    There are ads on this site? Damn, I have to learn to pay more attention.

  2. New techno-term on Review: Star Wars Episode II, Attack of the Clones · · Score: 1

    To spoil a movie is to "Lone Gunman" it.

  3. ATI Radeon 8500 All in Wonder Support? on Red Hat Linux 7.3 Released · · Score: 1

    Downloading it now. I hope that it supports my AIW 8500. Haven't had any luck gettin X up and running with 7.2.

  4. Don't boycott. on Sharing Still Doesn't Hurt · · Score: 1

    Go to the local library and read his stuff for free. That'll piss him off!

  5. Re:Tons-o-Crap on Attack of the Clones: Less Plastic Crap, More Story? · · Score: 1

    Good GOD, the French have put Jerry Lewis on a pedistal! Jar Jar can't be far behind. Also, if it is German Archeologists, the same could be said. Can anyone say David Hasslehoff?

  6. PULL THE STORY! on The Lone Gunmen Are Dead · · Score: 1

    Perhaps you should PULL THIS!!! until those of us on the WEST coast get to see it. Too late for ME but perhaps others haven't seen your SPOILER yet!!!!

  7. Re:Ironic... on Kazaa Lite: spyware-free version · · Score: 2, Informative

    I wouldn't know. I use Mozilla with no pop-ups.

  8. Re:WORK AROUND! on Don't Hit That Back Button · · Score: 1

    Step 1: Right click on the IE icon on the desktop. Select Delete from the pop up menu.

    Step 2: Go to www.mozilla.org and download the latest version of Mozilla.

    Step 3: Install Mozilla.

    Problem solved.

  9. That's ONE for our side... on Copyright [CBDTPA] Bill Universally Rejected · · Score: 1

    only about 4985 to go.

  10. Time Machine on Stopping Light · · Score: 1

    I have a time machine in my bedroom. I have only been able to go forward in time 8-12 hours at a time. I lie down on it and poof, it is 8-12 hours later.

  11. Eddings Characters on Server Naming Conventions? · · Score: 1

    All of the *nix machines could be people who are allied with the child of light and all of the *doze machines could be servants of Torak.

  12. Re:Just to annoy the RIAA on Server Naming Conventions? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Just an aside here on the whole pr0n music thing: Did you know that the disco music from the Annette Haven movie "Barbara Broadcast" is the music they used later as the "Peoples Court" theme?

  13. Actually, on Jeremiah, a New Series from B5 Creator, Debuts Sunday · · Score: 1

    If you watched OZ, you would know that Perry did a pretty good imitation of a grown up. When he gets a good writer, which JMS is, Perry will do just fine. Warner now, I have my doubts.

  14. Does this mean... on Microsoft to Focus on Security · · Score: 1

    that the whole "Passport" idea is gonna finally disapear? And, will it take "Wallet" with it?

    We can only hope.

  15. Missing the point... on Cheating Detector from Georgia Tech · · Score: 1

    This was used for two undergraduate classes: "Introduction to Computing" (required for any student in the College of Computing) and "Object Oriented Programming" (required for Computer Science majors)." Cuz remember programmers: in the real world you are fired if you consult with a co-worker ;)

    The point in having first and second semester students do their own work is to evaluate what they have learned, not what their roommates, or classmates, have learned. Once they have the basics down, we expect them to work in teams and to collaborate, as long as they document where they got any code.

    I have a hard time having sympathy for someone who turns in work that is not their own, passing it off as their own, and then wondering why they fail. There are rules to follow; the rules are clear; the students agree to follow the rules in order to attend; the rules should be enforced.

  16. Actually, on Borland Kylix/JBuilder License Reviewed · · Score: 1

    If we just don't use the product, the message they will get is that it is not a good product or does not fill a niche. Their efforts in fixing the problem will be focused on those things. However, if they get thousands of letters stating that the license is the reason it is not being used, they will focus their efforts on fixing that.

  17. Jar Jar on Slashback: Squashing, N'Synch, Yopy · · Score: 2, Funny

    Perhaps with enough negative reaction, we can get Anakin to slice Jar Jar in half with that fancy new lightsabre he has.

  18. Lutris EAS on Talk to Sun's 'Open Source Diva' · · Score: 1

    Recently, Lutris announced that they were pulling their J2EE application server EAS from open source. Here is an excerpt from their statement:

    "Today we made a major change to the Enhydra.org site: we stopped the hosting of Enterprise Enhydra. While we regret this action, it is necessary in order to satisfy J2EE licensing restrictions. J2EE has not been released as Open Source. We attempted for more than a year to get an Open Source compatible license for J2EE but have not been successful in this regard. ..."

    My question is: Why is it so difficult to have this project be open source? Other application servers like JBoss are open source and seem to be within the license agreements, why is Lutris such a big deal?

  19. Re:Replying to spammers is fun on When Spammers Try To Sue You · · Score: 1

    LOL, I sent the Nigerian Money Laundering spam to the U.S. Customs Service. They replied that they sent it to their fraud division. Haven't heard anything back on it though.

  20. Re:Time for war. on Attack of the Clones · · Score: 1

    Is that the Arkansas brother of Boba Fett?

  21. How can you tell... on Attack of the Clones · · Score: 1

    the difference between those boy bands? I thought it was the same band that had just gone through a bunch of name changes.

  22. Why settle... on Attack of the Clones · · Score: 1

    for just one of those options. I think that he could handle all of them. Too bad Darth Maul was the one cut in half. I kept hoping through E1 that Jar Jar was goona get a light sabre up the wazoo.

  23. Perfect... on Attack of the Clones · · Score: 1

    If you are gonna have a stupid title like "Attack of the clones" you might as well have some real live clones in it.

    Lucas sold out a long time ago...

  24. Re:Need a FREE version on Comparing the DVRs? · · Score: 1

    What would be cool is if you could send shows to your PC for archival. I would JUMP on a Replay 4000 then.

  25. Re:REphrasing the question on Comparing the DVRs? · · Score: 1

    Ok, buy a Radeon All In Wonder card for your computer and use it. Pretty much the same thing.
