  1. Surprised? on Amazon Snooping Your Surfing For Targeted Ads? · · Score: 1

    This is as old as cookies itself. Nothing new under the sun, no story.

    -espen

  2. Help, no one wanted to buy my unwashed underwear! on EBay Sellers Seek Management Change · · Score: 1

    It's too many sellers, selling too much shit on eBay -- and of course, there are too few buyers, wanting the bull.

  3. Good on Live to be 1000 Years Old? · · Score: 1

    The elfs are finally revealing their secrets.

  4. Re:Now all we need is a ... on The Universal Off Button · · Score: 1

    Search the internet for terms like "EMP" and "gun". Add some extra watts, and maybe you can stop that annoying traffic outside your house as well.

  5. Not that amazed... on Linux Duracell CPU Load Monitor · · Score: 1

    ...before someone implements a Linux-platform for Duracell-batteries.

  6. Re:Kodak: Traditionally Mismanaged on Kodak To Stop Selling Film Cameras In U.S. · · Score: 1


    Fuji (a WalMart partner)


    Even if WalMart sells and developes consumer grade Fuji film, it doesn't make Fuji a second choice film. Fuji makes professional film (especially slide film), and it's the one and only film for many professionals (art, fashion, nature, weddings, etc.).
    Let's distinguish the home user and the professional market once for all.



  7. People who can't play the guitar allready: on Gibson's Digital Guitar Finally Released · · Score: 1

    Just forget it!

    And people who DO play the guitar well will forget this new piece. My perspective of the future is a personal box with just one button, when pressed does "things" for you -- words like "skill" and "craftmanship" will disappear ;-)

  8. Re:strange people on 24 Hours Of Beethoven's 9th Symphony · · Score: 1

    Art is much about doing things for the first time.
    What it is, isn't really that important.

  9. Re:I was thinking about on Could CDRW Disks Replace Videotapes? · · Score: 1

    Yes, Quentin Tarantino played poker with his stack of punch cards. He lost the game, but his movie got lucky.

  10. IPv6 on Vint Cerf Talks About Internet Changes · · Score: 5, Interesting

    UPv6 is a big challenge. But the fact is that the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) got more addresses than The Republic of China alltogether.

    We probably have to reorganize the whole thing either way, some day.

  11. Re:Fix IQ tests? on Nobel Prizes for Physics Awarded to Smart People · · Score: 1

    Don't you too toss the dice after sex?

  12. The Market Decides on CDMA, Cell Phone Standards And Who "Wins" · · Score: 1

    And nothing else. You are right.

    And now we use DVD instead of VHS, because the market told us to. The consumers do not choose the technology, we just think so.

    And then some troll/facts: US is way behind Europe in telecommunications. Period.

  13. Bully resolution comparisment on 13.8MP Kodak Tops Previously Leaked Canon · · Score: 1

    This article is BS. You can't compare film and digital images because of the different structures: 2D matrix vs. chaotic grains.

    If you really want to compare, compare the same media. That could be:
    - Two digital files(yes, you have to scan the film).
    - Two final enlarged prints.

  14. Re:Data on Humanoid Robot for Spacewalks · · Score: 1

    The robot really do look like Boba Fett. But this project is not fresh news...

  15. It's simple... on The Open Source Cookbook? · · Score: 1

    ...to play with the food. It's even simpler to make this cooking "book":

    frozen pizza

    Done.

  16. The US allready got a stealth ship (if they want). on Russia Declassifies "Stealth" Warship · · Score: 2, Informative

    The ship is in the Skjold class, and is developed in Norway. The US Navy is thinking about buying, several of these. Take a look at
    http://www.knmskjold.org/

    And yes, some of the test systems are running Linux (because I, together with others, developed one of them.) We used RealTime Linux and Qt to make a distributed failsafe system for analyzing payload from optical sensors on the hull.

  17. Novell ConcreteWall - Microsoft CEMeNT on Return Of the Lost Server · · Score: 1
    Now we know where M$ has got is now technology based on -> The Novell ConcreteWall.

    M$ following up with the Microsoft CE, Microsoft Me and Microsoft NT, that works out to be CEMeNT.
