  1. i used BT once... on Snag the Red Hat 9 ISOs, via Cash or BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    and will never do so again. in the course of downloading a single 140mb file, win2k-sp3 dumped physical memory 4 times. when i closed BT, the problem went away.

  2. Re:Putting people out of business, eh? on Soldering with a Toaster Oven · · Score: 1

    local businesses lose no money, because they don't carry imports to begin with :p

    glad to know i'm not the only one who was confused by that comment *whew*

    i like the dreamcast better anyway?

  5. Re:First reactions. on RAMdisk RAID? · · Score: 1

    12.5 megabytes/second max thruput on 100mbit ethernet, and that's not counting lag time, packet size, etc...

    RAM 'seek time' may be nanoseconds, but that does not mean it will transfer across the network that quickly.

    but i'm not the first one to say this... so...

  6. Re:but you do have a point on The Future of the CD · · Score: 1

    iirc, two of the formats use different types of lasers, so it would be rather hard to make it read both types ;)

  7. Re:Not really helpful... on An X-Client Wrapper for Microsoft Windows? · · Score: 2, Informative

    XFree86 on cygwin just recently got this feature, because of some implementation problems they were having.

    actually, the old graphite reactor is on Bethel Valley road, which is closed to all thru-traffic, so you can't go see it.

  9. Re:Nothing sadder on Goodbye, Dolly · · Score: 1, Informative

    i know your post was meant to be funny, but iirc, dolly lived somewhere near twice as long as the sheep she was cloned from. shortly after dolly was born, the clonee died from a weird disease.

  12. Re:fujitsu hard drives on Have Fujitsu Harddrives Been Failing in Record Numbers? · · Score: 1

    sorry... model numbers are as follows

  13. fujitsu hard drives on Have Fujitsu Harddrives Been Failing in Record Numbers? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    my friends and I all have a 100% failure rate with 10 and 20gb fujitsu hard drives... i got about 4 of them for free from an auction (a computer training business went bottom-up, and i was working with the auctioneers about technical stuff), and none of them lasted more than a week. these were brand new drives. since then, i have had friends that have acquired these same model drives through similar means, and none of them have worked for more than a month or so.

    the problem that would appear:
    things would start to get unstable... acting flakey; so you run scandisk. bad sectors start at the beginning of the drive and continue for at least 5 gigs. not something i want to sit through... i have a friend that did a full scandisk, and it took ~6hrs for a 10gb drive. when it was through, he had ~4gb of usable disk space left.

    just my experience...

  16. well... on Warcraft III: The Single Player Experience · · Score: 1

    if vivendi does not drop the lawsuit, one could always get the game then play it on all the existing warforge-bnetd servers... that would teach them ;)

    well that stinks... guess i'll have to buy a sunstation now.

  18. Re:Not Kids Only on The Rise Of The 15-Year-Olds · · Score: 1

    i am 15 and offended that you think all 15 year olds are so trivial as to make a webpage about... well... manufactured music. ouch. i'm hurting. it sounds to me that you are hurt by people half your age knowing more than you. i believe you should look inside yourself before judging others. you "punk" lick me.

  19. deja vu? on Windows Games On Linux · · Score: 1

    is it just me or did /. post this same thing a few months ago under the wine category with the title something like "Direct3d under wine" mebbe i'm wrong
