  1. Looney Tunes on Linux Virus Alert · · Score: 2, Funny

    Who's your favorite Looney Tunes character?
    Bug's Bunny
    Daffy Duck
    or
    Elmer FUD

  2. 1000 Free Hours on The America Online Protocol Revealed · · Score: 1

    Finally 1000 free hours won't be used as a coaster any more

  3. .biz on No One Wants The Not-Coms · · Score: 1

    .biz just sounds un-professional. It's the suffix for an online lemonade stand at the online garage sale.

  4. stand beside the president on A Tale of Two Media:Tragedy and Images · · Score: 1

    We need to stand behind our president whether he reads from a prompter or not. Not only is he a person of the utmost authority in the US, but a symbol of our freedom. We need to stick beside him and not speak harshly of him, even if you didn't vote for him. He's our president and our leader.

  5. 2nd class citizens? on Clay Shirky Defends P2P · · Score: 1

    If you have an IP address and bandwidth, you're already a citizen. Isn't P2P just trying to make the internet into another internet?

  6. signal range... on Ethernet Sets To Bridge The Last Mile · · Score: 1

    The CAT5 I work with has a range of only a couple 100 feet. I wonder how they're going to get around this? They would have to use fiber down the lines...

  7. PERL... on PDA Giant Sharp Promises Linux-Running PDAs · · Score: 1

    A PERL interpretor would be required if it uses PERL. C/C++ is about the only way to go. We just need to get a nice devel kit for Linux!

  8. internet(internet).... on New Peer-to-Peer Designs · · Score: 1

    The more and more I read about P2P, the more it starts to sound like an internet within the internet. Can anyone post a model of just how we can ping someone across the net? I'm sure P2P is going to be solved with some form of decentralized hierarchy. The best machine get's the highest energy level. Like valence electrons or something. I fast machine(bandwidth first) would be higher on the heirarchy. Similar to an ISP. Your ISP has an ISP. His ISP has an ISP.... Instead of focusing on a centralized system of an individuals machine, we need to look at it like a bunch of protons/neutrons (fast machines) with a whole bunch of electrons(56k) floating around. or maybe go subatomic and work from the inside out. In reverse...

  9. Re:propogate up the hierarchy on New Peer-to-Peer Designs · · Score: 1

    Searches would take forever....

  10. Re:This is a nice idea, but.... on New Peer-to-Peer Designs · · Score: 1

    I like that idea, but it's still pseudo-centralized.

  11. P2P vulnerability... on New Peer-to-Peer Designs · · Score: 1

    P2P makes things like (virii, pseudo-DOS attacks, etc.) so much worse right? One lone person could potential flood the whole network with just query searches. We wouldn't be much different then a network of Borgs. Melicious (sp?) acts, even stupid errors could bring so many problems to so me unwitting people.

  12. Slashdot covering Kent State... on Slashback: Antennae, Play, Book Larnin' · · Score: 1

    The article said that Slashdot emphasized on them getting confiscated in violation of free speech. Slashdot is a starting to become a pulling machine and people are listening. Slash has got some pull.

  13. Re:Pretty freaking cool. on NEAR to Fly Once More · · Score: 1

    There's prob not enough gravity for traction

  14. Linus isn't our savior... on The Silent Kernel Platform War? · · Score: 1

    I've noticed that we are relying to heavily on Linus to do what WE want him to do. Not necessarily doing it ourselves. I'd get pissed if I were him. It's hard enough for me to do something that I'm not passionate about (homework), let alone porting to something I don't use...

  15. Conversion of energy... on Are Nitrogen Powered Cars The Future? · · Score: 1

    And just what energy are we going to use to make liquid N. I would think that the energy required to produce liquid N would really not really payoff. It would take energy, probably from an electrical plant, to fuel the process...

  16. Re:JESUS will butcher LINUX users (+5, Truth) on Fred Moody Says Linux Worst Operating System Ever · · Score: 1

    Jesus just wrote me. He parted the firment. He created DOS and Unix. He said woe unto you DOS believers, for your planning and misguided ways are evil. 26 drive letters have no place in the perfection of heaven. Behold, Unix will have a place in heaven, and the source will be open. It shall be called Linux, it shall be good.

  17. Distros... on Fred Moody Says Linux Worst Operating System Ever · · Score: 1

    I think someone needs to post his e-mail address so we can each individually explain to him that a distro is not a seperate OS; just a bundle of packages. I run Slack by the way. 0 vulnerablilities I think it said for 2000? This guy has learned some MS tactics while he was there. The data was not controlled in where the data is not all the same. Plus, his mother e-mailed me and said that he's still living at home and wets the bed (quiet frequently I might ad).

  18. Re:What my APCS teacher did on Ideas for High School Computer Projects? · · Score: 1

    Plus, if the students liked what was planned, they would probably work on it outside of class. CGI in PERL was my first hack at programming, and I think students would like this as well.
