Nice answer, Trip. :) Sorry, late reply. -the valrus

I friggin' hate this bumper sticker. What kind of a mental leper would you have to be to want to brag about something like that? Sometime I will come up with an appropriate retort-oriented bumper sticker, but I have been unsuccessful so far. -the valrus

Don't forget R.E.M. and U2. If you hate U2, I don't want to hear about it. :D I was surprised to see Wilco already on here. I had Yankee Hotel Foxtrot recommended to me by two people (one of whom was my mom) in about a week. Thatt's a good album! I heard their label dropped them after they...

Well, you could install Linux on a PS2... -the valrus

I guess there would have to be something very big orbiting the Earth! What is time? Put some thought into your answer or you're out for 10 rounds. No Dilbert-esque "It's a magazine!" responses. :D -the valrus

Well, xoot, so far in this thread you're averaging just over 12.3 words per post, not including quotes and smilies. Now that you've hit 1000 posts and don't have any more congrats threads to look forward to, you can work on making posts that people like Ed, Trip and myself are more interested in...

Right, hand out the bats with nails in them. Okay, you two, I want a good clean fight. By the way, when God's computer crashes it's called a singularity. :D Edit: Whoa, Trip just changed his avatar! I thought someone new had posted in the time it took me to write this post. -the valrus

A gaggle! What's your favorite book? -the valrus

oh dear god no :D

That's one of the lamest things a teacher can do. What the h*ll is the point of giving you an assignment if she won't tell you what you did wrong when you're done? Moronic. You should ask her what you did wrong. Maybe she'll get the hint. -the valrus

Good call, fbp-man. I think there's a Cocoa one as well. Either should be easily locatable with some intelligent searching. -the valrus

The way I've always used it, it's the same as in German. It basically means "over," indicating superiority or "ultimateness," right? -the valrus

Well, I think I'm most interested in pure math, although I haven't really chosen an area of specialization within that yet. Algebraic Structures was fun but I think I want to get a taste of some of the other areas of higher-level math before I decide which to focus on. I have always kind of...

Hello, xoot. This is America. Land of freedom of speech 'n the press 'n assembly (read: protests) 'n duct-taping your nipples. Of course they let him do that. While smoking marijuana is still illegal, trying using legal means to make it so that it isn't is just as legal as marching for gay...

Looks cool but silly. If you want virtual desktops under OS X (not nearly as flashy as this one but probably just about as functional), you should try Space.dock. -the valrus

If you're not as productive in OS X, you might need to stop thinking like it's OS 9. It isn't. It's better. If you try to use OS X like OS 9 it will slow you down. I agree that some of the animations and things in OS X aren't necessary, but are they really that time consuming? It seems like you...

Depends on how you installed them. If you just want to get rid of OroborOSX and XDarwin, just trash them. There's no uninstallers on a Mac! :D If, however, you want to get rid of your entire X Window System installation, that's more complicated, and I'm pretty sure the process for doing so...

You should change "Lynx" to "Lynx or other text-only browser." I have links and used to use that instead of lynx. Also, I think there's another text-only browser called w3c or something like that - not sure if it's been tested on OS X. -the valrus

Sure, why not? He's a crazy guy. He was kind of mellow and nerdy in high school, and while he's still both of those things, he's also become very anti-The Man, and he's in a group at Maryland that's pushing for different (legalization-oriented) drug laws. -the valrus
