  1. Re:instant disqualification on Justified: Visual Basic Over Python For an Intro To Programming · · Score: 1

    or even VBScript <> Visual Basic

  2. Re:Typing, lots of typing on How Did You Learn How To Program? · · Score: 1

    Did you ever find one that worked?

    It was the same for me with the added thrill that our house's leccy came via a coin fed meter where a day's graft could disappear for want of 50p!

  3. Re:T430 on Lenovo Could Take Over RIM · · Score: 2

    If someone could publish a list of stuff which could be uninstalled, it would be great.

    I'm guessing:

    - Evernote
    - Intel AppUp(SM) center
    - Intel WiDi
    - Intel Control Center
    - Intel Management Engine Components
    - Intel OpenCL SDK
    - ThinkVantage Communication Utlity

    We just rolled out 190 of the L series and started with a clean image; the only thing Lenovo support were keen to see put back was the battery saver tool.

    More love for Lenevo here, never had such a positive response to a laptop roll out!

  4. Re:I've seen it work on Ask Slashdot: How Do You Deploy Small Office Wi-Fi SSIDs? · · Score: 2

    Indeed, you should be fine! A single SSID across all access points is the way to go but, as the Cisco 1040 series seem to be 802.11n your choice of channels is limited.

    Make sure you only use channel 1, 6 or 11 as the others overlap which can confuse clients; you are better off having two of your five arrays on identical channels than overlapping them. Just try to keep the access points with identical channels a reasonable distance apart, so that there is an obvious difference in signal strength.

  6. Re:Hmmm... on Japanese Researchers Transmit 3Gbps Using Terahertz Frequencies · · Score: 1

    You'd have to be in the same room as the router for this to work.

    Sounds ideal, I'll have one in each classroom please!

  7. Re:Too late... Blackberry is on my 'Do Not Buy' li on BlackBerry 10 Unveiled · · Score: 1

    I was a BB user and couldn’t wait for my contract to die; I won’t trouble them ever again.

    I was desperate for Samsung to release the S3 already, but I couldn't stall any longer 'cos the three other guys on my shared plan wanted their iPhones, so I went with the HTC OneX and I’m pretty darn pleased with it!

    One of the iPhone users has already admitted he made a mistake and another is wavering!

    Loving the schadenfreude Android gives me at the moment!

  8. Re:It's all interesting on Squadron of Lost WWII Spitfires To Be Exhumed In Burma · · Score: 2

    All but the last one.

    If they return in a semi-reasonable condition, I predict a frenzied bidding war when whoever ends up owning these auctions them off!

  9. Re:Useful tool on Competition To Identify Sexual Predators In Chat Logs · · Score: 2

    Definition of USEFUL (Merriam-Webster) 1: capable of being put to use; especially : serviceable for an end or purpose

  10. Re:But... on The Politics of the F.D.A. · · Score: 1

    No, but they might just opt for the slightly smaller bucket, given that it tastes like cardboard anyhow.

  11. Re:LSD to cure Alcoholism? Yeeees... on LSD Can Treat Alcoholism · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Some alcoholics, when confronted with their problem, think “I know, I’ll use LSD.” Now they have two problems.
