  2. An OFF switch? on Discuss BIOS and Palladium Issues With an AMIBIOS Rep · · Score: 1

    Will I, as the OWNER of my computer, be able to turn this crap off, or is it that I am not the one that should be trusted?

  3. I want... on DIY Ambient Light Keyboard Kit · · Score: 1

    translucent keys that light up, like the cool keyboards used in cop cars. Now that would make gaming in the dark far easier. Too bad all the lit keyboards like that are in the $$ range.

  4. LOL, Redshirt on Fan-Made Star Trek Episode Available for Download · · Score: 1

    They even killed off a redshirt in this one. Too funny.

  6. Everyone seems to forget... on Review: Harry Potter & the Chamber of Secrets · · Score: 1

    These books and movies were produced for KIDS! Of course the plot is gonna be a little weak. Of course adults aren't going to enjoy them as much. They were written for KIDS.

  7. Capital One on Online Banking And Browser Support · · Score: 1

    I have to either boot into windows (unlikely) or use Konquerer with set the user agent to IE 5.5, which then works with no problems so far.

  8. Cathy... on Ask 'Junkyard Wars Diva' Cathy Rogers · · Score: 1

    I guess not many people know that you are actually the producer of these shows. I basically have 4 questions for you. I would like to know how you became the producer / star of this wildly popular show? If you would please come back to JYW so it will be worth watching again? Would you please bring back the original British host? And, like everyone else, will you please marry me?

    Shhhhhhhhhhhh! Don't give them b*stards any ideas!

  14. I wonder why... on Gates and Lasser on Palladium · · Score: 1

    Gates et. al. would be pushing this so hard. Isn't it kind of like them saying, "We can't fix our own problems so we are going to have hardware manufacurers try to fix them for us."?

  17. Re:Finally. on Yucca Mountain Approved for US Nuclear Waste Storage · · Score: 1

    You evidently have never studied the problem or the solution. The containers the waste is stored in will last for longer than the waste will be dangerous. The waste is solidified so ground water contamination is not a concern. When was the last time that mountain saw any significant rainfall that managed to seep that far down.

    Here is a snippet from the reporter's guide to Yucca Mountain (you know, the one no reporter has ever read):

    "The high-level radioactive waste from reprocessing spent nuclear fuel is stored in various forms such as sludge, liquid, or pellets. NRC regulations (10 CFR 60.135) require that liquid high-level radioactive waste be solidified before disposal. DOE plans to solidify this waste by mixing the radionuclides that are not recovered with liquid borosilicate glass specially formulated for this purpose. The mixture is then poured into large metal containers to cool and solidify. This process is known as "vitrification. Only solid high-level radioactive waste will be allowed to be disposed of in the proposed repository at Yucca Mountain."

  18. Open Office on Feasibility of Linux for Public-Access Labs? · · Score: 1

    It rocks and is very MS compatible.

  19. Re:I wonder.... on Crack a Password, Save Norwegian History · · Score: 1

    I'd use a spell checker but copy and paste was far easier. Besides, I don't really give a crap how to spell it.

  20. I wonder.... on Crack a Password, Save Norwegian History · · Score: 1, Redundant

    what is Norweigan for "password".

  21. Office for Linux? on What's the Business Case for Microsoft and Open Source? · · Score: 1

    I have Office for Linux. Go to www.openoffice.org and download it for free. Works great, better than MS Office IMHO, and it interoperates with every MS Office file format I have tried.

    Now, if they would just clone FrontPage for Linux.

  22. Re:preventative medicine on Artificial Intelligence to Predict Sports Injuries · · Score: 1

    Posters on /. miss the point? Impossible! Ignoring the point though, probable.
