  1. Re:Speed up the interface a bit! on Just a Phone? · · Score: 1

    true but just barely. Power windows have been in cars for over 20 years and they have had time to perfect the technology.

  2. Re:The Schools are the PROBLEM!! on Eat Right, Earn an iPod · · Score: 1

    Now I can agree with having a set of clothes for PE, but I never have agreed with school uniforms and I went to a school which required me to wear a predefined uniform each and every day. I did not feel as part of a 'team' and well to me it made the school look tacky. No matter what people in high school will still fight no matter what clothes are being worn.

  3. Bit-torrent New? on 'Sith' Already Found Online · · Score: 1

    "BitTorrent file-sharing network -- a new and increasingly popular technology that allows users to download large video files much more quickly than in the past."

    if I remember correctly bittorrent was created in 2000 or 2001 which to me is not that new.

    but do you want your computer to just shut off while you are in the middle of recompiling [insert program of choice]?

  5. Re:Probably most companies will make a profit on Star Wars Sickout · · Score: 1

    that all depends. If the company is a software company then yes Programmers are contributers, but if the programs work on apps for IT then no they do not contribute anything ,except for making things work. in fact IT is always considered as non contributers , and spend lots of money for the company (new systems, software licensing, etc). In fact most of the VPs at the company I work for think we have too many people working in IT, and if they saw our job they might understand a little something.

  6. Re:reboots? on The Future of Windows Graphic Technology · · Score: 1

    only takes me a few hours to get the machine up and running and the only reason it takes that long is because I still have to install a few little programs and configure the programs with the settings that are needed.

  7. Re:Well... on Morse Code Faster Than SMS · · Score: 1

    you forgot my favorite phone Voq Professional Phone.

  8. Re:reboots? on The Future of Windows Graphic Technology · · Score: 1

    for a clean install maybe, but who has time to reinstall windows from nothing when a Ghost image that was made a few months ago gets you threeforths there.

  9. Re:reboots? on The Future of Windows Graphic Technology · · Score: 1

    and that is why when I build a new system I will install all drivers (video drivers being last), update windows, update antivirus, install various software packages and then reboot, and then do everything else like setting the machine up on the network, etc. makes it so that I only need to reboot 3 times rather than a dozen or so.

  10. Re:I'm still tired and coffee'd up to my eyeballs! on Daylight Savings Change Proposed · · Score: 2, Insightful

    and thats probally due to the fact that people forgot to set there clocks forward and are trying to rush to work so they get there own time.

  11. Re:why would it be illegial? on CherryOS Mac Emulator Resurfaces · · Score: 1

    you forgot subsections b and c which allow for someone to sell the object code to you, without the source code If one wanted to they could sell your software for $1,00,000 without source and then offer to provide the code to anyone that has both purchased it and has asked.

    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

  12. Re:it's on usenet on New Dr. Who Episode Leaked · · Score: 1

    its FUCK. its not kcuf or 'effin, etc. If you want to use a word use it, but never hide the fact that you want to use a word that is as versatile as the word fuck.

  13. Re:Galactica 1980 on Battlestar Galactica Available for Download · · Score: 1

    I don't know about that. The last few seasons of sliders did not even try to follow the orginal ideas of teh show. The show started to go downhill as soon as they tell us that Quinn homeworld is not really his home and he was given to his parents by their doubles.

    you still write checks? I haven't written a check in 4 years. I just use billpay when I need to send a check, and use my checkcard to spend money and almost never take out real money.

    you must have never used one one of their Xerox Docutech stations which has lights to tell you when a tray is out of paper. Now it still will use paper as long as one of the other trays contain the same type of paper, which can be set within the system.
