  1. Re:Usefulness? on Google Gadgets Join Dashboard Widgets As KDE Plasmoids · · Score: 1

    I view my favourite cartoons in Web Clips.

    Very neat, very easy.

  2. Re:Blender... on Blender 2.46 Released · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You mean, like typing?

  3. Debugger on Targeting PocketPCs With Mono? · · Score: 2, Informative

    How do people debug using MonoDevelop or mono in general ? The debugger in MonoDevelop is already missing/broken for a loooooooooong time. And no, writing to the console doesn't count.

  4. Dark ages... on The World's Languages Are Fast Becoming Extinct · · Score: 1

    Sorry guys, but most comments are just ridiculous.

    When a particular sentence gets a stigma of NewSpeak, many people are suddenly quoting Orwell and 1984. But when a whole language disappears, it's more efficient and therefor good ??

    *Does not compute*

    You just made every security professional drool...

    _NO_ taste. And that's twice in how many weeks ?

    Tss tss tss.

    Kids...

  8. Re:No problem on UK Police Cracking Down on Broadband Theft · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I have an unsecure network, and I really don't care if anyone uses it as long as nothing illegal is performed. How will you know ?
  9. Re:This is the reason closed source is good on Buffer Overflow Found in RFID Passport Readers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    There is no architecture that is secure from a passionate developer armed with time, IDA Pro and an oscilloscope (if needed).

  11. Re:Useless? stupid zealots on Dell Asking ATI For Better Linux Drivers · · Score: 1

    Ugh. Yes :)

  12. Re:Useless? stupid zealots on Dell Asking ATI For Better Linux Drivers · · Score: 3, Insightful

    A few possible advantages of GPL drivers:

    - more stability
    - AIX support
    - proper Xinerama support
    - hardware end-of-life cycle when the user decides it, not when ATI decides it

    I'm sure you can find a few on your own.

  13. Re:ATI Linux on Dell Asking ATI For Better Linux Drivers · · Score: 2, Informative

    Try the same thing on a dual-screen setup with Xinerama enabled.

  14. Excellent on First Robotic Drone Squadron Deployed · · Score: 1, Redundant


    Great way to win the hearts of some Iraqi geeks.

  15. Re:Hey bad astronomer what do you think of this id on What Happened Before the Big Bang? · · Score: 1

    Where's the math ? :)

  16. Re:This won't be useful for a MAJOR market segment on VM Enables 'Write-Once, Run Anywhere' Linux Apps · · Score: 2, Insightful

    What Linux-only games do you want to run on other platforms ??

  17. Re:That's nice and all... on Linux Kernel 2.6.21 Released · · Score: 1

    Not tested I'm afraid.

    Rumour is that the GNU is porting HURD to it though. They think it will enhance their GNU/Linux brand.

    I need more coffee...

  18. Re:UEFI? on Intel's Single Thread Acceleration · · Score: 1

    The 'E' stands for 'Extensible'.

  19. IT IS good news!!! on Neutrino Experiment Restores Standard Model Symmetry · · Score: 0

    You said it yourself: "this will probably open a very exciting period of progress for our understanding of the universe."

  20. Oh yeah... on Apple TV Already Being Hacked · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Now I'm definatly buying one...

    It's cheap, runs OS X and can decode HD. Excellent deal.

  21. You already have them ... on Scientifically Accurate Sci-Fi for High-Schoolers? · · Score: 1

    Get your schoolbooks and party like it's 1899 !!!

    Or, you can read "The Mote in God's Eye" by Larry Niven and Pournelle.

  22. Re:How about some user interface? on New Blender Released · · Score: 3, Informative

    Blender has a good UI. It's just very keyboard based if you want to be very efficient.

  23. Re:Wikipedia? on Grid Computes 420 Years Worth of Data in 4 Months · · Score: 1

    Because Wikipedia contains information, 'facts', figures and data. Place it on P2P and it will be tampered with a lot more then now.

    IMO.

  24. Re:Go go Microsoft on Microsoft Applies To Patent DRM'ed OS Modules · · Score: 1

    Bzzzz ...

    1) Lots of drivers can't be opensourced (IP issues)
    2) The device manufacturers will jump into this new market very quickly.

    Stop dreaming.

  25. Re:In Europe too! on Cisco Lost Rights to iPhone Trademark Last Year? · · Score: 0, Troll

    True. And why would Cisco use it when Apple is negotiating a sweet deal with them !!!

    Good stalling tactics too.
