  1. Re:Frank Miller... on Next Batman to be Directed By Pi's Darren Aronofsky · · Score: 1

    This WAS my teenage years.

  2. dos2unix!? on Matrox Releases XFree86 4.0.1 Driver · · Score: 1

    Who uses that?
    What's wrong with

    perl -pi -e 's/\r//'

    ?

  3. Now that the US has the lid on the coffin on EU To Take Legal Action Against Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Europe realized that it's not enough to just put the lid on the coffin, they also need to nail on the back to the coffin.

  4. It would be different. on Oracle Says It Investigated Microsoft Allies · · Score: 1

    Yes, because it would be different if it was Microsoft who hired IGI against another company.

  5. what about PAM on On Choosing Encryption ... · · Score: 1

    I think that the real question should be: why doesn't more software use PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) which would allow that software to use any algorithm the user wanted

  6. Re:All it needs... on Myst - In Realtime? · · Score: 2

    Ok, do we have a concensous here? Can we all agree that all games, including chess, zork, head games, foreplay, thermonuclear war, and bridge, all would be inproved by the introduction of either a rocket launcher or a chainsaw?

  7. Re:Incorrect interpretation on Borland C++ Can No Longer Be Used To Make Free Software? · · Score: 1
    It is verry clear:
    You may produce and distribute, in executable form only, programs which you created ...

    what does "You may have an apple." mean?

  8. violence has dropped ? on Geek Profiling: The Next W.A.V.E. · · Score: 1

    Despite the fact that horrific incidents like Columbine are extremely rare, and that the FBI and Justice Department have both reported that youth violence has dropped to its lowest levels in more than half a century

    While this may be true. This mostly refects a decline of violence among people of color. When these <b>white</b> kids die then people really freak out.

  9. Disapearing/Reapearing article? on Richard Stallman Audio Interview at Wired · · Score: 1

    Is it just me or did this Slashdot article show up this morning then vanish and then show up again this afternoon?
    Anyone else notice this?

  10. BYTE is still around?!? on Perl vs. Python: A Culture Comparison · · Score: 1

    Wow, I had no idea.

  11. Re:License terms? on Eclipse/BSD Released by Bell Labs · · Score: 1

    It seams that this license does not allow you to redistribute "Derivative Works". Does that jive with the BSDL?
    Does Lucent use/modify/redistribute BSD under the BSDL, or do they have other rights whith this code via prior arrangements?

  12. Re:One Company on Warner Music and EMI Set to Merge · · Score: 1

    Thank you for this.

  13. Re:well then on Broadcasting Spam into Space · · Score: 1

    Whatever you do, just stop humping the "laser"!!

  14. Why aren't they burnt-out yet? on Old Folks Can Code, Too · · Score: 1

    The sentiment around here is that if they aren't burnt-out by age 35-40 then they probably aren't any good.
