  1. Re:Windows kernel-mode code signing on Adobe Releases New 64-Bit Flash Plugin For Linux · · Score: 1

    At least some of this can be blamed on the fact that 64-bit versions of Windows Vista and Windows 7 doesn't load unsigned kernel modules except in a "Test Mode" that puts an always-on-top message on all four corners of the screen and which the user must manually turn on at boot time and reboot time.

    Haven't seen this yet. Had 64 bit Vista and just had to do a regedit or something easy like that. Windows 7 just pops up a box asking "are you sure?" with a "Don't ask me again" checkbox. No overlays, no reboot problems. One of us is doing it wrong. Since it something in Windows that "Just Works" in my case, I'm guessing it's me...

    I think most of us here in basement land hold onto our Model M regardless of what may or may not allegedly get in there, hence the confused look.

  21. Re:Electronic media is a poor storage option on Preserving Virtual Worlds · · Score: 1

    I think the article is about troubles with saving the hardware part of the system and other things that are a part of the experience. For example, the fact that you can save the game from the Nintendo cartridge, but you can't save the fact that you have to blow on the connectors in the cartridge every other time you want to play.
