  1. Re:Expert naval tactics on Superguns Helped Defeat the Spanish Armada · · Score: 1

    It won't be so awesome once you been binarated.

  2. Re:Electron losses on Dr. Bussard Passes Away, Polywell Fusion Continues · · Score: 1

    Mod parent up...

  3. Re:RIAA defence? on Judge Says RIAA Can't Have Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    Exactly. There is no spoon.

  4. Re:I work 14 hour days most of the time on Online Music Stores Compared · · Score: 1

    You can't assume that some magic elves come to your computer and back up YOUR data while you sleep.

    Wait...why not? What the hell did you do to my magic elves?!

  5. Re:Martian climate change on Mars Orbiter Sees Changes · · Score: 1

    Ramen to that...

  6. Re:The Bad on Summer Internships - The Good, and the Bad? · · Score: 1

    I assume this is the story behind that picture?

    Aren't you worried about calling the boss an idiot reflecting on future job opportunities? [even if you were right...]

  7. Re:A tip on Protecting Your Personal Info While Traveling? · · Score: 1

    Along the same lines...

    If I can view the process list I will hold down a key and watch for any process activity other than the one I am typing in. If I am not mistaken, a keylogger should float to the top...

  8. Re:I'll believe it... on Cold Fusion in a Breadbox Instead of a Bottle · · Score: 1

    Are the elements heavier than Fe then fused during the supernova?

  9. Re:Don't fight the system on The State of Laptop Linux In 2005 · · Score: 1

    On the surface this sounds like an insanely good idea, but what of the innards?

    I was going to write something critical of the idea of OSH here, but I can't think of anything. All of the principles of FLOSS seem to apply to FLOSH.

    Can anyone think of any reason why this wouldn't work?

  10. Re:Internet Explorer technologies for UNIX on Firefox Continues Gains against IE · · Score: 1

    I am not disputing your claim, but what are some examples of this behaviour (besides the UNIX IE)?

  11. Bigzulla on Bugzilla 2.18 Goes Gold · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I found a bug. Where do I report it?

  12. Re:I believe I will have another martini, please. on What Do You Believe Even If You Can't Prove It? · · Score: 1

    That was damned clever.

  13. Re:Cool! Just like form AutoComplete on Google Suggest · · Score: 1

    With such a large list of suggestions available, this seems like it would be great for other applications. Think of typing into any textbox and having popular suggestions pop-up. I can see this being useful for many web forms.

  14. Re:A billion dollars is chump change on NASA Hoping To Create Super X-Prizes · · Score: 1

    100 Nasas...

    By Monday...

  15. Re:It obviously means on Former CIA Head Calls for Limiting Access to the Internet · · Score: 1

    Google Joe Hill

    I agree with you. It's too risky if even one innocent person dies.

  16. Re:Yes on Is Some Software Meant to be Secret? · · Score: 1

    Troll. That is funny too as I have a CS degree.

  17. Re:Scientists (open) vs Businessmen (closed) on Is Some Software Meant to be Secret? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Good point.

    In the same way that religions filtered their "secret" information to the public based on what they wanted them to hear; businesses filter their "secrets" to the public through PR.

    Unfortunately it turns out that the secrets that both of these organizations were/are keeping were/are insidious.

  18. Re:Yes on Is Some Software Meant to be Secret? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Heh. You think that people with CS Degrees know how to code? How cute...

  19. MythTV needs this... on TiVo to Sell Your Fast-Forward Button · · Score: 1

    We can't let MythTV fall behind Tivo in this arena.

    I propose we band together and write a plugin for MythTV so that the common man can have access to commercials whilst skipping commercials.

    Think of it:

    "This commercial skipping segment brought to you by McDonalds."

    Yeah. I agree. This makes no fucking sense.

  20. Re:This really bears repeating... on Bush vs. Kerry on Science · · Score: 1

    You mean one can focus on two seperate things without them interfering with one another? So one would need to seperate their religious mind from their scientific mind.

    They should make up a word for this situation.

  21. Re:OS on Linus Torvalds' Benevolent Dictatorship · · Score: 1

    ni - ee - ni - ni - gel

  22. Re:RMS was quoted as saying on Linus Torvalds' Benevolent Dictatorship · · Score: 1

    I disagree. They fork the code, not the people working on the code.

  23. Re:The Future of Television on BBC Begins Open-Source Streaming Challenge · · Score: 1

    I was under the impression that they checked for the CRT. How are they detecting a tuner?

  24. Re:The Future of Television on BBC Begins Open-Source Streaming Challenge · · Score: 1

    Of course when they show up at your door or sit outside and see if your TV tuner is actively tuned to broadcasted television channels instead of playing the XBOX or watching DVDs then you can expect to get heavily fined and rightfully so.

    What if you have an LCD TV?

  25. Re:or... for win32bies... on AOL IM 'Away' Message Security Hole Found · · Score: 1

    Gaim works great on windows too!
