  1. Re:Power Imbalance on ICANN Sneaks In Reserved Names For Existing TLDs · · Score: 2

    Norway (.no) has it this way. One domain for you; provided, of course, that you're a registered corporation/organization. Also, the name you register has to be derived from the name of your organization, i.e. shortened, full, acronymized etc. Makes you wonder about por.no ..

  2. Re:More than email.. on Jedi == Religion In NZ · · Score: 1

    No, fear mine. Please.

  3. Denmark does this too. on France To Tax Blank Computer Media · · Score: 1

    Staring this year, Danes have to pay an additional $0.5 (DKK 4) for each blank CD-R purchased. Protests were launched and people/stores stockpiled pre-tax media, but it looks like the tax is here to stay.

    Personally, I'm ditching CD-R and moving to larger harddrives..

  4. Re:Who allocates country TLDs? on ICANN, new TLDs, and Congress? · · Score: 1

    Try "host -v -l aq" - there are quite a few, e.g. scott.aq.

  5. Re:Damn Their Eyes! on AMD Ends Overclocking On Durons · · Score: 1

    Erhm, looks like i mis-read that post ;]

  6. Re:Damn Their Eyes! on AMD Ends Overclocking On Durons · · Score: 1

    Pretty much everyone is doing it. Sad part is, most lusers believe clock speed is a reasonable indication of processor performance (especially when used in comparison with the competition).

    It sucks though. When you need a 0.5kg heatsink to keep a P4 running it's just ludicrous.

  7. Re:Vinton Cerf's bio: on Vinton Cerf Says Carnivore Source Best Left Closed · · Score: 1

    I guess that makes me trustworthy (NOT!)

  8. Was also broadcast on CNNI TV on School Expels PCs, Installs NCs · · Score: 1

    This story also was broadcast on CNN-I (TV) worldwide. It really warmed my heart to see this kind of story, what with all the Microsoft hoopla they report at other times.

  9. Re:try NetBSD on FreeBSD 3.2-Release is out · · Score: 1

    Certainly - I recently needed to revive an old
    IBM ThinkPad with a random PCMCIA NIC (10mbit).
    The installation floppy instantly detected the
    card, and installing over the network took no
    more than 5 minutes - very painless installation.
    The kernel supports all kinds of PCMCIA devices,
    and there's usually little or no configuration needed.
