  1. omg on Revolution Interface, DS Chart-Toppers · · Score: 1

    this is probably the most worthless article i've read in a long time

    it's a bunch of images, that anyone could have drawn, that shows how the system would most likely work

    anyone could have figured out how it would work

    so.. why is this news and interesting?

    i love slashdot, but this.. ?

    dude, she's cute (http://media.babes.entertainment.ign.com/articles /622/622426/img_2838400.html) and by definition that makes everything alright [nods]

    It sounds like you're speaking in tongues.

    Times when games were fun to play for a very very long time? Surely you're from outer space?

    Tell us about these times, let us dream with you dear sir!

  5. Amiga? on Texas Instruments Embedding Linux · · Score: 1

    Am I the only one who, when reading the specs on the website, gets the feeling that the "Amiga-setup" might be coming back in style? :)

  6. Re:Popular channels subsidize less popular ones on FCC Report Supports a la Carte TV Pricing · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Or the history channel and similar channels will be charged at a higher rate, to be able to survive with fewer viewers?

    I'd be more than happy to pay $5 each for the good channels (discovery channels for example, mtv is not an example) instead of paying $30 (or whatever) to have 3 good and 400 shitty channels.

    too bad that mirror isn't up-to-date

  8. Re:Uh on Cyber Monday Doesn't Exist · · Score: 4, Informative

    looking at google now, it's up to 1.8m

    look at the results though, they are from cnn, yahoo, cnet etc etc
    all big sites, and as you can probably guess, google crawls these sites a few times every day

    so google crawling and indexing 1.8m pages in a week isn't impossible at all

  9. Re:Ignores DVD Region Code on VLC Media Player 0.8.4 is out · · Score: 4, Informative

    It should be noted that the newer Powerbooks will ask you for a new region code and if you select Cancel it will automatically eject the DVD, thus rendering it impossible to even try with VLC :-/

  10. Re:fear is a good thing on Scientists Produce Fearless Mice · · Score: 0

    is the reason i just don't wander into traffic the fear of dying?

    i've always seen it as feeling that i want to live a bit longer

    i don't think (ha!) that i'm afraid of dying, but there are so many other things i'd like to do before dying, so therefore i don't wander into traffic

    won't work with a lot of isps though

    know some german isp operating in the uk, so uk-users will get a "german" ip

  17. Re:part 2- not trolling, just a little frustrated on OpenBSD 3.8 Released · · Score: 4, Informative

    Two ways:

    1. Make your own ISO (http://www.pantz.org/os/openbsd/makingaopenbsdcd. shtml)

    2. Download an inofficial ISO (http://www.hup.hu/modules.php?name=News&file=arti cle&sid=9953)

    Both of these steps should of course be followed by buying at least something from the OpenBSD store at http://www.openbsd.org/orders.html

  19. Welcome to 2005! on New Golden Age for Outside-the-Box Startups? · · Score: 1

    Seriously, who'd buy software from a company (to avoid OSS zealots) that doesn't seem to have enough money to invest in a website?

    I mean, have a look at the website VOware have, it looks like it's from the 80s

  20. Re:ugh.. on Get Ready For The 20-inch Laptop · · Score: 1

    Since they use the same technology as normal desktop lcd screens, i'd assume that they (the laptop versions) use more or less exactly the same amount of electricity.

    ie around 40 watt. More on screens and energy usage here

  21. windows == difficult to use? on Are Media Writers Biased Towards Apple? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    "This reality is not going to change. In fact it will only get worse as technology coverage is handed to newer, less-qualified observers who simply cannot use a Microsoft Windows computer."

    doesn't that, sort of, imply that windows is too difficult to, you know, use?

  22. Re:Windows and Exchange. on DSPAM v3.6 Released · · Score: 4, Informative

    from the FAQ (http://dspam.nuclearelephant.com/faq.shtml#1.15)

    Q. Does it work with Windows?
    A. v3.2 is the first to include a Windows build supplement, which includes the necessary Visual C++ project files and portage to compile the agent and tools under Windows. Check out the win32/ directory in the source tree for more information. Win32 support is still unofficial, but seems to work well. Of course getting it compiled is one thing, getting it integrated is another. It's probably best to build it under Cygwin using the general distribution.

  23. Re:They're Dreaming on EU Claims Internet Could Fall Apart Next Month · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    English is commonly used in places like France and Germany.

    reality check perhaps?

    people in germany and france HATE english (not all of them, of course), and most of them refuse to learn and speak it

    why do you think france wanted (want?) to make the internet mainly french?

  24. Re:Better translation? on Origen 360 Revealed in Less Than 12 Hours · · Score: 5, Funny

    you have to assume factus in the second clause; quo and loco are paired despite not being contiguous; and although Originis and angelis look like they should go together, they don't - they just happen to be the same case and number. Floruit is perfect active indicative 3rd singular - not a present subjunctive as IGN believes - ludent is present active indicative 3rd plural (IGN left this word out entirely!), and circumdati is a perfect passive participle in nominative plural. It agrees with electi.

    i SO wish i understood just 10% of that
