  1. Re:I find this hard to believe. on Meteor May Have Wiped Out Middle East Civilization · · Score: 1

    Do you have any idea what you are talking about?

    I didn't think so.

  2. Re:States Carry On on Microsoft, DoJ Reach Tentative Settlement · · Score: 1

    Well the article says that Microsoft is in talks with the states as well.

  3. Watch out RedHat!!!!!!! on EU May Fine Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Better watch what you bundled with RedHat Linux...... Those browsers, editors, and utilities have got to go!

  4. Re:Is this just the old Unicode exploit? on New (More) Annoying Microsoft Worm Hits Net · · Score: 1

    I saw a similar attack to this several weeks ago. Is it an older worm or was it someone testing their worm?

  5. Re:Programers unite on More WTC News · · Score: 1

    Well you could have said where you found it.

  6. Re:Poll: Rebuild Trade Center or Not? on More WTC News · · Score: 1

    I would work in it.

    We must rebuild. Not rebuilding is letting the terrorists win.

  7. Re:DONATE BLOOD on World Trade Towers and Pentagon Attacked · · Score: 1

    What if you can't donate blood because you spent too much time in England?

    2001-04-28 12:01:34



    Just a wild guess.

  9. Re:Could Someone "Become You"? on Hong Kong Smart Identity Cards In 2003 · · Score: 1

    Uh, I got a hair cut, lost 20 pounds, and changed the color of my eyes, and got the mole on my forehead removed...

  10. AOL Anyone on A Letter from 2020 · · Score: 1

    The author of this short story (not article) should have focused on the monopolistic tendacies of AOL instead of Microsoft.

  11. Have You Ever Considered the Instructor? on Coding Classes & Required Development Environments? · · Score: 1

    Now think about something, you are an instructor, be it a professor or a TA at a university, and you have a class full of incoming freshman, most of which had never programmed before. Now, do you want to take the time to teach all of the different platforms and options out there or do you choose one to focus on, because that makes your life either. And if some of your students are familiar with programming on a different enviroment, hopefully they are competent enough to learn another environment.

  12. ABC Isn't the First on ABC Ads Target Answering Machines? · · Score: 1

    I don't know about everyone else or even how common this is, but I have received numerous telemarketing messages on my answering machine which were clearly intended to be recorded there. A normal telemarketing recording would start as soon as the machine picked up, but these clearly started "after the beep." I get so many hangup calls that it is hard for me to say that I have been affected by answering the phone when one of these beasts call.

  13. Description Fails to Mention... on Tethers Will Be Tested To Boost, Deorbit Payloads · · Score: 1

    The description fails to mention that the article also discusses how the tether is "current carrying" and can be used to provide power to the craft as well.

  14. Mac on BSD? No problem. on The Challenges Of Integrating Unix And Mac OS · · Score: 1

    From the paper itself, it seems almost as if there were no big problems in creating a BSD substructure for the MacOS. I wonder what the catch is?

  15. Re:Wow on Slashback: Interoperability, Royalty, Fire · · Score: 1

    Slashdot seems to be jumping the gun more often (or just flat getting things wrong). The number of slashbacks does seem to be growing exponentially.

  16. Re:Why would anyone use an alpha processor? on 1.4-1.6 GHz Alphas · · Score: 1

    According to Intel press release, Intel actually owns the Alpha semiconductor production.

  17. Re:Why would anyone use an alpha processor? on 1.4-1.6 GHz Alphas · · Score: 1

    The funny thing about asking why use an Intel processor when discussing Alpha is that Intel owns Alpha's semiconductor production.
