  1. Re:A Move in the Right Direction on Microsoft Launches Visual Studio Express, VS 2005 Beta · · Score: 1

    XCode comes with all new macs! now, it's not the best IDE, allot of mac developers favor Codewarrior, but, it's almost there.

  2. changing syntax sounds like ... on Extensible Programming for the 21st Century · · Score: 1
  3. what about other protocols? on Coming Soon to a Wireless Hotspot Near You: Ads · · Score: 1, Interesting

    last I tried, wifi supported other protocols like ftp, ssh, etc. are they going to block those and only allow http?

    obviously they're injecting the adds into the http stream.

    I'll just ssh to work and tunnel to my proxy server...

  4. Re:trivial? on NetBSD Trademark Application Completed · · Score: 0

    actually, the BSD license cares very much about copyrights. one of the main tenets is that you MUST include the original copyright in any code you distribute, whether it's free for your customers or costs $40,000.

  5. GMail allows attachments on Still More Google IPO Speculation · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I was checking out the pages at gmail.com ( again... ) and I found that on this page: http://gmail.google.com/gmail/help/learn_more.html they show a message thread where one of the mails has a PDF icon. I can only assume that that is an attachment!

    I wonder if their email search searches through the PDFs, that'd be cool.

  6. Re:This is far from helping the masses move to Lin on XPde 0.5 - A Linux Desktop for Windows Users · · Score: 1


    While I agree with most of what you say, you obviously didn't read their FAQ. it clearly states that it's not really about users "choosing" to switch to XPde, it's more about sysadmins choosing for their users. http://www.xpde.com/faq.php

  7. Maybe not april fools... on Google's Gmail To Offer 1GB E-mail Storage? · · Score: 1

    Check out http://gmail.google.com/

    there's no date there, and here on the west coast, it's not the first yet... just some food for thought. ( the help like has some pretty detailed info, while the 1GB seems extreme, the rest is pretty reasonable/ sounds like google )

    no, step 5 should be

    Step 5: Profit!

  9. gov / telco comprimise. on Cities Building Own Fiber Networks · · Score: 1

    Why not make an FCC ( s/FCC/whatevergoverningbodyyouchoose/g ) rule that states that when the government ( city/county/state/fed ) trenches to place fiber, they're required to give the locally competing telcos a 15 day advance notice, and let them lay pipe with them. This would give the telcos a better chance at upgrading their networks, and allow them to get to all the same places that the gov is going ( without paying for the trenching ).

  10. what I want to know is ... on Y Window System Project Started · · Score: 4, Funny

    If they'll replace the default cursor with a Y instead of an X.

  11. Re:Wireless Weapons??? on Slashback: Pliancy, Antennae, Gobe · · Score: 1

    it already exists, it's called ssh or ipsec.
