  1. Re:Protecting me from who? on New DRM Scheme To Make Current DVD Players Obsolete · · Score: 1

    This is obviously some strange new meaning of the word "protect" that you weren't previously aware of.

  2. Re:fastmail.fm on Which Webmail Service Do You Use? · · Score: 1

    Hm, fastmail.fm states in their FAQs that they don't offer POP3 access for free accounts. In other respects though I fully suggest their service... :)

  3. Re:Would someone please tell me... on Apple Switches tcsh for bash · · Score: 2, Informative

  4. Re:How can on New iPod Firmware Released · · Score: 1
    Having installed the update, the backlight now seems to fade out slowly when the timre runs out, rather than blinking off suddenly.
    Hmmm, the backlight of my iPod already faded out before I installed the new firmware.
  5. Re:iPod Syncing for Windows? on Apple is Porting iTunes to Windows · · Score: 1
    It adds the iTunes Music Store, and lets you store album art for each song. (I'm not sure WHERE on my hard drive those images are stored)
    As far as I know the picture data is saved in the MP3 file itself as part of the ID3 tag. See for example http://www.id3.org/id3v2.3.0.html#sec4.15.
  6. Re:Questions about karma on Assorted Slashdot Updates · · Score: 1

    "can your karma dwindle (i.e. expire)? "

    I do not think so. I really hope not. However, that FAQ and the Moderator Guidelines are less than illuminating.

    The FAQ says:
    Many people look at the comments they have posted and don't see anything with a negative score, but yet they have negative karma. Remember that slashdot is only showing you a few weeks worth of comments on your user info page: that negative karma could have come from 6 months ago.

    I'd say, this means, that Karma doesn't expire, at least for a long time :)

    hi!

    I think, you get Karma, if a comment of yours is moderated up and if your moderation of a comment is meta-moderated as "Fair".
