush's people can get richer, and it won't take long until they fire him as their commander in chief.

    Nice. I like how you backed up your reply with a screenshot.

  6. how MUCH cheaper? on Software Piracy Due to Expensive Hardware, Says Ballmer · · Score: 3, Interesting

    When you can buy a pretty good OS-less computer at Walmart.com for around $250us, that's pretty good. No, BALDmer, we need cheaper software.

  7. OUCH! on Cherry OS Claims Mac OS X Capability For x86 · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    /*

  8. I can't believe... on The Greatest And The Luckiest Of Mortals · · Score: 1

    ...that I'm going to be the first to suggest that these perls (get it?) of wisdom were given to him by Aliens to help us along. GEEZ.

  11. Anyone here work at Scaled? on SpaceShipOne to Attempt Second Flight on Monday · · Score: 1

    It must be, hands down, the coolest place to work ever in the history of humankind... except that it's in Mojave, CA.

    Anyone?

  12. Re:not terribly surprising... on Hawaii Puts Old Computers To Work in Linux Labs · · Score: 1

    THAT'S the real question: why are our schools not properly funded?? Here we are dumping BILLIONS into fucking Iraq, and our schools are begging for just thousands of dollars.

  13. Re:Not new... on Mountain Biking Helps Squash Bugs · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...and having sex works well - if you can get it, that is.

  14. Re:That's what athiests tell themselves ... on Is Science Fiction About The Future Anymore? · · Score: 1

    Oh, believe me, I've seen evil where good is supposed to be and good where evil is supposed to be. I know it's real, and I'm no athiest. I just don't subscribe to any religion. Say, how are your Catholic priests doing??

  15. Re:Hogwash! on Is Science Fiction About The Future Anymore? · · Score: 1

    I agree with everything EXCEPT that Starship Troopers was a cool-ass movie.

    EOL

  16. Re:Some religions, yes. on Is Science Fiction About The Future Anymore? · · Score: 1

    You missed the point entirely. I didn't say, "The Bible is a lie". I said that what's interpreted is for the comfort of the people subscribing to, and practicing, that faith.

  17. Fantasy sounds like religion? on Is Science Fiction About The Future Anymore? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The whole deliniation of good and evil being a comfort sounds like what it preached every Sunday across the US. Does that make religion a practice of fantasy?

  18. Cats? on A Flying Leap for Cars? · · Score: 1

    The only good cat is a null-cat.

  19. X Prize on SpaceShipOne Flight Completed Successfully · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Just give Scaled the X Prize and get it over with. If those other companies try this, they'll probably have loss of life and ruin the spirit of the whole, wonderful thing that Scaled is doing.

  20. Re:Or a better suggestion: on Newsflash: Gourmet Coffees Have Lots Of Caffeine · · Score: 1

    BTW and FYI, those palpitations are actually mini panick attacks.

  22. Dual Major! on Math And The Computer Science Major · · Score: 1

    Yeah, baby. Dual Major CS/Math... that's what I'm doing. Nothin else to do, so why not?

  23. Re:It's who you know, and what you know on Moving Up the IT Ladder in a Poor Economy? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Oh, bullshit. I'm going back to school for CS, because a bachelors from a four-year university trumps all other certs. When I hired my replacement, I expected to be swimming in applicants, but wasn't. We also specified that my replacement had at least a bachelor's, which is probably why we only got SEVEN resumes.

    Spending money on certs is a waste. Spending money on a real education is smart.

  24. It's all fun n games on Highest Human Elevation Using a Rocketbelt · · Score: 0

    ...till someone gets hurt. Then, it's hilarious.

  25. We could learn from the Russians..... on Microsoft's Long-Playing Business Record · · Score: 0

    -M$oft are sorry fucks.

    -The Czars were revolted against by the masses.

    -The masses used pitchforks and rifles.

    See?
