  1. Re:So... on Price-Fixing Settlement Checks in the Mail · · Score: 1

    If you feel like you are paying to much for CD's, than why are you buying them? If you feel like you are getting ripped off then why continue to buy more?

  2. Ebook? on Hacking the XBox · · Score: 1

    The book is under the creative commons license, so you can copy it for non commercial purposes legally. So does anyone have an ebook of it yet?

  3. Noatun plugin? on Audioscrobbler (Anyone Remember Firefly?) · · Score: 1

    I would use it if someone hacked up a Noatun plugin for it. I love using Noatun because it integrates so nice into my KDE desktop.

  4. Re:Ethics. on Many Hackers Too Fat For The FBI · · Score: 1

    Well, isn't someone who breaks into computers illegally commiting a crime? So wouldn't that make them a criminal? Shouldn't we treat criminals like criminals?

  5. News? on AMD's Athlon XP 2700+ · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Is this news? Now I can see posting about the 2700+ if it was actually released. But saying that some people think it will be released on such a date, is not news, sorry.

  6. Re:Who knew about the march to city hall? on LWCE Wrapup · · Score: 1

    Well, there was a whole article about it on slashdot, posted last Sunday.

  7. Re:Plextor? on Hot-Rod Your CD-RW Drive · · Score: 1

    my plextor 4/2/24 scsi screws up while writing about half the time, and my computer is ridiculously fast, I wouldn't overclock if I could...hell, my buffer never ever leaves 100%, yet it still has buffer underruns....ahh well...

  8. Re:No forced downtime? on Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 Released · · Score: 2, Informative

    come check out the wonders of apt-get dist-upgrade, you don't need a new kernel in order to upgrade all of the packages...

  9. Re:I hope Apple keeps Motorola on Slashback: Alternatives, Ads, Apple · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I wouldn't hold your breathe for Motorola, not that I don't want them to be successful, but they just reported a loss of 2.3 billion dollars last quarter. That makes 6 quarters in a row where they have lost money. They just can't go on much longer losing that much money. Maybe if they can get a new Processor out the door....3 year old 800mhz processors aren't going to cut it too much longer.

  10. Re:CS 1.4 on Game Developers Cracking Down on Cheating · · Score: 1

    Transgaming's winex 2.1 release fixes this. Actually AFAK, some video card driver in linux caused objects to be transparent, in other words could be used as a wallhack. I don't remember the specifics on what drivers these were though, nor do I care. What is the fun in playing a game if you are cheating, I just don't understand.

  11. Re:Recognizing IE's Strengths on A First Look at Netscape 7 · · Score: 1

    Have you tried using something like galeon, where gecko is used? It is VERY fast. Faster than IE...I don't see where AOL would have any trouble using the gecko engine...

  12. Re:Less buggy browser? on Slashback: Spambots, Retroism, VoIPhooey · · Score: 1

    Oh sure, and IE has no security holes, RIGHT!

  13. Re:this flaw will crash Mozilla under Linux on Slashback: Spambots, Retroism, VoIPhooey · · Score: 2, Informative

    This bug was fixed yesterday, the day that it was known by the mozilla developers. The crash is fixed, the bug is fixed, it's all fixed. You can see the bugzilla entry here.

  14. Re:How practical is use of this technology? on Speech Recognition, Voice Verification -- Free · · Score: 1

    This would be great, but actually doing it would be very difficult, do you relise how much background noice is in a car? If you turn up the radio loud, do you think your radio is going to be able to hear you in order to turn it back down?

  15. Re:What's the big deal? on Dell To Make MP3 Home Stereo Component · · Score: 1

    Umm...its not even that hard, you get a cable at radio shack, that goes from your sound card to the audio in of your stereo, I have mine hooked up to two 4' speakers in my living room.

  16. WOW! on Mozilla M16 Released · · Score: 1

    Hot Damn This is HELLA Fast, keep up the good work guys!

  17. Re:great thing on Linux Mergers? · · Score: 1

    Umm...redhat is as opensource as corel linux, if you want true free go get Debian...

  18. Damn on 50-Dollar Hackable "WebSurfer" · · Score: 1

    They are all sold out at all the stores in my area. Too bad, those would have made for a good car mp3 player. Oh well, back to the hunt for something that will work, maybe a laptop with a cracked screen?
