  1. artical is really about on lowercase music · · Score: 1

    That's funny, when I read the article I got the feeling it was more about their website design than the music.

  2. Re:SMB on A Reader Visit to the "Game On" Computer Games Exhibit · · Score: 1

    I'm with you. I beat the sequels without breaking a sweat but I can't finish the original.

  3. Re:online banking on Personal Finance Software for Unix? · · Score: 1

    AC: I'm in Oregon.
    JDeFontes: real cute

  4. online banking on Personal Finance Software for Unix? · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Would somebody please cleanly reverse engineer Quicken's online banking??? Bank of America's online banking is Quicken based, instead of the more logical choice secure html.

  5. Re:Question? on Benchmarking Intel C++ 6.0 to GNU g++ 3.0.4 · · Score: 1

    It calls a super-secret hardware random number generator present only in Intel(tm) Pentium(r) 4 Aliens, I mean Processors.

  6. oh puhleaze on Multi-head Meets the Laptop · · Score: 5, Insightful

    >The 2-VU operates in the Microsoft Windows 2000 and XP® environments and features the Adobe Acrobat Reader®. This strategy avoids the problems of a propriety, closed environment while maintaining the file integrity offered through these state-of-the-art digital rights management platforms.

    Win2k and Acrobat. Could this thing be any MORE proprietary and closed???

  8. Steven Levy is the man on Silicon Valley Rebirth? · · Score: 1

    He's my favorite tech writer, thanks in no small part to his hacker love story "Hackers" which I've read a dozen times. This is a man who knows his tech roots. It's only fitting that he cover the Woz.

  9. automagic on Techie, Wrench-head, or Both? · · Score: 1

    I'm a madman when it comes to the electrical system, you can't keep me down. But the extent of my mechanical skills is changing big chunky parts like alternators and cv-joints. I don't even change my own oil.
    But I defrag my own hard drives!

  10. cuz on MS Office for OSX? Why not for Unix as Well? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Because MS owns a nice chunk of Apple, it's in their best interest. We all know how MS feels about Linux.

  11. INSECURE on Pictorial Passwords · · Score: 1

    Anybody within viewing distance can watch you enter your password!

    At least with typing your fingers obscure the keys, and most people can type their passwords fast enough to make it hard to see.

  12. great on Atari 2600 Lord of the Rings Discovered · · Score: 1, Redundant

    They must be serving off an Atari cuz they're already slashdotted. :(

    Now all they have to do is increase the intensity and they've beaten us to Strategic Defense Initiative.

  17. Wargames on Pre-1994 Reference to e-Commerce? · · Score: 1

    Not a full fledged purchase, but Broderick and Sheady reserved airline tickets online and got immediate confirmation. 1983.

  18. Re:Behind my times, I guess on Wil Wheaton Responds to your Questions. · · Score: 0

    Shut up, Wesley!

  19. DC-LINUX on Gadgets With Linux Inside · · Score: 1

    For cryin out loud, they have the DC-Linux Howto artical linked in the sidebar, but Dreamcast isn't even in their list of Linux devices! Oh the humanity.

  20. Re:Mindrover on Learning Java Through Violence · · Score: 1

    Back in the 80's we called that program "Rocky's Boots".

  21. nice! on Learning Java Through Violence · · Score: 2

    This sounds tons more fun than that lame ass Karel the Robot baloney we had to go through in high school programming class. Forget the steeplechase, code up a deathchase!!!

  22. Ruggedize this on A Few Baaaaaad Apples · · Score: 1

    I keep my laptop in an aluminum gun/camera case. Custom carved foam. Very rugged, easy, cheap.

    Dude, 802.11b IS a guerilla network... I wonder which would make a better guerilla network, STRIP or WiFi? 128kbps v 11mbps 900mhz band v 2.4ghz band 1mi range v 5-???mi range clunky box v sleek pcmcia STRIP protocol v ethernet protocol

  25. allegro on Linux Game Programming · · Score: 3

    I'm still waiting for the Allegro C/C++ games library to be included in a major distro. It's in version 3.9.37 now, with 4.0 just around the corner. It's a wonderfully solid and complete gaming library. Zero code changes needed to compile games on numerous platforms. Once I tried this library I never went back.
