    Ubuntu's meant shit, and LinuxMint just changes your search pages.

    I wonder which is more secure....Windows Server 2003 fully patched but no configuration changes, or a fully patched XP with about 20 of the really troublesome services disabled.

    Yup. And when you're sitting there for hours and trying to explain to someone that its no longer in the menu, but at the bottom and they need to double click it.....oh shit they just can't follow you.

    I enjoy the Ribbon in Outlook, but thats it.

    Again, with accessing the internet in general you have to trust invisible code running on a foreign machine. And if you disagree, just tell me your ISP. I guaruntee you they have all sorts of invisible code.

    Take off the tin-foil hat and climb out of the steel box, please.

    Lenovo disables it on almost all of their laptops, but its a simple step to go into bios and change the setting.

    Dell disables it on a few random laptops, like the 1420N and D830, but once again its in the bios....usually under POST settings.

    Ummm....ok.

    I was referring to the main post made that once the ISP's number of active users went over the limit of their WebSense subscription, users over that limit had fully unblocked website access.

    Zed made a comment that Websense can be reconfigured so that if you go over the user limit, users over that limit have all requests blocked (as in, all internet access blocked).

    I commented on the fact that it was against their interest to block internet access to their customers.

    You made a silly rant, and need to take your meds :)

    Right, but why would an ISP want to block internet access to its users?

  18. Re:ISPs or the Gov't? on Yemenis Should Be Incensed At Websense · · Score: 1

    TeleYemen seems to be the main ISP, and there are a few other very small VSAT and broadband providers.

    If there is gov't oversight, controlling one ISP would make things easier.

    I'd guess there is, with a (dead) link to the president's website right on their main page: http://www.y.net.ye/

  21. Re:12" too large? on Is Intel Killing 12-Inch Displays On Netbooks? · · Score: 1

    The keyboard should be the first thing that people look at on netbooks. I don't care what anyone says, but the Gateway LT3103u keyboard is 1000x more comfortable than anything smaller than the 11.6 screen at 1366 x 768. Its just a low-power 1.2ghz athlon with 2 gigs of ram, a 250gb hdd, a radeon x1270, and a 3.5 to 5hr battery life, and at 350$ shipped its worth every penny. Being able to watch 720p on the go once in a blue moon is all i need, and if i wanted more features i would spend more money. Plus with 2GB I can throw Windows 7 or LinuxMint or anything on there and enjoy it.

    You better look over the list of exclusives, and then try a few. Seriously, alot of them were completely amazing for the PS2, and I bet the exclusive list for the PS3 will be just as good. If it can play blu-rays as good or better than the old one, then i'll get it for a dual-purpose player.

  25. Re:Dumb AND obsessively repetitive... on Finding New and Unintended Ways of Playing Games · · Score: 1

    There was a bug in Naruto: Way of the Ninja where if you bought one attack before another you would end up with 99% completed. You're basically supposed to run around the city trying to make everyone like you, and the attack you need to buy 2nd to last is essential to that 100%. Even with 100% though, I found one person in the city that still has an unhappy face above their head....

    Just remember that flashing tits is more important than learning your 7th and final attack in Naruto.

    The game was designed well, has horrible cutscene selection, and gives out rediculous amounts of those 360 gamer points. It wasn't too bad at all.
