    ah, but the sun spots are the size of jupiter!

  2. Re:Hypocrites. on Symantec Says No To Pro-Gun Sites · · Score: 1

    not to mention a -1 Ignorant for grammar mistakes ;)

  3. Re:Spot on. on Branding Mozilla: Towards Mozilla 2.0 · · Score: 1

    ...other than the fact that they are talking about http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com, which uses activex controls to search for versions and update your windows system. but you know, that's really a minor point.

  4. hmm on Reviving A Dead Hard Drive The Hard Way · · Score: 1

    if anyone has an idea about a drive that just died on me (Maxtor 4G120J6) i would be much appreciative. Drive spins up, but not recognised by bios. it was working fine, but i came home one day and BAM not recognised. tried in a diff computer, same results. drive alone as master doesnt recognise, and slave w/ my normal config doesnt work. any ideas? i've already filled out the advance RMA form, but i'd sure like to get the data back...

  5. Re:Glass houses on Techs Discover End Users Aren't So Bright · · Score: 1

    tech support agents are internally monitored. if they do not go thru specific, predefined steps, they can quickly rack up a failed monitoring. the customer saying "this step is unnecessary" doesn't convince the tech, because you'd be amazed at how often the problem is exactly what the customer states is not the problem, or the problem is fixed by one of the "unnecessary" steps. just my experiences here...

  6. Re:shadio rack on New Microsoft Mouse Scrolls Both Ways · · Score: 1

    would that happen to be the kensiko dual scroll? i've got one of those in my closet... black, ps2, no clicks when you scroll?

  7. again with the late articles on Half-Life 2 Delayed? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Avidgamer had this yesterday...

    better writeup, too. *shrug*

  8. Re:Microsoft on Hydrogenaudio AAC Listening Test Results · · Score: 1, Interesting

    ...because it was an AAC test, not a general compressed audio test.

  9. Re:SWG:Trash it.... on Pile On Star Wars Galaxies? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Is it just me, or from watching the movies did it seem like a rocket launcher just wouldn't fit?

    not to pick nits or anything, but in episode two right at the beginning a rocket launcher is used to destroy a ship...

  10. Re:99 Luftballons on Robot Balloon Escapes In Britain · · Score: 1

    ...the original was an anti-war song...

    had to learn the first two verses of 99 luftballoons in german class a couple years ago

    but i do like the goldfinger version :)

  11. Re:anybody else noticed ... on GPL-Licensed QCAD Ported to Mac OS X · · Score: 1

    uh... you're incorrect. that looks like plain jane vanilla OS X. see all the horizontal pinstripes?

  12. Re:Dear Slashdot, I am confused. on Microsoft Considers $10 Billion Dividend · · Score: 1

    when you think that the government is supposedly "by the people, for the people..."

  13. SE Lain? on Real Life Doom With Point-And-Shoot Positioning · · Score: 1

    Anyone read that and think about the game in Serial Experiments: Lain? Hehehe... "Are you a PK?"

  15. Re:Useful top end? on 150 Mbit/s DSL. · · Score: 1

    the technology you speak of is called DFITIL. 8-)
    There's a version called IFITIL, which is fibre to the house, then it turns to copper. what was that about an 18000ft limit again? lol

  16. Re:Mixed bag on Enter The Matrix - Patches, No Reviews? · · Score: 2, Informative

    the random spawns are the only thing on your list i have encountered on the PS2 version...

  17. Re:Don't waste your money on Enter The Matrix - Patches, No Reviews? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    the PS2 version kicks much ass. It was really intended for the console anyway, i think. *shrug*

  18. Re:This be what I'm excited about from E3 on E3 - John Romero's Newest FPS, Via N-Gage · · Score: 1

    uh... Mario = Nintendo. not very likely there will be an Xbrick port.

  22. Re:Call me cynical on William Gibson on Blogging · · Score: 1

    righto. i'll agree to that.

  23. Re:Call me cynical on William Gibson on Blogging · · Score: 5, Insightful

    sounds like flamebait to me. i'll bite.

    how exactly is blogging dying? from everything i have observed, weblogs (on whatever issue; politics, technology, religion, personal) have been getting more popular. in fact, when america attacked iraq back in march, several "warblogs" carried unbiased information about what was going on. these places got millions of hits per day when conflict broke, and they might have been getting a couple hundred a day before that.

    blogging is far from dying ;)

    also, gibson usually gets rather deep with his entries, more of an insight into his mind than a "OMFG taht chick r0xx0rz :O :O :O"

    *shrug*

  24. let's hope... on Update on Tennessee Super DMCA · · Score: 1

    let's hope that the people old enough to vote in TN can actually make a difference here... a couple hundred people showed up to stop an income tax (god forbid we lower regressive taxes...), so maybe this has a chance of being stopped? i know i'm just being optimistic, but i can't help but think.... lol
