I got a big smile on my face when I read this article and shared it with a few of the women I work with before we left the office for the day. I especially enjoyed the ponies! Great job to Skud! |

Poetic, couldn't have happened to a more deserving guy. |

What a well deserved payback. I would LOVE to express my true feelings for him here, but it is not my place to violate the very TOS for which I stand... ;-) |

Pretty much what Scott said. This is awesome and I just can't elaborate here... |

Like crazy, man :). what a stroke of genius! |

Revenge is a dish best served with ponies :-) |

As is true of many criminals, this guy probably does this stuff for the attention (BTK comes to mind as a recent example). I hope nothing else is written on the topic. You won't hurt his feelings, you'll only encourage him, some people just aren't like the rest of us. |

I missed the whole thing, and am now going on a quest to find out just what this program is supposed to do. Edit: Ok, someone wrote ugly code with ugly comments. Then he got banned from someone's private property. Works for me. |
| tuxchick Oct 20, 2009 9:58 AM EDT |
Bob, why do you even bother to comment? What a waste of electrons. Your quest was all of two seconds in duration. |
| Bob_Robertson Oct 20, 2009 10:26 AM EDT |
> Bob, why do you even bother to comment? Same reason you do. > What a waste of electrons. Yep. Well said. Your post added nothing to the discussion what so ever. > Your quest was all of two seconds in duration. Actually, I never did find out what the program did. What I found was a non-controversy, handled perfectly well by private parties on private property. I think it is a wonderful example of how to deal with idiots, without acting like idiots. Such as spending hours and hours bemoaning how awful someone else's comments are, with endless speculation about motives and motivations. Much simpler and less "waste of electrons" to just say "bah!" and get on with life. Live, with ponies, beautifully done. |

Bob, Mikee has even visited here blowing his bilious clouds of ignorance. Your quest as you call it, for the extent performed did not even apparently scratch the surface. Trust me, this isn't just poetic justice, it's really darned funny too. |

Yeah, he had this dubious multi-paraghaphed wall of hateful prose that he cobbled together and then copied and pasted onto almost every discussion thread going on. He's just your typical sort that feels threatened by anybody not belonging to the same demographic as him. And I looked at some of the code patches at http://code.geekfeminism.org/mikeeusa/ good stuff! :) |

Az, thanks for the reminder. Yes, his writings here were quite boorish. I didn't trigger on the name, likely because I don't waste long-term memory space on such drivel. |

> Yes, his writings here were quite boorish. That's an excellent description of them. |
| caitlyn Oct 20, 2009 9:43 PM EDT |
MikeeUSA is also the only person I've seen banned from LXer.com in recent memory. It takes an awful lot to get banned here. |
| montezuma Oct 20, 2009 10:21 PM EDT |
Yeah his posts here were about 10 standard deviations away from the mean. Without any exaggeration at all what I read of his here was by far the worst material I have seen on any online forum anywhere in the past 15 years, Truly disgusting. |
| Sander_Marechal Oct 21, 2009 4:40 AM EDT |
@montezuma: I've seen worse, but not in the FOSS world. |
| jdixon Oct 21, 2009 9:17 AM EDT |
> Without any exaggeration at all what I read of his here was by far the worst material I have seen on any online forum anywhere in the past 15 years, You lead a sheltered life. :) Though I agree with Sander, I've never seen worse on a FOSS related site. |
| montezuma Oct 21, 2009 10:51 AM EDT |
jdixon, You may have missed his defense of the Hans Reiser murder..... Matter of opinion but I haven't seen such a thing before online anyway. In person yes. |
| Sander_Marechal Oct 21, 2009 11:18 AM EDT |
Quoting:You may have missed his defense of the Hans Reiser murder..... I didn't miss that. Years (and years) ago, before I went into FOSS and became a productive geek I spent several years at the ass-end of the internet. The stuff you can find there makes Mike's stuff look tame. But hey, it's the internet! If there's one universal certainty then it's that there is *always* something worse out there :-) |
| montezuma Oct 21, 2009 4:30 PM EDT |
Sander, I'm sure your right. I guess I don't go where you are referring to for very good reason.. Years ago when I was young (and stupid) I hitchhiked around Australia. I heard worse then. |
