    I like it when this sort of thing happens.

  7. Re:Good on DHS To Kill Domestic Satellite Spying Program · · Score: 1

    Revolution will only change it for a short time. There is a cycle of democracy turning into fascism, with the fascism ended by revolution, and the new democracy started by that revolution, only to end in fascism again.

    Britain is just trying to make V For Vendetta come true. Soon they're going to have a mysterious virus released upon them and a dictator is going to take over (repetitively elected). Soon they will also have this faceless fellow martyr himself as an attempt to incite revolution.

    I didn't think anyone actually used MacOS X server edition.

    Yeah, sorry. jack2000 already made a deal with Slashdot as to get the third post (not including children of the first or second post) on this summary.

  13. Re:Misleading, again on Opera Unite Web Server Benchmarked · · Score: 1

    Three levels of privacy, default being number two.

    1. Public, anyone can access.
    2. Passworded, give them the link, they can access, they give that link to someone else, so can they.
    3. Private. Only the Opera Account holder can access.

    Also, it is only accessible while someone has Opera open. One can start and stop each unite service individually also.

    Sounds like it has some decent basic security to me :)

  15. Re:Spot o' tea, guvnah? on UK Tax Breaks For "Culturally British" Games · · Score: 1

    So in the game one might come across a guard while on their quest for the Holy Grail. One might be able to:

    a) Shout incessantly, arguing about whether coconuts migrate.
    b) Discuss the physical limitations as to why a Swallow wouldn't be able to carry a coconut.
    c) Discuss whether it is an African or European Swallow carrying the coconut.
    d) Theorise whether it could be two Swallows carrying the coconut?
    e) All of the above?

    Hmm...I definitely shouldn't be making games, quizes, maybe, but games? Nope.

    Hopefully British style humour would come under 'culturally British'

  17. Re:A little anti clamantic... on Firefox 3.5 Hits Release Candidate Milestone · · Score: 1

    However, the parent is saying that the version that has scored 100/100 in the Acid3 test is the version that has no beta tag. There still may be a beta-tagged Chrome version, but it is not the only Chrome version to have a 100/100 score in the Acid3 test.

  18. Re:Net Neutrality implications? on Virgin-Universal Deal Offers Unlimited Music, Goes After File Sharers · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I want to know if they will cut someone off for downloading Warner Bros. or Sony BMG music, considering that this deal is for Universal Music Group, would they protect the rights of the other labels even though they are not directly involved in the deal?

  19. Re:Theora FAIL on YouTube, HTML5, and Comparing H.264 With Theora · · Score: 1

    I didn't think anyone actually cared for YouTube comments. Aren't they all just retarded pieaces of text that make very little sense?

    I suppose a great fix for that would be to fix ("position: fixed;") the video in the left (or right) side of the page, in the middle and have the comments on the right (or left). This would allow one to scroll the rest of the page while keeping the video in one place.

  20. Re:Theora FAIL on YouTube, HTML5, and Comparing H.264 With Theora · · Score: 1

    Integration of video within a page design is one important style point in web design. Having a seperate window does not allow such integration.

    As with the sibling comments above, I understand the potential problems that hooking might create but surely it can't be worse than Firefox supporting only OGG, Chrome supporting whatever, IE supporting jack shit....etc?

  23. Re:i use folding@home on The Science of Folding@home · · Score: 1

    Why not put all the money used powering computers involved in FAH into innovative research grants instead? Granted this is logistically much harder than convincing people to install a program on their computer, but it would be much more effective in furthuring cancer research.

    Well, when you have thousands of volunteers running it on their desktop PCs and servers either at home or at work, it becomes pretty difficult to pool the money saved from not having Folding@Home into research grants.

  25. Re:Microsoft is doing what it's best at - Marketin on Does Bing Have Google Running Scared? · · Score: 1

    It's only bad marketing if Microsoft releases their own Video hosting service. It would probably have a terrible name like Ving or Wim!

    Imagine what windows would have been named if it was named by the guys that thought up the names of Xbox, Zune, and Bing.
