  1. List of AJAX Webmail clients? on Open Source AJAX Webmail · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Anyone got a somewhat comprehensive list of AJAX Webmail packages? Doesnt have to be only OSS.

  2. Re:Pattern recognition on Interview with the Creator of BitTorrent · · Score: 2, Funny

    thats cool! take him to vegas, see if he notices anything

  3. Re:Asterisk has good WAF... on Build Your Own PBX · · Score: 1

    What is the hardware required to run this? I RTFA, but it deals with softphones, rather than plain old phones.

    I'd like to know what the "PCI 2.2 for the cards to drive Plain Old Phones" card is. If its anywhere near the ~$10 that the card to bring in lines on, I'd have no problem buyin stuff to play :)

  4. check the screen size of your browser on Google Launches Mapping Service · · Score: 1

    I just noticed that my map is quite big, usually the maps mapquest/yahoo shows are smaller. then I resized my browser. the map resized with it. its still 'full screen'. do they not think of everything?

  5. Re:Can't grill anymore on Lean Mean Grilling PC Mod · · Score: 4, Funny

    But the grilling functionality is lost!

    Not if he OC'd an AMD

  6. the newer AV's do on Spyware/Adware Prevention In Large Deployments? · · Score: 4, Informative

    I usually dont reccomend upgrading antivirus programs to my clients, but the latest round of 2005 versions basically have adware in with their virus defs. Not sure about the corporate level stuff, but almost all the major consumer AVs do.

  7. duh on AMD vs Intel: A Linux Bout · · Score: 4, Funny

    They suggest the Athlon 64 3500+ over the P4 560

    Well yea. The AMD has more and bigger numbers. Its got to be gooder.

  8. prepare to READ on Best Training in Linux Administration? · · Score: 0

    read howto's, read readme's, read INSTALL's, read everything. Linux, while being much more powerful and capable than windows, isn't all point and click. you'll have to change settings in files, and you'll have to read to know which settings to change

  9. Courthouse on Caller ID Falsification Service · · Score: 4, Funny

    I knew a friend who worked in a courthouse, and she'd call me from the phone in there.

    The caller id was (999) 999-9999. Always thought that was kinda cool.

  10. hrmm on New Hiptop (Sidekick II) Photos · · Score: 1
    I OCR'd the pictures and got this:

    can anyone tell me what it means?
  11. whatever on Night Vision Goggles vs Pirates · · Score: 1

    I'm guessing most of the people who download/buy a camcorder'd version wouldnt be paying to go see the movie anyways.

  12. april 1 on IF Quake Takes Fragging To Whole New Level · · Score: 4, Funny

    editors want to play jokes? time to start modding the "First Post!"s up to +5 Informative

  14. Re:The $700.00 toilet seat... on Bootstrapping Start-ups · · Score: 1

    there are $100 hammers out there. W/ the heads made of titanium, they're extremely light. you can pound nails all day and not have a sore/tired arm after the first 5 min.

  15. Re:It's funny that college kids.... on Swedish Student Partly Solves 16th Hilbert Problem · · Score: 1, Funny

    I doubt there's a single hetero- or homosexual female on this earth that will sleep with someone because they solved a math problem.

    you underestimate the loneliness of the slashdot crowd

  16. YRO getting out of hand? on W3C Requests Eolas Patent Re-Examination · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    seriously, I see 6 YRO stories on the front page, out of 15. Is this a news for NERDS site, or a political statement?

    I'm all for the occasional YRO, thrown in with games, science, hardware, etc. but > 30% of the front page for one topic? *sigh*

  17. erm, hows the handling? on Birth of a Motorized Surfboard · · Score: 1

    I've been surfing for 15 years, and have many a time wished I had a little trolling motor to put on the front or back of my board to save my arms from paddling (not paddling out, but just paddling against current in larger waves to stay in one spot). This board may do something like that, but frankly, from the looks of this design, it'll do little more.

    I have HUGE doubts about it's ability to handle in actual waves. See, when surfing (longboards OR shortboards), the tiniest of touches turns the board. You need to be able to turn the entire board with the same amount of pressure it takes to push your gas pedal 1/2 way down. And the turning radius needs to be very tight, with this amount of pressure.

    Seems like they're putting a top fuel dragster on an F1 course.

  18. I've seen this movie.. on Profile of an eBay Scammer · · Score: 2, Funny

    One day at Disney World, Nelson met a Disney employee. She eventually moved into his motel room. He told her that his wife had been killed in a car accident and that he was a special agent with the Department of Justice. Nelson said that because of the types of cases he was working on, the agency had had to move him out of New Hampshire for his own safety -- and that she shouldn't tell anyone that they were living together.

    He got that from True Lies, huh?

  19. hrmm on An Enlightened Look at an Over-Lighted World · · Score: 2, Funny

    who's bright idea was this anyways?

  20. we're screwed on Clock Ticking for Hubble · · Score: 5, Funny

    NASA has long planned to end Hubble's spectacular run and bring it down in 2010 to make way in the budget for the James Webb Space Telescope, scheduled to be launched in 2011.

    Theres a gap there in time where we wont have a telescope up there. this will be the end of the world, as we wont be able to see the asteroid comming at earth in time to send our best deep crust drillers to drop a nuke in it and split it up!

  21. Dont Copy That Floppy! on MPAA to Launch Anti-Piracy Commercials · · Score: 2, Funny

    is it going to look like this?

  22. What I want on Sorting the Spam from the Ham · · Score: 5, Interesting

    is a scalable popfile for larger organizations. If I could get popfile (with its super-easy-to-train/use-web-interface) that would run on my linux server, scan my IMAP mail server (well, incoming mail would actually work fine, too. I've heard they have a smtp plugin for it in cvs), and then have a popfile config page for each person, or mayby tie it into the imap/smtp server's login. THAT would rock. I've heard spamasassin does Bayesian, but I couldnt see how it was trainable (and I dont want other people on my server to read each others mail, obviously).

  23. I'll go ahead and say it.. on Eyes on Karamba · · Score: 3, Funny
