I think he’s absolutely right. The Gates’ should send 1/3 of humanity to space.

We’ll tell them the mutant space goat is coming.

But this time, we keep the telephone santizers.

Get real, loosers, it’s the Gates foundation! I thought it was a foundation from this fuckknuckle. They'd make a spaceship that flew around beating up black people and being hysterical about drugs.

PeeJ,

Dude, I work for Microsoft and I can’t figure that one out. You’d think that people from Seattle would understand the importance of walls to keeping the roof over your head and the rain out.

Pournelle and Limbaugh are collaborating on a book, The Cyst on God’s Ass.

Sorry about the double post.

Man, just when the heat was finally dying down, the fat fuck goes and draws all this attention to hisself.

I told him: That’s it, man. Go get your shit somewhere else.

Late to the party so apologies if this has been covered already.

Mickeysoft’s new ad campaign – does it make sense to anyone? What I’m talking about is their tag line, “Windows – for a world without walls.” Or something like that. Well what the fuck is a window for if you don’t have a wall? How can you even have a window without a wall?

Also, I believe mentioniing OpenBSD has been deprecated. in favor of NetBSD.

Clearly, the solution is to have a Linux-based Starship.

Hmmm, this thing says we’re going to fall into the sun in 30 seconds. Better consult the hyperdrive users group . . .

Are these people a bunch of fourteen-year-olds building an MPC/Fundimensions model kit of Moonbase Alpha and huffing up big snorking lungfuls of fumes from a bottle of Testors liquid model cement!? No, I mean are they?

That is the distilled essence of Pournelle, yes. And if you could, in fact, distill the essence of Jerry Pournelle and shoot it into space–straight at the sun, say–the world would indeed be a better place. I’m pretty sure that the shambling shade of Gene Roddenberry wouldn’t mind if they bumped his and his wife’s ashes to the next rocket to make room.

Isn’t there some kind of corollary to Godwin’s Law about mentions of OpenBSD? Yeah, but that's on a different website.

I once killed a PC in Reno just to watch it die.

It was kind of cool actually, it turned all blue and stuff…

I used to read Pournelle’s column on computers in Infoworld. Then I sat down the table from him at an awards banquette. He got drunk and started doing a Donald Duck imitation. I have been unable to take him seriously since.

After gramps died I at last understood the aphorism “Dead men tell no tales.” And I smiled.

Each night, Father fills me with dread
When he sits at the foot of my bed
I don’t mind that he speaks
In gibbers and squeaks
But for seventeen years, he’s been dead.

God, it sickens me having to pretend to give a shit about all the covetous, hook-nosed subhumans in Israel just to further my masters’ political agenda. Don’t ever say we trolls don’t have to make sacrifices.

Most trolls believe that they are, in fact, funny. Anyone who does not agree with them is obviously either: overly sensitive, has no life, no sense of humor, or is a combination of two or all of these. In many instances, one can see where troll has in fact messed up but is too wrapped in his own little laugh to notice how much of a douche they have really been. These trolls are the most easy to identify, as they often stop leaving comments when it is obvious even to a monkey with a brain tumor that they have fucked it up, or when you see a comment that begins with telling the owner of the site/picture/story/etc that they suck for no good reason. To be absolutely sure, look for the word “lulz” anywhere in their comments, or YHBT at the end of the comments.
