  1. Great Bug ! on Entire Moon Added To Google Earth · · Score: 1

    I can see some pins I've put on earth, that are shown on the moon ! (One of them was in Japan; I guess the coordinates are similar) Including the famous extension for North Korea ! That got me for a moment !

  2. Re:Downloading now on Windows 7 Beta Released To Public After Delay · · Score: 1

    The download button didn't work on Firefox.... big surprise ;-) But you can find the URL (a big one) by looking at the source code of the page. DL now, speed varies alot (40 K/s - 400 k/s)

    Usually AV are lazy "string" (bytes) scanners, and could detect those bytes signatures databases on other products. But I would assume any program would at least encrypt their db...

  5. Re:avast the best free one with no lock down like on Reliable, Free Anti-Virus Software? · · Score: 1

    Thanks, I'll look into avast; I wanted a free AV for virtual machines.
    Personally, I would recommand f-prot. Small footprint and it saved me and friends many times.
    I tried AVG, but that thing is big, complex and annoying.

    I wonder what kind of crap this will install on computers.... remember Sony ?

    Why not ? You think your email didn't travel in plaintext across the internet to reach you ?

  12. Re:Linux development model? on Why Vista Took So Long · · Score: 5, Funny

    To borrow a quote from Shigeru Miyamoto, "A delayed game is eventually good, a bad game is bad forever." I think that applies to pretty much any software project, though of course "good" is relative to the user.Wow, Duke Nukem Forever ® is sooo going to be good !!!

  13. Wrong Title on Internet Only 1% Porn · · Score: 1

    Maybe the web is 1% pr0n, but the Internet is not only the web; How much pr0n in % there is on bittorrent, ftp sites and Usenet ?

  16. I Respect myspace; You should on Walmart Tries to Emulate MySpace · · Score: 1

    I respect myspace, and you should !

    As someone said on fark.com (I'm sorry, I can't find a link to the comment), the people at myspace
    created a site where all the teenagers can create their stupid unreadable and ugly web pages, with
    all the background music they want. And you know what ? Its all in the same place. Myspace.

    At least, you only need to know where *not* to browse, and the rest of the internet is still... well
    not that bad, after all. ;-)

  17. Re:Web 2.0 is about experience not implementation on Web 2.0 As A New Wave of Innovation? · · Score: 1

    Nice, another description of what Web "2.0" is.

    > It would be typical with a forum full of engineers to simply pass up web 2.0 as some marketing buzzword

    Well you know, its engineers and "enginners" that make up the things that you use everyday; *Not* marketing people.
    Unless you work for Apple ;-)

    >As a result, intelligent design becomes a "theory of the gaps,"

    Actually, you can't even use the word Theory, since "lntelligent design" cannot be proven true or false... Ever.

    So in my book, "lntelligent design" is Nothing. Not even worth this post :-)

  23. Re:Gmail question on Yahoo! Mail Superior to Gmail ? · · Score: 1

    You could try to set a "skip inbox" in your filter; So your labelled emails won't show up in your inbox...

  24. Re:Great! on Firefox 1.0.7 Released · · Score: 2, Informative

    No this is not a "fact" of life. The problem here is that when the page is GONE, the memory is not released. If I open a big graphic file, and then close the tab, I expect to see the memory released, not LOST.

    My god, this post is as useless as your comment...
