  1. 2(anecdote)=data ? on MythTV 0.22 Released · · Score: 1

    Knoppmyth works perfectly for me - I have 3 tuners, a 1TB RAID array, Schedules Direct, and I also stream it to a frontend running on my Mac.

    There's a billion fora out there about Mythtv - basically, use supported hardware, and you are fine.

  2. As a Rhode Islander, I apologize on Massive Power Outages In Brazil Caused By Hackers · · Score: 1

    For electing such a statist douchebag. Our little armpit of New England has only 2 industries - welfare and prostitution, and our elected Gestapo is always looking for more.

  3. Re:Here's a hint on Tired of Flash? HTML5 Viewer For YouTube · · Score: 1

    Look at the "editor". 'nuff said.

  4. ikee virus? on Malware Can Download Child Porn To Your Computer · · Score: 1

    At least it wasn't 100000 Rick Rolls.

  5. Re:There are two sides in that coin... on Tech Allows Stable Integration of Wind In the Power Grid · · Score: -1, Troll

    How's that socialism working out for you?

  6. Re:I don't think we're ready for this jelly on Swarm of Giant Jellyfish Capsize 10-Ton Trawler · · Score: 1, Troll

    What could possibly eat these things ? THEY are the apex predator.

  7. This is how freedom dies on Landmark Health Insurance Bill Passes House · · Score: 1, Insightful

    To thunderous applause.

    I guess we're all in the crab bucket now.

  8. Paging Kaminsky on Paul Vixie On What DNS Is Not · · Score: 1

    I'll listen to Vixie once he justifies the Kaminsky bug.

  9. No Steph the Geek on Drupal Multimedia · · Score: 1

    Just say no - if Steph the Geek is into it, its almost by definition faddish and lame.

  10. ZOMG QoS LOL !1!! on Telecoms Announce "One Voice" Initiative To Promote LTE Wireless Broadband Stand · · Score: 0, Redundant

    So they've come up with a new, clever way to prioritize traffic, so that packety networks appear circuity?

    yawn

  11. 11 on Multi-Button OpenOfficeMouse At OOoCon 2009 · · Score: 1, Funny

    Do the dials go to 11 ?

  12. Re:Wait, what does Con Kolivas have to do with thi on Ryan Gordon Ends FatELF Universal Binary Effort · · Score: 1

    Do you work in government ?

  13. Re:He needs thicker skin on Ryan Gordon Ends FatELF Universal Binary Effort · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    "A day later, I've dumped MythTV and went back to WMC under Win7"

    Well, I guess you showed them.

    "I've lost a few features in the process..."

    Maybe not.

  14. Professor Myrabo at RPI on LaserMotive Finds Success In Space Elevator Competition · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Leik Myrabo at RPI has been working on this stuff for years. In his words, if we can hit an enemy ICBM travelling at many times the speed of sound with a laser, surely we can keep one focused on a friendly target with a known/desired trajectory. These projects will NOT become accidental Death Stars. Given the absurdly high percentage that fuel makes up of a vehicles launch weight, anything you can do to power the craft externally gives you huge savings.

  15. Buy it on On-Demand Video + CMS + Interactive Input For Museum? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Get a quote, and buy it. When it doesn't work, scream at the vendor. Leave the tinkertoys at home.

  16. meta-trolling on Bug In Most Linuxes Can Give Untrusted Users Root · · Score: 0, Troll

    Editors, why troll by quoting the vocal spokesperson of a different OS to comment on a Linux problem?

  17. no problems here on Some Early Adopters Stung By Ubuntu's Karmic Koala · · Score: 1

    Upgraded 9.04 to 9.10, no problem - sound, accelerated video, everything works, and it seems snappier, too.

  18. Re:V for Vendetta on Nothing To Fear But Fearlessness Itself? · · Score: 1

    The hard thing is to figure out something that will work.

    Why bother?

  19. Europhilia on EU Wants To Redefine "Closed" As "Nearly Open" · · Score: 0

    What? No Orwell, 1984, or doublethink tags?

  20. Upcoming Apple netbook on Mac OS X 10.6.2 Will Block Atom Processors · · Score: 1

    So basically Apple is saying "wait a few months, and we're releasing a netbook" ?

  21. paging Neal Stephenson on Transpacific Unity Fiber Optic Cable Leaves Japan · · Score: -1, Troll

    Didn't I read something about this in the Crytonomicon ?

  22. Re:Money for Something on Nothing To Fear But Fearlessness Itself? · · Score: 1

    What "top" is there to skim off, without the CAPITAList who put it there?

  23. Re:The "problem" on Nothing To Fear But Fearlessness Itself? · · Score: 1

    Translation: "I am unwilling to be perfectly good, but please don't condemn me for being partially evil !"

  24. V for Vendetta on Nothing To Fear But Fearlessness Itself? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    "And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, disease. There were a myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense."

  25. what have they done for us lately? on Microsoft's Lost Decade · · Score: 2, Insightful

    What was the last innovative thing MS did, where you got order-of-magnitude coolness for upgrading? 3.11 to Win95? Active Directory? Other than driver support, new themes, and building more applications into OS-level stuff (hello IIS) where are they?

    Where is a real volume manager? Where is virtualization? Where is workload balancing?
