  1. Re:Between? on Apple's Response to Microsoft: Unix Ads? · · Score: 2

    Well, I can answer that - to discover the difference between an orange, you must first split it in two.

  2. Re:Text of Article (fourth section) on Mixing Gigabit, Copper, and Linux · · Score: 2

    Wow, that is the best fucking karma whoring mess I've ever seen. Drink it up dude...

  3. Re:WiFi explained, with helpful comparisons on First, WinModems. Now, WinWiFi. · · Score: 2

    I think it's about 100%. After all, we all know how big the average case is - so we'll just take a bit off and call it a bread box. Or we could rip the guts out of an old 286 (you KNOW you've got one lying around) and use that as a bread box. So yeah, it's 100%.

  4. Re:Another "Ask Google" question? on Cross-platform Password Management? · · Score: 2

    I think perhaps it was meant more to see what was missed. And to get a view of the responses. I would have to say that kerberos/ldap seem to be popular. I now have more of a background and some actual user opinions and experiences. Very helpful in a decision.

  5. Re:Free music distribution on Can Internet Radio Survive? · · Score: 2

    Yeah, we call it a tour. Most good bands do that you know...

  6. Re:with things like this happening on Spy v. Spy · · Score: 2

    Or any decent developer really. Go to the site of your distro and get your packages from there. Check the .sigs if you can (luser not likely to...). If you can't get something, then get somebody who really knows how shit works to make a package for you.

  7. Re:Uh, that's easy on What's the Worst Acronym You've Ever Heard? · · Score: 2

    Yes, that is known. That was where the humor was supposed to be :)

  8. Re:Here's an idea on Announcing Slashdot Subscriptions · · Score: 3, Informative

    Yup, it sure was :)
    The moderators really are on crack!

    Yes folks, that was INFORMATIVE!

  10. Uh, that's easy on What's the Worst Acronym You've Ever Heard? · · Score: 4, Insightful
    It is /.

    I mean how stupid is that? Oh sure! It's H-T-T-P-colon-slash-slash-slash-dot-dot-org. Say what? http:///..org? Uh-huh...

  11. Re:Moron - Actually YOU don't know what... on What About IPv6? How Long Until Widespread Deployment? · · Score: 2

    OK, just because you gave the challenge - IPv5 was the development version of IPv6... moron :)

  12. Re:The poor kid has no friends... on iWarez · · Score: 2
    I thought it was obvious he didn't have any friends. Friends don't let friends use Microsoft software.

    Well that's OK because Mac software has very little to do with Microsoft, doesn't it?
  13. Re:Wait a 1/3 of a minute... on Sun Increases Commitment to GNOME · · Score: 2

    Rephrase: one of the two major destops environments commonly found in Linux distributions. I just think that Sun needs to be careful to not blur Solaris and Linux (yeah, I'll never be unable to tell those two apart. But it's Bob the mid-level manager that you don't want to confuse. He still holds the cash).

  14. Re:List of Slash sites? on Running Weblogs With Slash · · Score: 2
  15. Re:Technology Rolling Along? on Publicly Funded Broadband and 802.11 · · Score: 2

    Because there was only that much bandwidth allocated by the FCC. And since it had to be used in a certain manner, there was only room for 3. (+1 government stupidity highlighted)

  16. Wait a 1/3 of a minute... on Sun Increases Commitment to GNOME · · Score: 2

    So Sun is developing this version of one of the two major destop environments for Linux - the OS that it's busy badmouthing saying that it can't keep up with what they have? Sure, I get it - GNOME is a good desktop environment and is NOT the OS - but try telling that to Bob the Mid-Level Manager. And then you also end up losing recognition...

  17. Re:Behaviour blocking. on Computing Pet Peeves? · · Score: 2

    Wow. Sounds pretty shitty. Why would anybody ever want to use something like that? Oh, wait... (sidenote: one of those filters caught me the first time I tried to submit this)

  20. Re:http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ on Tinfoil Hat Linux: A Distribution for the Paranoid · · Score: 2

    Words of the wise there. I've done the same thing. I'm getting ready to try mass-rolling this thing out in a corporate style environment. My experience is that the first time, you are better off just doing it so that you can. Then scrap it and do it "perfect" the next time. More effort to be used this way, but I found it easier. Regardles...

    Where are you stuck? As soon as I get through the book and the system is usable, X is one step away. And KDE is compilation of QT and a few KDE packages. Feel free to post to the list for help here or e-mail me... (note: I'm only on the blfs-support list!)

  22. Wierd Error on Tinfoil Hat Linux: A Distribution for the Paranoid · · Score: 2

    Anybody else find this: "INVALID DNS SERVERS CONFIGURED AT CLIENT." on the site? Seems that there front page prints that, and anything else just shows up as not being there. A move to duck the Slashdotting?

    You're thinking leech as in user takes a file, but doesn't give anything back. Different principle here.

    Can we use this to create a distributed webserver that where each person who visits the site will serve copies of it? This guy's system can definitely use it! SLASHDOTTED
