  1. Lip Service in NeXTSTEP on Microsoft's Vision Of Future Workplaces · · Score: 1

    "Video mail and e-mailed voice mail will be just a popular as e-mail or voice mail in five years," Gruver says.

    er, didn't NeXTSTEP's Mail have Lip Service ten-plus years ago?

  2. Re:Get rid of the ad on QuickTime To Get Boost From "More Accurate" Statistics · · Score: 2, Informative

    to get rid of the ad, move up your system time a few years, start quicktime, click the 'later' button [for the last time], and reset your clock. you may need a restart in there.

  3. when i read the title and saw katz... on The End of Cyber BS · · Score: 1

    i thought he was announcing his retirement from slashdot. too bad it wasn't the case.

  4. WO on Java IDEs? · · Score: 1

    apple's web objects via the project builder (which can also build stand-alone java apps), is where its at for me.

  5. stuff stuffit, open up! on Huge security hole in Internet Explorer for MacOS · · Score: 2, Informative

    hate how stuffit mangles your downloads? try openup for everthing except your .sit downloads.
    you have to change the application to launch your .tgz etc. files (via the information panel--apple+I), but once you do that, your set.

  6. GRASStep as opensource port of GRASS GIS on Open Source, GIS and Data Visualization? · · Score: 2
    Check out GRASStep, a new project to bring GRASS GIS to Mac OS X and GNUStep. My motivation behind this project is to get out from under ESRI's bloatware thumb (mind you, I have just about everything they put out at academic price: $600 instead of closer to $30k+ for the sucker on the street).

    I also have some slick cartograms, which make even boring economic/demographic data seem cool.
