  1. Cool then on Virtual Keyboard a Reality · · Score: 1

    With a keyboard like that, spilling coke on it won't be a terrific problem anymore :)

  2. Re:I thought my 16x burner was fast... on New, Flexible CDs Arrive · · Score: 1
    "Producing a flexCD also only takes .3 seconds, less than that of a normal CD."

    This means it takes .3 sec to *make* the plastic thing, not to burn data on it.

  3. Re:GPS Dog Collar? on GPS Meets Agriculture for Precision Farming · · Score: 2, Funny

    Satisfied, he'll glance around his burgeoning field. "But wait," he wonders, suddenly puzzled, "where did my dog go?" Fingers snap. "I must've forgot his GPS collar again!"

    GPS jewels could be useful for (say) your girlfriend. Imagine, you go with her to the shopping center and suddenly you realize that she's gone somewhere else while you were looking at (say) computer games. Hence, you fire up your GPS reciver and trace your girlfriend in the shopping center :)

  4. Re:Whats next... Lego? on Iris Indigo Case Mod · · Score: 1

    Look at Wang191's post on this page as well as his homepage. Awesome Lego case mod !

  5. Another article on NVIDIA Unveils (And Tom's Reviews) The GeForce4 · · Score: 5, Interesting
    There is another article at Anandtech too, it's quite a good read. Contains pictures, benchmarks, etc.

  6. Lawsuits on Microsoft Starts Legal Fight Over Lindows Name · · Score: 2, Interesting

    With all that lawsuits from/for Microsoft, mabye we will see a "Microsoft DOJ" soon...

    Speaking on the topic, M$ seems to just sue their "potential competitors", in fact small companies with (for most) great ideas. Theses companies can't afford the costs for the lawsuit and are forced to close. After that, M$ stole a good idea (mabye from that company), put the Microsoft name on it and sell it.

    M$ is going to be everywhere (this is their dream). From PCs to game consoles, telephones, etc. I expect TVs soon (Heh, they should try vacuum cleaner... a good way to suck...). Can we call that "monopoly" ? Will they sue the dictionnaries because there is the words "Windows" and "office" in it ? Do people will wake up when they will live on planet "Windows Earth" ?

  7. Re:AOL CDs on It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Quickies · · Score: 1

    I collect them as well. But I don't care of the cds, every junk cd I can get I'll take it (AOL, bad CD-R, etc.). I want to pin them on a wall to decorate my computer room :)

  8. Re:Mirror, mirror... on Wolfenstein Linux Binaries Available · · Score: 1

    Oops, just figured out that there were spaces in the address. Remove them to download the files, the server is quite fast btw..

  9. Mirror, mirror... on Wolfenstein Linux Binaries Available · · Score: 2, Informative

    I found another mirror, FTP and HTTP. Enjoy it, 'cause WolfMP on Linux is a real killer - I mean it works very well :) I hope the SP part will be avaiable soon !

  10. News, photos & videos on Further Updates On Terrorist Attack · · Score: 1

    Here's what we can see here in Canada. There is a lot of pics and videos in the page, they are all in flash format (videos too). Page is in french but you can see them as well.

    http://www.radio-canada.ca/nouvelles/actualite/a tt entat/indexTemporaire.html

    If you want to watch what we can see from our TV set here, here's the live stream from CBC :

    http://radio.cbc.ca/cbcradio.ram (radio)
    http://www.cbcradio3.com/ram/cbctvlive.ram (TV)

    On this page again, it says that about 300 firemens and 85 policemens are reported missing. At the pentagon, there is about 800 deaths.

  11. Re:This was coming on Further Updates On Terrorist Attack · · Score: 2, Informative

    Are you talking about the Egypt-Air tragedy ? It seems that in that case the pilot wanted to kill himself, there were no terros onboard.

  12. Another picture on More Links And Reports On Terrorist Attacks · · Score: 1
    Another picture, it's the south tower collapsing. http://www.canoe.qc.ca/Topo/topophotodujour.html

    And many things on this page (it's in french though, but you can find some pictures). http://www.cyberpresse.ca/reseau/actualites/0109/a ct_101090013238.html

    I live in Canada and we all see this on almost every TV channel and every radio station since this morning. The images we can see are simply horrific and unthinkable. What scares me most is that it could lead to a WWIII. And I don't want to.

    I and my friends express our sincerest sympathy to the family's victims and all the USA.

  13. Solution for one problem on Apple Moves Again To Squash Look-Alikes · · Score: 1
    Better be careful, they might sue slashdot for using the OS X-like Apple icon.

    Just use a "real" apple. Eat a small part on the right and then photography it !

  14. What about heat ? on Dual Athlon Preview: Linux Kernel Compile Smokes · · Score: 1

    Bah, not a problem ! If the beast releases enough heat, I would use it to heat up my dorm room... :)

  15. Alternatives on Napster Introduces Subscription Charge · · Score: 1
    I think that if people have to pay for the files, I mean big $$$ here, they will look for alternatives - OpenNap for exemple. Or, they can also go on IRC, as many has used to do before Napster... But, this is not everyone who know OpenNap ! Spread the word !! :)

    There is also HTTPs and FTPs, Gnutella... Does anyone know other ways ? Of cource, buy the real CD.. Anyone ?

  16. Mabye... on Microsoft And Sun Settle · · Score: 1
    Mabye it's because M$ will do *their* Java version...

    Oh well..
