Don't worry. I, for one accept that most foreign people I meet will not know that Ireland has a nationhood, language, history and culture separate from the UK. It's fine, really.
I hate to say it, but this is not a troll, only an oblique literary reference.
It's a line from a poem by Michael Longely, a poet from Northern Ireland. The full quote goes
Here are two pictures from my father's head-- I have kept them like secrets until now: First, the Ulster Division at the Somme Going over the top with 'Fuck the Pope!' 'No Surrender!': a boy about to die, Screaming 'Give 'em one for the Shankill!'
That's funny, I'm currently embroiled in an argument with Acer over refunding my Windows tax. (They want me to pay for it (considerably more than the value of the refund)).
Moral of the story? You just can't win with these bastards.
Well if you were working on music production it would have to be http://jackaudio.org/ .
Also webcams often contain microphones, I expect your computer is treating the webcam as its primary audio device. Please see the relevant documentation for your audio system on changing this.

Wow, wasn't that enjoyable.
Do you put your dinner into a blender and then compress it into a tiny pellet and see how fast you can swallow it?
Watch speedruns instead of buying games?
Drive slowly?
It seems to me like you're doing it wrong, comprehension is not what I look for in a novel. Have you thought of stopping to smell the flowers and cogitate, savour?

You know what annoys me no end?
Overly general statements which show a lack of understanding.

lol @ ubuntu version troll
In before: "NO NO NO, here's the real versioning..."
Look guys, they finally fixed the "Anonymous Cowardon" issue.
Can we not just be thankful for that?
The name of the country, in English, is Ireland, read the constitution.

It's a hard to work out precisely his point, but let's not be so quick to call troll next time eh?
what do you think ask /. is for?

An astroturfer would say that!

For the record those crimes do have indirect victims.
I lost my ability to metamoderate but parent is hardly a troll.
I did know. But thanks.
It wasn't intended to be taken fully seriously, nor was I telling him he was wrong.
For the record I'd rather die than do business management. We assholes study Physics.
A bit of decorum wouldn't go amiss.
Nor would a look at the numbers involved. He was talking about having the audiobook read at much faster than reading speed.
It was too fast, in my opinion to enjoy and seemed to me to be again the spirit of reading a novel.
Is that ok with you?
I didn't mean to go that far at all. I was only saying that just getting through something isn't half as enjoyable as taking it at a leisurely pace.
And as an aside, I think most people like to listen to live music when in the presence of the original band.
Your primary assumption, that CLI is inferior to GUI is fallacious.
That's what is wrong with your argument.
You are more than welcome.
Maybe it's time to stop using KDE3? aRTS was always terrible.
Well I run Reason fine in Wine, but I only stopped using it in OSX because the window management made me cry.

Well clouds and entropy are old concepts and Linux is a name.
What a crap ponder.
"Zoidberg", he's Jewish, not the name of a town.
Well you obviously haven't seen the scripts for the next series!
I found the best way to get an English speaker to make the sound is to stand on a snail. The "ugh" sound they make is a pretty good approximation.
