  1. Same rules apply on Website Checkout Glitches: Two Very Different Corporate Responses · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If a brick and mortar left a sign up in their windows advertising X percent off consumers would expect it. Just because they are online doesn't give them a pass for sloppy practices.

  2. Philly's Wireless on Designing a Municipal Wireless Service? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, hope it goes great. As I understand, this masterpiece of wireless wonder comes at the expense of the rest of the state. Under the agreement, IIRC this will be the ONLY community wireless project for PA. Of course, I'm not to sure Edward Rendell really know's that the surronding area of Philly is also PA. It just makes me wonder how many checks from Verizon and Comcast are in Mr. Rendells back pocket. That's right, I'm bitter.

  3. Re: Spell check! on RSS Feeds For Job Listings - Value or Waste? · · Score: 1

    I believe this has come up before, anything in quotes is actual posting from the user. So if you can't spell, don't post and make yourself look like an idgit. Hopefully his boss doesn't frequent /.

  4. Re:No-brainer on Making Money Using Open Source Software? · · Score: 0, Troll

    Yes, but in defense of the BlueCurve.... IT SUCKS!

  5. Re:Rediculous on Symantec Patents Multiple File Area Virus Scanning · · Score: 1

    Very true, didn't some man in the U.S. patent swinging in a sideways motion while kicking his feet? Now read that once more and tell me what is wrong with the system!

  6. The French? on France National Library Attacks Google Book Effort · · Score: 1

    Oh why don't they just cry about it.

  7. Re:Hands Across America on NTT's Cool - Human Area Networking Technology · · Score: 1

    YES, FLESHNET

  8. I am taking bets now on Microsoft Anti-Spyware to Be Free of Charge · · Score: 1

    I am willing to bet that the final version, or a near future upgrade will be itself what it is trying to detect. Read the EULA carefully. Of course, I have nothing to back this up with, except my own suspicions of Microsoft. But they have been going on about the pirating factor a lot lately. Alright so I'm paranoid.

  9. Amercia's weakness against Internet attacks... on Former CIA Head Calls for Limiting Access to the Internet · · Score: 1

    I'm sorry to say it, but it's our own fault. I see and hear everywhere that the 'ol US of A is a third world country when it comes to this type of technology. We have states that restrict any type of Internet access competition, by law. Attitudes like this will ultimately sink the country, technology wise. We need to wake up, and quick, before we are left behind.

  10. Re:That's the point on Fedora Core Release 3 Released · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Very cheap, considering Micro$oft is still releasing BETA versions of software for about 150 bucks a pop.

  11. Hard Drugs on Appreciating Your Stressful IT Job? · · Score: 1

    A nice dose of herion always soothes the nerves, especially on a Monday morning. Or maybe just a stroll through the park, whatever works for the individual. But, all joking aside, a very good sense of humor really helps you through even the most stressful of days.
