    Another interesting project that Microsoft will probably buy out and kill in the egg.

    OpenBSD just got Soft RAID support? What took you so long Theo? :P

  3. Re:Finally! I can join the Orbit-High club on Tourists To ISS Two At a Time Starting In 2012 · · Score: 1

    It's funny you mention it, because some 'rich Guy' is visiting ISS as we chat.

  6. XCopy? on Guaranteed Transmission Protocols For Windows? · · Score: 1

    Xcopy /v over a network share? using the at command?

  7. Define 'content' on Ad Networks the Laggards In Jackson Traffic Spike · · Score: 1

    Quote: How best to balance the content vs. performance tradeoffs? Please define "content". I don't think ads is "content".

  8. Re:CL on Where Does a Geek Find a Social Life? · · Score: 1

    Role playing and smasing success in the same sentence?

  9. This story=Interesting gamble. on A Push To End the Online Gambling Ban · · Score: 1

    All in.

  10. One good point about the Economical Crisis. on City of Vancouver Adopts Open Standards · · Score: 4, Interesting

    It's good that in tough times, our elected people stop and think outside the box a bit.

  11. Re:A-levels? on 8-Year-Old Boy Sets A-Level Maths Record · · Score: 1

    Individuals who pass the A-levels are rewarded with the use of a secret website that describes the world to them: Wikipedia

  13. Or Faronics Deep Freeze on Windows Security and On-line Training Courses? · · Score: 1

    (...) Windows SteadyState (...) It's available for XP and Vista (32 bit) free from Microsoft(...)

    There's also a product that I love: Faronics Deep Freeze.

    It takes an image of a system partition upon install and freeze it. Ie. Reload this partition image after every reboot. So you have a fresh computer every day.

    Some tweaking necessary - partitionning your disk into a frozen for system, and a non-frozen partition for documents.

    It's worth a try, me thinks.

    1. Anyone can register their number on the Do Not Call List with no verifications wether you're the real owner of that particular number.
    2. The list is being leaked to scammers out there.

    Why not register the CRTC to the list? So when THEY receive a call for a free vacation they could issue scammers a fine riiiiiite away?

  17. Re:What is to Respect? on Trying To Find White House Missing E-mails · · Score: 1

    (...) irrespective of Bush's theft of two elections.

    From my point of view, there could have been a theft of ONE election, not TWO. In any case, he still got a few people to vote for him, hasn't he? (2000, 2004)

    Who's to blame, here?

  18. Re:Contempt of Court on Trying To Find White House Missing E-mails · · Score: 1

    George Bush needs to be held to account for this.

    In my humble opinion, Mr. Bush needs to be held to account for much more than this. Only future will tell.

  21. Mail to 'everyone', [click] on State Dept E-mail Crash After "Reply-All" Storm · · Score: 5, Funny

    I remember my first year of college when I wanted to send Xmas greetings to 'everyone'. I remember, the IT director of the college running from computer lab to computer lab looking for student number xxyz.

    Fun times.

  22. Re:Prosecute the parents on 6-Year-Old Says Grand Theft Auto Taught Him To Drive · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Let's mod the parent "Redundant".

    What I find more and more redundant or offtopic these days on /. is comments about mod points

    Please let the moders do their job. They probably can think for themselves.

  23. Re:Even better reason on 6-Year-Old Says Grand Theft Auto Taught Him To Drive · · Score: 2, Funny

    The parents had car keys where the six year old could get them?

    We're talking Grand Theft Auto here. Have you ever seen 'em use car keys? The kid probably bashed both his parents out of the car to steal it.

  24. Very Subjective on If Programming Languages Were Religions · · Score: 0

    Questionnable sense of humour.

    Very caricaturist interpretation of religions. Or maybe that's what should have been funny?
