  1. I like the NEW desktop metaphor. on Sun to GPL Project Looking Glass · · Score: 4, Insightful
    This looks JUST like the piles of junk I have on every available horizontal surface!

    Much easier to use than the unrealistic "desktops" of yopre, wher I can only make a huge mess of things on two axes!

  2. Re:Read the further description... on Do PS2-to-USB Keyboard Adapters Work? · · Score: 1

    RadioShack has a real cheapie, that works great. It's how I run a Sparc and a G4 on my console switchbox.

    There is no "Al-Qaeda".

    Who told you there was? Where did they get their information? Who's interest was providing this information serving?

    You read something, and think you know something.

    Now every two-bit bomb-thrower rides to the front page on claims of a connection to this fictional organization that is not an organization.

    Otherwise, you cannot under-promise and over-deliver... ;-)

  6. Al Fresco? on Computing Al Fresco? · · Score: 4, Funny
    We always took that to be a euphamism for "Naked".

    You want to do that? Keep it indoors, please!

  7. Re:like a blackbox... on CMU's Snooping Robot Headed for Iraq · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Not dumb enough. Robot will question the unreasonable and inhumane.

  8. Accept my appologies on behalf of Central Services on Monsanto Wins Case Over Patented Canola · · Score: 3, Funny

    Well, we are so VERY sorry, Mrs. Buttle.

    Fake security - real control. This is to keep people IN - not out.

    Suits me. Anything to force Americans to stay the hell in their own country...
    Unfortunately, the ones you want kept out will be free to travel. The ones you might want - certain musicians, authors scholars and poets - will be restricted.

    Thanks, Orth'.

    I am a bit terse, and hoped that to those paying attention, my two lines would convey what you so clearly and explicitly delineate.

    Anyway - you have the debatable distinction of "friend" status.

    If we hadn't lost that thousand years of Civilization, just think of where Moore's law would have taken processor speeds by now!

  15. Re:In other news... on Swedish Carbon-Fiber Stealth Ship Runs NT · · Score: 1

    This will surely bolster Sweden's stealth political influence in world affairs.

  16. Re:For starters you could model your network on Kinder, Gentler Security Scans? · · Score: 1
    Yeah, I do agree with you here. Threat modelling for a network is a great idea all-around.

    Much of this is a paper/whiteboard exercise. You still have to test, at some time.

  17. Re:For starters you could model your network on Kinder, Gentler Security Scans? · · Score: 1

    You gotta admit, Disney took that morbid and dismal little "Hunchback of Notre Dame" and polished it into a first-class piece of Blockbuster Entertainment!

    None of that weird Victor Hugo crap about murders and jealousy, abouse of station and love vs. beauty. What kind of crack do the French smoke? I want to see things explode, and barring that, I want a happy ending.

    If you watch this kind of crap and enjoy it, you DESERVE restictive digital rights "management" schemes.
