  1. Re:Doesn't work for me on New Vulnerability Affects All Browsers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I don't see how this could be that big an issue either... for a site to be able to be hijacked, the pop-up it would have to be a site already sponsored by Citibank or whoever to start with.

  2. Replace your pirated linux with pirated windows... on Intel Helping Asia to Use Linux · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...So you can replace it with genuine pirated windows straight from Microsoft or well sue! We mean it!!!

    ...If java is really just as bad as ActiveX

  5. Re:LOL on Worm Exploit Distributed by Advertising Network · · Score: 1

    No I'm implying that firefox has twice the development range since it runs on mulitple platforms and therefore has the potential to have at least twice the user base relatively speaking. OS X Linux BSD Windows... etc. IE runs on one fucking platform and has to account for one OSes vunerablilites. Programmers of Firefox have to account for more than IE programmers since it's ultimately the OS that's being exploited. But nice 1337 there son.... keep it up, you'll be a hax0r in no time.

    I work for IBM ebusiness webhosting so I'm well aware of what the issues are with current browsers since I paid to... and when people like you start talking out their ass. You can't even give a url? You get the big "yeah dude" of the day... congrats.

  7. Re:LOL on Worm Exploit Distributed by Advertising Network · · Score: 1

    Would you care to list those or do you just expect us to believe you? Firefox is available on just about every distro you could imagine, so the idea that there was been more patching could simply reflect the fact it has a twice as big user base. I doubt the patching could possible be any worse as far as security holes are concerned. You really think Firefox could possibly be a bigger security issue than IE? ActiveX alone covers that.

  9. Psychological vs physical on Internet Porn More Addictive Than Crack, Senate Told · · Score: 1

    I don't think porn will ever make people loose teeth and degrade their health. The addiction to crack can be both extremely physical and psychological where as porn is more psychological. Easier now to get to for children yes, but much more easy to correct as well.

    Lol! Please explain how smp is not good for Pro work? I don't know any other pro level audio applications that are not smp aware...

  12. SMP support? on Wired: Pro-Level, GPL'd Audio Editing For Linux · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Being both Linux and "pro level" I would imagine this would be a no brainer but I don't see it in the documentation...?

  13. Itanium is Linux bound on Microsoft Dropping Itanium Support For Clusters · · Score: 5, Interesting

    The only place I see the Itaniums making it anywhere is SGI. They're using them for all their supercomputers running linux. Let's hope they keep the mips line... just in case ;)

  14. Next up your Hacker test! on IT Literacy Test · · Score: 2, Funny

    Yeah ok whatever... IT today is tomorrows trash. There is no test for an industry that moves this fast. You either get it or you don't What's next? A hacker test? How are you going to test that? The person that steals the answers first from the school files gets the highest grade?

  17. What are you using it for? on Experiences w/ Software RAID 5 Under Linux? · · Score: 1

    RAID 5... for what? How is it going to be connected to your other computers? Do you have 64bit pci? Total system throughput and network latency will be other issues you'll need to account for. I've used SuSE software raid and OS X software raid... OS X is running like a champ but SuSE's array failed after about a month or so. Not sure if it was a software issue but I'm pretty sure it was. If it's for something like serving mp3s or small files it will probably work just fine but if you're going to be streaming video other than anything above mpeg-2 you should invest in a nice low-end fibre channel solution and save the cpu for something else.

    Yes.

  19. SuSE and Red Hat for me... on What Your Choice of Linux Distro Says about You · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Everybody's like Gentoo is so leet! Whatever... the installs I do are way too complex with RAID arrays and LVD for me to sit around and do every little thing from a fscking command line... that and I don't have 2 days to compile from source. They should really make a graphical installer (well they actually do but it's only half the install and it's stage3 so what's the point?)

  20. Re:No such thing as bad news. on Dell Teams Up With SUSE · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I would say as long as Novell development stays opensource as much as possible. After all the are porting their products to Linux.

  21. Re:Bad news for Red Hat... on Dell Teams Up With SUSE · · Score: 1

    Yes that was meant as a secondary "follow through"... *possibly* going in to the workstation market. SuSE is to an extent more friendly, in my opinion, to the enduser... which could easily play in to the workstation market. 9.1 Pro offers a "ton" of desktop enviornments... KDE, GNOME, Windowmaker (my fav)...etc

  22. Bad news for Red Hat... on Dell Teams Up With SUSE · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Now that novell has bought SuSE, major fundage means major comp now for Red Hat. Personally I think SuSE is more user friendly than Red Hat is now... with YAST playing a major role in that. Easy to configure, even for an end user to get a basic server up and running or whatever else. I see this hittin the lowend workstation level big time as well since most of the hardware cerifications Red Hat has SuSE has too (too a point).

  25. The POWER 5 series on If Windows Came to PPC, Would You Switch? · · Score: 1
    I read somewhere that the virtual machines ran on the POWER 5 would be able to host windows vm's along with AIX, Linux...etc


    I'm not too sure how that will work given the new power architecture but I did read that (I work for IBM)


    I've been looking everywhere for more on the windows virtualization since then and have not found anything on it... perhaps a fellow /.'er knows?
