  1. Re:Timeliness of the Article... on Take Back Your Time! · · Score: 0, Troll
    Contemporary Americans complain of unprecedented levels of busyness in everyday life. They worry about frenetic schedules, hurried children, couples with no time together, families who rarely eat meals together, and an onslaught of "hidden work" from proliferating emails, junk mail, and telemarketing calls.

    that about sums it up: americans complain & worry.
  2. Re:If you aren't using it to steal movies... on CA Supreme Court Saves LiViD, Pavlovich · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The only thing I would be worried about would be playing my DVDs in Linux, and before the release of Ogle and some Xine plugins this was the only way to play DVDs on my pc. But CSS has grown old. Its really not that advanced of an encryption process.

  3. Re:Unacountable bits? on The Wireless City · · Score: 1, Troll

    I would love to get some Cisco Aironet hardware and setup 802.11b coverage for my entire home communtiy. Of course if I was administrator for this network, I would probably limit traffic to port 80. That would cut down on spamming, plus I would log MAC address to block abusers.

  4. Stereo glasses on eDimensional Wired 3D Glasses Review · · Score: 1, Troll

    I'm really hoping that the prices of Stereo glasses comes down in price, I would really like to be able to watch movies while on the plane. Can standard gaming glasses act as a TV/ DVD viewer?

  5. CSS plug-in on CA Supreme Court Saves LiViD, Pavlovich · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I do believe that I have seen a CSS plug-in for Xine, is that also illegal? I really would like to watch my DVDs on my laptop when I'm on the road. But with out a proper CSS plug-in am I going to be breaking the law, every time I watch Fight Club?

  6. Re:Easy answer on Which Desktop Distro Will Die First? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I believe that Lindows is charging for some of their own technology, including their Win32 implementation. Actually the most cost efffective way to obtain a copy would be to buy a Wal-Mart PC with a version full version of the OS.

  7. Re:Um...so?? on Microsoft vs. Modded Xboxes · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This is going to be the same situation as buying copy protected CDs. Microsoft should release a PCI version of the XBox, just drop Dead to Rights into my DVD-ROM drive, done.

  8. Re:spam on COMDEX Opens with Smallest Attendance Ever · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm still getting mail (some legit, but some borderline-spam) from the 1999 LinuxWorld

    So I guess you aren't on the Linux Kernel Mailing list. "You have 268 unread messages today"
