  1. Re:I sure wouldn't on Fixing Bugs, But Bypassing the Source Code · · Score: 2, Insightful

    That would obviously bring SkyNet into existence!

  2. And on the flipside on Los Angeles Goes Google Apps With Microsoft Cash · · Score: 1

    LA gov will have a Google search-able city data bank.

  3. Re:DANGER! DO NOT Install 9.10 with ext4! (if at a on Ubuntu 9.10 Officially Released · · Score: 1

    That is worrying, I'm very surprised they use ext4 as the default in this case! However calm down, screaming and shouting just attracts zombies.

  4. Re:How to get Ubuntu 9? on Ubuntu 9.10 Officially Released · · Score: 1

    If you want to upgrade to the ext4 file system, or encrypting your /home with eCrypt, then a reinstall is well worth it. Otherwise it will take some extra well-researched steps to use those features.

    I'm on 8.10, but will wait about 2 months before moving to Karmic, a clean install :)

  5. In Soviet Russia on Russia Develops Spaceship With Nuclear Engine · · Score: 1

    Rocket Rides You!

  6. Re:Based on the picture on Discovery of "Cancer-Proof" Rodent Cells · · Score: 2, Funny

    You post on /. AND you don't want to resemble Yoda when you grow up? I call posting under false pretense! ;)

  7. Re:shucks on Yahoo Offered Lap Dances At Hack Event · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Ha! Won't catch me there. Think I'll stick to the Google camp, where the oiled-up girls play in blow-up pools with slides. Did I mention they *love* body finger-painting?

  8. Re:The Fucking Crybabies on Yahoo Offered Lap Dances At Hack Event · · Score: 1

    Very, very good point. On a related note: They could've used the stripper money to hire chip 'n dales for the girls instead.

  9. Re:READ THE FUCKING ARTICLE on Light Helps Injured Mice Walk Again · · Score: 1

    I read the article, it's very well written, and what an *amazing* breakthrough! It's interesting how many major scientific breakthroughs were also very clever plot devices in science fiction in the past few decades.

  10. Re:Of All the Meddling on Light Helps Injured Mice Walk Again · · Score: 1

    The farmer won't dare cut off the tails of mice with frikkin lasers attached to their heads -- especially ill-tempered manic depressive mice!

  11. Re:wow! on What Desktop Search Engine For a Shared Volume? · · Score: 1

    Sorry for the late reply, was busy downloading the internet. anyway a good cheap solution would be to make the drive publicly shared, expose it to the web and search it through google using something like "company user password list site:YOUR_PUBLIC_IP". Post your results here so we can all test your indexing speed :)

  12. It doesn't crash on Microsoft May Be Inflating SharePoint Stats · · Score: 1

    Because we don't *use* the sharepoint on our intranet. Not that us Devs didn't try, it's just too darn unintuitive and difficult! You just want to smack it for misbehaving so often, like a red-haired step-child!

  13. Doesn't anybody realize.... on Scientists Use Quake 2 To Study the Brains of Mice · · Score: 1

    .. that this is how Skynet is born?

  14. Re:OVERWHELMING SCANNERS!! on Fake Antivirus Overwhelming Scanners · · Score: 1

    What a clever way to earn some $$$ AND get hitched!

  15. Re:Pay For Full Version on Fake Antivirus Overwhelming Scanners · · Score: 1

    Use the NoScript Add-on, or any other that uses white-lists for running scripts. Best security ever, just deny deny deny!

  16. Re:AV2009 To The Rescue on Fake Antivirus Overwhelming Scanners · · Score: 1

    *Nods in agreement* - And I feel safe knowing it's monitoring my keystrokes, making sure they're mine and not anyone else. I don't care what it does, because it's magic and I always believe in magic.

  17. Interesting Article on Bridging the Gap Between User-Generated Content and Interesting Content · · Score: 1

    But it's not worth getting into any sort of fight about which is better.

  18. Two wrongs Dont make a right on Microsoft Security Essentials Released; Rivals Mock It · · Score: 1

    It is Microsoft's *responsibility* to secure *their* OS. They should've picked up the AV slack years ago, and they never did - So others decided to pick it up for them (and make a buck at the same time).

    No one is right here, everyone is in the wrong because no one wants to admit that the OS is as insecure as a convict's ***

  19. Re:Symantec is a bunch of crap on Microsoft Security Essentials Released; Rivals Mock It · · Score: 1

    And system crashes every single time, when you open a certain MS (ahem VSS) window? WTF? There's some background thread-killing-wars going on there!

  20. Re:Cool, but... on Rome, Built In a Day · · Score: 1

    "rofl mao" - no seriously, MS keeps all the good apps for themselves!

  21. Re:As far as I can tell... on Rome, Built In a Day · · Score: 1

    Funnily enough, at the bottom of the project page: Google is one of the supporters

  22. Re:Speaking as a chemist on Most Detailed Photos of an Atom Yet · · Score: 1

    It's confirming the theory, I agree that is amazing!

  23. Re:let's wait and see on Australian ISPs Asked To Cut Off Malware-Infected PCs · · Score: 2, Insightful

    One way is using Honeypots: set it up to appeal to that specific ISP's traffic, logs attack attempts, and resolves those back to ISP user accounts.

  24. Re:It's about damn time. on Alan Turing Gets an Apology From Prime Minister Brown · · Score: 1

    You said it much better than I could!

  25. Re:It's about damn time. on Alan Turing Gets an Apology From Prime Minister Brown · · Score: 1

    Essentially they make an example from someone, thereby absolving themselves of guilt. How... human.
