  1. Re:Netcraft won't confirm that on Tom's Hardware On the Current Stable of Office Apps For Linux · · Score: 1

    True. It was quite an odyssey to get the Realtek 8192SE on my notebook to work reliably.

    Worked fine (despite the need to compile it by hand) until one kernel upgrade lead to kernel panics when switching between eth0 and wlan0.
    I'm glad the newer kernel in Ubuntu 10.04 has corrected that again.

  2. Re:Slashdot is also engaged in this on McAfee To Pay For PC Repairs After Patch Fiasco · · Score: 1

    When in doubt ask the cowboy.

  3. Re:Definately an on McAfee To Pay For PC Repairs After Patch Fiasco · · Score: 1

    Why do I suddenly have to think of Perl? ;)

  4. What??? on How To Grow a Head · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    So there's still a chance for rednecks and other idiots to finally grow a brain?

  5. Re:FB has been quite liberal with users' privacy on Russian Hacker Selling 1.5M Facebook Accounts · · Score: 1

    Post all information as RSA encoded strings?

  6. Re:But he's William Bell! on Leonard Nimoy Retires From Star Trek · · Score: 2, Funny

    Since it's Fringe it's probably something along the lines of Nimoy's appearance actually being a disguise to hide from the easter bunny's army of zombie cows.

  7. Re:German news wants their own iPhone 4G on 4G iPhone Misplacer Invited To Germany For Beer · · Score: 1

    After all, aren't C't and Heise based in Germany?

    Heise is the publishing house and c't & iX are the major magazines in their portfolio.
    With c't being the one for the upper mainstream market whereas iX is clearly aimed at readers in the tech industry.

  8. Re:I'm still wondering ... on McAfee Retracts Lowball Bug Damage Estimate · · Score: 1

    Knowing Windows and McAfee it wouldn't surprise me if some malware had patched that file and while McAfee doesn't trigger on the file's checksum the malware is left untouched as well. j/k

  9. All hail ... on South Park's Episode 201 — the Expurgated Version · · Score: 1

    ... to the Streisand effect.

  10. Why? on Group Calls For Google Antitrust Probe · · Score: 2, Funny

    There's nothing wrong with SkyNe...Google.

  11. Re:Tom Lehrer +1 on 25th Anniversary of Hackers · · Score: 1

    Tom Lehrer?
    Now I can't get that NCIS episode with the Elements Song out of my mind.

  12. Re:FAIL! on This Is Apple's Next iPhone · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Might be time to start taking your meds again.

  13. Re:Ubuntu One ported to Windows and iPhone on Ubuntu One Gets iPhone App For Contact Sync · · Score: 1

    Thanks! Good to know.
    The lack of a Windows client is the reason why I prefer a combination of Dropbox and Truecrypt.

  14. Re:FP on After Discovery's Launch, What's Left For the Shuttle? · · Score: 2, Funny

    True, the iPad probably was the last missing piece.

  15. Re:Pardon my pedanticism... on Grounded Russian Nuclear Sub Photographed With Sonar · · Score: 3, Funny

    I doubt sunk submarines are that active on Chatroulette.

  16. Re:Well it is the same thing.. on Microsoft Sues UK's Datel Over Controllers · · Score: 1

    Thanks!

    The whole design of that product is a bit too close for comfort.
    Still original enough but the purpose is more than obvious.

  17. Re:Okay but what we all want to know is... on Android Copy of Young Woman Unveiled In Japan · · Score: 1

    Good luck getting root access on that one.

  18. Re:Obligatory Chobits reference... on Android Copy of Young Woman Unveiled In Japan · · Score: 1

    I was thinking more along the lines of the jokes in the "pantsu" episode.

  19. nice on YouTube, Now In Text Mode! · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Gotta hand it to them.
    They usually manage to make their joke something entertaining rather than the boring stuff most other sites tend to come up with.

  20. Hmm... on Do Car Safety Problems Come From Outer Space? · · Score: 1

    I'm sure there's a connection to Xenu in there.

  21. Re:Cannonical is just trolling us on Ubuntu Will Switch To Base-10 File Size Units In Future Release · · Score: 1

    Someone calling people stupid when he doesn't seem to know the difference between "your" and "you're" really gives credibility to that comment.

  22. Re:Well, that's a surprise. on Microsoft Adopts SVG For Internet Explorer 9 · · Score: 1

    Embrace, enhance, ...

    They've been down that road many times before.

  23. What? on BC Prof Suggests Young Children Need Less Formal Math, Not More · · Score: 1

    So there's a mythical math month?

  24. Re:wtf? on How the TSA Plans On Inspecting Your Monkey · · Score: 1

    What?
    You mean you don't use service monkeys for the maintenance of your network cabling at work?

    And having a service monkey at hand in case the cockpit has to be rewired could save your life (or more important, your in-flight wi-fi).
