parody done well is a thing of joy. parody done with the brain power of a squirrel fetus is laughably stupid.

AOL's "youth filters" protect kids from Democrats. Please someone kill Steve Case. These fucks are just getting cocky.

There is no RealPlayer, only XUL!

Great reference in the latest Geeks in Space, telling how Napster takes up as much bandwidth as http in some universities, so Napster, in a few months, has literally wasted as much bandwidth as the Web. Congratulations, guys.

I believe Napster was four times all other traffic at our university. That's insane.

ok, so maybe you're not as 31337 as myself and Creon are, but you would like to be. well, get your learn on with The Jargon File. you wont actually become 1337, or acquire any 5KI11Z, but you might start getting some of the references.

this came up in episode2. i like macs. i think they are powerful, elegant machines. however it would appear that microsoft thinks of them as kids' stuff.

I've been hitting Win2k hard lately since installing it on my computer. Half of what's new was done in Unix years ago - multi-user support, symbolic links, SMP, not having to restart for every system, program and service change, you know, the little stuff. I admit it's a better Windows, but damn, guys ... that's not saying much right now.

fuckin' market share.

Netscape 6 PR 1 is out, come and get 'em. I have to admit that I'm sad to see the labors of Mozilla get gobbled into this product, what with Instant Messenger and all that AOL shit slapped onto it, but ... this post was made using this preview.

actually a post from Rhino:


in case you hadnt heard, everyone's favorite innovator is about to get the shaft. it's easy to be happy about them getting the buttlove they so rightfully deserve, but this brings up the question: without Great Satan around, where are we going to go to have all our fun?
