  1. Re:Why is NTFS read only. on OpenBSD 4.9 Released · · Score: 1

    "driver", daemon, kernel module whatever the hell you want to call it.
    You know the source for that OS was leaked. I'm not saying developers should just outright copy it. Just look at the source off record and make your own implementation of it.

  2. Why is NTFS read only. on OpenBSD 4.9 Released · · Score: 4, Funny

    Why is NTFS always read only. It shouldn't be so hard to make a proper file system driver what the hell?

  4. Re:Just in case you've been living under a rock on Geologists Say California May Be Next · · Score: 1

    Hey now, time travelers need that stuff. Nothing like checking the newspaper machine for the paper and looking at the date and recent major disasters.

    Where are our floating cities, we've been promised floating cities and flying cars. I want my god damned flying car!

    Why do people hate frames damn it. They are so useful :|

  8. Re:NoScript on Microsoft Adds Selective ActiveX Filtering to IE9 · · Score: 2

    The basic features of NoScript exist for IE since forever, you can define custom levels of trust for stuff like Javascript, cookies and ActiveX per zones, you can stick sties into trusted and untrusted with variety of customization for each. It's just that getting to that and configuring it is going to be hectic for joe6pack and no one has noticed it.

    I wouldn't care about this myself if I didn't have to support IE for people who absolutely must use it. :\

  9. Re:FF == the next Netscape? on Firefox 4 the Last Big Release From Mozilla · · Score: 1

    Oh that's an entirely different type of sharing than what I had in mind. I can see how this can be a problem with duplicate content.

  10. Re:FF == the next Netscape? on Firefox 4 the Last Big Release From Mozilla · · Score: 1

    Get rid of those. There's no legit reason two tabs should be allowed to share information.

    You guys get ads? With Firefox? In what age do you live? Get ad-block!

  12. Re:FF == the next Netscape? on Firefox 4 the Last Big Release From Mozilla · · Score: 1

    Here's a simple idea for you. When i close a tab everything associated with it memory wise should be freed. You can tag stuff when its alocated that it belongs to so-and-so tab. When the tab is closed everything, EVERYTHING, even plugins and JS get killed/freed. There. Memory leaks fixed.

  13. Re:Call me an asshole... on Device Addresses Healthcare Language Barrier · · Score: 1

    You see, that's the problem with brand names for pharmaceuticals. It's plain stupid. All drugs should be referred to by the main ingredient( it's already on the packaging but it should be the main thing about their names) Not some marketing bullshit designed to appeal to people.

  14. Re:WTF is up with /. and PayPal? on PayPal Reinstates Fund For WikiLeaker Manning · · Score: 1

    It sure will eliminate money theft. Even if the crook kills you the govt can recall your money and give it to your relatives.

  15. Re:WTF is up with /. and PayPal? on PayPal Reinstates Fund For WikiLeaker Manning · · Score: 1

    Sure there is. Remove all privacy inherent in hard cash. Don't have untraceable money. Use cryptographically sound multi-factor authentication with a ridiculous number of bits in the key.
    Make "money" revoke-able so when some one looses a case in court and is required to pay money if they don't WANT to, the governing body could revoke that money as simple as pressing a button.

    Yes because everyone that matters will be so outraged you helped people not be censored and slaughtered.

    If you have that problem you should try the grease monkey script i made: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/96005

    You used the tag for the cite. The previous poster was complaining that had been dropped in favor of .

    Reading your comment with the "quote parent" button makes much more sense.

  19. Suuuure. on German Foreign Office Going Back To Windows · · Score: 1

    Let me translate that for you: Our brain dead paper pushers couldn't be arsed to learn the very basic things they need to know in order to use an office suite slightly different than Microsoft's. What do these people need, really, word and an e-mail client? Pffft.

    Nothing stops you from pulling over a truck loaded with amplifiers and a concert grade sound system and blasting WBC's eardrums at their next protest.
    You could do them one better you can turn the volume up so much that the only thing being heard is you rebutting them point by point.
