  1. 6th and Jefferson in the Ville on Botnet Business Model Comes to Life · · Score: 1

    If I was gonna score a little dope I definitely wouldn't choose that location in Louisville, KY. That is home to the Metro Corrections facility. Not that hospitable of a place.

  2. Re:Windows XP still uses 8.3 format on Linux/Mac/Windows File Name Friction · · Score: 1

    C:\Program Files\Symantec\LiveUpdate\LuComServer.exe

  3. Re:Not being a chemist on Hydrogen Fuel Balls from a Gas Pump? · · Score: 2, Informative

    The rare metals in catalytic convertors are being recycled. Most people dont realize that when the cc's are replaced or cut off the exhaust the exhaust specialist is making a small fortune from recycling these convertors. It has been my experience that 4 cylinder GM products bring the most cash at the local scrap yard, approx $65 USD per convertor.

  4. Re:**raises hand** on Mac OS X Kernel Source Now Closed · · Score: 1

    Maybe he dosen't record music or edit movies.

  5. Re:This is getting old on Microsoft May Delay Windows Vista Again · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure what you expect in terms of system performace, but I use and have used for several years a 1.4GHz P4 w/384MB of Rambus (not cheap) RAM. It has worked well for the tasks at hand and yes I can use several applications at the same time. (Firefox, GAIM, XChat, WMP10, and AVG Free currently)

  6. just try to use torrents please on Ubuntu 6.06 'Dapper Drake' Beta Available · · Score: 1

    Sure the torrents are great 4kb/sec down 35kb/sec up. Maybe it will finish before the next release.

  7. Re:Failure rate on Petabyte Storage Array · · Score: 1

    That probably small potatoes compared to the electric bill.

  8. Re:one time, for security's sake on Has Corporate Info Security Gotten Out of Hand? · · Score: 1

    Obviously you have never held a job

  9. Re:Preferentially? on What is the Best Firewall for Servers? · · Score: 1

    For Windows? A seamless, 3' thick rebar-reinforced cement vault is preferential. It's easiest to add the machine prior to pouring the cement, I've found.

    You should probably add a fine (sand) and course (gravel or crushed stone) aggregrate to your cement and build a concrete vault.

  10. Slashdot not renedered correctly on Firefox on Firefox Continues Gains against IE · · Score: 1

    Lately I've noticed /. isnt rendered correctly when using firefox. The sides seem to overlap the text in the middle. And I've also found that after navigating /. with IE that IE stops responding to all websites until I exit all IE windows and restart it. Is this just buggy /. that we've alll come to know and love?

  11. Time to move on on FBI's New Info-Sharing Software Project Fails · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Sometimes it best to scrap a software project and take the lessons learned from the failure to a new project. As long as knowledge was gained about why the project failed then not all was lost.

  12. Re:Nextel and the art of communication on Sprint Close to Buying Nextel · · Score: 1

    What is this I'm guilty of?

  13. Re:some very good points on Linux Desktop Myths Examined · · Score: 1

    What sysadmin in his right mind would attempt such a project in the middle of a buisness trip?

  14. Re:Roots on Windows aren't as l337 on Windows Rootkits · · Score: 2, Informative

  15. Re:Not all terminal emulators were susceptible on Getting Hacked Through Your Terminal · · Score: 1

    Is that a terminal and not an emulator

  16. Call it what you may on Symantec Patents Virus Updates · · Score: 1

    What if a worm happens to get root and then modifies scripts to rm -rf * during the next reboot? You may call it a worm but I might call it a virus.

  17. Re:Oh so what. on Cops Bust Starcraft Clan · · Score: 1
    If you are living on someones property, then the owner of that property is perfectly entitled to search you and your property, and to interview you.

    Just because I reside on someones property does not entitle them to search my property and damn sure does not give them the right to search me. You may need to read your states landlord/tenant laws before you tell me what people can and can't do on thier property.
