  1. Re:Got ED? on Light Could Make Paralyzed Limbs Move · · Score: 1

    Seconded. It's also really annoying when it's been shaved - and the leftover hairs grind on your nose. Though not being a problem for penetration - then again - I don't shave, so maybe that saved me some pain. Sorry for the OT post.

    Low range 5GHz Wi-Fi mesh networking with device switching capability may assist in multiplexing more efficiently. Also, for what is probably gonna be a free service (courtesy of your local geeks), 800Kbps is plenty - heck, you can probably stream video.

  5. Re:what do you do.. on AMD Offers Women Geek Dating Advice · · Score: 1

    How about tweaking those tips for a 17 y.o.? Right now, girls segregate in 2 general groups - them being too "mature" for me (think anyone younger than me), and me being too young for them (think anyone older than me). WTF am I supposed to do? Date my cousin (she's 26 BTW)? Gave it a try, but she's in love with a taxi driver in Vegas, so she moved and married there, besides she was never really comfortable with it. Some of you are gonna judge me, I bet - but understand this - she was the only thing even resembling a romance I've had in my life. Yes, it's sad, but you don't get to pick who you love (IMHO).

    Seconded, we're people too! Most geeks I know (myself especially) can talk about almost anything, no matter how obscure, or mindnumbingly popular. The girl just has to act nice and considerate (the bar isn't that high, believe me). I'm pretty sure anyone of us wold be happy to listen (it's not that geeks are bad listeners, it's just that most of us need a stronger cue to change modes). And above all (at least for me) is that being human means liking hugs. I'm heterosexual myself, but - guy or gall - just walking up to me and giving a nice big hug means a lot (when taking in consideration that almost nobody does it. I think that many on this site will agree with me.

    Simple - port Linux to Symbian (it's a microkernel - like Xen's predecessor).

    Who's the idiot using interpreters everywhere? If there ever was a place and time for native code, it's in triggers. Or at least use a descent VM, not some handy-dandy cludgetastic POS.

    What you are saying is, linux needs a descent interdistro management interface? You don't say.

    And here my psychotherapist insists I don't need Xanax. Well, technically, I don't need to sleep in a comfortable bed, either, but it's sure as hell more palatable.

    Linux is a multi user system. Netboot a minimal X11 server, and log in to a central server. Better yet, Netboot+NFS root.

  19. Re:Just one of the necessary features on Mozilla Unleashes JaegerMonkey Enabled Firefox 4 · · Score: 1

    Heap partitioning can help combat fragmentation and GC overhead (not to mention many modern GCs handle fragmentation better than the underlying OS, which is all you have with traditional memory management). Data persistence bugs are to be fixed, not worked around, and some better memory profiling tools would be a great help.

    Get a descent GC, people! There is no such thing as a memory leak in JS. If there is, the GC isn't good enough.

    This scheme is both underpowered, and vastly under capitalized. Sprint, Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile can't adequately cover the geography, and US taxpayers, via government subsidies spent billions and billions and billions.
