There are three key advantages to the polearm:

1. If it is equipped with a hook, you can pull an armored combatant off their horse.

2. Sticks are cheap

3. Sticks are long.

I've never given this question the slightest thought, but now presented with it, I am going to have to go with spetum. I have no idea what it is, but the name sounds funny.

It's an earthquake...

Quick! Jettison the house!

TheRaven64 is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

Ahhh.... That's the stuff.

Thank you. My faith in humanity is restored.

Since forever. And one more thing. While we're on the subject of trolls, why do modern trolls utterly suck? In the 90's, trolling was high art. Slashdot trolls in particular were geniuses in the craft, weaving perfectly proportioned delicately scented masterpieces of intellectual turds and dropping them in perfectly chosen locations. Now, trolling has degenerated to the point that the word itself is misused to mean anyone who post something anyone doesn't like. Any random idiot can now be considered a troll. It's a fucking travesty. Trolling is NOT just annoying. It's careful, deliberate artwork. What happened to it?

That's my network. I named it that as a joke.

• god
• church
• prayer
• devotional
• scouting
• fundraiser
• teaparty
• something that will catch sports betting pools

That seems kind of dangerous.

The basis for your comment is esteem for the skills required to develop software. I wonder, however, if you underestimate the skills required to write and publish effective criticism. The fundamental nature of open source software is that if you care enough about it to host a blog criticizing it, you will have already deployed a level of skill and effort that could improve the software itself.

If you are in a position to criticize Linux, you are in a position to contribute to it. Where do you think all the Linux developers come from?

Sorry, it's a dupe...

Ironic?
