  1. Re:Idea Patents Absurd on Patents for the Little People? · · Score: 1

    It's new technology.

    ...like it is

  3. Re:But memory isn't the bottleneck anymore, is it? on An Overview of Quad Band Memory · · Score: 1

    It's JUST a benchmark.

  4. Re:Phase Shifting RAM? on An Overview of Quad Band Memory · · Score: 1

    No no, Dilithium crystals that ALSO phase shift!

    Maybe we could also ask them how the heisenberg compensator works?

  5. Re:We all knew this was going to happen on Microsoft to Hire Xbox Hackers? · · Score: 1

    That's what he just said.

    Redundant?

    You're crazy.

  7. Re:I thought they got cancelled? on Pig-to-Human Transplants On Their Way · · Score: 1

    that article to which you refer talks about the project being cancelled.

    You can infer, therefore, that any change from that story would be "news" (root word "new". See "New developments")

  8. Re:Just wait till the next version of PULSE on Slashback: Arch, Bubbles, Keystrokes · · Score: 1


    Yeah and if you want to view my stats...... Go here GRAPH HISTORY

    Or here: My Main Stats page

    I KICK BUTT!!!

  9. Just wait till the next version of PULSE on Slashback: Arch, Bubbles, Keystrokes · · Score: 1

    The new version will have tons of additions. Graphs, keystroke counts, letter counts, and tracks history. It does all sorts of neat new interesting things. My favorite will be "Pods". I'll create my own little pod of people to compete against. It'll rock. Nirgle for president!!!

  10. Re:My question for Mr. Perens on Bruce Perens Plans On-Stage DMCA Violation · · Score: 1

    You're right. What do we care if someone else gets arrested for this? This is an AMERICAN law after all. The only way we'll defeat it is if someone IN America fights against it. It has no meaning in other countries.

  11. Re:Trial? on Bruce Perens Plans On-Stage DMCA Violation · · Score: 1

    you're right--absolutely right. If he gets arrested, I say take this thing to the supreme court. The first amendment should override the DMCA any day.

  12. Why the sensationalism? on Would an Ad-Sponsored OS/Desktop Work for OSS? · · Score: 1

    Why doesn't an open source project have the same rights to ads as anyone else?

    Why do we make such a big deal about things when an open source project wants to make money? They have to make money somehow, right?

    Seems only rational that people will try whatever means necessary to make some cash. We shouldn't find fault with that.

  13. Re:DEFCON on Security Gatherings for the Little Guys · · Score: 1

    HAHA dude..yeah. What you do is setup a booth and a huge poster saying "DDoS" HERE for FREE!!!

    people come running, and so do the womens. (they're the ones with beef with all the other people)...

    ok so maybe that won't work. Maybe you'll get laughed at. Maybe none of the women would talk to you. Regardless, people will know you. (isn't all publicity good?)

    ..that's how his story should have started.

  16. Potato chips? on Chicken-Feather Chips · · Score: 1



    At first glance I thought some .edu geek figured out a cool way to make potato chips out of feathers.

    Then I got a clue.

  17. The answer lies within........ on Will Instant Messaging Ever Unite? · · Score: 1

    One Word: TRILLIAN.

    Sure, it's usually buggy as hell and takes up all your system memory, but if your main purpose in life is to chat then Trillian is for you

    Deal with it.

    you're in TOkyo with that speed?

  19. Re:Upstream??? on 3 Megabit Cable Modems, Anyone? · · Score: 1

    Most likely no change.

    That's where the expense for the company comes in. That'll be the last thing they'd want to "upgrade".

  20. I know who "Anonymous" is on Anonymous Will Award $200,000 for Xbox Linux · · Score: 1

    ...an employee at Microsoft.

    details are at...hmm, should I? :)

  23. Re:Widespread changes... on Is China's Control of the Internet Slipping? · · Score: 1

    Exactly. Thanks for the example CmdrTaco.

    This is exactly what I'm talking about. There are most likely 200 other ways to subvert the Chinese Government's efforts to control and supress information that might be seen by it's people.

    I had a friend that was in China for about a year. Everytime she tried to use hotmail she got some wierd message on her screen telling her that a 3rd party may be viewing her information (and something hinted it may be the government). She was at some EDU at the time.

    Even still, there's no way any government could possibly restrict all defamous information about it's government from their users' eyes.

    Case in point (above).

  24. Widespread changes... on Is China's Control of the Internet Slipping? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    We all know that China's news institutions (government controlled) will soon be ignored. The Chinese government won't always be able to restrict their users from reading information from the BBC, CNN, and other institutions.

    China's GOV has to face the music. They can't and won't control what their people see on the internet--at least not forever. As more and more people there use the internet, those people will find ways to express their views.

  25. Yay I'M SAFE! on Latest IE Hole Lets Gopher Root You · · Score: 2, Funny

    I don't have a root user...this must mean my M$ machine is perfectly safe!?
