  1. Re:VOIP traffic characteristics on FCC Fines Company for Blocking Access to VoIP · · Score: 1

    Depends on the speed of your connection, normally it'd probably help. But if you've got enough bandwidth it doesn't make a difference.

  2. Thanks /. ! on Irish 'Running Man' WarWalking Competition · · Score: 2, Funny

    I was planning on installing OpenWRT on my linksys today. But from the looks of it, the site's been slashdotted. Thanks for giving me some more free time today!

  3. Re:Ok thats nice for all "comcast pro" people. on Comcast Raises Bandwidth in Shot at DSL · · Score: 2, Funny

    You've obviously never made a completely ridiculous decree before.

  4. Re:Good Days Already Gone on BitTorrent's Creator Bram Cohen Interviewed · · Score: 1

    Yeah, my school EIU has blocked all access to BitTorrent as well, kind of makes it a pain to get any new Mandrake releases.

  5. Re:Inside info on Meet Linux Kernel 2.6.2, 'Feisty Dunnart' · · Score: 1

    Heathen Chemistry is actually an Oasis album... For those curious.

  6. Re:Win NT on The Guy Responsible For Ctrl-Alt-Del · · Score: 2, Informative

    By default it isn't enabled only if you aren't logging on to a windows domain controller (just the local computer). If your in a corporate setting normally you are and having to press Ctrl-Alt-Del remains in full effect...

  7. Re:I have a few questions: on U.S. Court Blocks Anti-Telemarketing List · · Score: 1

    The court that made this recent ruling is a Federal Court, which means it would apply nationwide.

  8. Re:How wrong, reminds me of Star Wars on Congress to Make PATRIOT Act Permanent · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I defiantly think we need to enact a law to remove the president from office after a war is over if they feel the need to declare one. I think it gives 'em more of a power trip then ever.

  9. Re:Rama series is THE best on Clarke's Rendezvous with Rama going Hollywood? · · Score: 1

    No your not the only person. I **HEAVILY** enjoyed the entire series and have read it around 5 times so far. I'd definatly have to agree with you in the fact that it's a great story with amazing characters, and the ending gets me every time. Always the first series of books I recommend to people.

  10. Re:Multistandard? on Pioneer DVR-A05 Review · · Score: 3, Interesting

    That drives actually already in stock at the Circuit City. For what it's worth. The model number is Sony DRU500A and it retail for $349

  11. Re:Smart Move for Ebay, bad for paypal people. on Ebay buys PayPal · · Score: 1

    I wonder how many people actually thought you were serious and clicked on the link? :-)

  12. Re:It's only on blank AUDIO media on Canada to Raise Tariffs on Recordable Media · · Score: 1

    There are some home audio CD recorders that will only support the Music CDRs. But other than that and the tax there is no difference.

  13. Re:Yikes, MS Hardware on Want To Playtest An Xbox? · · Score: 1

    Normally MS hardware is pretty high quality, its there software that worries me.

  14. Re:question skipped? on Ian Murdock Answers · · Score: 1

    Umm. That was the first question he answered.

  15. Re:How do you pronounce it? on Microsoft Releases C# Language Reference · · Score: 1

    C Sharp.

  16. Re:Why would you fake an AMD? on Tampered Athlons Hit Oz · · Score: 2

    Because people don't look for fake $1 bills as often as they do fake $20s

  17. Re:What about Bluesnews? on Quake 1 GPL'ed · · Score: 1

    That's the game source, not the actual exe source, that stuff just allows you to modify the game itself (the "play" of the game), not the actual program.

  18. Re:Xerox Ethernet? on CUPS 1.0 Enters The World · · Score: 1

    I believe he invented ethernet while working at Xerox. Then went on to found 3com.

  19. Re:All I want... on How to Build a Clear Computer Case · · Score: 1

    Yep, they were the Aptiva Sxx models. A little slower than an adverage computer of the same speed but it worked...

  20. Re:ratings and such on Feature: Ticket Booth Tyranny (Part One) · · Score: 1

    R: No one under 17 admitted without a parent or legal guardian NC-17: No one under 17 admitted.

  21. Re:New theater policies? on Feature: Ticket Booth Tyranny (Part One) · · Score: 1

    I believe it's because our 'great' president Clinton "asked" theaters to start carding people. No law, just because he asked... Too much power...

  22. Re:URL on More Macs on the auction block · · Score: 1

    Since http://www.wired.com/news/technology/story/20410.h tml goes to the same place, I think the /slashdot/ is just to track where the hits are from.

  23. Re:The world's first Trillionaire? on Pirates of Silicon Valley · · Score: 1

    $90 billion as of Forbes this morning (see the msnbc article). I think its estimated in 2005 he will become a trillionaire.

  24. Bigger Shirts on Slashdot T-Shirt Design Contest · · Score: 1

    Do you think Copyleft could make bigger shirts (XXXL) for the "larger" nerd crowd?

  25. Re:Hooray! on Qwest bids $55 billion for US West, Frontier · · Score: 1

    Wildly overpriced at $50 a month?!? Here under Ameritech (50 miles NW of Chicago) I pay just about $105 a month (line and ISP) for 115Kbps ISDN I can't even dream about getting 256Kpbs DSL until around the first of NEXT YEAR.
