  1. Re:Makes sense... not really on Busted for (L0pht)Crack Possession · · Score: 1

    You mean "Science"? :P

  2. Re:65,000? no -- 64 K on Tux Works for Microsoft?! · · Score: 1

    The largest number you can have is 65535, if you count 0 in that set :)

    1111111111111111 == 65565

  3. Re:FPS on X-Files FPS Episode · · Score: 1

    What's wrong with humiliation kills? The quad + gauntlet is the only good weapon in q3.

  4. Re:is there a way... on New Business Card Rescue CDs · · Score: 1

    If you cut the disc it would expose the core (they used to be aluminum, don't know what they are now) and it would deteriorate.

    First of all, 99.9999% effectiveness is not enough. That's 1000 wrongly blocked pages for every billion, and there are well over a billion pages.

    Secondly, you should be able to talk to your children about what they should and shouldn't do on the net, and give reasons for it. When my parents would tell me not to do something or go somewhere, without a reason for it, I felt that they couldn't trust me. That's a terrible feeling. Also, expecting a software device (which, because it is software, can be circumvented) to do your parenting for you is just wrong.

    Your children are not idiots, contrary to popular belief they DO have minds of their own. If you don't trust your children to use the net unsupervised, then you should talk to them about why you don't.

    If you can't trust your children, then they will no reason to trust you; but if you trust, and are honest with, your children then it will make your lives much easier.

    As for an image blocker that uses amount of skin shown as criteria for blocking, that just won't work. There are just too many instances in wich this would fail.

  6. Re:A great challenge on On Preservation of Digital Information · · Score: 1

    The main problem with your plan to "just broadcast non-stop internet" is that there just isn't enough electromagnetic bandwidth to spread around.
    How would you choose which section of which page of which site gets transmitted this second, and the next?
    I think you're trying to bottle the ocean, and it just isn't feasable.

    ...except that when you 'found' the girl, she was carrying a large sign that explicitly stated what would happen with her in the future, so that you could be prepared.

  8. Re:Congratulations on Victory in Holland · · Score: 1

    This just makes me mad... "Has the rapist ever been to a post office? It's obviously the USPS' fault that he rapes." How absurd can these peoples' claims be?

  9. Re:Laws. on Comments on the Digital Millennium Copyright Act · · Score: 1

    "Copy protection only hurts consumers, crackers will always be able to get around it, so there's not really much point." Try telling that to the lawyers getting rich from making these laws...and the politicians moreso by enacting them.

  10. Re:This looks cool on Pushing The Envelope · · Score: 1

    I realize that they collect their fuel with a large funnel, but the friction from the very atoms they are collecting and stray matter/energy will slow the craft faster than it can accelerate. You can't get energy for nothing and will still need an initial supply of hydrogen fuel and extra energy to counteract the affect of friction.
