Re: "It was not immediately clear, however...
"The sooner the oil runs out the better - so the USA looses interest in supporting this horrible terrorist state."
Nope. The sooner leaders of people the world over are dragged into the street and laughed at the better. Only then will throwaway "nuke 'em" remarks cease to enter the mind of the led.
Only half?
ALL operating have unpatched holes. Always.

Correction: no laugh track. I feel dirty for checking...

RE: the King Features Beatles cartoons
There's loads of examples on YouTube although you'd be better off forgetting that anybody told you about it. Terrible accents, dire laughter track and godawful everything else.
"Screwing Over Murdoch?"
If he gets a life sentence, that'll be screwing the bloke over.
Ten years would be justice but it's not going to happen.
Screwed over? Hardly.
Early adopters...
...you can always see 'em coming.
It came to this...
...and it won't change anything.
And the biggest laugh is that they rely on expensive lawyers to save themselves money. lolwut?
Goodnight muzac industry. Goodnight.

Bad...
...Idea
I wouldn't put it past 'em to sell it as a good 'un though. A lot of their bad ideas are interesting to watch...
CD32
Sounds like a CD32 moment.
(excuse the limited appeal of that statement)
In the meantime, here's some vaporware from our sponsors.
That awkward moment when you realised you just complained about distractions from your user experience on a site for the tech-literate?
Makes perfect sense though...
...often the best way to familiarise yourself with such tools is to run them on one's own machine first.
We'll just have to wait and see what product Apple decide to associate his name with...
lol and/or wut?

That is all.
No Tor Heroes (anymore)
Tor exit nodes tend to be rejected by Anon IRC servers. Keeps the CP out y'see. A VPN would be great, but the majority of Anons have to rely on NickServ and HostServ and a gamble as to the trustworthiness of the ops.
Re: F**king anarchists, my arse!
It's almost as if you're confusing mob rule with anarchism...
That's what happens when you rely on the media for implied definitions rather than checking the political philosophy section of your local library.
I see what you did there
Oh yes I do
:-)

Not often..
..you get stuff wrong Lester.
Don't feel too bad about this one.
Much Respect!
In short..
..Just because the trees are growing upside down near Chernobyl, it doesn't mean the sky is falling down.
Stop worrying. Nukukar is great.
BOOM!
Is that what you want?

"The open-source outfit is taking a bottoms-up approach "
I'll drink to that!
Posted in Hubble squints at most distant galaxy
@Chris Miller
...or to put it another way: that part of the universe 13.2 billion light years away is now 13.2 billion years older, and somewhere in that galaxy might be a small planet with an orbiting telescope squinting an eye in this direction.
So...
>"Whatever else you think of Gruber, he is NOT responsible for policy at Apple,"
He is however "on message". Apple need to just GTFO and be done with it. Their fanbois are welcome to THAT garden.
"Sheesh, just because you hang onto the Ashes"
Ah. Now we're getting there...

"It's not my fault that their programming allowed a player to win at will,"
Yup.
The casinos need to be tapping on the shoulder of the manufacturer here.

Answer?
Ask Mr Jobs. He thought he had the answer to this one...
Posted in XP? Thanks for the memories
Can't wait!
All those improvements. Sounds good. Where do I update this pile of cra... Oh!
Sorry.
Bless XP
It was Vista that made me turn to Linux. The only reason this is posted via Vista is 'cos I booted me least favourite OS for a chuckle (and poker).
/me is waiting ages for a decent game of Hi/Lo Omaha atm.
Dear Google
I'm done with ya.
Default search engine changed - check!
Bookmark removed - check!
Goodbye and have fun.
That's
...Fabulous!
Posted in Google tests 'streaming' search engine
True to form...
Nice one Google. I had a feeling there would be further "improvements" after the fine job you made of your image search.
Posted in ISS cooling pump refuses to come quietly
Why?
The vital organs containing ammonia and heat exchangers and pipework and moving parts probably work best outside?
Stand and deliver!
"I just have to say, it doesn't feel right." is the gentlemanly way of saying "they're obviously robbing bastards, but can I face the court costs?".
Posted in Dell blames staff for malware infection
How?
"How can a virus infect a motherboard?"
Firmware.
Nah
You're supposed to buy the iPhone5 in twelve months time. Your bumper will outlive this year's fashion statement.
Dell sell Linux PCs?!!
Yes. Yes they do. Stop it!!!
Upvoted...
Upvoted because the Man Utd. analogy is a pretty damned good one :-)
(Man U. fans who live outside a 40 mile radius of Old Trafford need not apply...)
Nice article
Let the other players argue over their share, Android users are becoming a silent uptake/majority because *ahem* it just works :-)
Posted in Mucky private chat could be illegal soon
Really??!!
Your donkey must've really pissed your neighbour off, but I suppose all is not lost if he's still willing to settle down and start a family with you.
;o)

Wha...?
"The US Computer Emergency Readiness Team" BooYaaahhh!
They really love this shit those yanks, don't they?
It's not what they say...
...it's what they DON'T say.
Yet more proof that Apple and Microsoft are scared of something...
Posted in Mandybill: All the Commons drama
To those downvoters...
Those who have just downvoted Andrew's post are really missing the point here. The "three strikes" thing IS GONE! The bill does away with any need for three strikes and is far wider reaching.
No, not that rare at all!
But that's an OS argument. I won't derail this thread any further.
Y'know MS is still obfuscating when...
...all they had to do was make the first boot of IE give the same infirmation and options as the ballot screen.
Click click click. Job's a 'tater.
yup
It's not methedrone, whatever the hell that is. Unless the author knows better and would like to point us in the right direction...
Whuuuttt?
Google's geolocation abilities, now built into their apps to show just how cool they are, are being exploited nefariously?
Well I never!
and...
...and for every clued up Apple Fanboi* there's hundreds** of "it just works" dumbf***s who'd fall for this if it hit them***.
*Most of them.
**Probably thousands, to be honest.
***Which is unlikely, unfortunately >:-}
@ Mark Legosz
Have a good think about what you just suggested...
Windows user by any chance?
