  1. it means sick on RMS Weighs In On SPF/Sender-ID License · · Score: 1

    MARID means sick in my language.. so it
    does sound funny to me.

  2. So much for open systems then! on Hatch Pushes INDUCE Act · · Score: 1

    So much for open systems!

  3. don't move your eye on Experiences with Laser Eye Surgery? · · Score: 1

    Don't move your eye during the treatment or you could have complications. That's what a friend of mine did and now he has a problem with an eye because of the laser treatment he did (because he moved his eye and it hit his retina or something else).

  4. Re:Is this really an invention? on Microsoft Pockets Patent for Encouraging TV Viewing · · Score: 1

    Italian tv stations used to do that too, I'm sure.
    Most definitely in the 80's and 90's.
    And I remember italian quiz king Mike Bongiorno doing competitions based upon sponsors, so that's quite a bit of prior art...

  5. Re:I doubt I'll be watching it much on Stargate Atlantis Tomorrow · · Score: 1

    Well Doctor Who did successfully have vampires and it was still very 'scientific' (if you can call a show that way)...

  6. Re:over my dead body on Gates Predicts DVD Obsolete In 10 Years · · Score: 1

    I predict people will be using some form of Linux by then and Windows will have obsoleted itself

  7. Re:Send up Space Ship One! on NASA Urged to Reconsider Shuttle Mission to HST · · Score: 1

    But the Rutans in Doctor Who were bad aliens, no?
    They used to fight against the Sontarans...

  8. Re:my take on Star Trek XI: Romulan Wars? · · Score: 1

    Ok, and then we'll have to have a new TOS, because its history has been completely changed, right?

    Tell that to Berman so he'll make a mess of TOS too. He'll make an 'imaginative remake' of it ala Galactica.

  9. Re:Interview For Patent Attorney on EU Ministers Went Off-Brief In Patent Vote · · Score: 1

    "They explained that if the law was changed, it would only prevent the open source crowd from copying other software and would not limit them from innovating" = "Only Microsoft can write a word processor" etc ?

    Whatever happened to free competition and freedom itself? The EU is supposed to be in favour of free competition which is the opposite of what this entails.

    Let's keep writing to our representatives on this issue.

  10. Re:For the best? on Daleks Exterminated From New Dr. Who · · Score: 1

    I've always liked crossovers...
    I would like to see crossover movies. Impossible? Never say never. Assuming the licensing deal can be done, why not?

  11. Re:Sounds great to me on Daleks Exterminated From New Dr. Who · · Score: 1

    Gallifrey was destroyed in the recent Doctor Who BBC Books together with most Time Lords.

    I think the books will be ignored completely by the new production.

  12. Re:Cross-over! on Daleks Exterminated From New Dr. Who · · Score: 1

    In my crossover Dr Who fanfics Sutekh was a Goa'uld anyway....

  13. Re:Doctor Who invented the Borg anwyway on Daleks Exterminated From New Dr. Who · · Score: 1

    Plus the Sontarans appeared on Star Trek Voyager, didn't you know?

    People might think Doctor Who ripped of Star Trek if they see the Sontarans now!

  14. Re:The Real Question... on Daleks Exterminated From New Dr. Who · · Score: 1

    I think cheap looks are out and the 21st century will be in, with sfx but with good character based stories as a basis.

  15. Re:Raimi and CGI on Spider-Man 2 Reviewed [updated] · · Score: 1

    About the Hulk movie, I preferred the old tv version. It had more character and humanity than this one. And the Spiderman movies are good because of character and humanity...

  16. sdotted? on Lauren Weinstein: If MTV Calls, Hang Up · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Has the site been slashdotted already?

  17. Re:Getting the word out is hard on Another Zero-Day IE Scripting Exploit · · Score: 1

    I read PCW occasionally and I find they have no trouble mentioning other products they like or prefer...

  18. Re:PHP-Nuke? on Weblog System Features Compared · · Score: 1

    The problem of phpnuke is it's got security vulnerabilities (or it had at some time), plus the author kept others from submitting patches to it in a very un-open source fashion.

    Many migrated from phpnuke to other CMS such as Xoops.

  19. Re:Cell phone companies might prevent this on Cell Phone Ringtones Give Music Industry Another Headache · · Score: 1

    You can't prevent uploading files via bluetooth or serial cable, which is what I normally do.

    Actually the mobile phone's manual itself encourages this and explains it. I am in Europe which might explain the difference.

  20. Re:A new dose of life! on Shatner May Return to Star Trek (Briefly?) · · Score: 1

    Wasn't part of the Enterprise show about how the temporal cold war has changed the established timeline?

    I haven't watched Enterprise yet - since it's not on in my area as yet, mind you.

    But perhaps Enterprise is just an aberrant timeline, or the things you see happening (cloaking devices in that time etc) will be changed by the end...

  21. Re:J.T. Kirk = More Bloody Time Travel - No Thanks on Shatner May Return to Star Trek (Briefly?) · · Score: 1

    What if they made his books canon?

    I mean the return of Kirk books... They aren't in continuity, but they could be if TPTB decide it would help the franchise. Probably it's the only way they could do it, and Shatner would agree to it. It would 'reverse' the TNG death we saw, I have no problem with that.

  22. Re:Sigh on Super MP3 Will Feature User Tracking · · Score: 1

    Well ogg sounds better at even lower bitrates.

  23. qmail is all patches on Postfix 2.1 Released · · Score: 1

    Qmail is now all patches. I tried it some time ago and had to switch to Postfix which was more robust.

    I haven't looked back.

  24. Re:Sendmail upgrade? on Postfix 2.1 Released · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't go to Exim from Postfix.

    Postfix is a great robust program and I wouldn't go to anything else from it.

  25. Re:You've all been duped! A week late! on Technology Spontaneously Combusts In Sicily · · Score: 2, Informative

    The story is not a joke - it was out months ago
    on italian tv and other news sites including www.worldnetdaily.com.
