  1. Re:So, what now? on Keith Packard's Xfree86 Fork Officially Started · · Score: 1

    FYI Nvidia employees more software people than hardware people. Its obviously not that easy.

  2. tequila on WLANs As Spam Conduit · · Score: 5, Funny

    These statistics should be taken with a salt lick...
    Does spam go well with tequila?

  3. Re:"Sampling an artists music" on RIAA Moves Against College-Network Fileswapping · · Score: 4, Funny

    HA, like they actually play music on MTV.

  4. Re:Build Engine? on Duke Nukem 3D Source Released to GPL · · Score: 1

    Don't EVER post a story about porn sites and end it with a link entitled "Check it out here"
    You really got my hopes up :(

  6. Re:The big question on Technical Review for Red Hat Linux 9 · · Score: 3, Funny

    Yeah, i'm tired of being left out in the cold on stuff like this. Slashdot should post a story about it or something.

  7. Keep goin' Taco on IPv4 Headers Investigated · · Score: 0

    Most of the other comments to this story are saying how lame this reposting is getting. Not realizing that seeing how everyone is getting progressivly angry is the funniest thing out today.

    I will be dissapointed unless I see at least 3 more reposts of this story.

  8. Re:Image integrity? on LCD Screens Double as Speakers · · Score: 4, Funny

    The screen will likely require a midrange/woofer to reproduce the full spectrum of sound.

    No dude, they'll just build the woofer into your keyboard. Though I fear it will turn into some kind of high-tech ouija board when you crank up the Dr. Dre.

  9. Re:Still inferior on The Next XFree86 Wars: XFT2 vs STSF · · Score: 1

    Just out of curiosity what versions of windows are you using? The fonts in WindowsXP are absolutely amazing. Much better than those in Windows2k in my opinion. And much better than any fonts I have ever seen in X.

  10. Re:Because it's bundled on Anything Box Releases An Album To Share · · Score: 1, Redundant

    I don't believe windows come with a zip utility.
    Granted most people have winzip on their computer but windows dosent come with it. And winzip does handle tar files.

  11. Re:Don't reflect realities on A Hydrogen-Based Economy · · Score: 1

    What about Nuclear?

  12. Re:self-censorship! yayness. on Peer Pressure Porn Filter · · Score: 1

    Seems like when we're online, sometimes self-awareness goes out the window.
    I have a few comments to add to this
    First this new system of self..... Oh shit! its 6:30 already

  13. Re:Editorializing on New Legit Napster Service Coming · · Score: 1

    I know that several services cover *some* of the complaints that I have. I am not aware of one that covers all.
    There is, its called Kazaa :)

  14. Re:OK, there's only one way to solve this ... on Is The Earth's Rotation Changing? · · Score: 1

    So thats why I got a D in physics.
    *cowers in shame*

  15. Re:OK, there's only one way to solve this ... on Is The Earth's Rotation Changing? · · Score: 1

    I think what the poster was getting at was that if we all started running west we would eventually have to walk back home. This walking back home would reverse the effects. The only way that it would work would be to not go back home or to run completly around the world.

  16. Re:Market Flaw on Baby Bells Promise Broadband Stagnation · · Score: 1

    I believe its "There are lies, damn lies, and taxes"

    also there's the one, "Two things in life are certain, death and benchmarks."

  19. Re:FORTRAN on Use of Math Languages and Packages in Research? · · Score: 1

    Ha! I do the exact same thing with perl.
    Its a fiber model that models the behavior of individal fibers under compression. I'm not doing any of the math, just animating the compression.

  20. Re:Fortran on Use of Math Languages and Packages in Research? · · Score: 1

    I'm sorry, but the correct spelling of that is FORTRAN. :-)

  21. FORTRAN on Use of Math Languages and Packages in Research? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I'm working on a thesis with a math professor here at school. We're working on a mathematical fiber model which requires a whole lot of computation and a whole lot of data. My advisor does all the computations by writing FORTRAN programs and running them on an SGI Octane. Yeah the language is really old an ugly, but it's still useful for mathematics and its what a lot of mathematicians use in academia.

  22. Re:Get his book on Swarm Intelligence · · Score: 1

    Well I'll just have to swarm over to amazon and get it... Dr.Bonabeau
