  1. Re:Wait until.. on DoS Attacks Persisting, On The Rise · · Score: 1

    Brilliant Digital's Altnet (sp?).
    Need I say more?

  2. Repeat on Another Go At Making Spam Cost Money · · Score: 2, Informative

    This is a repeat. It hasn't been more than a month since this was last on Slashdot.

  3. Re:monoculture on Microsoft: Trust and Antitrust · · Score: 1

    That math doesn't quite work out. The "five times as likely" part doesn't quite hold up. Perhaps someone could help me understand.

    To fulfill "There should be five giant strong architectures out there that can emulate each other," here are
    5 CPU architectures we could use: PowerPC, MIPS, Alpha AXP, UltraSPARC, and x86
    5 OS architectures we could use: Windows, Linux, *BSD (including Mac OS X), QNX, and BeOS.

  4. Re:MicroSoft is much better at useless effort on Microsoft: Trust and Antitrust · · Score: 1

    I think he's making a joke that Microsoft has fixed more bugs than any OSS project simply because they had more to fix.

  5. Re:just for comparison on Cray's New Solid State Storage · · Score: 1

    If the transfer rate is 80 GB/sec and the capacity is 224 GB, how can 224 GB hold only 27 copies of the human genome while 80 GB/sec be enough speed to relay the same data 100 times a sec?
    I figure someone got the numbers backwards. They meant to say that the thing holds 100 copies of the human genome and relays 27 copies per second.

  6. Re:As a former OS/2 user... on Virtual PC for OS/2 released · · Score: 1

    Last time I was in an Ingles Supermarket, I saw a cash register that had apparently dropped out of the register software. I was surprised to see that the OS present was OS/2. It's still in use in the US too.

  7. Re:Somebody needs to get that dude laid. on GameBoy Web Server · · Score: 1

    'nuff said.

    But while someone's getting him laid, why not get me laid too? :-)

  8. Re:Front page display of the story on Living on Internet Time... Like Thomas Edison Did · · Score: 1

    It was ontopic at the time --- the editor forgot to close the tag when he posted the story. That has to do with the story, meaning it is ON TOPIC. I don't give a flying fsck how much of a stretch my claim is. It's technically correct, so STFU and mod me back up to 1.

    Oh, and by the way, I'm in a bad mood.

  9. Re:But why? on GameBoy Web Server · · Score: 1

    Correction: That last should be *returns to TI-GCC* instead of *disappears into darkness*. I'm sorry for any confusion this might have caused.

  10. Re:But why? on GameBoy Web Server · · Score: 3, Funny

    TI-89.....
    *thinks*
    *laughs evily*
    *disappears into darkness*

  11. Re:something to consider? on When Looks Can Kill · · Score: 1

    The only way either of those would happen involves 2 countries eventually glowing in the dark, if you get my drift.

  12. Front page display of the story on Living on Internet Time... Like Thomas Edison Did · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Italics are busted again.

  13. File Format on Encoding DNA as Music for Copyrighting? · · Score: 1

    What file format would they use?
    Ogg Vorbis? MP3? Wave?

  14. Re:*cringe* on Slashback: Spolsky, Mandrake, Geography · · Score: 1

    It's up to George Lucas. If he jumps to digital without something like the CBDTPA, we're safe. He's driven Hollywood before and I think he can do it again.

  15. Re:Before it happens... on Apple Wants Your Input · · Score: 1

    Microsoft already allows you to turn double clicking off in Windows Explorer. It's been there since Active Desktop was made available for Windows 95.

  16. Blatant Lie In the Product Name itself on Most Outrageous Vendor Lie Ever Told? · · Score: 5, Funny
    Microsoft Works

    I know it's overused, but hey it's valid.

  17. Re:It *could* be Evolution by Natural Selection on Thumbs Are the New Fingers for GameBoy Youth · · Score: 1

    Explain to me how being able to play console games well improves one's chances of procreation. My personal experience seems to dictate that the exact opposite is true --- being able to play console games better decreases one's chance of procreation.

  18. Re:NEGATIVE FEEDBACK... on Spam Increases Make Things Tough For Companies · · Score: 1

    So you're advocating developing an e-mail version of the Slashdot Effect?
    Sounds good. Let's do it.

  19. Re:Mis-read that :-) on Laser HUD Projected on Retina · · Score: 1

    Macrovision????
    Nooooooooo!!!!
    Copy-protected eyes! The MPAA has gone too far. I don't want to pay to have to descramble my own vision.

  20. Re:Limited resources on No More Unrestricted Internet At Work · · Score: 1

    I take it then that the dorms do not have any sort of internet connection. If they do and you're blocking the MUDs further upstream then shame on you. If they don't (the public machines are the only connected ones) then block away.

  21. Re:I'm confused by it all... on IBM 120GXP Revisited · · Score: 1

    I actually sleep BETTER when my PC is on. I have a harder time going to sleep when the room is too quiet.

  22. OS/2 subsystem for NT on The Sad Parable of OS/2 · · Score: 1

    Did the OS/2 subsystem for Windows NT/2000/XP have any role in killing OS/2?

  23. File Names on Next Windows to Have New Filesystem · · Score: 1

    Why do we need all these fancy database tricks? Why doesn't Microsoft just redefine the NTFS spec to support 512-character file names?
    Why don't people simply use nice, descriptive names when they're naming the files?
    As far as full-content searching goes, who needs it? If you name a file well, then odds are that you can do a pretty fscking good job guessing or remembering what's in it.

    Yes, I know this might get hit as flamebait, but do give my questions some serious thought first.
    Please.

  24. Re:good point on Next Windows to Have New Filesystem · · Score: 1

    Instead of having to right click and choose properties and choose the tab and look, how about simply renaming the file?

  25. Re:Searching by content on Next Windows to Have New Filesystem · · Score: 1

    I don't understand why SEARCHING is so important. Just be organized and you don't NEED to search. I micromanage and custom organize every aspect of my HDD and as a result I know where eveything is. I don't NEED any fancy searching tools.

    Just my $0.02
