		wyday on Sept 11, 2007 \| parent \| context \| on: Using Vista even the mouse is dangerous (pic) First of all, this picture is doctored; there should be a company name under "Mouse", or else it would show an "Unidentified Publisher" warning instead. Also notice how 'Mouse' text isn't rendered with cleartype, while all other text is. Plus, it's from 'Uncyclopedia'. Secondly, is Windows bashing what "Hacker News" is going to become? Might as well rename this site "Digg" and start upvoting "Top ten tips for using Ubuntu"-type stories.

		neilc on Sept 11, 2007 \| parent \| context \| on: "10 Lessons of an MIT Education" by Gian-Carlo Rot... If you'd think of the work you need to do to get an MIT degree as "forced work" that you need to put in just to "make the grade", then yes, I'd agree you'd be better off dropping out, or going to somewhere where the standards are more lax.
