  1. Re:Space... on Top 10 Reasons for a Space Program · · Score: 1

    Chairface Chippendale. As I recall, his evil plain was thwarted before he could finish, so the moon only said "CHAI".

  2. Re:same stupid problems on Netscape 7.1 Released · · Score: 1

    Works fine for me as well. I'm using Mozilla Firebird 0.6 nightly build 20030630.

  3. Re:Yeah, It Turns My Wife On. on Windows Rootkits · · Score: 1

    But the complete text would also include punctuation. Clearly, your post is a fabrication.

    I can remember going to those movies as a chile and being 'carried away' by the fantasy and joy they evoked.
    i always preferred going as brazil :)

    Dear Taco,

    Congratulations! We may not always agree with your opinions/story selection/spelling/etc, but none of that is important in the long run. Marriage is one of those things that's truly important, and today we unite to wish you and Kathleen a long and happy life together.

    Love,

    PS- Our wedding present to you is a flaming webserver to warm your hearts, and a massive bill from your ISP for all that extra bandwidth to wipe out your savings.

  7. Re:Now if.... on Browser Wars II: CompuServe Strikes Back · · Score: 1

    i've seen an alleged sneak preview of the next version of office (called office NGO or something else equally as strange) and it's a web service, run totally from within IE. i doubt they'd work too hard to make it compatable with mozilla or opera...

    i'll probably get modded down for not supplying a link. i'll post one when i get home from work..

  8. Re:about the noisy yamaha drives... on Which DVD-Recordable Drives? · · Score: 1

    yeah, had i checked the reviews on the drive before purchasing i would have seen that they (or at least the first batch as you mentioned) had this problem. i thought of returning it, but since i invariably have mp3s or movies or tv playing, it doesn't bother me enough to ship it back to CA..

  9. about the noisy yamaha drives... on Which DVD-Recordable Drives? · · Score: 1

    recently purchased the 16x scsi (i believe 2100S is the model #) and i agree, it is extremely noisy. i sometimes fear the cds will literally be torn apart by the vibration, but they haven't so far, and it's quite fast. i haven't had the first buffer underrun or any other burning error.. well except for when i tried to burn at 16x on cd's only made to handle 8x.

  10. now.. on Review: Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back · · Score: 1

    i'd just like to say, the funniest movie i've seen this summer has to be rat race. the premise may be stupid, but there are a LOT of hilarious setups in this movie. in fact, i'm going to go see it again tonight.

  11. Re:Please everyone on New IE Disables Netscape-style Plug-ins · · Score: 1

    oh don't get me wrong. i love winamp. i use it daily. i just thought it was ironic he would pimp it as a non-ms product, even tho it's owned by a company i consider to be just as bad if not worse (and i'm sure most would agree. or am i?)

    right.. it's AOL :-P

  13. Re:Licensing on Windows Marketing Executive Doug Miller · · Score: 1

    and they charge you for a new key.. if you upgrade the mobo ram and chip all at once, which is VERY common, then you have to pay for a new license.

  14. Re:Press time? on Continuing Security Concerns at DoubleClick · · Score: 1

    as far as i know, press time means whenever the story was (in printed media) sent off to the presses, as far as web media goes it means whenever the story was submitted. so saying someone hadn't responded by press time means he hadn't heard from them before he submitted the story.

  17. Re:Where is the dual mother board ?? on AMD Challenges P4 With 1.33Ghz · · Score: 1

    it's on the front page, or at least it was last time i looked.. the tyan.com front page has an image in the top right corner that says Tyans S2567 thunder is here. click that.

  18. Re:What about a slightly different name? on Don't Trust Code Signed by 'Microsoft Corporation' · · Score: 2

    not exactly what you mean, but consider this case of wal-mart v. walsucks and walmart puerto rico.. this focuses on trademark as it applies to domain registration and not so much the content of the company but i think it's relevant..

    oh what's this? a quick visit to http://www.amsterdam.nl/ just shut you up. try to research your flames a little better.

  24. Re:New TLD's on ICANN Trying To Speed Up · · Score: 1

    the only problem i see with that is the XXX in reality was stolen by the porn industry, it is actually Amsterdam's official symbol. i was oblivious to this up until a few months ago when i went there, and was amazed to see XXX on the poles lining the streets.
