  1. Re:The best way to shop for books... on Bezos Responds to Tim O'Reilly's Open Letter · · Score: 1

    No, don't browse the book at Amazon. They make money off of advertisements, and they can charge higher if they have more pageviews (even if the person doesn't buy a book).

  2. Re:changes... on Tux on the Upper West Side · · Score: 1

    I just gotta say -- I loved high school. No joke! (Just letting you know, there are people that *did* like high school. I had a ball.)

  3. Re:Hooray! Another overly hyped undeveloped resear on Billions of Transistors on a Single Chip · · Score: 1

    Except this is IBM, the company that drops millions on R&D, and they do *tons* of it. There's infinitely more realism in this article than the than "noise in the fabric of space-time" one.

  4. Except on Design a Web Page in Under 5k · · Score: 1

    Except, Rob, you can't use SSI. sorry! you'd be disqualified.

  5. Re:first? on 5GB portable MP3 Player · · Score: 1
  6. Re:Interesting? How? on Linux 2.3.48 Released · · Score: 1
    Of course some people won't like everything posted. That's the purpose of filtering out stories. A lot of Slashdotters strongly dislike Katz. Therefore they just filter his stories out.

    That's why he just suggested that they be filterable-- Put them in a "Kernel Updates" section instead of the generic "Linux" section. There are some things you can't control, this isn't one of them.

  7. Re:smart move on Dave 'Zoid' Kirsch Leaving id Software · · Score: 1

    Damn, those kids have money! Check out their Parking Lot... A Ferrari, a Corvette (I think), and an Acura NSX. *drool*.

  8. Re:maybe... on SlashNET Forum With Jamie Zawinski · · Score: 1

    Productive member of Slashdot? I've checked out your user info. I think not.

  9. Re:bad link on SlashNET Forum With Jamie Zawinski · · Score: 1

    My bad. One too many w's in the URL. Someone moderate this troll up as informative! (You know he'll despise it).

  10. jwz? on SlashNET Forum With Jamie Zawinski · · Score: 1

    The guy who doesn't like ALT= tags on his website? Hmmm..

  11. Re:Feb 19th? A little late, aren't we? on SlashNET Forum With Jamie Zawinski · · Score: 1

    Like the 26th.

  12. Re:WorkPad details? on Inexpensive Linux/BSD Handhelds · · Score: 5
    Here's an image over at IBM.

    A product overview...

    More to come if I can find it..

  13. Re:Cool. on Inexpensive Linux/BSD Handhelds · · Score: 1

    How about the itsy?

  14. Well... on Men Playing as Women · · Score: 1
    In Quake2, I played as a female character at times, because the female characters were generally quicker and more agile than their male counterparts.

    For me, it wasn't really something psychological...

  15. Haven't... on Netscape Communicator 4.72 Released · · Score: 1

    Haven't the last few releases of Communicator been just throwing more crap into the package? Little has been done since Navigator 4.08 has been released...

  16. 24% done? on Distributed.net Suspends OGR project · · Score: 2

    By "So far, we have completed approximately 24% of the total stubs, mostly smaller ones." doesn't that mean that they're not 24% done in terms of time? I think the statement "They were 24% done already and have to start over again now." is a little misleading...

  17. Re:Mirror anyone? on MacOS X DP3 · · Score: 3
    Not a mirror, but more screenshots of DP3.

    Makes me want a Mac. *drool*.

  18. Re:DeCSS code on a T-shirt on Keep It Legal To Embarrass Big Companies · · Score: 1

    Dude, it's been done. Check out copyleft.

  19. Re:[OT] Effuga's insane Slashdot reading on Yahoo Putting Movies Online · · Score: 0

    Ha. Probably less than me! I'm addicted to slashdot & pepsi.

  20. Re:Screw Jolt, it's for wussies. on The Ultimate Geek Food · · Score: 1
  21. Re:BSOD on Free-PC Bites the Dust · · Score: 1

    It was linked to from hardOCP, they didn't give any story.

  22. Re:Stop thinking in the windows world! on New And Improved LCDs · · Score: 1

    I think what the parent comment was saying was clarity & high-resolution should be independant from amount of real-estate. Ideally, all monitors would be infinite resolution, and real estate would be fully adjustable (i.e. not tiers, just a lil' bar you could move left to right to make everything smaller, until you're comfortable.)

  23. Re:Oh sure, blame all the problems of the universe on Dark Matter WIMP Detection Claimed · · Score: 1

    Can't you let a humorous (err. humourous for you british english speakers) post be?

  24. African American Matter, dammit! on Dark Matter WIMP Detection Claimed · · Score: 1

    n|t.

  25. Re:What the heck is a Bluetooth? on Bluetooth for Linux Released · · Score: 1

    How is the parent post off-topic?
