  1. Re:Security for the home user on Nmap Security Tool Survey · · Score: 1

    Gotta love the 'expert friends'. Now if I could get my friends to pay me for the problems I fix for them.

  2. Re:Security for the home user on Nmap Security Tool Survey · · Score: 2, Funny

    But if everyone did that wouldn't you be out of a job?

  3. Re:Doesn't sound like an 'expert' to me.. on The MPAA's Lobbying-Fu is Stronger Than Yours · · Score: 1

    Sure they do. Steel embargoes for example.

  4. Re:False Statistics, Media Statistics... on SARS and the Internet · · Score: 1
    Reread the chart this is what it says:

    United States 54 2 0 23 None 30/Apr/2003


    The first number is total cases, second number is new cases 3rd number is deaths.

  5. Re:At my university... on Educating Users/Students on Reducing Exposure to the RIAA · · Score: 1

    I had a good laugh at your comment. A P2P user getting upset because someone is not being fair and allowing uploads. Man what a hoot.

  7. Re:Fair Use is NOT Theft! on RIAA Chats With Song Swappers · · Score: 1

    1) How can you guarantee that the music on a Kazaa network isn't being sold later?
    2) Fair use is not taking the entire work and using, it's taking part of teh work and using it in research etc. WIth proper attribution.

  8. Re:JohnCompanies.com on Finding Decent Unix Server Hosting? · · Score: 1

    It's quite sad that the bad comments about JonhCompanies on K5 got deleted, they seemed liked a cool company until they bought a frontpage ad and silenced those that had trouble.

  9. Re:The New American Gulag Archipelago on Slashback: Hawash, Monomania, Rocketships · · Score: 1

    And here I thought he was just some random "non-white" guy the feds picked up because we're in a police state. He was just minding his business, coding for Intel. Uh huh.

  10. Hawash. on Slashback: Hawash, Monomania, Rocketships · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Victory! Isn't that what every one wanted, for Mike to be charged or released? So now he's charged. And he's in some deep shit too.

  11. Re:Why is this SO F**KING hard to understand? on Apple Introduces iTunes Music Store, iTunes 4, new iPod · · Score: 1

    Great plan.
    The record companies will get a grand total of 5 cents and the artists ( after 'expenses') will owe the record companies $200.

  12. Re:"Anonymous Call Blocking" on Telemarketer Blows Whistle on Tape-Altering Scam · · Score: 1

    So how do I get my dial-up service again? And what about 911?

  13. Re:Yeah, GREAT savings... on Intel Celeron 2.2GHz Reviewed · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Like you can ever get anyone to honor a Pricewatch quote.

  14. Support the EFF? on Verizon Set Back Again in DMCA Subpoena Case · · Score: 1

    Why? They seem to be behind the curve on this one.

  15. Re:UK line charges on Phone Companies Bill Public for Nonexistent Equipment · · Score: 1

    We pay for all our local calls too. It's a flat rate, which is great if you call locally a lot, but is quite expensive if you don't.

  16. Re:Segway vs. VCB, Round 1 on Highlights From Embedded Systems Conference · · Score: 1

    Just remember don't always believe what you hear or read.

  17. Re:How is this anyone's business? on More On Detecting NAT Gateways · · Score: 1

    Well perhaps teh ISP thinks that someone running a NAT with 5 PCs can't possibly beusing all 5. In other words they're thinking that 4 other people are using that bandwidth and that pisses them off. Sure they're getting $45 a month from you but they could be getting $225 a month if all 5 people paid for a connection. That's an extreme case, I am sure they'd only want to charge those extra 4 people 10 bucks a month in addition to what you pay.

    Notice I used people not PCs in the example, yeah sure it's only you in the house but the ISP doesn't believe that.

  18. Re:He died in the first one too... on New Terminator 3 Trailer Released · · Score: 1

    So why did Arnold have to die in the Second film, if they can just keep shipping cyborgs back to past?

  19. Re:Then who next? on SCO Threatens Red Hat and SuSE · · Score: 1

    Yeah I guess it would be a bad legal hassle, but this isn't a cae of Napster and some college kids trading music. There would have to be some awfully good proof with IBM, and if it's true, IBM should suffer. But to say that they'd then go after Apple just to see what they could get on a shakedown is stretching it a bit I think.

    Apple???? What code would Apple have stolen????

  24. My budget. on A Breakdown of Your Monthly Budget? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Wait a year after a DVD comes out to buy it.
    Never go to the movies.
    Avoid eating out at all costs.
    Buy in bulk.
    Save Save Save.

    Being single helps I guess but I have no pity for people who jump into marriage and kids and wonder (whine) about always being poor. With all major decisions in your life it takes planning.

  25. DVD-R?????? on Rabid TiVo Fanaticism · · Score: 2, Informative

    For TV? A VCD or maybe SVCD recorder maybe.
