checking... in this case, the original question was, as was the OPs
followup pointing to the #define in the kernel.

I'm not quite sure how a post from googlegroups can be anything but a
googlegroups post, but if in your twisted little world that's how
things are, I hope you're happy there.

A number of old school Usenet users ignore posts from groups.google.com.

I see. I think it's a silly thing to do, but I guess it's no different
than the way I refused for years to give in and get a cell phone. Sooner
or later they'll get over it...just like I did. :)

Sheesh, don't get your panties in a bunch.

While users on GoogleGroups may post to a usenet newsgroup, they also may
post to groups that are not on usenet... i.e. a GoogleGroup. I'm only
saying that comp.lang.c is not a GoogleGroup. It's a usenet group.

I presume that by "googlegroups posts" he means articles posted to
Usenet via the Google groups interface.

Hypocrite.

Care to cite where I said otherwise?

For a while I used to have aioe.org /en bloc/ in my killfile too due
to the low SNR therefrom, you have reminded me of those days.

Yeah, I get it now. I took it the wrong way at first.

Well, maybe. If people with cell phones called you, did it result in
conversations with them being broken up into 1-minute sub-conversations
scattered around apparently randomly?

.... Come to think of it, maybe that is a sort of good analogy.

Whatever.

Believe it or not, I really was sorry you took offense (at first), but if
you want to get all worked up over one little comment, go right ahead.

As for me, I consider the conversation (what little there was of it) to
be over.

Depends on how good you are at ignoring or filtering out the
heavy flow of spam from groups.google.com.
