  1. IPv6 was also designed to support interplanetary on IPv4 vs IPv6: The Road Ahead · · Score: 1

    ... connections, by allowing longer ping times. So much for multiplayer gaming. But it is a more sound idea than every ISP having only one IP address and running NAT.

  2. Re:Meaningless nomenclatural dispute on Giant Asteroid Breaks 200 Year Old Record · · Score: 1

    Given: There are 9 planets
    Any object with mass greater than Pluto is a planet.
    Then: The earth's or one of jupiter's moons is the 9th planet

  3. Re:Just boot the kernel directly! on Booting A PIII System In .8 Seconds · · Score: 1

    Just put a loader part of the kernel there the rest at another address.

  4. It would just take 10 years for the courts... on Aussie ISP Scans Downloads For Copyright Violation · · Score: 1

    ... to decide that it was illegal and in the mean time [insert large corperation/government agancy here] would continue eavesdropping and suing/arresting people. Got to love the US justice system.

  5. Tyan has 2 boards out on LinuxHardware.org Has Linux DDR Shootout · · Score: 1

    One is a "server board" has 2x 3com NICs and SCSI EATX.($450) The other doesn't have anything special on it (besides the second socket-A) and runs about $230.

  6. I wouldn't mind... on Excite@Home May Have To Call It Quits · · Score: 1

    ATT gave out friends billing info including credit card info, all traffic runs through San Jose, CA (at least for those of us in the Seattle area), and they only have 128kb upstream.

  7. Re:Help, I can't keep up!!! on 2.4.9 Kernel Released · · Score: 1

    Well the last one was escaped* on the 10th!

  8. Help, I can't keep up!!! on 2.4.9 Kernel Released · · Score: 1

    I was just able to download 2.4.8 yesterday. Howmany kernel this week?

  9. I'd love to know just how many hits on Help Stress Test The New Slashdot · · Score: 1

    Well they asked for it, I'd love to know the hits per/ms. I lanched 10 wgets at once and it was sluggish was getting 404 errors.

  10. What about ping time? on Taming the Web · · Score: 1

    While IPv6 does support long ping times, I don't thing your people would put up 0.238745 s to there ping time per hop!

  11. I'll 2nd that. on What's A Good Starter Linux distro? · · Score: 1

    I have been using linux about 2 years, 1st your w/ RH/Mandrake/OpenLinux1.3 etc, last your w/ slack. Everything you learn under in can be applied to other distros.

  12. Great! on "For Use on Free Operating Systems, Only!" · · Score: 1

    I think its a great idea, if people are willing to use a commecal OS they should be willing to pay an arm and a leg for every app. Now they just need to market the same product for Windows and charge the "revinue maximizing price" of $89.

  13. Re:Where's the link? on Apple Dropping CRTs for LCDs · · Score: 3

    Here is a link.

  14. Correction: Default OS on Apple Dropping CRTs for LCDs · · Score: 4

    Just read this on yahoo. Mac OS 9 is the default but OS X is loaded also.

  15. But Microsoft will decide to invent their own... on New Mail RFCs Released · · Score: 1

    But Microsoft will decide to invent their own standard that they say is better but and not support the new standard. This way _everyone_ will have to have a Windows machine to send email to other people with Windows machines. Great way to spread, take advadage of your monopoly to force a new propritaty standard on everyone.
    When do you think it will stop?

  16. Re:As long as you do it correctly... on The Plusses And Perils of Overclocking · · Score: 1

    I have never seen an unstable P-II 66Mhz FSB and I have seen a lot. There is no need to overclock, just "misclock" Run a celeron 400 on a BX board at 100mhz x 4 not 66mhz x 6. Never overclock a chipset the 1st thing to go is the HD contoller you endup currupting your HD and haveing to reload. At least in my experance. Just keep your system cool and dont use unstable componets.

  17. Who needs DoS attacks when we have the /. affect on Making Small Change · · Score: 1

    We really should notify people before we make posts about their websites, so they can get an extra T1 line for the next 4 hours.
