  1. In soviet russia on Astrologer Sues NASA Over Comet Probe · · Score: 1

    In soviet russia comets sue you!

  2. OMG on Internet to Pakistan Goes Down · · Score: 1

    Porn is scattered all around the crash site...

  3. Good job! on South African Open Source TV Show · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Slashdot affect + Bittorrent,
    The only thing slashdot does good ;)

  4. Re:why aren't I surprised? on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger for x86 Leaked? · · Score: 1

    Considering the dev kits are standard intel chip/mobos I don't see why not, couldn't be that hard setup tbh

  5. Re:Wait A Minute... on New NASA Budget Woes · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Your sig:
    Why doesn't Wikipedia have a Slashdot article? [wikipedia.org]


    Wikipedia DOES have a slashdot entry.
    don't believe me ?
    see --> http://img212.echo.cx/img212/6633/slashdot8aj.png
    Next time search properly before making your sig. :)

  6. Re:Space has a terrible secret. on Daleks Return to Dr Who · · Score: 1

    I am protected

    Anyway it should be interesting to see what the new ep is like come Saturday :)

  7. Re:Tracker in the summary on Knoppix 3.8.1 is Released · · Score: 1

    You got to love bittorrent :)

  8. Re:Microsoft needs content now. on MS Launches Video Download Service · · Score: 1

    Time Warner already have their own content setup its AOL...if their smart they provide more content and allow users to get AOL BYOA (bring your own access).

    Doing so would give AOL the best of both worlds...more users and PR for the company/brand.

  9. Good Job! on Irish Movie Theatres Go Digital · · Score: 1

    Ohhhh so its classed as a NEW news story because its from enn.ie this time and not the BBC.
    Great job everyone!

  10. Re:Finally Ireland is ahead with something on Irish Cinema Set to Go Digital First · · Score: 1

    If your interested in finding out more info about ADSL in Ireland its worth checking out http://www.irelandoffline.com

    While you can now get 2MB ADSL in Ireland for under 50 (euro) a month, Eircom (Irelands largest ISP) has a 4GB and 8GB cap per month on there home products and out of all of there Business DSL product there's only one that has no cap.

    Another big factor is the fact that most people pay 30 euro a month for line rental which is pretty expensive tbh.

  11. Finally Ireland is ahead with something on Irish Cinema Set to Go Digital First · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This makes me laugh...Ireland is behind several european countries when it comes to ADSL rollout with regards to cost and speed and yet we're going to have sat links so cinemas can get movies?

    Is this there way of trying to stop piracy over the net? :)

  12. Ireland & Postcodes on Address Formatting for International Mailing? · · Score: 1

    As someone that born/lives in Ireland its extremnely annoying when I order stuff on-line and even when I select Ireland I am still prompted to enter a postcode.
    This generally ends up being N/A or 12345, surely forms should forgo the postcode once Ireland is selected?

    The nearest thing Ireland has to a postcode is Dublin 4 or Dublin 1.

  13. Crap CRT's at work on Flickering Curiosity? · · Score: 1

    I've flat out refuse to use one brand of monitor we have at work, even at 85Hz they give me a headache after about 10-15min.

    The LCD's at work ain't much better as there cheap things, so basically I'm limited in what PC's I can use at work...which is good and bad :/

    Anything at 60Hz is just plain crazy in fairness!

  14. k3b on Nero Burning for Linux · · Score: 1

    I've been using Nero for years and I gota say k3b and nero are almost the same.
    Choices are always good though :)

  15. no technical supervisors are retards on Non-Technical Managers in a Technical Company? · · Score: 1

    In short no, explaining a technical issues to a manager or supervisor is painful at best.
    - They don't understand things
    - they end up asking people
    - Ultimatly the 'other' person makes the decision for them
    - They don't understand why they are delays etc for technical reasons.

    Oghh the list goes on, shoot me now!

  17. Re:Aaaaah, stereotypes on United Kingdom Leads the World in TV Downloads · · Score: 1

    it wouldn't be the first time a english paper included R.Ireland in a survey about all things UK!

  18. Re:Aaaaah, stereotypes on United Kingdom Leads the World in TV Downloads · · Score: 1

    no, I have a problem with Americans who voted for Bush though :)

    I'm curious did they include NI or perhaps R.Ireland in these stats?
