  1. If ever there was a bad idea.. on Do-Not-Email Registries? · · Score: 2, Funny

    ..this is it!

    Can you imagine what will happen when the spammers get the list?

  2. Cool Russian Shuttle on Columbia Coverage · · Score: 1

    I haven't seen any links to the russian verison of Shuttle Buran. Here is the link

  3. Jesus what are they doing?! on Battlefield Medkits Improve · · Score: 1

    "This bandage has the potential to save not only my teammate but possibly my friend -- the guy I have lived with, slept with, spent probably more time with than I have if I was married," Army Master Sgt. Michael Brochu said.

  4. But.. on New Substrate Tech Creates System LCDs · · Score: 0, Redundant

    ..the System LCD architecture is Sharp's Zaurus SL-C700 PDA... .. will it run Linux?

  5. ID fanatics on Registered Traveler ID Initiative · · Score: 2, Interesting

    You guys have no idea how innocent ID cards are. We in Europe have them for years and we sure don't feel like being watched.

    The next time the terrorists strike you'll blame the government again. Maybe you should blame yourself for not listening to your security experts.

    Face it, you guys know IT, but you know nothing about security. You have no idea how all these terrorists in the last year were caught before they made any damage.

    (I'm sure this will get moded down to -2 in 1 minute)

  6. Well nice.. on Font HOWTO For Linux · · Score: 1

    .. now you've insulted all the Yugo fans out there!

    I hope you're really proud of yourself.

  7. Don't overdo it! on Fun with Fog Generators · · Score: 1

    Dry ice is frozen Carbon Dioxide, or CO2, which is a gas under standard temperature and pressure conditions. The atmosphere contains about .035% of this gas. CO2 is a greenhouse gas, which means it absorbs light at infrared wavelengths. An increase in the concentration of this gas would, some scientists believe, cause an increase in the atmosphere's average temperature. The high concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere of the planet Venus is said to contribute to that planet's high average temperature.

  8. Can you see.. on News.com Links to DeCSS Program · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    .. the irony of sentence: An honest mistake?

  9. Economics on UT2003 Gone Gold, Ships with Linux Support · · Score: 1

    This will get modded down as flamebait probably..

    I hear people saying "I'll buy this game just to show my support for porting Linux games"

    I beleive this approach is wrong. It is not represening your preferences and the law of supply and demand is broken (demand too high).

    Let's say a million geeks bux this Linux game. SW Companies smell profit -> they all start porting -> the fake demand can't cover the supply -> companies lose money and stop porting games to Linux

    All we have then are a bunch of companies that have lost money on Linux and won't even think about porting programs/games.

  10. Re:About America... on Australia Taps More Phones Than Entire U.S. · · Score: 1

    >The last time I checked, the Netherlands hasn't sent troops anywhere to save people.

    Sure, Netherlands sent troops to protect Srebrenica in Bosnia. You probably know what happened next. 8.000 massacred Srebrenica civilians. Most americans probably don't know it but only a few years ago we had a massacre in Europe that makes 9/11 pale in comparison.

  11. Re:Population growth or WHAT ??? on Europe Net Users Now Outnumber US/Canada · · Score: 1

    Please bear in mind that EU will expand in near future (2004 or sooner). Some numbers: Poland 40 mio, Czech rep. 10 mio, Hungary 10 mio.

  12. A question on Danish Goal: 50% of Electricity from Wind · · Score: 1

    Cold some expert explain why these modern windmills have such narrow blades? It doesn't seem logical for a non-expert.

  13. Diamonds? That's junk! on Diamonds - Are They Really Worth the Cost? · · Score: 1

    Come on, throw these worthless rocks away and get your girl a really useful device: Alex Chiu immortality ring!

    www.alexchiu.com

    Just don't blame me when you become fed up with your wife after 150 years.

  14. Oligopoly on Music Companies Convicted of Price Fixing Again · · Score: 1

    [i]Providing more proof that the record industry is indeed a oligopoly[/i] There's nothing wrong with oligopols, 90% of all things you buy come from Oligopol markets. The main property of these markets is that the products are differentiated in the eyes of the consumer.

  15. Re:Tagline on Spielberg on Privacy, Minority Report · · Score: 1

    Word up. One of the best posts here.

  16. I totally agree! on Dutch Judge Cracks Down on Hyperlinks · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I agree with those smart people! The best way to show the dangers of nuclear energy is to derail a train and let the contents spill over a large area. That'll show the government!

  17. Re:For all you non-USians out there on Nixon Tape To Reveal Secrets at Last? · · Score: 1

    You've been to slovenia, that is hind of cool

  18. The force of being shot on Physics in the Movies · · Score: 1

  19. I can't wait on 10-Gigabit Ethernet Standard Approved · · Score: 1

    I can't wait to plug my DSL into this thing.. wohoo!

  20. Re:Who cares? on Get Ready For Divx On Xbox · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Wrong! Some movies can be waay better than VHS. The Matrix is one of them - it can be compressed to only 600MB and still look better than VHS. Now Saving private Ryan is another story, you have to use 2 CDs to get decent quality.

    I'm talking about DVD rips of course. No selfrespecting citizen downloads those cinema crap.

  21. Re:EU sponsors many open source based projects on European Commission Sponsors Linux Audio Distribution · · Score: 1

    Not to forget the counties that will (soon) join the EU - Slovenian ministry of information society funded some open source development projects last year.

  22. Re:When the rest of the world cannot fight back... on X-45 Makes Debut Flight · · Score: 1

    And you wonder how he got moded at 5 and you got 1?

  23. Other purposes on 1770 Mechanical Chess Player Inspired Babbage · · Score: 4, Funny

    Those machines were not built just to get rich:

    In 1879 Mephisto (Gunsberg) went on tour, defeating every male player. However, when playing ladies, it would obtain a winning position, then lose the game, offering to shake hands afterwards

    .. but also to get chicks!

  24. Re:I read about it on 1770 Mechanical Chess Player Inspired Babbage · · Score: 1

    Great link. Thanks.

  25. I read about it on 1770 Mechanical Chess Player Inspired Babbage · · Score: 1

    This is not the only chess playing machine.. There were others, most of them containing a chess playing midget. But then some man got really frustrated when he lost the game and shot the machine with his gun..
