    Text files: ANSI Standard coding schemes for letters. Can be read by most any system. Also known as "ASCII format"

    Word files: Binary. Can only be intepreted by it's application or by special applications that can decode word files.

    Didn't we learn the difference between standard objects and proprietary in high school?

    Ahhh the joys of the "PREVIEW" button.

    Too funny.

  4. Formal procedure on CA Appeals Court Upholds Spam Law · · Score: 0

    We need to formulate a standardized procedure for fighting spam. This way, the good citizens aren't trampelled upon by big-wig spammers.

    We need to stand by this law. Fight Spam to the end.

  5. How easy it shall be to "sniff". on First National 802.11b ISP · · Score: 0

    I assume the Government will be grabbing packets out of the sky. I wonder just how easy it is to pickup stray packets from 802.11b. Anyone done extensive research on the subject?

  6. Re:My SPAM i am on Crazy Stats on Spam · · Score: 0

    You must have generated many enemies along the way.

    Someone is signing you up for tons of crud. Unless, of course, you're some porno freak.

    Have a nice day, perv. (Just kidding about the perv thing, or am I?)

  7. Re: Not ME!! on Perception of Linux Among IT Undergrads · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    "Done got my GED. Now Imma go to college and get my learn on."

    Slow down. It was obvious high school was kicking your ass.

    These are the types that seem to flood the "IT" Industry. And we wonder why so many projects fail.

  8. BLAME CANADA on Canadian Researchers Create Supernova In-lab · · Score: 0
    "Canada has done something neat"?

    This is neat? No, it's scary.

    If we all die, I blame Canada.

  9. Re:Easy answer on Opposing Open Source? · · Score: 0

    "We can build a better product than Linux," he said. "There is always something enamoring about thinking you can get something for free."

    That's why I got XP for free.
    It'll end up costing me more in additional hardware to support the Operating system.

    Seems like an evil plot to me.

  10. Re:You can be lazy on any platform. on Is the Unix Community Worried About Worms? · · Score: 0

    I wouldn't have it any other way.

    The minute *nix becomes as easy to install/administer will be the same minute that lame users and worms will also make the leap to these platforms.

    I say keep *nix as cryptic as hell!
    KEEP US FREE!

  11. The Real bottom line on Linux on the Desktop · · Score: 0
    If you read the report you'd see this:
    The Bottom Line This review focused on Linux Red Hat 7.1 from a business user's view and attempted to answer my client's question "Can Linux be used as a replacement for Windows 2000". After an intensive hands-on Linux project lasting several months, I was able to provide my client with a pertinent answer to this question.

    Notice it didn't mention the Feasibility of Actually switching from a Windows-based Operating System to one of Linux.
    I believe this to be an excellent comparision, and it does provide some useful information. One can at least assume, with his amount of content, that it was a well thought out comparison.
    Who cares exactly how accurate he was, he's not flying rockets into space, he's merely making a comparison.

    Again, he didn't address the actual feasibility of using Linux, he just said it was better. Let him define what's better/worse.

  12. Re:No way on Linux on the Desktop · · Score: 0

    you obviously don't read. Linux programs are everywhere. Just google for what you want.

    One warning should be noted: You have to read.

  18. Here's what we need. on DivX;) Goes Legit · · Score: 1

    We need a nerdfarm in our capital buildings to act as lobbyists. Anyone wanna drop out of college and visit the capitol?

    We've got to stop the MPAA/DMCA/RIAA from banding together. Maybe we should ask Mr. Heston to join us--that way these corporate thugs would be scared of us.
    ...I mean, No one's more powerful than Moses-- haha!

  19. A Possible Precedence here? on Record Companies Sued Over Charley Pride CD · · Score: 1, Interesting

    This could be good for those of us who have CD-Burners.

    If some sort of precedence in a court of law is found in this case, it may prevent companies from making this type of CD, or at least provide proper labeling of these "BAD" cd's. I know I'd be able to stay away from these types of CD's.

    Let's hope she wins over corporate America, and help all of us who burn CD's like mad.

    Sometimes I feel like I'm living in a world that doesn't want to get smarter, doesn't want to press harder for knowledge, and doesn't want to know the truth about itself.

    I feel like I'm in a different era of living where government, the leaders and etc are suppressing our own cravings to know more and defy what 'the law' tells us is "correct".
