within an inch of accuracy

Not good enough. We want it within a millimeter!

It's posts like this that make me keep reading Slashdot. Brilliant.

If you knew anything about Stallman, you would know that he prefers the term 'free' as in freedom (does that ring any bells?).

You seem to be forgetting at the very least the venerable Senator Orrin Hatch, whose only necessary campaign slogan is 'experience'. Indeed I wouldn't trust anyone with any less experience to take so many campaign contributions from lobbyists.

I've had two HTC phones (one being the Nexus One) and have noticed no significant problems. I have noticed that most of the apps that came with the second one are not worth using compared to the stock Google apps (Calendar, Music, etc) but that probably goes for most brands of phones.

I would recommend abcde for ripping/tagging. It's a great, no-hassle CLI tool. I'm sure there is a CLI based album art downloader which you could combine with abcde into a short shell script.

Valid point but I do have to nitpick.

The M60 has been supplanted by the M240B for years now.
By 'M243', you must mean the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon.
The M16A4 is hardly new. We drew them during basic training at Fort Benning over twelve years ago.
The M16 has been supplanted by the M4 for a number of years now in all but the most neglected stateside arms rooms (in the Army anyway).

Awesome sketch. Thanks for the reminder!

So, I can use this to throw virtual chairs?

That's because you can actually get some work done on a good Linux distro, instead of spending all your time rebooting and getting popups out of your face.

You'd be naive to believe they don't have a few robotic Gates' stashed away somewhere "just in case".

Don't worry. The government is too big to fail.

We're not deploying a hotfix on a production planet on my shift, dammit! You can do whatever you want after I go home though.

Five years?! Needs more torpedoes.

Slobovia is somewhere near BFE if I recall my geography correctly.
