  1. Re:MS vista for gamers? on Ballmer Justifies 360's Costs · · Score: 1

    DirectX 10.

  2. Re:Yeah, PlayOnline sucks, and - wait, what? on Xbox Live Needs MMOG Overhaul · · Score: 1

    I believe that what he's complaining about is that unless you (the developer) implement your own infrastructure like PayOnline, err PlayOnline, then you can't implement MMOGs on the XBox 360 due to (perceived) limitations of XBox Live.

    Personally I don't really care. I'm not a big MMO(RPG) fan. Give me my offline, single player Oblivion and I'll be happy. Much better IMO since I don't have to deal with thousands upon thousands of griefers and idiots, plus I get to play, and stop playing, when I want to without feeling that I'm letting them down.

    MMOs tend to make you play more, because of the multiplayer aspect, like you start to feel some sort of obligation to the other players in your party and that if you log out to go do real life stuff you've just screwed your buddies.

  3. Cisco PIX 501 on What is the Best Firewall for Servers? · · Score: 1

    Well it's more than $100 but much less per host if you have more than one machine behind it (say 10 to 50). The Cisco PIX 501 is a nice, capable embedded firewall solution.

  4. Re:NDA be damned! on Microsoft Settlement Compliance Criticized · · Score: 1

    Legal Way? With the DMCA there is no such thing anymore!

  5. Bull on The Truth Revealed · · Score: 1

    Chris Carter has done it again. He answered nothing except perhaps Kirsch has a conscious.

    It was a bunch of bull if you ask me. I can't belive I even watched.

  6. First post? on Judicial Order in MySQL AB vs. Nusphere Suit · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Fingers crossed for the future of the GPL

  7. Diskless booting tool... on Thin Clients in a Computer Lab Environment? · · Score: 3, Informative

    If you are serious about thin (e.g "diskless") clients, take a look at bpbatch. It an interesting diskless boot loader.

    http://www.bpbatch.org/

    BpBatch is a versatile remote-boot processor, that can be downloaded for free from the Web. It can perform a large variety of actions on a computer at boot-time, before any operating system operation has started. Actions performed by BpBatch ranges from partitioning hard disk to authenticating users, including a graphical interface. The main feature of BpBatch is the partition cloning facility, which let you create an image of a computer's hard disk partition and then distribute and install this image on a cluster of PC.

  9. Re:Decrypting SSL? on Patrolling Networks For Insecurities · · Score: 1

    It does not decrypt SSL. That EMERALD component is an apache module which can examine the HTTPS transaction *AFTER* apache has decrypted it.

  10. Re:Ah, the NIC... (sounds neat but the resolution) on Slashback: Rumination, Apologies, Kisses · · Score: 1

    I installed a 2.5" HDD in my NIC and, with a bit of BIOS tweaking, I was able to get 1024x768x16bit color.

  11. Re:central on What Should Happen To Expired Domains? · · Score: 1

    Intersting... I checked. But even more interesting is that Register.com "owns" networksolutionssucks.com.
