  1. Re:NetBSD? on Linux beats Windows to Intel iMac · · Score: 1

    Congradulations! You win the thread! (Hey, it made _me_ laugh at least.)

  2. NetBSD? on Linux beats Windows to Intel iMac · · Score: 3, Funny

    Okay, so it runs Linux now. But can it boot NetBSD yet? ;)

  3. Be Nice! Don't go to the yakima county website! on Cops, Wifi, Treasure Hunts, And More! · · Score: 2, Funny

    C'mon guys..... don't go to the Yakima County website! I need that bandwidth to keep surfing slashdot!

    Sincerly,
    The poor little sysadmin from their ISP.

  4. Re:Finally, my first post! on Linux Web Browsers Reviewed · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Its a pitty that the one they finally DID accept was the one we've already seen at least twice before.

  5. Re:seeing the pictures without Flash. (corrected) on Camera Meets Speedometer, Travel Across Country Together · · Score: 2, Informative

    Damned slashdot broke the url...

    http://www.kodak.com/US/en/corp/features/onTheRo ad / ostcards/tellYourFriends.shtml?mile=1
    and just changing the mile=# on the end.

  7. Re:wouldn't it be easier.... on Text-to-Speech on a Low-Power Chip · · Score: 1

    unlimited minutes to local/same provider calls is starting to become more and more standard, under that plan, would this logically be a free call?

  8. wouldn't it be easier.... on Text-to-Speech on a Low-Power Chip · · Score: 5, Informative

    as the writeup said, this could be used in a cellphone to read what you were looking at, but wouldn't it be simpler, and backwards compatible, to just do text to speach synthisis on a remote computer. every cell phone out there can already just transmit the sound from a remote location, and it wouldn't require any new/expensive chips.

  9. Re:real FPShooter simulation on Virtual Reality With Unreal Tournament · · Score: 1

    If you feel that fatalities may decreace the popularity of your game, you may want to try something a little more tame, PaintBall for instance.

  10. emacs on MenuetOS Debuts · · Score: 1

    Are you sure you don't want to write one in emacs? God only knows that all that monstrosity needs is to be able to boot itself. lol.

  11. 2.5 FPS on Final Fantasy At 2.5FPS · · Score: -1, Redundant

    At 4/10ths per frame, wouldn't the actual frame rate be 2.5 FPS? I think someone needs to retake some grade school math classes...

  12. Re:Ask Slashdot: Which Car to Buy? on Which Laptop To Buy? · · Score: 1

    >> I've heard that this driving thing is pretty cool, and everybody agrees that a car is neccessary. Which car should I buy? I just recently bought a Porsche 924S... a very nice car... but just about any Porsche, VW, or Audi would be what i'd recommend.. (yeah... i know i know i know...he's not serious... so what? *LOL*)

  13. Re:Well, a little good ol Russian vodka and... on Sklyarov Released On $50,000 Bail · · Score: 1

    >> (If you can actually drink at work, post where you work. I'll send my resume)

    Here at FiveK Computers/CodeCorrect, drinking at work is not only acceptable, but even encouraged... only on fridays though... (*damn*)

  14. Re:Not sure about this on Experiment Shows Neutrinos Have Mass · · Score: 1

    Now THIS is a .sig that i should be using *L* ... the United States, home of beer with alcohol content so low it has to be expressed in scientific notation ...

  15. Sure... on Surfing With Your Commodore 64 · · Score: 2

    Sure the C64 is great, but my hostname at work says it all... -- i.wish.my.vic20.had.more.than.fivek.com

  16. Very good... on Kaplan on DeCSS, DMCA, Hackers, and More · · Score: 1

    Due to your exelence in correcting english mistakes.... i name thee the first official Slashdot grammar nazi.

  17. Re:Sigh .. *gives you a clue* on Strategic Commander Controller For RTS · · Score: 2

    Alright... i /WAS/ going to mod you down... but what the hell... X11 does have joystic drivers, check XF68Config sometime... you can use them as input devices (they, of course, revert back to the kernel driver under linux, but thats another story) beings you don't want to use it as a joystick in this case (playing an RTS, you'd want it as an input device like a keyboard) it only makes sence that it would need an X11 driver to be used as such. anyway... there is your clue... enjoy it =)

  18. Re:macs on Space Object May Be Killer - In 2030 · · Score: 1

    hey now.... i kinda like the 37 mac SE/30's i got yesterday, and with the ammount of time i spent getting them all working, i don't really want them shot off into space quite yet ;)

  19. Re:Plex86 and bochs on Plex86 Boots Linux In Normal Mode · · Score: 3

    If i am not mistaken, they are both written by the same people.. the diffrence between them is in their speed... Bochs emmulates an x86 chip on any hardware it will run on (say, on a Mac running PPCLinux or whatever). Plex86 uses the actual CPU in a virtualized invironment.... it requires real x86 hardware under it, but is much faster than emmulating everything as is done by bochs.
