  1. HP Printheads on Printers - Are In-Cartridge Printheads Better? · · Score: 1

    These can be expensive and are prone to air ingestion (when you run your cartridge dry) or even when simply replacing the ink cartridges; this pretty much makes them useless and in need of replacement.

  2. Re:Care to define that? on Internet Meltdown Predicted for Tomorrow · · Score: 1

    Right. And if there is no net, its effect IS zero indeed.

  3. Re:Maybe it's me, maybe it's not on Google Releases Gmail Notifier · · Score: 1

    I agree. You can use POP (with Thunderbird or something else) when you're at home; and have the convenience of webmail (using www.mail2web.com) when you're away. Simple. Clean. Private.

  4. Re:What? on Johansen Cracks AirPort Express Encryption · · Score: 1

    3 is a crowd...

  5. Re:Cliff on Expert Warns Of Giant Tidal Wave · · Score: 1

    Must you complicate things?

  6. Re:Cliff on Expert Warns Of Giant Tidal Wave · · Score: 1

    Simple: you create an equal and opposite and perfectly timed wave which would cancel the oncoming wave at the precise location.

  7. Passports!!!! on Unlocking The Power Of the Magstripe · · Score: 1

    Passports... Hmm?

  8. Re:Slashdot mirror on Groklaw Debunks SCO's ELF Heist · · Score: 1

    Favorite line: "That horse was already out of the barn." Case closed.

  9. Cross-reference on Abbreviating Name on Official Documents? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Just cross-reference it with another document which shows the same last name/address/phone/ID # combination.

  10. Did anyone else think the text looks "sick"? on The Black Plague Batted .500 Its Rookie Year · · Score: 1

    The text description on these cards could be a bit neater - considering it's a PDF.

  11. Ecuador on Comparing Internet Cafe Rates Worldwide · · Score: 3, Informative

    about $0.80/hr

  12. Congratulations... on Apple Design Award Winners Announced · · Score: -1, Troll

    That's what you expected, wasn't it?

  13. Re:Didn't work on me on HTML Frames Considered Harmful · · Score: 1

    I'll second that...

  14. Re:External Modems on Modem Success Stories With Linux? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    And...
    1) you can easily/quickly switch them from one box to another
    2) use them with your laptop (assuming you have a serial port on it)

  15. Competition from Google will only improve Yahoo on Yahoo Boosts Email Space in response to Gmail · · Score: 1

    Just give it time.

  16. Re:The question on 'Cut and Paste' Is Out, 'Pick and Drop' Is In · · Score: 1

    Does anyone have a patent on those?

  17. Bad attitude, man on Harmless Pranks During a Downsizing? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Maybe that's why they're letting you go...

  18. Re:So? on Projectionists Using Night Vision Goggles in Theaters · · Score: 1

    Who said he was RECORDING?

  19. Planned evolution? on Fish with Limbs · · Score: 1

    That's like saying that because I would like to fly, I'll just imagine/think myself into having wings (and hopefully ALL my descendants will imagine/think the same) and flap my arms so that a few generations down the road there will be a grandchild with more 'wing-like' arms. Now, let's only hope that (s)he doesn't imagine/think [him|her]self into having more normal arms (because that would destroy all my plans)...
    And, to add to the whole difficulty of it all, fish can't plan for the future that way.

  20. Just a marketing strategy on Google Asks Booble To Cease And Desist · · Score: 1

    In my opinion, it's just a marketing strategy to get attention for their site, which they can change to something else in the future and keep all the 'clients'.

  21. Sacrificial goat... on Earthstation 5 Claimed to be Malware · · Score: 1

    Don't use your main computer for the internet... use a sacrificial goat that you can rebuild from a HD image. Donwload your (il)legal files, burn them on a CD, and then put them on your main computer. Problem solved. Let them delete any files they want. (Problem might be with your personal info related to your internet provider getting stolen...)
