  1. online website voice helpdesk on How Voice Enhances Life Online · · Score: 1

    Is it possible to have a voice helpdesk system on my website? a java client would be great for answering a few questions, but, am I still dreamming here? or what are the alternatives?

  2. is it possible to mix raid iwith non raid? on Basics of RAID · · Score: 1

    Im thinking of adding a couple big disks to raid together for user files

    And keep my small hard drive for the operating system, if OS dies Id like to restore its image from the raid array.

    Am I dreaming here? or how can I do it? :D

  3. Your new job: MAKE it compatible! :P on Multiple-Target Hyperlinks for the Masses · · Score: 1

    Ive seen so many DHTML hacks arround the net, that I can simply asure you that someone will come up with a propper workarround so that your dumb workarround idea to11, 22, 33, is fully supported under Mozilla (and friends), IE, Opera, Webcore, KHTML, etc, etc, etc and what not.

    I just dont understand why you cant simply make it a small library to be included in any page and called with javascript so that it is widespread and not leace it stuck to a weird wiki only module, WTF is wrong with my own php coded micro app?

    LINK REL="Multilink" TITLE="Multilink" HREF="/Multilink.css" TYPE="application/rss+xml"
    script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"
    src="Multilink.js" /script

    After this code you could do someting smarter with a couple javascript document.write things so that, if javascript is enabled show your fancy popup window BUT if there is no javascript then an user will simply see plain old html links.

    so the real question is: why the F*ck is it so urgent to completely outdate old and not-so-old browsers all of the sudden? gees!

    Get a life! ..go read cosmopolitan or something lol

  4. Windows? UNPLUG THE SUCKER FROM THE NETWORK! HAHA! on What is the Best Firewall for Servers? · · Score: 1

    Just look for the network connection cable at the back of each Windows machine, DISCONNECT and you are all set! haha

    The next best thing is to have any free OS (linux, *bsd etc) with squid cache presintalled plus maybe antivirus etc?, 2 network interface cards on the server, start squid and turn OFF automatic net sharing/routing, all win clients should connect to squid

    This is the very basic idea, that we are all talking about.

    free OS, squid included plus brain.
    30 buck old pc from ebay (no monitor needed) easilly controlled remotelly.

  5. 1 Movie DVD cost 1.36 USD WITH PROFFIT!! on Software Piracy Seen as Normal · · Score: 1

    How can you be expect people to pay for a 30 buck DVD when you can get the same piece of shit Movie DVD that costs 1.36 USD WITH PROFFIT to the counterfitter already included!!??

    You can also bring back the DVDs you purchased and exchange them for any other title for a mere 0.90 USD!

    These are current NOT wholesale prices in Mexico, I bet bulk prices in china MUST be way cheaper!

    Dont get me wrong here, but are works really worth the extra 28.64 USD that only make 5 or 6 assholes richer?

    That extra 28.64 USD will NOT even go straight to the artists paycheck anyway!

    I think the industry FAT guys are the real thieves cornering hard working people to buy the only entertainment they can afford, and get to save 28.64 USD to feed their families.

    I for one, just watch my movies on satellite TV, and skip the whole bullshit of actually having to go and buy the darn thing in the first place.

    But if Yahoo includes movies in their unlimited music deal for a low monthly price, Im all for it! ;)

  6. more video? but I just watched fox! maybe tomorrow on CNN Now Offers Free Online Video · · Score: 1

    I am just done watching the news at FOX and I get this news?

  9. Re:eBay on Are CRTs History? · · Score: 1

    yeah give or take at least 10 years ahead youll still be able to get an used monitor off ebay.

    Now they intend to use this as an excuse to poke into MY information?

    That does it! is microsft actually rewriting the constitution here?

    Dear american, do you think there's really a constitution that protects you? damn!

  12. I don't want to downgrade from Linux, thanks! on 64-Bit Windows Releases Now Available · · Score: 1

  13. Where's that KERNEL TESTING HOWTO? on Torvalds Unveils New Linux Control System · · Score: 1

    Seriously, where is it? there should be a very comprehensive howto and an automated reporting method.

    I guess I won't mind adding a little extra activity to my time.

    I am used to linux so much that las month I tried XP I was blown away by the fact that applications just die, or the whole thing dies! sometimes a reboot, sometimes closing all apps, it was a horrible experience! and I am supposed to have lotsa memory to avoid problems :S

    Im back to safety, no more sadness, so my productivity went back up

    yeees, I just met XP to see if things where the same, sad to say, worse even though the theme is cute :) ...looks like one of those included in mandrakes icewm themes ;)

    So I thank every person on this planet who has been involved with linux and am here to serve :)

  14. Re:Too Late? NOT REALLY! on NeroLinux vs. K3b · · Score: 1

    Windows users still represent 90%+ of worldwide computer users, so finding the same burning program on linux as the one they allready know how to use will help them dive into the unknown world of linux more comfortably :)

    I wonder if they will ever support emovix? heh if they did, I bet it would give them a competitive advantage over other brands even on the windows version.

  15. wine users actually used automatic updates? on Microsoft Admits Targeting Wine Users · · Score: 1

    I thought wine could do it's thing all by itself :S

    Have ppl been updating wine with windowsupdate? sounds to me like they are also installing antivirus/antispyware software and getting upgrades online and all hehe (maybe even getting viruses and all!?!??!?!) ;)

    Why not just make a dual-boot lin/win machine and tell wine to use the original /mnt/crap/windows/system partition? Since it's a legal installation and files are not moved/copied/pirated, it laughs it's ass out of any M$ EULA.

    is this possible? anybody done it? how? heh

    p.s. no wonder they came up with .net, in that case just compile with mono heh

  16. XP! not X? on 3D Sphere Interface for XP · · Score: 1

    You may cal this flamebait, but still, I don't see any news here; isn't this a dupe?

  24. I wonder what the defense lawyer has to say to: on Pair Arrested After Telling Lawyer Jokes · · Score: 1

    Maybe we need a lawyer jokeathon to lightn up the day!

    and to start the day:

    A dying man calls his priest (rabby or whatever), doctor and lawyer to his death bed, gave each 25,000 USD and ask them to pur the money on his tomb in case he dies to make sure hell be welthy in the afterlife according to his regional cultural beliefs.

    A week later he dies, the three attend the funeral and put their respective envelopes with the body.

    Three months later they meet ocationally, and the priest tells the other two that he only gave 10,000 USD back only because he did not want to waste all that money; the doctor confesses as well only to giving back 8,000 USD!

    The lawyer starts telling them that they should be very ashamed, and that his an example to honesty since his personal check in the envelope was for the complete 25,000! :D

    A little more googling might give you a more recent knoppix version (as of 2day it's 3.7 and 3.8 out soon), or there might be another bootable CD linux distro for PPC that contains partimage.
