  1. Re:tabbed browsing on Mozilla 0.9.9 Released · · Score: 1

    Try Opera then. Its not exactly tabbed, its a mdi interface, but it still is good when you fear 800 windows popping up.

  2. Re:there's always a deal to be found... on Low-end Laptops? · · Score: 5, Funny

    You might also need to run faster than the salespeople too... 'Hi, it seems you're stealing this laptop right now. Would you like a 3-year warrantee on it? It will protect it from all normal wear and tear...'

  3. An easy way to do it in python on 16th IOCCC Winners Announced · · Score: 1

    You can make python have curly brackets for sections of code, just comment them out:

    if x==z: # {
    print y
    x+=z
    # }

    (I can't get it to indent properly, everytime I hit tab IE goes to another part of the form)

  4. Re:smart boards - somtimes good, sometimes bad on "Smart Board" To Replace White Boards? · · Score: 1

    Actualy, on the one I recently played with, you can choose 3 degrees of calibrations: 9 points, 20 points, and 80 points. The more points the more accuracy.

  5. Ironic timing on "Smart Board" To Replace White Boards? · · Score: 1

    Today in compsci we just set up the one that had been sitting in the back of the room for over a year taking up space. Everyone loved to pick up a marker and write on the 'screen' with their finger. Also, it was good for the ap students learning binary search trees; the teacher put up a blank binary tree and they filled in each node/leaf.

  6. Title? on Toonami Producer on Editing Process · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    That should be 'toonami' not 'tonami'!

  11. I'll consider it... on KT-Tech Sound Compression - Music at 32 Kbit/s · · Score: 1

    I'll consider downloading it if they have it as a winamp input plugin. I'm not gonna download/install the player just to hear a demo, then uninstall it afterwards.

  12. To Intel from TI: on TI Lands OMAP in a Pocket PC. · · Score: 1

    Don't mess with Texas (Instruments)!

  13. Re:Congrats and "Buffy the Musical" was GREAT on Kathleen Fent Read This Story · · Score: 1

    Your comment made me instantly think of this:

    ...worst episode ever...

  14. Re:Are you serious? on Kathleen Fent Read This Story · · Score: 1

    Well, the poll alone has over two million votes.

  15. And you'd think... on Project Copycat Clones A Cat · · Score: 1

    You'd think they'd name it carbon copy, since it is a carbon based life form...

  16. I downloaded the stripped down version of windows on States Demand Windows Source Code · · Score: 1

    ...and all I got was this crappy source code!

    (Parody of the 'I went to location and all I got was this crappy t-shirt' t-shirt.)

  21. Popcorn chicken? on Geek Food: A Cookbook for the Technologically Inclined · · Score: 1

    Isn't that when theres chicken nuggets the size of popcorn(as in the recent kfc commercials)? According to the cookbook, it involves stuffing a chicken with popcorn...
    Fill the cavity with stuffing and popcorn.
    Place in baking pan in oven.
    Listen for popping sounds; when the chicken's ass blows out the oven door and across the room, the chicken is done.


    Taken from page 5 of the cookbook(left column of the page).

    This is where I learned to compile the kernel for the first time. I compiled it only a few days after getting Red Hat 7.1. Its a good site and for people who want step by step instructions on compiling the kernel this is the howto they need.
