  1. Re:Quit wasting your time here on Competition To Find Aussie PM's Email Address · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Oh come on, it's pretty amusing. Get over yourself. Unless of course you are a virgin?

  2. I heard about this on Sub-Orbital Skydiving · · Score: 1

    They interviewed her on NPR. She only has a handful of jumps under her belt and her highest jump was from less than 1/3 the height of this one. It will be interesting to see if she survives it.

  3. Who really knows? on Cell Phone Radiation Chart · · Score: 1

    Seeing that there are as many reports that indicate there is no danger as there are that indicate that there are health risks, it would appear that nobody really knows. It's always better to play it safe and assume that placing a powerful transmitter next to you brain is unhealthy.

  4. Sax and Violins on Uncensored Media Considered Harmless · · Score: 1

    I suspect that violence itself is not on the rise, it's our exposure to it that is.

  5. SGI 1600 SW on Super Large, Super Hi-Res LCD Screens? · · Score: 1

    The SGI 1600 SW was/is a stunning display. SGI completely dropped the ball when it came to marketing and distributing the thing. I have one and a Number Nine Rev IV FP to drive it, but since #9 went out of business, support is impossible. SGI has a matrix of supported graphics cards and the flat panel goes for about $2100.00. It's a truly awesome display. I have never seen anything like it.

  6. Re:Miss the Christmas season? Gimme a break! on PS2 Demand Will Not Be Met · · Score: 1

    Heh, look at the next post.

  7. Sounds like a marketing ploy on PS2 Demand Will Not Be Met · · Score: 1

    Announcing that there are shortages but you can pre-order sounds like a marketing ploy to me.

  8. Re:Did I miss something? on An Interesting Boot Log On Alpha · · Score: 1

    A car that can do 200 can generally reach 70 mph a great deal faster than a car that can only do 70. I think the analogy holds for the 32 processor 256 GB RAM Linux box as well.

  9. Re:WTF?? on Open VPNs On Unix That Support Windows Clients? · · Score: 1

    Point taken.

  10. Re:WTF?? on Open VPNs On Unix That Support Windows Clients? · · Score: 1

    What, and get 1 solution? I hope your IT department doesn't research solutions that way. BTW, Google had 60,000 hits for "linux vpn".

  11. Re:WTF?? on Open VPNs On Unix That Support Windows Clients? · · Score: 3

    This is an search engine. The bonus is you get answers specific to your question without having to plow through 1,240 hits (AltaVista "linux vpn") of which some are probably porn. Let's see Ask Jeeves do that. Personally, I have an interest in this question as well as many other questions posted on /. The point is, it (should) never hurts to ask...

  12. I don't get it on Hands-On Review of PocketPC · · Score: 1

    M$ is not making a peice of hardware. They are just announcing an upgrade of CE. Big deal. Is this just an attempt to boost thier valuation? As for the Palm vs CE debate, you might as well go back to the Mac vs PC debate. It's a matter of preference and that's the long and short of it. Personally, I tried a Casiopedia and dumped my Palm III in a heartbeat and have never looked back. It's a remarkable device that does all the things a Palm does, it does it better in a Windows environment and hell of a great deal more. I am truly looking forward to running Linux on it... someday... http://www.ltc.com/linux-mips/
