  1. Re:OpenOffice/StarOffice on Microsoft takes on PDF · · Score: 2
    She is definately not dumb. Not very computer savvy either. Just wants things to work quick, rather than have to export to the wrong fileformat (by printing to a printer that doesn't even exsist) and than changing that. So she'll use Adobe writer and import a word file. But she would have wanted the composing and coverting in one application.

    Our hiring qualifications are more tuned to organising stuff that at converting fileformats into eachother.

    ehr, how do you do that? just looked, couldn't find it, not even in help, unless you take a ps-file and convert that to pdf. That would be to complicated to tell my secretary however.

    This is not a flame, you can mod me down if you want to, but please also answer the question. That would be very helpfull to me

  3. Or post to slashdot... on Curious Yellow, Superworm · · Score: 4, Funny

    It could also submit every computer it couldn't infect as containing something of interest to the slashdot community. Who needs a ddos attack?

    Sorry, no. study has just started and the B.SC. is in dutch. M.Sc. will be in english later, and so will the site be.

    Maybe you could check the "Master of Industrial Ecology" site. Same universities, but that's an english mastercourse... One of its contributiors is the CML (Centre for Environmental Studies) in Leiden

    You can not determine an error rate untill you have at least 2 errors. More measurements would be a lot better of course. They have none in 10.000. Could still be a very good errorrate...

  6. Re:Hysterical rubbish on New RedHat Kernel Patch Illegal to Explain to U.S. Users · · Score: 2

    So, we correctly defined overly simplistic logic to be ludicrously tortured logic.

  7. Re:But whois thefreeworld.net? on New RedHat Kernel Patch Illegal to Explain to U.S. Users · · Score: 2, Funny

    Isn't everywhere outside Europe the U.S.? Sometimes sure seems so, since many americans seem to think there are only two countries: U.S. and "other", often "Europe"

  8. Re:"Sol" on New Frozen World Found Beyond Pluto · · Score: 2

    I thought it was "de zon", "le soleil" or "die Sonne". Maybe "Sol" has something to do with a reference which surpasses local language?

  9. Re:Sounds familiar, but with more applications... on Exchange Email Addresses With A Handshake · · Score: 1

    A friend of mine has this camera-phone. It actually does things very OK, and it is easy to have a picture pop up as the phone rings. Even more so after a night out, where you may have exchanged phonenumbers and you can't recall what she looks like...

  10. Where does it connect to the body?? on Exchange Email Addresses With A Handshake · · Score: 2
    I know the nipple would be the most intuitive interface, but not all people like those clamps!

    and what's new anyway: The technology could allow data communications through [...], switches, [...]

    Like datacommunication could do without switches now anyway...

  11. Time spent on Tiny Integrated Home Theater PC w/Display · · Score: 2
    Not only did he build the mod, he also replied to almost every single post!!!

    Must be a slashdot record for the highest percentage of posts on a single story...

    Why did I read "an annonymous closed source"?

    Damn! You beat me to it. I was just checking if someone mentioned it already... :-) (punctuation mistake, i guess...)

  15. Re:Self-Cleaning Dishes on Self-Cleaning Glass · · Score: 2
    Funny, I assumed just the opposite thing.

    I used to just clean a dish when I needed one. Now my girlfriend makes me do do the dishes after I used them. The horror!

  16. Re:Green Lantern ? on Marvel Goes MMPORG · · Score: 1

    As was stated surprisingly correct by the editor...

  17. Re:E-mail addresses on The "Find Your Old BBS Buddies" Database · · Score: 2, Informative

    It exists. I don't know the name anymore, but my girlfriend uses it for her old university mail, hoping one of her foreign friends will try it once more, since she lost their mailadresses (and communicatuion from the netherlands to mexico by other means is tricky when people have moved).

  18. Re:Prepare to wait... on HOWTO: Spend A Billion Dollars · · Score: 1

    Indeed. You, Sir, are a genius (just do the nature/nuture thing right though...)

    Please supply the exact same conditions your girlfriend had growing up, since you can never be sure what was nature and wat was nurture...

    I'm gonna start reviewing CD's. Can't make a living with my reviews, but sure can use the extra income from the unglued diskmans I sell.

    I can't see it on the movie! Maybe that is because the movieserver is slashdotted.
