  1. Dr Who - Cybermen Vaccination on Gold and Helium Combine for Needle-Free Injections · · Score: 1

    Sounds like a good vaccination to prevent humans from being Cybernised (converted into Cybermen!) since they are susceptible to Gold!

  2. Re:What's the legality of "Turning off an OS" on Windows Genuine Advantage Makes Few Friends · · Score: 1

    EULA's aren't valid at least in Europe..

  3. Re:Hard Problems and Large Corporations on WinFS Gets the Axe · · Score: 1

    On the other hand, the problem with stable reiser3 is that it hasn't been updated as you are more active in developing reiser4 (which isn't stable to use yet)..
    As a result some reiser users have switched or are switching to other filesystems, at least for the time being.

  4. Re:Had to exchange a motherboard on Linux 2.6.17 Released · · Score: 1

    You should connect it to the Promise SATA ports - they should be more reliable too. I've never had problems under Linux with those.

  5. Re:Buggy! on Google Releases Google Browser Sync Extension · · Score: 1

    'Request timeout'...

  6. Re:Buggy! on Google Releases Google Browser Sync Extension · · Score: 1

    It didn't work for me too.
    Too bad. It seemed like an interesting concept.

  7. Dr Who Can Regenerate (Now We Can Regenerate too! on Stem Cells in the Heart? · · Score: 2, Funny

    So now it will be relatively easy to imitate Dr Who's regeneration ability. Remember the Doctor has two hearts, too, so we could grow an extra heart also. Hmmm...

  8. Re:AntiVir is going downhill on Best of the Free Anti-virus Choices? · · Score: 1

    Funny, my antivir doesn't do that. It rarely brings up a nag screen. Perhaps you need to update the program. If you still have last year's executable installed it might do that.

  9. Paramount Says It is Not Abandoning Trek on Giant Paramount Auction of Star Trek Items · · Score: 2, Informative
  10. Re:The Media Is Retarded on Sun to Release Java Source Code · · Score: 1

    I'm not aware that Microsoft wanted to open source Java?

    Do you know something I dont?

  11. McCabe's? on Explaining Complexity in Software Development? · · Score: 1

    McCabe's complexity measure (count no of conditions and add 1) perhaps?

  12. Re:Option 3 - Star Trek ala Harry Potter on J.J. Abrams To Direct New 'Star Trek' Film · · Score: 1

    For a second I thought this was a Welcome back, Kotter reference.

  13. Re:I'd rather have... on J.J. Abrams To Direct New 'Star Trek' Film · · Score: 1

    Actually the Dr Who answer is that the timeline gets messed up by various temporal interventions or incursions, so I think it's hardly inexplained.

  14. Re:Just use a modern language on Porting to 64-bit Linux · · Score: 1

    Here's a guide to porting to a 64 bit Java environment.
    http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/64b itporting/

    Many Java applications are not written 100% in the Java language. Those apps will need some porting effort. The document also mentions considerations such as the usage of JNI by the native libraries on a 64 bit system.

  15. Re:Just use a modern language on Porting to 64-bit Linux · · Score: 1
  16. So They Are Using the UAV's from Stargate SG-1? on Unmanned Aerial Drones Coming Soon Above U.S. · · Score: 1
  17. No Google on What Would We Lose From a Regionalized Internet? · · Score: 1

    I'd lose Google for one thing, which would be bad.

  18. Re:They ignored the Bonnie MacBird/Alan Kay bit! on The Story of Tron · · Score: 1

    I thought it was interesting myself.

  19. Re:sudo on Balancing Bad Applications vs. Network Security? · · Score: 4, Interesting
  20. Re:Battlestar on Enzyme Computer Could Live Inside You · · Score: 1

    Didn't they say 'EXTERMINATE'?

  21. What about Doctor Who? on No Time Travel, Sorry · · Score: 1

    What about Doctor Who? And the TARDIS? It can travel through time and space...

    Seriously, I think the author is not being serious and it's just a joke or hoax. And can't you have dt1/dt2 (the 1 and 2's are subscripts)? The author didn't think of that.

  22. Gentoo Linux anyone? on Linux Patch Management · · Score: 2, Interesting

    What about Gentoo's system where you use emerge and emerge sync...
    Did it get a mention, or not?

  23. How to Run Both IE6 and IE7 PB2 On the Same PC on Microsoft IE 7 Goes (More) Beta · · Score: 4, Informative


    This page explains how you can run both on the same PC without needing a virtual machine. It works well for me.

  25. NTSC only? on Google Video Not Ready for Prime Time? · · Score: 1

    As far as I'm aware it's still NTSC only. So european users have to convert their videos to NTSC just because google is still stuck to NTSC only.
