  1. Tangables on News.com: Crypto Doesn't Kill - People Do · · Score: 2

    The problem I see, is that most people view somethings that's encrypted as something more tangable. They want to be able to get their hands on it. They assume simply because people want to hide what a message says, it must be bad/evil. I'd like to be able to keep all my info private.

    CIA officials just need to find better ways of snooping on people.

  2. Re:LegOS Should Be Renamed on LEGO Responds to Business 2.0 · · Score: 1

    In the timeless words of Barney Gumble - "I like it!"

  3. Re:See also... on Bouncing UK Children Cause Earthquake · · Score: 1

    It's all about google.

    The third paragraph explains how route step came to be.

  4. Pretty dumb for a doctor. on George Lucas Wields Light Saber · · Score: 1

    Did this Doctor actually think he would get away with calling his product a light saber? i remember a cool band that had to change it's name from green jello to jelly

  5. Re:Did anybody listen to the mp3? on Pennsylvania Meteor Report · · Score: 1

    Flaming balls that go down in corn fields.

  6. Re:Not at all... on AOL Desktops On New PCs · · Score: 1

    AOL is even inking a deal with Qwest (used to be USWEST)to offer DSL

  7. Intel needs to worry about Bus speed on Intel To Drop Rambus Exclusivity, Support SDRAM · · Score: 1

    It doesn't make sense for Intel to be as worried about which type of RAM it's chip can support. It needs to start worrying about forcing mobo's to start increasing BUS speed. It's still the worst bottleneck in my PC.

  8. Charley Pride is behind it all on Restricted CDs Quietly Distributed · · Score: 2

    I don't know any of his music, but I do know his name always shows up when people discuss copying CD's. Maybe he's made up, or some sort of robot.

  9. Ascii art on Web-based Collaborative Artwork · · Score: 1

    Ascii art was also really hard to do before computers came along. Not impossible, just really hard.

  10. Re:Heavy! on 1/4 Width Rack-mount Linux Servers · · Score: 1

    Damn foreigners. Always using the comma in the wrong spots. Use decimal places people.

  11. Keep em coming for PC's on Squaresoft To Go Multiplatform · · Score: 1

    I don't care about consoles. Keep them games comin' for my PC, and all will be well. Plus, Pr0n on my DreamCast is all blurry.

  12. Good news for Prince on [Your Name Here] Goes To Mars · · Score: 1

    Now that he has his name back, he can send it. --Mod this down.

  13. Re:New England Accent on Review: Tomb Raider · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but say chowder.

  14. Re:Stop picking on poor Angelina's chest on Review: Tomb Raider · · Score: 1

    The picked the wrong actor for the role. Laura San Giacomo (from The Stand) would have made a much better choice. She already has the larger chest, looks more like the character, and her first name is closer to Lara.

  15. Re:A shout to the 3rd shift unix admins.... on Duke's All Out of Gum · · Score: 1

    Thanks!

  16. Re:So basically... on Netscape Backs Away From Browsers · · Score: 1

    Yeah, AOL is using the square wheel still.

  17. Re:Mozilla on Netscape Backs Away From Browsers · · Score: 1

    You should try IE Beta 6, it's even better. This is good news for me, since I work in tech support, and almost eveyone calling that has a problem with our website is using either Netscape, or the AOL browser. That, plus our webAdmins suck, should make it less likley for me to roll my eyes when I ask what ISP they use, and they tell me, "Oh Ize use Netscape."

  18. Re:My Mom... on Four Companies Get Half Your Clicks · · Score: 3

    Yahoo! uses Google for it's searches.

  19. Re:How would Jon Katz classify these guys? on When Aviaks Attack · · Score: 1

    He wasn't talking about doing his laundry, re-read his wording and you'll realilize he's getting off to the Downy Bear.

    "masturbation and laundry"

  20. What about inverted Sound Waves on Commercial Water Cooling, And Quiet · · Score: 1

    Couldn't we just make a transmitter that inverts the sound waves to cancel them out? Most of the noise is predictable. I've seen this for mufflers, but cannot remember which manufacturer used it.

  21. Re:Boring and cliche invective is for the converte on More Thoughts on Microsoft vs. Open Source · · Score: 1
    Installing software is a sysadmin task.

    That's it. This is how Linux will succed. Think of it as Valet Parking for the average user. We install Linux and show them how to get online, then if they want something, they call their Linux Service Provider, and the LSP will install the software for them. This could use some more discussion.

  22. Re:Is it just me... on Review: The Mummy Returns · · Score: 1

    And where they hell was slashdot when the canceled "Jack of All Trades"?

  23. Re:Interesting artifacts on Color Photography with B&W Film · · Score: 1

    It's from the slight delay from each photo. You'll notice most of the photographs are of people standing still, whereas the water is rushing behind the man. The different colors come because there are three pictures taken along a time axis, so the water is in different places for each picture, if only by a few inches.

  24. Re:I find it interesting, but.... on Selling Off The Airwaves · · Score: 1
    When you mention XM, are you talking about Sirius Radio?

    I've been following this company for awhile(ever since it was CDRadio), and think they have great product. I thought they are a little small scaled, only dealing with commercial free car radio, and could've used their satellite systems for a wider scope(wireless PDA)

  25. Re:Kudos to Google on Google Doubles Server Farm · · Score: 1
    I know they didn't make any money from their affiliate program(the one where you put a search box on your home page for others to use)

    A friend I work with was able to setup a macro that searched a few hundred times an hour. It wasn't a hack or anything, just simulated keystrokes through a macro program. I figured he'd get caught at some point, which he did. To his amazement, he still was mailed a check for over $6000.00US. No joke, he really got the check

    So I signed up, and ran the same macro, and cleared $700.00US. Unfortunately, they shut down the affiliate program before I could make any more money. It sure was nice getting a few checks ahead for my car payment though. I do think I'll switch to Red Hat now. I've been using Corel linux, since it's just me, with no network.
