  1. Large packet size on Pigeons Faster than Internet · · Score: 1

    Definitely.

  2. Re:Sounds like trouble... on Blinkenlights @ Chaos Communication Camp 2003 · · Score: 1

    To me, that seems as if you both lost, even though you did not "miss" "the ball".

  3. Others... on Machine Learning and MP3s · · Score: 5, Informative

    For other programs that do this already, look for RoboDJ or AudioScrobbler. Lots of others exist.

    Yet none get the job done right.

  4. Re:Resource usage on Windows: Opera rules! on Opera 6.0 for Linux Released · · Score: 0

    Industry-Best standards compliance? Puhleeze!

    Opera's DOM support is far from "industry-best". Any other of the major browsers does a far better job of supporting CSS and ECMAScript, the most notable being Mozilla.

  5. Correction on German Elections Go Open Source · · Score: 0

    It is "Statistisches Bundesamt", not "Statisches".

  6. Re: DOOM multihead on Multi-Head Gaming · · Score: 1

    I think I saw that at doomworld. check it out

  7. Just a small correction ... on AOL Liable For User Content In Germany? · · Score: 1

    Sexual intercourse with animals actually is allowed in germany, and all propaganda is illegal, no matter whether nazi or communist.

  8. Today's computers and encoders DO suffice on Best Live Streaming MP3 Solution? · · Score: 1

    You would not need a hell of a computer - if you choose a bitrate suitable for streaming, e.g. = 64 kps, even something like a P133 may do it. My P200MMX does a 256kbit encoding in realtime with gogo, any modern computer should boost that. I even know of my friend's K6-2 300 that does about 0.5 (ratio of file length versus encoding time).

    So, if you buy a computer today, it should fit your needs well.

  9. Re:Question....no..wait...seriously... on Darwin Source Completely Available · · Score: 1

    NP:-Janie's-got-a-gun, means just that: 'NP: Janie's got a gun'.

    NP is short for Now Playing.

    It doesn't really fit, however :)

  10. I have to agree with moonboy, this really sucks... on LucasArts Announces First Massive Multiplayer Game · · Score: 1

    This was submitted by me more than four days ago.
    And of course it was declined.

    It really _sucks_.

  11. How would it help them? on Microsoft Trying To Look Open Source With CE · · Score: 1

    So they will not make it Open Source, but instead free to license. Well, availability at no cost ist fortunately not the deal with Linux, and neither behind the 'free' software movement. If you have the choice between, say, Lineo and Windows CE, both available at no cost, but you can expect a much more lively community behind Lineo, an open development model, and a high compatibility (talking of APIs), how would you decide?

    This step will only bring WinCE to its end faster than ever. The hype is on Linux anyway, and giving WinCE away can not stop it. Go Open, or leave it. It doesn't even have to be GPL. But this way, it sucks. They just try to get sales by using a buzzword.

  12. Re: Right cause, wrong approach? on The Breaking of Cyber Patrol 4 · · Score: 1

    Remember this is not about hacking the encryption to show that the encryption is weak.
    This is to check the blocked URLs and give an error rating, to show that censorware, in general, is a huge failure.
    Censorware blocks too many sites in error, and lets too many sites pass through on the other hand. It simply is not useful at the current state of the art. Neither URL blacklists nor word blacklists could imagine to keep up with the web's growth.

  13. So - what? on British DNA Database Mismatch · · Score: 1

    This had to happen one time. Statistics are, well, just statistics. They can't tell you anything about how often or when something will happen in a specified time. Statistics only tell you how mouch it should happen, according to previously gathered data. The problem arising with this is another: It's the problem of relying on forensic analysis, even when the suspect has got a water-proof alibi and eye-witnesses who can prove the opposite. There were already enough cases of innocents who were found to be guilty. This will just add to this, as DNA tests are believed to be 100% exact. Well, you now know they aren't. Act accordingly.

  14. They should have realized that before... on Senior Navy Official Slams Microsoft · · Score: 0

    Before they sent out a ship carrying a Division-By-Zero WinNT steering server, and before buying the Microsoft Groupware products. As it's now, not that I like Microsoft, but this seems just as if the Navy was too stupid to test their software before buying.

  15. Jagged Alliance rules, any more games to come? on Interview with Tribsoft · · Score: 1

    Jagged Alliance was and is cool, will they port any more games? I hope so! ;) moeffju (First Post with my threshold? ;)

  16. Don't forget the NSA and Echelon on Russian Cops to Monitor All Internet Traffic · · Score: 1

    The NSA has been doing this for years, and is still doing it, Echelon also goes on. So what do you complain about? Besides, what would you get from the Russian traffic except MP3s and pr0n? :)

  17. Nice :) on WWW Surpasses One Billion Documents · · Score: 1

    Not first post, but first with my threshold ;) Seriously, it's nice to see Apache sticking out again. Should do fairly well for marketing Linux.

  18. Cye 'sucks', according to c't Magazine on Cool Personal Robots · · Score: 1

    Cye has been reviewed by the german c't Magazine (http://www.heise.de/ct/), and well, it doesn't look like anything decent. It needs to dock very often, and the time needed to load its batteries is higher than the time it can move around. Besides, the software is only for windows and the mapping is not the best, and the robot has problems with any surface except carpets... Not quite what you want, I guess.
