  1. haha on Forget The Pentium, Hack The 68K · · Score: 1

    The mouse must have been a PC fan, he showed you what he thought of macs.

  2. time to on UK Building Eavesdropping Infrastructure · · Score: 2

    Encrypt your email. Litter the message body with words like bomb fire terrorist nuke gun clinton and attach the actual text in an encrpyted file. If they try and make you decrpyt it just say you forgot the password in all the fuss.

  3. great on Metallica's "Justice" And Napster · · Score: 1

    Say you wrote a few reports for a college class, then I guess you woulnd't mind if I made copies and turned them in as my work. After all, there was no theft I just copied it. Theft does not always have to be physical. Its also ok to break laws you don't think are fair? Why not go about changing them instead?

  4. try reading on AMD Announces "Duron" Processor · · Score: 1

    Do a dejanews search on alt.comp.hardware.overclocking and see how many people have burned out their cpu's. None. People have been running their celeron 300a's at 450 since they originally came out, and so far no ill effects. How can it affect the mobo to begin with? You can't just randomly pick a bus speed and burn out the mobo. Its designed to run at that speed. Instead of a cpu lasting 10 years it might last 5, which is forever in computer terms.

  5. why wait? on AMD Announces "Duron" Processor · · Score: 1

    I can make a $40 celeron 333 run as fast as a pIII 500 or even faster, depending on the bus speed. If it burns out then who cares? Its only $40.

  6. never had a problem on Abit Violating The GPL? · · Score: 1

    My BP6 has been running great since last september. Its been ultra stable even when overclocking. More stable than my old p200 with a DFI mobo.

  7. what if on Dr. Dre Might Sue Napster Users? · · Score: 1

    the tables were turned? How would you feel about losing your money? Its a capitalist society. He doesn't set the prices on cd's. In fact he probably gets around 50 cents from each one.

  8. actually on Create Your Own Psuedo-RDRAM · · Score: 1

    I have *never* seen a cpu be burned out from overclocking. Thats why most people use celerons, they are cheap and plentiful. Do you expect your current computer to still be around in a few years? Its not just a few more Mhz either. Since you are pushing the FSB beyond 100Mhz it starts getting faster than a pII. My dual celeron 333's have been running at a solid 500Mhz since september of last year. 167Mhz is a definite improvement. I can run them comfortably at 520 or even 530, but kernel compiles usually fail. My best compile time is 2:11 seconds.

  9. I see on Dr. Dre Might Sue Napster Users? · · Score: 1

    Just because he has money, he doesn't deserve to continue making it? Great logic.

  10. LOL on Swift Justice? Mobile Justice In Brazil · · Score: 1

    Instead of a GPF it will use a different build of some obscure lib and will just seg fault or sig 11.

  11. we're talking about GUI's here on What Is Important In A User Interface? · · Score: 2

    Your average person doesn't want a fancy looking WM with tons of buttons and icons. Thats why people are scared of computers, they see a screen full of buttons and icons and feel overwhelmed. MS does have the speed, windows is the best platform for gaming and multimedia (besides BeOS) and for simplicity of a GUI they have that as well. A single button to launch scroll out menus that collapse when you select something.

  12. Cisco a monopoly? on AOL + Time-Warner Worse Than Microsoft? · · Score: 1

    Please explain how they are a monopoly? No one is forcing you to buy Cisco switches or routers. Its not like Cisco equipment only works with tcp/ip, or they suddenly rewrite tcp/ip so that it only works with their routers. If you don't like Cisco then buy something from Nortel or 3com. Like I said before no one is forcing Cisco equipment on you. Tcp/ip is an established standard, any brand of router or switch should work.

  13. 3C509 cards on OpenBSD Interview: Strengths, Tradeoffs And Plans · · Score: 1

    I use two of those cards in my P75 firewall with OpenBSD 2.6. Never had a problem with them being recognized or supported. Considering the box came used from onsale.com its been Uber stable for months.

  14. FUD on Where Can I Find Cell Phone Recommendations? · · Score: 0

    The antenna is not directional, it radiates in every direction. I doubt the small power output from those batteries are going to give you a brain tumor. Measure how much power is being generated from the monitor you sit in front of every day.

  15. this may be a dumb question on Linux Appliances · · Score: 0

    but why would you need a unix like OS for something imbedded? does it really need all the unix features and services? I think QNX would be a better choice.

  16. Ummm right..... on Four Arrested For Internet 'Theft' At OSU · · Score: 0

    Ok you say public money pays for it? Does that give the public the right to tap in and host a mp3/warez/pr0n site?

  17. big deal on Linux And Hip Hop · · Score: 0

    I'm racist as hell and I don't hide it. So its against the law to be racist now? Last time I checked it was freedom of expression.

  18. well on Linux Gains AltiVec Support · · Score: 0

    http://www.sun.com/servers/highend/10000/spec.html

    Check out that URL and see why. How does scalability and clustering sound or internal bandwidth? Not to mention 4 meg of cache on each CPU. Hot swapping of nearly everything.

  19. you don't get it on Linux And Los Lobos Supercomputer · · Score: 1

    Oh yeah I'd like about a dozen 486's sitting around needing tons of space and power. Meanwhile a dual pIII would kill it. Don't forget the cost of gigabit ethernet and switches. Fast ethernet is still no match for craylink or ccNUMA which averages around 600-700meg/sec, and under ideal conditions gigabit is still 120meg/sec. It might be good for cracking seti blocks but moving around tons of data no way.

  20. Why this doesn't bother me on NVidia and Linux Troubles · · Score: 0

    If they release binary only drivers, big deal? I could care less about looking at the source if they work. I bet a good 90% of the people here download the source to something, compile it and never take a look at anything. Did you read every line of the latest kernel, or every line of xfree86? I don't think so you downloaded binaries.

  21. why even play it on DeCSS To Be Broadcast Over Oz TV · · Score: 1

    This isn't going to help your lawsuit any, its just going to piss off the MPAA even more. Get an APEX dvd player with the loopholes menu and disable CSS and Macrovision the easy way. $179 at Circuit City.

  22. Don't forget Tekram on Adaptec Supporting Ultra160 On IA-64 Linux · · Score: 0

    Their ftp site has kernel drivers and boot disk images for their scsi controllers. Not to mention they support FreeBSD, Linux, NetBSD, SCO Unix, Solaris, Unixware and Win2k.

  23. not to mention on Confirmed: U.S. Spies On European Corporations · · Score: 0

    The infamous Bilderberger meetings that take place with the worlds most powerful people. Did you hear that during his deposition John Huang pleaded the 5th ammendment like 2000 times? Thats right, two thousand. Clinton himself is a socialist. He rallied for it while in england, and dodging the vietnam war.

  24. $180 Apex DVD player on Play Region 1 DVDs On A Japanese PS2 · · Score: 0

    from Circuit City has the special "loopholes" menu that allows you pick what region you want, disable CSS and disable macrovision. Not to mention it plays VCD's and ISO formatted cds with MP3 files. http://www.nerd-out.com

  25. well on Fragna Cum Laude: A B.A. in Quake · · Score: 0

    well my purpose is all of those. trolls post something inflamatory to create a bunch of replies from people who can't ignore the obvious troll. I created a real account to get the automatic score +1 and get noticed. The archiebunker nickname seemed appropriate with the stormfront.org website. I'm not really serious about it.
