Things have been pretty slow behind the scenes at ANN. I still worked most of January 2001 and the past two weeks of February, so my free time was limited. My PC seems to be working okay now, but my dialup has been very unreliable and painfully slow (how many errors are normal in W2k's dialup status window? So far I have 143 for less than 200k transferred...). The DSL line is supposedly being installed "in a few weeks". Sounds oddly familiar. I finally found an Amiga sponsor again, so that my phone costs are almost covered. Thanks also to the individuals who offered donations - sorry I didn't get back to you - but I'm always reluctant to accept individual donations for a number of reasons I won't go into since space is limited. :) To wrap up this MOTD, I'm trying once more to find one or more reliable contributors to do a bit of moderation and article posting. Please apply via email.

MOTD 12/Feb/2001 : Comment 24 of 64 | ANN.lu |

Sure, believe David Cutler. He wrote a crapkernel, that makes him a hero.

Hey, we've got an exemployee from a crapcompany, lets hire him!
> Yes, I believe the code I see and write, while you believe what you
You write real crap code if you can't see that Windows is crap.
> WANT to believe. Here's the difference between you and me.
Naw, I believe what I see, while you believe in marketing BS from MS. There's the difference.
> I never said that Windows was perfect, I simply said that this
> problem was not due to the OS, either you don't know to read or
> you are unable to understand simple english.
Noo, it isn't Windows' fault, and even if it is, it's a feature.
And if you can't see that Windows is crap, then your perception of reality is twisted.
> Most people use Windows so they probably feel it's not that bad.
And most of them never made a choice. Most of those who do make a choice, choose something else.
> The difference being that I don't say that I know your stuff
> better than you, because I don't, I'm not a magician, since
Here's the sad part: I do know your stuff better than you. You've just proved that.
> you are able to do this kind of miracles, I thought you
> would be a celebrity.
No, no miracles, just a simple fact.
>>> the Nobel prizes ceremony, they forgot you ? How stupid they are...
>> No, I can still make it. Just wait. I'll get the Nobel prize for bashing lamers.
> This simple phrase shows how smart you are.
Silly questions get silly answers... |
