  1. 1st post on The Promo Bay Blocked By UK ISPs · · Score: -1, Redundant

    1st post

  2. That will be solved once peer-matching improves on Will Internet TV Crash the Internet? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    BitTorrent and eMule could prioritize downloading from people on their ISP's subnet or from people with a low ping/traceroute or the same city.

    Live TV could solve its problem with multicasting.

    Google/YouTube, I don't know how they can solve problems their model creates.

  3. wtf? on Turkey Censors YouTube · · Score: 1

    Youtube has deleted that video.

    So Google can stand up to Bush (when he asks for its search records), but not to Turkey?

  4. Sweden on Schools Banning Homework? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I read somewhere that schools in Sweden (at least in the '80s) didn't give homework. How true is that?

  5. The fonts! on ReactOS Reviewed in Depth · · Score: 2, Funny

    Why didn't they use Microsoft's fonts?

  6. Great strategy on Lenovo To Shun Linux · · Score: 1

    They're excluding themselves from the US government buying their puters because they're chinese.
    And now they're excluding themselves from the Chinese government buying them because they don't ship with Linux.

    Way to go.

  7. Re:Big Brother will know your schedule on Google Calendar · · Score: 1

    It's Google that might be plotting it's coup d'etat.

  8. Re:It features integration with Gmail. on Google Calendar · · Score: 1

    How about having an event reminder through IM? Much better than e-mail in some cases...

  9. So why DO they riot, anyway? on French Riots Lead to Crackdown on Blogs · · Score: -1, Troll

    ? Why?

  10. Can someone please upload a blank virtual machine? on VMWare Inc. Releases Free Virtual Machine Runtime · · Score: 1

    Can someone please upload a blank virtual machine for us to try out and install our own OSes on it?

    Thanks

  11. So, can someone upload a blank virtual machine? on VMWare Inc. Releases Free Virtual Machine Runtime · · Score: 1

    Can someone upload a blank virtual machine, so we can get it and install our own OSes on it and run them under VMware?

  12. FP on Slashback: Start, Trash, Explain · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    FP!

  13. Is there a way Quick Launch Firefox? on Firefox Continues to Bite into IE Usage · · Score: 1

    Is there a way to make Firefox launch quickly, like there is with Mozilla?

    If so, I'd switch to Firefox immediately.

  14. My reasons for keeping Mozilla on Mozilla 1.7.5 Released · · Score: 1

    - memory resident icon for faster launching
    - can search google from the main address box

  15. Cool application on Evolving Swarms with Swarmstreaming · · Score: 1

    People in countries with good television, such as Norway, could use it to stream live television to the rest of the world.

  16. Wasn't there a problem with SP2 and P2P programs? on The Verdict on WinXP SP2? · · Score: 1

    I think SP2 was supposed to disallow over 10 attempts for connections at the same time, and this was supposed to cause problems on P2P programs.

    I read it on slashdot at some point. I don't see anyone writing about it this time. Has anyone had any experience with P2P programs on SP2? Problems??

  17. And Exim, also on Gmail Begins Signing Email with DomainKeys · · Score: 1

    That's the mail server I'm running at home on my Debian server.

    Yahoo's page says that this authentication system is currently being implemented only on the Sendmail server.

  18. Mozilla on Gmail Begins Signing Email with DomainKeys · · Score: 1

    I wonder when Mozilla will implement them.

    They haven't included a version of SpamAssassin either which would be good for Windows users.

  19. Over here floppy disks are sold with card readers on The Death of the Floppy Disk · · Score: 1

    As can be seen here.

    Compact Flash (type I & II), Memory stick & Memory Stick Pro, Secure Digital, Multi Media Cards, Microdrive

  20. It does this already on Security-Updated Versions Of Mozilla Released · · Score: 1

    Yes

  21. Question about the economics of product placement on Will TiVo Destroy Ad-Supported TV? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Suppose product placement completely replaces commercial breaks.

    Then TV stations would get their revenue from film producers (who would in turn get it from product manufacturers). Which means stations would actually get paid to show a film, rather than have to pay to show it.

    Means film producers would be willing to pay you to see it, hence not run after you if you make an illegal copy.

    So movie piracy might not be a crime anymore, in the future, as it benefits movie producers who will earn more income from product placement because of the popularity of the movie.

    What do you think?

  22. The method works, but... on Computers, Unemployment and Wealth Creation · · Score: 1

    recessions tend to get worse and worse.

  23. The problem is not with "lack of wealth" on Computers, Unemployment and Wealth Creation · · Score: 2, Informative

    ...as it is in its distribution.

    Techies ought to focus on how to take money from the wealthy and decrease the world's dependency on corporations, or even private companies (that later become corporations), by building cooperatives and collectives.

  24. Yes, but OTOH science gets more cash from the 5gon on Security Versus Science · · Score: 0

    notext

  25. Let each domain have its own CA on AMTP as an Alternative to SMTP · · Score: 1

    & then have each domain's key be downloaded from somewhere like domainkey..com

    Then you won't have to pay anything for the signature.
