  1. Re:Did I miss the news? on So Who's Running Apple Now? · · Score: 1
  2. Re:Finally... on Researchers One Step Closer To Creating Life · · Score: 1

    "Half man, half bear, half pig..." "Dude, that's impossible!"

  3. Re:Rules? on Flying Car Ready To Take Off · · Score: 1

    How many homes will catch one of these falling from the sky before they're banned in metro's?

  4. Re:And how much cpu power is needed at that speed? on USB 3.0 Is Ten Times Faster; Get It In 2010 · · Score: 1

    I agree this is most disturbing - loosing firewire. What can the community do to save it, propagate firewire, compel manu's to include the hard port on devices?

  5. Re:In other news on "Smash Your Hard Drive" To Fight Identity Theft · · Score: 1

    Not sure i'd want to breathe in a room where someone was "wiping" hdd with a magic chef - sheesh!

  6. Re:upgrading purchased music on Apple Intros 17" Unibody MBP, DRM-Free iTunes · · Score: 1

    You'll need the new version of iTunes also - typically pushed by Apple updater evening of the release announcement...

  7. Re:Gee, thanks for the notice on Leap Second To Be Added Dec 31, 2008 · · Score: 1

    I wonder if the exceptions agencies allow on clock synchronization afford an opportunity for nefarious intrusion into the system? "This doesn't look right, but we did just add a leap second.."

  8. Re:Corbis? on Bill Gates Founds New "Think Tank" Company · · Score: 1

    Third "thing" - not company.

  9. Re:Looks Legit on Graduate Student Defends Right To Own Chicago2016.com · · Score: 1

    More than legit - a public service. Imagine sponsoring debate, in the USA? This is more about the Sandusky folks wanting to stifle dissent before it starts roaring. Let Sandusky take Chicago-2016.com, Chicagotwentysixteen.com, Chicago2016.info, or whatever he can find that is available.

  10. Re:I don't know if I fully agree with that on Fire Your IT Boss · · Score: 1

    Point was more to RIF - the most expendable member of the IT team is the manager. If the manager relies on staff for information, and you trim the staff, how can the manager p/u the slack? In survival mode you really only need doers. Keep the thing alive and execute on the best plan already in the stack.

  11. Re:Books on Computer Textbooks For High Schoolers? · · Score: 1

    The unlimited safari bookshelf is an indispensable IT reference. In this case one key would be a great source of curricula for the instructor.

  12. 2006? on ISS Dodges Space Junk For First Time In Five Years · · Score: 1

    Russia launched this hunk two years ago and already self-destructed it? And that's excusable somehow? Does the DoD do the same? Who's going to clean that shit up? First time one of Sir Richard's space deckers looses passengers and crew - what's he going to do - sue somebody?
