    Firefox 8 has known exploits, it's not safe.

  2. Re:Finally, decent write speed from Intel ... on Intel Unveils SSDs With 6Gbit/Sec Throughput · · Score: 1

    The 80gb Intel X25-M is/was a decently fast, really affordable solid state drive, even at the $240 I paid for mine. Easily dollar-for-dollar the most effective computer upgrade I've ever made.

    a 100%.

    Please stop doing this.

    On one version of the cover, they apparently are powering a lamp.

  9. Re:Yo, Jimmy, I've got an idea: on Should Wikipedia Just Accept Ads Already? · · Score: 1

    The word you are looking for is "dominant." That is, unless somebody modified the Wiktionary page while I wasn't looking.

  10. Re:Some Questions on EPA Knowingly Allowed Pesticide That Kills Bees · · Score: 2

    Try again.

  11. Re:You can't fix stupid on Google Wants To Take Away Your Capslock Key · · Score: 1

    If they're smarter than you, they'll be VI users and it will be replaced with another "Esc" key.

    You can write 4chan in any web-development framework.

  21. Re:That's a great idea! on Sandisk Debuts World's Smallest SSD Yet · · Score: 1

    ... the company I work for entitled "Imaging these will be a bitch" (digital forensics company).

    That's a strange name for a company.

  22. Re:Make them cheaper, not smaller on Sandisk Debuts World's Smallest SSD Yet · · Score: 1

    A couple of 7200 RPM raided will provide nearly the nearly same performance for a much lower cost.

    If you're talking big sequential transfers, sure. If you're talking random access, you're not even close.

    I substituted an an Intel X-25M G2 80g SSD for a 10k RPM Raptor as my main OS drive. It cost me exactly $244.10 at the time and was easily the best performance/$ upgrade I've ever done.

  23. Re:Wait, What? on France Says D-Star Ham Radio Mode Is Illegal · · Score: 1

    Transmitting a message encoded with a proprietary codec could be considered an inducement to buy the products that contain the codec IC (from what I've read, the only way of decoding these messages) and may therefore be considered a de facto commercial message.

  24. Re:in other words... on HP Confirms Slate To Run WebOS · · Score: 1

    WebOS is already far beyond Apple in software. The hardware part shouldn't be too hard with the latest generation of SOCs hitting the market.
